ENDORSEMENT FOR Mr.. TAFT
COLORED CITIZENS OF OHIO
FAVOR HIS CANDIDACY.
Reports Indicate That Secretary
Will Receive Widespread Support
Of Negro Voter.

Because of the reported attitude OF the
colored people on national issues interest
is felt in reports that are being received
by friends of Secretary Taft in Washing
ton indicative of widespread support of
him as a presidential candidate among the
negroes generally. In Ohio especially
Secretary Taft's cause among the colored
men has made great Roadway. it is stated
by those close to the Taft campaign man
agement. and today copies were received
here OF resolutions adopted by the Attacks
Republican Club of Cleveland. Ohio. the
leading political organization OF colorec
citizens in Cuyahoga county. The resolu-
tons adopted are as follows:
Whereas it is clearly apparent that the
best interests of the plain people of the
country require continuation OF the
general policies of the present national
administration and speedy completion
menced by President Roosevelt: and
whereas Secretary William H. Taft OF
Ohio more truly than any other aspirant
for presidential honors represents all that
is best in the achievements and hopes OIL
the Roosevelt administration: and where
as the best interest of the colored clti-
zens of Cuyahoga county. Ohio. like that
Of the colored citizens of the country at
large. is indissolubly bound up with the
best interests of all the people Of the en-
tire country without regard to race. color
or creed: Therefore, he it resolved. That
we, the members OF the Attacks Repub-
lican Club of Cleveland. CuyahOga coun-
ty. Ohio in regular m Getting assembled
do pronounce it the sense of this organ
izstion: % That we view with great dis
pleasure the efforts made and being made
here and elsewhere to mslead the colored
voter and to becloud his political vision
by an appeal to passion and tending to
raise a false issue by questionable meth
DDS as tending to the political seSre2a-
ton Of the colored voter without adequate
cause. CD That We strongly indorse the
candidacy of Secretary Taft and publicly
announce. our approval of the principles
and policies for which he stands.
Other Endorsements in Ohio have. ii is
said. been frequent Among the Or
CARNATIONS OF negroes which have re-
Gently Endorsed Secretary Tafts candi-
dacy are the Markbreit Club. the Built
man Club and the Lincoln Republican
Club Of Cincinnati. The Hamilton. Ohio
negroes have also Endorsed the Secretary.
Among the newspapers which have re-
Gently declared for Secretary Taft are
the Cleveland Journal and the Hopkins
vile. KY. Morning News, which latter
Is the only daily paper in the world run
for and by the negro race. The editor Of
the News. Phil II. Brown. is a warm
Taft supporter.
