of the Brooklyn Board of Education
and one of the most prominent inf1u-

who has voted the Republican ticket
as long as he has voted at all, has
bolted the Taft and Sherman ticket
and will support Bryan. In defending
his action he said today:
"The time has come for the colored
voters to exercise their right of free

enslaved again. There has come
peace to our race in the Southern
States and it will have to remain.
They have got to live at peace with

"The Democratic party is the only
party that has named and elected a
negro to a responsible Office, and that
was the election of James Matthews

Then she asked Michael If he would
