In Uncle Sans Service

Under the kindly fostering
care OF the Republican party,
that wiped the stain OF slavery
from the Stars and Stripes, with
the blood of statesmen. the colo
red race has established a worlds
record, in the progress of civil
cation and enlightened, aggressiv
citizenship. Today colored men
and women, TO the number OF 49,
.987 are occupying positions in the
Government servise, under Re
publican administration, and draw
in the aggregate the sum of S.
032,355 annually from the public
treasury. They r to be found
in every position from that OF
common laborer to that of Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plen-
ipotentiary. Their salaries range
from 5000 to $4,000 a year, the
latter sum being paid to our col
ored Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary to
Haiti.
The intelligent Negro does
not worship false gods. He is
thoroughly familiar with the con-
ditiQn Of his brothers in the South
where Democracy is4in the sad
die. He knows that at heart,
the leaders OF the Democratic
party do not wish his association
in politics, but only hopes to use
him and to ~disgruntle him against
the Republican party, in order
that they may, without benefit to
him, be elevated into power. 1t
does not need the declaration
from the Democratic party. that
it is a white mans party, to con-
vince the Negro with any brains
that his interests and future well
fare and that of his race, lie in
the hands Of the Republican
party.

With defeat staring it il the

Peerless One Democracy is
struggling to win in this present
campaign, with the Negro vote

seems to be the browning climax

Perhaps few colored people are
aware that the number OF Afro
Americans in the service OF the
Army and Navy-has more than
doubled in the last four years,
under a Republican administra-
ton. Their aggregate pay has
been increased from S3,0O0,000 in
1904 to more than 100000 in
1908.

the organic law the declarations
that proclaim his civil and poll
ticial rights, and it believes today
that his noteworthy progress in
intelligence, industry, and good
citizenship has earned the respect
and encouragement of the Nation.

college sports which have fallen into dis
favor by the faculty.
Ore is in holding athletic teams here
for the drudgery of Easter vacations.
Tho track baseball and rowing teams
are all here, and all but the crew are
working twice a day. 1t is generally be-
lieved that this will be the last year in
which this will be done. because it tends
to make the athletes stale.
The faculty will not allow so many
athletic sports to be scheduled for New
Haven City another year. President Had
ley and prominent members of the facul-
ty came out with statement two weeks
ago TO the effect that Yale did not favor
reducing athletic sports because they
tended to keep students in New Haven
on Saturdays instead of going to New
York City. The faculty later awoke to
the fact that the Yale nine is scheduled
to play every Saturday this month in
New York. and the students who want
to see the team play must go to New
York for that purpose.

world will be directed toward it for
another reason, for it is to be the try

Among the starters who will try for

who have been well up in previous B.

Il Neither of them is looked upon as
dangerous, however, as it is believed
