OUR 81 INNER VISITORS.

Of the annual invasion Of New York by
our tropical and sub-tropical fellow
Americans from the central and south
ern republics. The city is never uncom-
fortabIy warm for them, even when it
does its dog-days worst, for they know
how to live in a hot climate, and wisely
bring the knowledge with them.
They are met early in the day. the
senoras. and senoritas, cool and merry,

HIS MESSAGE TO NEGRO VOTERS
Head of Lincoln League Warns Them
Against Political Desertion.
, the Editor OF The Tribune

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: All over the country the Afro
American Independent Political League.
which supported Bryan and the Democratic
party candidates at the last election, is be-
ginning active organization work TO swing
Z big negro vote TO the Democratic Con-
gress nominees this fall. I am at q loss
10 know what they can hope TO gain for
the country or the negro people by such
4 course. The loss of the House TO the
Republicans would mean an obstruction Of
all needed legislation and would prevent
the administration from carrying out the
policy OF protection 10 the political rights
of the negroes
The Democratic party wants the amend
ments TO the national Constitution repealed
so that the negroes would stand politically
where they did before the reconstruction.
This would do away with the negro voter
as factor in politics In this country. The
independent league blndly indorsss all Of
this by its action.
The independent league has many good
and influential men in it's ranks. They
nave already called a national convention
70 meet in Atlantic City to further plans
OF organization. The results of such a
meeting win be farreaching. At this time
they are. ! believe, to mark out carefully
the close Congress districts in which they
are to do active work. Indiana. New Jer-
say, Ohio. New York and West Virginia
are to receive special attention.
on the 18TH inst convention OF this
league Is TO be held in this city 10 oppose
President Tafts Southern policy and TO
elect delegates To the Atlantic City con-
vention. Criticism of the Southern policy
Of the President by negro independents
can have no good basis They should not
resort TO unfair means to influence negro

OF her chauffeur, Miss Ring soon had

Her first public appearance with her

All went well until the crowd OF
excited onlookers apparently got on
Miss Rings nerves, and TO make q
bad matter worse, little stray dog
persisted In obstructing the motor

tic efforts TO avoid the little animal,
and in doing so, her motor got beyond
her control, and with a gasp from Its
occupant, the chair went careening
