HAD EN- UNDER LOCK AND KEY
Why the Negro Delegates Were Not
Much in Evidence at the Chi
cage Convention.

Much in Evidence at the Chi
cage Convention.
In an article from the inside at
the Chicago and Baltimore conven-
lions appears the following in the
American Magazine:
''The money placed among the
overseers of the Southern vote, ac-
cording to the accepted report, was
enough to run the presidential cam
paigns of both parties thirty years
ago when we were a simpler people.
The Taft managers took no chances
on the negro delegates getting away
from them and encountering tempta-
tion from the Roosevelt people.
Usually the negro delegates were
prominent figures at ante-convention
gatherings. They like to display
themselves in public, strutting
around the hotel corridors with their
breasts covered in badges. But at
Chicago it was almost impossible to
find a negro delegate on Monday
night preceding the opening of the
convention. They were actually un-
der lock and key. One bunch of four
teen was held in Pullman car in
Ohio and only rushed up in the
morning of the opening day in time
to vote for Mr.. Root for temporary
chairman. Others were detained in
rooms at the hotels until their lead
ers marched them to the convention
hall"

HIGH TAXES GET A BOOST
Bond Issue Failed to Carry Friday,
and Taxes Will Be Raised So
on the Thousand,

AS forecasted in Fridays issue of
The News, the election held that dey
on the proposed issuance of $12,5O0
of city bonds resulted in the defeat
of the bonds. For bonds 100 votes
were cast, lacking 26 of being two
thirds of the registration of 324 vot-
ers. Only 13 votes were cast against
bonds.
The people seemed very indiffer-
ent, and most of those who went to
the polls did so through personal re-
quests of workers.
The result of the defeat of the
bonds is that city property owners
will pay tax rate of SIS on the
thousand this year instead of SIP, as
heretofore, as debts have been made
by the council and the school board
that must be paid.
