language. We shall point the firms

insults, by giving it to them who
want it. We are forced to have Ne
gro papers, because the white papers
do not represent nor chronicle the
doings of the better element of cur
people. We are not doing this out
OF any personal spite, for there may
be many Of our personal friends who
will be condemned The merchants
who advertise in reliable Negro
journals. are fit men to be consider
ed and those who deliberately refuse
are to be Stunned. The same is
true in the professional line. We are
forced to name as unfair to our peo-
pie the following firms, that say
they do not want your trade: The
Globe Dry Goods Co , Johnson Hatch
