Mr.. Jno. H. Dillingham;, has been ap-
pointed asst. janitor of the Senate. Mr..
Dillingham; is classed as a stand-pat-
ter, but really we think he was on
the fence-in the last campaign. Well,
they may have placed him to hold him
to the party. But he is a good fell
low, and some say that the job was
forced on him.
Some politicians seek Jobs and
never fInd them. others can't get out

We are proud to acknowledge the
receipt of a handsomely bound edi
ton containing the Grafton of Hon
James H. Wolff, Past Dept. Comman
der of the G.. A. r. State of Massa
chusetts, delivered before the City
Government and Citizens of Boston
in Faneuil Hall, on the 134th Ami
versary Of the Declaration of the U
s. July 4th, 1910-Subject:
The Building Of the Republic.
This edition contains the Bibliogra
ply of Boston Fourth of July orations
from 1888 to 1910. Every Negro
should read this Grafton. It ranks
well with those of his predecessors,
and we quote his solution of the
Negro Problem:
Americans Of every class are en-
titled to impartial treatment in the
execution Of the laws of the land.
When the question is asked, What
shall We do with the negro" the
simple answer Is, Give him fair
chance in the race of life"
Race hatred and prejudice once
existed against the Celtic race, but it
lost its force in the great onward
march Of Americanism. The same
fate will overtake the prejudice
against the negro in this country;
the efforts he is putting forth In the
industrial and business world will de.
stroy It."
Hon. ]. H. Wolff was selected by
Mayor Fitzgerald after President Taft
declined on account of previous en-
gagements. First time ever done in
the history of Boston. Done by Irish
American and Democratic Boston
Traveller. May 81, 1910.

the watchdogs are on some, who do
not realize the power Of the Negro
vote. We have no doubt that John
P. Nash will make good. Legislation
has been proposed which would affect
the Negro greatly in this State, and
we need friends at all times. Last
week certain hotel refused Negro
drink and there are places in st.
Paul which have treated our women
disgracefully during the summer sea-
son-refusing them service at soda
fountains. No one appointment will
change conditions.-Giveu us justice.
