ROOSEVELT AND TAFT.

The Planet has not supported Col.
Roosevelt. 1t has not allied himself
with his supporters. 1t has taken an
impartial stand and discussed the
situation in calm and impartial
manner. We are Of the opinion that
colored men are just as much justi-
fled in supporting Hon. Theodore
Roosevelt as they are In supporting
Hon. William Howard Taft.
One dish of crow is about as &C
ceptable as the other. President
Taft lacks backbone and ex-President
Roosevelt has more than his share
Of that important part of the human
vertebrae.
Colored men, who are supporting
the one should have no criticism to
pass upon the other. President Taft
has appointed colored men to high
and honorable positions and ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has done the same
thing. President Taft has openly
recognized the color line" in his
official relationship and he should
not have done so, in fact could not
have done so without violating his
oath Of office.
Col Roosevelt did not draw the
color line" in the open and fragrant
manner as practiced by President
Taft, but he lessened the number of
Federal appointments in the South
land without drawing it. Ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt stands by his friends,
when his blood is up" whether they
be North or South, East or West,
black or white. President Taft Is an
apologist, SO afraid Of public senti-
ment that he will do wrong in order
to avoid its fury.
Ex-President Roosevelt has the
nerve to meet the issue squarely and
in this respect, becomes, the man
on horseback" the public idol, the
kind Of a leader that enthusiastic
men like to follow. A man of this
character is pardoned for his faults,
almost before he has craved pardon.
Still, we make no secret in saying
that he Is the most dangerous char
acter that this country has ever pro-
duced and is destined to prove a
veritable political meteor, endanger-
ing both business and prosperity for
many years to come. AS between
him and President Taft, there is but |
little to choose for the average voter,
although business interests would
select the latter, because of his con-
servatism which may in a measure
atone for his lack Of vital principles.
To a people contending for funda-
mental rights denied, President Taft
invites disgust and incites contempt.
We do not believe that ex-President
Roosevelt was given a square deal"
1T Chicago. We believe that on a
'air Showdown" he won there.-The
Richmond Planet, July 20, 1912.

RACE HAS HIGH IDEALS.

Pres. Taft recently said that "the
Colored Race has high ideals" That's
Just why they are supporting Roose-
Welt in whom they realize a cham
pion Of right, not an apologist like
Pres. Taft, who has sustained the
bred Scott decision by refusing to ap-
point Negroes to offices wherever 1t
was Objectionable to white men, and
who by the appointment Of Southern
Confederates to the Supreme Bench
has denied the Negroes their Con-
stitutional Rights. Roosevelt never
closed the door Of hope in the face
Of the Negro.

posterity. Our greatest men have
held these positions, and today their
offspring is proud Of their inheritage

This issue begins the third year of
our existence. We thank those who
have aided our efforts, hoping to re-
ceive your support in the future.
We have noticed that many publ
cations that freely boost everything
have been Of short duration. Publish
ing a Negro newspaper is a hard
proposition, and the Editor who at
tempts to satisfy all factions, finally
gets what he deserves, the contempt
of all. We are proud Of our paid up
subscribers, and we respect the rights
of delinquents, but we will continue
to run our publication as a business
proposition, without fear or favor re-
specting the rights Of every one and
to the best interest of all.

YOUR GRAY HAIRS
QUICKLY VANISH
If You Use A Harmless Remedy Made
From Sage.


A feeling of sadness accompanies
the discovery of the first gray hairs
which unfortunately are looked upon
as heralds of adva ing age. Gray
hair, however handsome it may be,
makes person look old. Aside from
the good impression youthful ap-
pearance makes on others, simply
knowing that you are looking fit"
gives one courage to undertake and
accomplish things. So why suffer the
handicap of looking old on account of
gray hairs, when simple remedy will
give your hair youthful and color and
beauty ina few days time?
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as a color restorer and
scalp tonic as we'll. Our grandmothers
used Sage Tea" for keeping their
hair dark, soft and luxurant. In
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy We have an ideal preparation of
Sage, combined with Sulphur and 9TH
er valuable remedies for dandruff,
itching scalp and thin, weak hair that
is split at the ends or constantly COM
ing out. A few applications of this
valuable remedy will bring back the
color, and in a short time it will re-
move every trace of dandruff and
greatly improve the growth and ap-
pearance of the hair
Get a fifty cent bottle from your
druggist today, and notice the differ
ence in your hair after a few days

THAT PEACH

How to Combat Pests Of the
Crop

Atlanta, April mature has been
exceedingly kind to Georgia's fruit
crop during the past season. In ma
ny sections of the country the peach
crop has been entirely destroyed.
Georgia has never had brighter pros
poets for fruit crops of all kinds than
at present. The peach and plum are
in full bloom in many sections of the
state and every orchardist should in
terest himself in important insects
and diseases that tend to make fruit
giving improbable.
The two most important pests are
curculio and brown-rot The one is
an insect and the other a disease. EX-
periments conducted in Georgia by
the department of entomology and bu-
reaus of entomology and plant pathol-
ogy have demonstrated that these
pests can be controlled simply a nd
economically.

familiar to every one that a descrip-
ton is hardly necessary The adult
is somewhat similar in appearance to
the famous Mexican cotton boil wee-
vii. 1t spends the winter about the
orchard, along fence rows, and is par
ticularly fond of wooded places where
leaves and pine straw afford a protec-
tive covering. With return of the
sunshine of March and April, the cur
iculio again becomes active, deserts
winter quarters and goes in search OF
food. They are ready to puncture the
young peaches and plums just as soon
as the blooms drop. They not only
feed on the young fruit, but deposit
egsg which in very few days hatch
out into the very familiar grub stages
which are responsible for the real
damage to the fruit. The grub feeds
on the inside of the fruit until it ma
lures, retires and goes into the
ground and there transforms into the
beetle.
Our discoveries show that two
sprayings with arsenate of lead at the
rate of one and half to two pounds
to fifty gallons of water give almost
complete control of the insect. The
first spraying should be made about
ten days after the petals drop. Sec
ond, about three weeks later.
In order to prevent any damage to
the foliage or fruit, it is best to add
about three pounds of stone lime o

BETTER SERVICE

On July 18th the Mesa rural deliv- cry system will be extended to cover d much wider area than heretofore. There will be two carriers instead of one. The new route will be known as Mesa E. r. D. No. 2, and will sup ply mail to many who now have to make regular trips to town to get their mail. Postmaster Newell has been working for long time to se- cure this route and only recently succeeded in convincing the depart ment that it was an absolute neces- sity. At present the carrier had to cover twenty-five miles daily. and in the summer this is quite task for both man and beast. The division of the route, with the added territory. will make it much lighter on the car riers and what is of the most inn portance, will give the rural popula- tion better facilities for securing their mail promptly. The mail will not be carried on Sundays.

 The first is thrilling western scene and depicts young Mexican couple eloping. pursued by their angry par ents All are on horseback and they ride over mountain and desert before arriving at the parsons home. There they are married just a few minutes before caught by their pursuers.
