We certainly have no fight to
make on any colored citizen for
anything. Our mission is rather
to boostand not to encourage strife.
We would have all to rise. There
is now too much prejudice preva-
among our peple as one against
the other and we have yet to learn
the great principle of give and take.
Our people sometimes work against
themselves and get sore at other on
the assumption that they are doing
something against them. 1t is case
where the guilty flee when no one
pursueth." We will at all times
snatch the mask off of such, on the
ground of public good as such cit
izenship is not desirable nor does
it rebound to the credit of our
people. Be whatever you are; do
not sail under false colors, and ask
no quarter from the enemy. He
who runs may read these lines
as he runs.

NOT To MAKE SPEECHES
THE PRESIDENT WILL NOT PAR
TICIPATE IN NEW YORK FIGHT.

a.
Fresh denial Of the most authoritative
nature is given to stories that the President
is likely to take an active part In the New
York campaign by making speeches or
writing letters In behalf of Hughes, the re.
publican nominee. =
The President is known to have the
strongest sort of desire for the success OF
the republican nominees, and to regard the
election of Hearst a danger to be greatly
feared. Personally he was in favor of the
nomination of Hughes long before the re-
publican convention met. He feels that no
ADLER stronger man could have been Sc
lected. He is wiling. to give any assistance
he possibly can in a d:gnified way, but he
will not depart from the traditions Of the
Presidency as to campaign speeches or
party activity of that sort.
Strong efforts have been made to have
the President break all precedents and
jump right into the New York fight his
friends declaring that if he would do SO
his influence would be SO great as to insure
the election of Hughes.
There is no question that the advice of
the President as to- the conduct of the
campaign will be freely given and eagerly
accepted. He Is generally recognized by
the reform, independent element :of the
New York. republicans the natural leader
in New York affairs, and little is done
without first consulting him.

Commission Adjourned Inquiry to
This City for November 26.

NEW YORK, October 6.-The congress
sional commission which has been investi-

matter by the Post Office Department de-
cided today to adjourn the hearing to
Washington, where representatives Of the
Periodical Publishers Association will be
heard on November %.
After the adjournment E. C. Madden.
third assistant postmaster general, said:
Il think that beyond question the Post
Office Department has established it's case
namely, that the present laws regulating
second-class mail matter are out of date
ard practically nullified by present prac-
tees beyond the control of the department
as now equipped, and that a real and
effective enforcement would be injurious to
the publishing interests. There are many
publications now, enjoying the privilege of
the second-class rate in violation of the
intent and purposes of statutes, to the detri-
ment Of the postal revenues amounting to
millions annually. From the hearings the
correctness of this is practically conceded
by the publishers themselves. They seem
to be substantially agreed that reforma-
ton of the laws is imperative. Just what
view the committee will take or what ac-
ton it will propose. If any, no one at this
time can forecast" -.
