Mr.. Dancy's public career Is in
teresting and unique. He was twice
appointed Collector Of Customs at
the port Of Wilmington, N. c., thrice
elected editor Of the Star of Zion, the
official organ Of the 100000 COM
municants Of the A. M. fE. Zion
church and since 1902 has broken all
records In point Of efficiency and
length Of service as Recorder Of
Deeds, holding at the same time the
edftorship of the Zion Quarterly, to
which he was triumphantly re-elect-
ed at the General Conference of his
church last May at Philadelphia.
For fully three decades Mr.. Dancy
has been actively identified with the
development Of the church Of James
Varfck, and has been one Of the pri-
mary tnstrumentalities that have
brought that body up to it's present
high estate. His constructive leadI
ershiD has been potent in expanding
1t from a sectional organization,
forming scarcely more than fringe
along the Atlantic seaboard, into q
truly national body, extending from
ocean to ocean, from the great lakes
to the Gulf and stretching forth It's
hand to Africa and the islands Of the
sea. 1t Is worthy Of note that when
Mr.. Dancy's present term as editor
OF the Zion Quarterly expires, he will
have rounded out twenty-five years
Of service as an editor of the pub
Hcations Of his church. There Is
well-founded rumor af1oat that Mr..
Dancy, in his desire to be known as
twenty-five year man." would
have no serious objections to making
his career symmetrical by rounding
out term Of twenty-five years as
Recorder Of Deeds. And this may
be no joke, for the chairman Of the
Speakers Bureau admit freely that
MIR. Dancy led the Negro orators on
the stump and was asked for more
frequently than any other Spell
binder by the race throughout the
country. He spoke upon every con-
Ceivable occasion, travelling thous-
ands OF miles, making long and short
Jumps through all Of the pivotal,
states, and was personally compli-
mented by both President Roosevelt
valuable character Of bis work from
the pre-convention campaign to the
day Of the November election. Mr..
Dancy's much-abused state of North
Carolina elected three Repvb b1ican

Indiana in this respect, the H3osier
