The mission of The Broad Az, is to
awaken the sleeping Negro, to arouse
the Indolent ones to inspire the honest
ones, and to stop the frivolous and the
depraved, from destroying those who
might be saved.
The Negro should not forget this all
important truth; that Righteousness
exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach
to any people" And this philosophy,
"You can not change the principles
of a reigning school in a day" And
this, "The race is not given to the
swift, neither to the strong; but to him
that endure unto the end" Then since
the race is no stronger than the indi-
vidual characteristics, We should turn
our attention to the training of our
children, because the child is but the
twig Of the tree, if you scratch it,
while it is tender or permit any one
else to impede its growth, centuries to
come will tell of it to our injury, re-
member that the children Of today is
the race of tomorrow, what a numerous
responsibility.

The Hyde Park Municipal court,
seem to be center of attraction this
week, for two of our prominent at
torneys were much in evidence, Mr.. E.
H. Wright and Mr.. Hale G. Parker.
How long may we ask, will the in
telligent Negro or White man either
for that matter, play hypocritieally
with the fundamental things that make
for the best interest of the people, al
ways taking advantage of the igno-
rance, in the attempt to advance their
personality, and their right to leader
ship. How long, how long, may we
ask how lOngi
