WEIGHED AND FOUND
WANTING

With such authorities as Senator
Gore, Of Oklahoma, Harper 'sWeek-
" and The Cincinnati Enquirer
viewing with alarm the growth Of
Progressive sentiment and warning
their party against over-confidcncc,
it would seem that the ostrich-likc
leaders Of the Republican party
would take their heads out Of the
sand and stop trying to laugh the
Bull Moose case out of Court.
An analysis Of the vote in Yer
mont shows that out party is going
to be a potent factor in the 30
vcmbcr election and that any one
who thinks to the contrary has
another thought coming. When q
month-old party can 90 into such q
r0ck-rjbbcd Republican State as
Vermont and accomplish such re.
suits as did the Progrc$sivcs, that
party is not the joke that the Re
publicans think, or pretend t.
think, it is. The Chicago conven
ton, the Vermont vote, and the re
ception Of Col, Roosevelt in Massa
chusctts and Connecticut, in Mis-
|Souri and the DakotaS and, in fact
wherever he has spoken, is signif
cant Of his popularity among the
masses Of voters, as the Enquire,

NIP IT IN THE BID

In our news columns announce
ment is made of the celebration of
the tiftieth anniversary of the pro-
mitigation of the Emancipation
Proclamation by the National
Emancipation Commemorative So
ciety at Washington on the 22nd
inst. Among other things the so
ciety proposes to make itself per-
manent and to hold annual meet
ings in the future.
| Unless the society has objects in
view other than those set forth in
its announcement, The Advocate is
Of the opinion that it had as well
disband after having carried out
its primary purpose-the celebra-
ton of the fiftieth anniversary Of
freedom-for the simple reason
that it does not propose to do
thereafter, anything that is not now
being attempted and, in some cases,
done by older organizations.
Every one of the, fields it's announ-
cement leads one to think it pro-
poses to enter is already occupied.
For education there are the Ma
tional Association of Teachers in
Colored Schools and the Negro Ma
tional Educational Congress.
There are three national organiza-
tons for economic advancement !;
six associations for professional adj
ivancement; two national aSsocia-
tons for political advancement !;
two in the interest of women; two
for the general advancement of
the race and one for improving
social conditions. All these claim
to be national in scope and most
of them are doing actual, con-
structive work.
This being the situation, would
it not be the better part of wisdom
not to multiply organizations but
rather to join and help push for
ward those already in being? Of
course. another society means more
offices to fill, increased opportuni-
ties to be named president, vice
president and what not, but these
considerations are Of minor impor-
lance. There are already too many
such officers of societies great in
name only.
The advocate. [volume] (Charleston, W. Va.) 1901-1913, 1912-09-05

must look for the complete eman-
clpatlon of the colorcd people in
this country. The colored voters
will have to be made fully aware
of the danger that surrounds the
few rights that they enjoy at pres
ent, and it behooves them to be
watchful lest at some unguarded
moment, on the eve of a great po-
litical conflict between our friends
and newly made acquaintance and
our enemies, we. by an impolitic or
mexpedient move, imperil the sue
cess of our only political friends.
"That the Progressive movement
is strong in this section cannot be
doubted, but when the colored vote
Is counted there is no doubt that it
will be found to be as loyal to the
Republican party as it has always
proved ITSELF
= And so. the colorei vote when
counted, will be found to be as 10y
al to the Republican party as it has
always proved itself. The Advocate
will give Mr.. Mitchell any amount
OF space he may require to state
his reasons for uttering such a
prophecy. although it is of the be-
lief that Mr.. Mitchell is expressing
q hope rather than a conviction.
How could it be otherwise?

Convention. met in Chicago this

Of such life from, among us leaves

FOR PRINCIPLE, NOT For
price

|: 1t might be well to state here
and now for the benefit of those of
the race who are waiting for the
highest bid to decide under what
banner they will cast their lots in
the battle of ballots in November,
that they had as we'll eliminate
from their calculations, from
among their list Of prospective
bidders the Progressive party, for
there is nothing doing.' The
Progressive party welcomes volun-
teers, Of every race, Of every color,
lot every creed, but it resolutely
turns its back upo;i mercernaries,
knowing that their services are
purchasable, their allegiance is not
fixed, and to political principles
they are total strangers.
Relying upon the righteousness
OF their cause and confident of the
business of their platform, the Pro
gressives have buckled on their ar
NOR, entered the lists and challeng-
| ed the champions of the vested in
terests. They expect to win. as is
natural, but if they should lose,
the sting of defeat will be temper
ed by the knowledge that they
quilted themselves like men who
fought for princi pie and not for
a price.

Mr.. Mitchell's telegram to the

The action Of Col. Roosevelt in

Moose convention has not so far
materially injured his interests in
this section. Unless there is some
concerted action made by the COL

to resent such action, the sentiment
for Roosevelt will not be affected

Register J. c. Napier, announcing
the neport of the committee on place
of next meeting, painted some lumf-
nous pictures symbolizing the execu-

the various cities competing for the
next convention as suitors for the
maidens hand. After listening SYM
pathetically to all, she (the commit
tee) finally accepted what seemed 10
be the best offer, as wise maidens do,
however shy they may seem. Phila-

promising the meeting of 1914 to that
