NON-COMMITTAL.

Rumor has it that Mr.. H. Wythe
Lewis, principal of the Randall School
was grossly insulted before his class
by Supervising Principal Baily.
Mr.. Lewis, when interviewed at
his home, refused to say anything,
further than to remark that he en-
tertained the highest respect for DR..
Bailey, and that if anything did take
place in his class room out of the
ordinary. he firmly believed that It
was without sinister motive on the
part of DR.. Bailey.
Mr.. Lewis is regarded by those
high in authority to be one of the best
eighth grade teachers and one of the
finest equipped principals of the Dis
trict. earning his present honored po-
sition by hard work and APPLICATION.
Ii is said by those who have taught
under him, that he is courteous at all
times and is very helpful to them in
suggesting new and up-to-date meth
ods as to teaching and school manage
ment. That he not only visits their
class rooms, but when time permits,
teaches in them
1t has been remarked by some of
them that more than once they have
been impressed with his kindly con-
sideration for the aged and younger
teachers.
1t was said by the critical DR.
Chancellor, in the presence of our es-
teCmed principal of the Armstrong
School that Mr.. Lewis preparation
and school management were unsur-
passed. To another principal, DIR

The credit proposition is
a gigantic one to handle.
We've studied it for years,
gradually eliminating the
disagreeable features, until
our New Credit System is
the most equitable that can
be devised. Old fashioned
business methods have been
discarded. We've come to
the point where you simply
tell us to charge what you
buy. Your account IS the
same as at your grocer's,
except that we ask you to
pay a regular weekly or
monthly amount as you're
able. Keep it in good stand

whenever YOU like.

be wished that the action of the Tex
as Negro Republican Voters, a body
said to number 10000 members. in
announcing their independence from
the Republican party, and pledging
themselves to Bryan. may mark the
beginning of an era of progressive
enlightenment, with this years action
as first step"
Hitherto, as a rule, the Negro al
lowed the Republican to handle him
as voting cattle, do his thinking, and
deliver" him. To be a Negro was
equivalent to be a Republican, that is,
a pariah of the Republican machine.
The declaration of the Texas Negro
Republicans turns over a new leaf-it
is hoped.
The declaration sets forth that the
organization henceforth proposes TO
sustain the political party which will
best enhance the economic conditions
Of the country The conclusion that,
therefore, the Texas Negro Republi-
cans will cast their vot5 for Bryan
would seem to be false oile from
given premises. Indeed. not only is
not Bryan's party calculated 10 Ell
hance the economic conditions of the
country, nor yet, even if in some re
mote way Bryan'S election would ease
up things, is his the party that tends
most towards the promotion OF the
country's welfare. Compared with
the Socialist Labor party, whose tick
ct the Texas Negro Republicans will
find in full swing in their state, Bry-
ans party is not in it for soundneSs.
But that matters not. Not by leaps
does progress march 1t marches
from step to step. The Texas Negro
Republicans have taken a first, the
necessary first step, That step was to
shake off the yoke with which the Re
publican party replaced the yoke i
took off the Negroes neck when Lin
coin proclaimed them free from theii
rebel masters. The next steps will bt
, easier, nor should they be long III be
. ing taken.
Once on the path of progress, th'
Negro can not long remain out of tht
Socialist camp. Well may the So
cialist camp make ready to receive
this division of the army of the pro
letariat that has been wandering il
the wilderness since 1905.

ONE CAUSE OF NEGRO VICE.
Good and bad Negroes have often
been forced in cities to live in the
closest proximity to each other, in
deed in the same room, because Of the
high rents charged the poor Negroes
! have often suffered more than the
white poor and Negro neighborhoods
have frequently been imposed upon.
In more than one large city, the dis
, tinctively Negro neighborhoOd IS the
same as, or next to, that district which
; seems, by consent of the civil author
tiles, to be given up to vice. This
has been most notably true III the

years a large proportion OF the Ne

city. While | am not disposed to
minimize the extent of Negro vice,
vet | have been convinced from care
full observation in several larg eCitleS
that the reputation which many Negro
neighborhoods have for vice is not
due entirely to the Negroes them
selves, but due largely, and often
chiefly, to the fact that the Negroes
are forced into neighborhoods which
are the headquarters for the vice OF
whites. Their ignorance and their
poverty, and often their implicit faith
in the white race, keep many of them
from open complaint. Here they en-
ioy a kind of social equality with
the lowest class of whites, who set
! the pace for them in vice and crime
and here many of the children of poor
but honest Southern Negroes sgo to
school in vice and become expert in
| the ways of the underworld, led often

of the shrewder Negroes learn how
to take advantage of the criminal life
of their own and the white race, and
often grow rich. dealing in politics
and vice, adding to their own degra-
