Negro National Delegates.

lltlcal status of the southern Ne

The Negro delegate who will sell
his vote TO" cash, at the next
national convention, will be re
tired into oblivion and execrated
by whites and blacks alike.
If the Southern delegates are
considerate, and line up with the
probable successful candidate on
principle alone. and with only
the end in view of lettering their
race conditiC n, it can be relied
upon that that candidate will see
to it that lily whiteism will not
be permitted to negate the rights

chance OF success, or candidates
whose candidacy is the result Of
sp tie and spite alone. The in
terest of the race as whole, and
Of such as live in the South in
particular, is too great to permit
our delega es TO be "a party to the
work of fractional spite. There
is no reason for fl ttering away
your strength for paItry cash.
Support that candidate who
promises more for the moral |, ed
vocational, industrial ard political
future of the race ir the South,
and whose cand dacey is not
propped up on the pyre of geld.
We again remind the Negro
delegates, and especially those
from the South, that on their
action, on their support rests d
mighty responsibility. Rapidly
shaping conditions and align
ments make it apparent that the
contest is narrowing down to
one or two men, and one man

The editor!
They bury hins out in the grass
"old Squires has passed away
He never seemed to get along"
Is what tine people say!
The editor!
And as he sleeps the sleep of death
The natives. aS Of yore,
Send all their printing out OF town
Just as they did before!
The editor!
