DECENT CONSIDERATION DE
PENDS UPON INTELLIGENT
VOTING.

The near approach of the city cleo
tion has set the tongues of interested
politicians agoing. They should not
be alone in interest in our city's af-
fairs. Let all voters, women as well
as men, study up the import of the va
rious movements, and watch the shift
ing scenes SO that they may exert
the greatest amount of power over
the result. The time has passed when
the race can be sold and delivered,
if only it will interest itself in the
elections. We are reminded of the
reliability of politicians by the state
ment made of one who poses as a Re-
publican and has held Office as Re-
publican (also as a Democrat, by the
way), that he is now seeking to start
a Dem )cratic newspaper. May Pro
vidence forefend. The Democrats
are our political opponents, but de-
serve no such harsh fate as to have
this cmiscienceIess, double-dealing po-
litical mountebank hanging on to them
like the plague. The only way to keep
such cattle as this from selling the
peorle and promising to deliver the
vote is to be intelligent over the is
sues and go to the polls yourself. No
gool citizen needs to be hauled to
the polls election day any more than
he needs to be hauled to his work.
No good citizen needs pay for doing
his full duty. No good citizen will
sit at home and let politician act as
his proxy, such as onefellow we know
whose only recommendation to an ap-
pointment was that he would do dirty
work that no other negro in town
could be persuaded to do That is dis
gusting, and no race can be respected
that will let itself be preyed on by
harpies who are police stool pigeons
out of Office and turn-coat hypocrites
and flunkies in Office.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1910-02-12

lawyers for other work have no in

the negroes succeeded in winning the

court, abstract of records, briefs, bills

they have won this far, the Colorado
negro ought to have Jim Crow cars
and Jim Crow privileges. Not one
