WINNERS NAMED

In a convention open TO all candi-
dates, and after primaries that were
open to all factions. the Republican
party of this city has nominated city
ticket The ticket represents the
best that could be put up and is one
that represents majorities in contests.
Dewey c. Bailey is the head and the
whole contains several names that
are favorably known to colored yot-
ers.
In the month remaining till election
the battle will be fierce, but the men
named on this ticket are real Repub-
licans who are willing to be measured
by their deeds and by the platform
on which they run. The platform it.
self calls for measures that are prac-
tical and possible. 1t is not dream
nor a hope. Ii is the consensus Of
Republican wisdom, and is thoroughly
characteristic of the past record OF
usefulness OF the party. While the
opposition has not yet acted, we pre-
dict that this ticket and this platform
will be the best offered for popular
approval

QUEEN CITY CHORUS.

This organization of less than a
years standing, is endeavoring to
demonstrate to the public. under the
direction of Mr. Hewetson-Watson
late of Philadelphia, that there is
much of musical talent and ability
lying dormant here for lack of public
encouragement, support and good
leadership, which if taken and skill
fully trained would result in lasting
benefits to this community. All
music lovers and supporters OF such
worthy objects are invited to attend
at Central Baptist church, Twenty
fourth and California streets, Mon
day, April 20, $3.50 p. m, to listen to
the rendition of the choral society, in
cantata, "Gethsemane to Calvary"
The Interpretation to be given this
work will impress our patrons with
the creative musical qualities of our
people. and afford an opportunity to
critics TO know the real worth OF
them when trained.
Members who have been absent for
quite a while are requested to com
municate with Miss Jessie Young,
secretary, 1929 Race street, as to
their continuance of membership. as
the register will be revised at the
end of month. and absentees will be
dropped from list.
Applications for membership for
the spring and summer seasons will
be received by the secretary not later
than May 1st.

REGISTRATION is A PUBLIC DUTY.


The most imperative duty of the cit
izen will depend for its performance
upon the manner in which voters reg
lister next week The Statesman is
a partisan newspaper and wishes sue
cess to be with the Republican party,
but as the organ of colored people. it
owes them a duty of insisting that
they register even though they be dis
posed TO be of a contrary political
view. Registration and voting are
two acts which the Negro least of all
can afford to leave undone. Dis
franchisement by law is no worse than
voluntary withdrawal from voting.
Search out your precinct registration
place and see that you and all of your
household are properly registered. The
law will leave same names on the
registration books, but let each one
make sure by personal investigation
that he is registered and prepared to
vote.

Special comment is due on the pa
per OF Mrs. Hamler. because it was
stHctly in line with missionary work.
The paper showed that Mrs. Hamler

more real meat in it than any that
