JUDGE L. W. COLLINS.

His Candidacy for Governor Upheld
by a Weil-known Minneapolitan.
Minneapolis, Mimi, June, Is, 1904.
Home conditions and what it means
to us Afro-American citizens of this
particular LOCALITY.
While looking through the politi cal
lines we must observe what is meant
for our good, and carefully avoid what
is bad; we must observe cautiously,
studiously, and without prejudice, as
it is studiOus. We still believe the in
terests Of this country, state and this
particular city have been best served
by the Republican party. We can
easily see our duty, but to perform it
the conditions of to-day require us to
vote intelligently and avoid any re-
action. We should also vote for the
interests of the community in which
we live. It is the poorest kind of poll
tics to- vote yourself out OF a vote.
Support the one that the intelligent
citizens are unanimously supporting,
unreservedly in this political campaign
for the next Governor of Minnesota,
man in every sense OF the word, a
man which means something to us as
citizens, man whose record OF sew
enteen years upon the Supreme bench
has been what it SHOULD have been,
as the record will show. @Z
One fact in Judge Collins life. il
there was nothing else to refer to-,
should entitle him to the support, ad-.
miration and respect of every Afro
American voter in the State of Mime
sofa. In the statutes of our state
there is law in substance providing
that no person shall be excluded from
hotels, public conveyances, restau-
rants, etc, because of race, creed or
color, or previous condition of seryi-
tude.'' ~. .5zsss
In 1898 an Afro-American man in
Duluth brought an action because he
had been denied receiving refresh
ments he demanded, because of his
color. The action was carried to the
Supreme Court, and because the par
ticular place in which he had de-
manded refreshments was not mem
toned in the statute, q majority of the
Court held he had no use Of action.
Justice Collins, in dissenting opin-
ion, held that his rights were included
in the words contained il the statute
