VARDAMAN. THE DON QUIX-
OTE OF YAZOO.

Governor Vardaman of Missis
sippi wants to be United States
senator, in order that he may ap-
pear in the limelight as the prize
fool of his section. Mississippi is
responsible for jaundice, chills and
fever. yellow jack and great many
other pestilential plaques, but the
prince of virulent and mortiferous
contagion is this filth peddler Var
daman. He is ready to out-Dixson
Dixson and beat One-Eyed Tilman
at his own pitchfork exercise. Well,
we would like to see Vardaman
given a sentence of six years at
Washington in the White house. He
would be compelled to jostle with
colored men in public places in
Washington, d. c.; that would
probably knock some gumption and
sense into his darn fool pate. or
spill what little pus accretions he
mistakes for gray matter that is af-
fecting his vision. Vardaman s plat
form and mission to his supporters
is, to stop educating pickanannies,
to establish Jim crowism in the city
of Washington, and to repeal the
thirteenth and fifteenth amend
ments. He declares that he would
rather be the instrument in accom-
plishing these three things than to
WELD the sceptre of King Edward
over the British empire.
Perhaps this british vampire
ought to migrate from the swamps
of Mississippi. He is impregnated
with the miasma of the stagnation
of his section. A residence higher
up might do him good. Contact
with people of sense and breadth
might clarity his vision, but if not
it would at least have the effect to
show how immune some of these
southern red-necks are to decency
and horse sense. TIE Negro is out
and gone on the highway to edu-
cation and manhood. You are too
late, Vardaman, to stop him now
We have not an ounce of objec-
tion to you making all kinds of fools
of yourself in the lime--light. We
would like to see you making an ex-
hibition of your darn fool doctrine
at the headquarters of the nation.
1t would show that education had
not penetrated Mississippi and that
there is much work for the fool
killer to do.

LET Us DO OUR DUTY.

Have you ever thought of how
much it would mean to yourself
and to others if you would just re-
solve to do your duty. Duty is the
debt YOU owe for citizenship, protec-
ton and privilege; if you want
these to be kept free and untram-
meled then we ought to do our duty.
DUTY is a graver term than obliga-
tion and should receive the more al
legiance. The progressive, clear
SIGHTED colored citizens of the city
and county of Denver and Colorado
have important duties TO perform
not next fall only, but now at the
primaries and precinct caucuses.
The selection of officers and the
proper delegates to the county and
state convention, determines the
kind of nominees we may eX-
pect on the ticket. The time to
think of the harvest is after you
have cleared the ground, broken the
soil and planted the seed. II you
don t do your duty before the har-
vest. there will be no harvest. ms
law is as true in politics as 1t IS IN
nature.
We admit we can not do much
alone. There must be numbers act
ing together to secure results. 10
do your duty then is to convince
others of the justice of your position
and the necessity of making their
service and vote count for the party
and the race. Every additional
voter that you interest and secure
to cooperate for the cause you help
forward the movement for justice
to the Negro just so much. There
are three places where your tuli
duty ought to be done, /. e., the prl-
maries. the convention and the
polls. and the one grand insignia OF
your sovereignty at these crucial
stages of citizenship is the ballot,
The citizens with their ballots have
built up this city and state just as
carpenters and masons have built 1t
with their tools, and it remains for
them to keep it in healthy condi-
ton by their continued interest in
the state S welfare. This interest IS
determined by the way and manner
in which you do your duty.

STATE IS ANNIVERSARY.

Last Sunday the subject for at
tention at the Alliance was the
thirtieth anniversary of the admis-
sion of Colorado into the Union.
Miss Florence Whitsell gave brief
sketch of Helen Hunt Jackson and
her ramona. Thos. J. Riley,
our old veteran, spoke of conditions
in Colorado in 1876, the year of ad-
mission, and Rev. Ford presented
the probable condition in 1886,
thirty years from now.
Does it not seem strange that the
Negro does not cultivate the vision
of a prophet or the judgment of a
seer to discern the expansion and
growth that is certain to follow in
the wake of intelligent efforts and
make provisions for it. The ground
where the hall in which he was
speaking was overgrown with weeds
and inhabited with jack rabbits,
less than thirty years ago. Property
was cheap then and lots and houses
could be purchased for an insight
cant sum. Wages were excellent

was visibly agitated, and Pasker decided
that he was in for deep trouble. ''You

But Pasker didn't care to hear any al

magistrates view of the young man con-
duct, and-well, their situation was des-
perate. Mrs. Pasker realized that, too.
"Your honor, Pasker humbly inter
rupted, "if it will satisfy the court, we
shall be glad to consider the award so
made "
The magistrate looked at Mrs. Pasker.
"0h, she said resignedly, "the scandal
that will follow this makes it almost neces-
sary.

journed the court.

II do not care a cent whether Italy lies
beyond the Alps or in Missouri. | do not
