Race. nationality or religion should
not interfere with Americas economic
progress. The greatest need of the
Negro is economic freedom and eco
nomic justice. This is all the Negroes
should desire. 1t is not bid for char
ity or for hostility 1t is only to be
permitted to enter American rivalry, to
go down if incompetent. to die out If
weak, to go up if capable.
st is the desire to have the same rules
by which whites are judged applied
to the Negro, to be a part of an indus
trial democracy. To give him this de-
sire is most difficult, 1t requires the
most profound economic foresight or
the highest religious devotion. or both
1t is the common ground of political
economy and the teaching of Jesus.
For. indeed. it is easier to give ones
body to be burned to give aims to the
poor to speak wilson,. to write learned
ly. than to give simple charity. which is
an attitude of mind rather than ma

accomplish his purpose. In his ex-
alted estimate of himself and in the
exuberance of his unlimited ambition
and desire to be the peoples ruler
and in his eagerness in the fray into
which he cast himself, he lost his
moral balance and sense of propo:-
| ton and said and did things and
countenanced them in the conduct
of his supporters which were fagrant-
ly dishonorable according to all rec
ognized standards and such as he has
condemned in diners. In short he
has conducted a personal" campaign
and not a campaign for the people,
If he had been nominated it would
have been a personal" triumph His
failure was a personal defeat. He
has determined to retrieve himself
by organizing a personal party,
Roosevelt party, to support me-
Roosevelt" as a candidate for presi-
dent for a third term without any
distinct policy affecting the interests
of the country.
Can the herculean talks of forming
and financiering such a party be per-
formed without prospect of any
thing but humiliating failure? There
is no likelihood that the established
organizations of either party in any
state can be captured. There would
have to be a national organization
with committees, and an organization
in states with committees, headquar-
ters, bureau of publicity and speak
ers, campaign literature and workers,
the expense would be great and funds
would not be easy to get, unless the
Interests" which have been so friend
ly to Roosevelt's ambition would gen
erously donate. At any rate, such
an organization must have zeal and
activity coming not only from Oyster
Bay, New York, but, generally over
the country. With third party, the
utmost that can be hoped for, is sue
cess in a few states where radicalism
is rampant and where the name of
Roosevelt is used to conjure with in
spite of all the adverse influence of
reason and old attachments. 1t will
be proved that not even with a man
possessing the colossal egotism and
self-confidence of Mr.. Roosevelt could
find that a political party can be built
in this country upon the personal
claims of any man who belongs to no
party and who, like a ship in mid
ocean, is shoreless, soundless and
If l may advise you, my

Its Great Success Continues

We are glad to hear that the

continuing to meet with great
success, and it's January attend
ance in the history of the school
This institution has at its
head thoroughly experienced
business man; he has not only
had twenty years experience III
handling commercial schools,
but has had much valuable bust
ness experience in other lines,
and is today identified with a
number of Texas greatest en-
terprises. Our people realize
that thorough business train
ing comes from one who pos
sesses business ability and bust
ness experience. This is proven
by the fact that this institution
is the largest school of Bookkeep
ing, Business Training, Short
hard, Typewriting and Tele-
graphy in America. They use
their own specially prepared
text books in almost every de
partment, text books prepared
from the standpoint of what the
business world demands, rather
than that of the the theoretical
school room. Some merchants
are able TO do twice the business
of others, with the same capital
invested. This is due To the diff
ference of the methods of the
two men. The same is true of
business colleges; the reason
that one secures a larger patron
age, gives a more thorough train
ing, places more of its graduates
into high salaried positions is
because of its superior methods.
