What was implied in being on the

First A decided denunciation of the

Second, Believingly to choose God as

Third, Cheerful obedience to his com

Fifth, a conservation of all we possess

Christian was a soldier of Christ and
his life a warfare, and having to con-
tend with powerful enemies in order to
succeed, he must be clad in the right
eousness of Jesus Christ. He contended
not against flesh and blood but against
principalities and powers IN high places,
the last enemy that he must meet was
death, the king of terrors.
If he succeeded IN the whole warfare
Of life and failed in this battle with the
last enemy all would be lost, and lost

more than conquerors with the last en-
emy. Indeed it was a great day with
the church, and those who missed it

CALL ISSUED.

At the meeting of the local Afro
American Council held recently at the
Douglass Building, 726 West Walnut
street. a large number of cOlored vot-
ers met to discuss the national political
outlook and indorse the efforts Of the
Washington negroes in opposition to
the nomination OF Secretary Taft for
the presidency. They heard the first
reading of a call Of meeting of the
National Afro American Council on
June 70 to 28 at Baltimore, Md
The call was read by the Rev. L. q.
Jordan, corresponding secretary Of the
Council, and IS addressed to the Ne
groes of the country, urging them to
organize and send delegates, and calls
upon all organizations to be represent
ed at his meeting to discuss with pru-
dence, wisdom, patience and intelligence
,he best method to overcome the dan
gers menacing what civil and political
rights the Negroes have left A plea
IS made for unity, asking all factions
to get together and make a united at
tack upon the enemy of the Negroes
right to life, liberty and property in this
Land of the Free" Speeches were
made scoring President Roosevelt and
Secretary Taft, and indorsing the SEN
timent of the Washington meeting: The
Negro race is without comprehension
Of its political power"
The following signed statement was
given out:
Through the various local Councils
and organization in sympathy with our
national work, stretching from Califor-
MIA to Florida, we are prepared with
the aid Of our white friends to with
stand and defeat any candidate the Re
publican party may nominate in 1908
The Negroes have fought with the Re
publican party in war and during the
forty years of our freedom have been
worshiping the wraiths Of the sainted
Lincoln, Sumner and Grant, and blindly
voting the ticket, hoping against hope
for the protection promised by the wal
amendments.
Our interests, civil and political, de
mand that we cast our ballot for can
didate who will recognize our rights
along with other American citizens. We
oppose in toto the nomination of the
Hon. W. H. Taft or any other man
who brands us as a race Of criminals
and traitors in the face of our loyalty
from Lake Erie to San Juan Hill; such
men have forfeited their right to either
our sympathy or support.
