P. w. McCann's
Record.

Mr.. Faul w. Mccain, former
Writ Clerk under Sheriff Henry
Mesters, is young man who was
born and reared in this Co., and
educated in the common schools
He is about % years old and has
made very creditable record in
public life. His services as writ
clerk we're satisfactory because
he was always polite, courteous
and prompt in giving people in
formation, thing we hope the
present writ clerk will do.
Since early in January, Mr.. Nc
Cam has been one of the Clerks
and managers of the Reece, Ed
mands and Smith headquarters in
the Reisch Bldg. He is genial and
diplomatic and makes first class
politician; he knows how to re-
ceive people and how to treat
them. He has a promising future.

MAYOR SCHNEPP'S RECORD
AND THE REGISTER.

1t is impossible to put any
credence in what the Register
says against the mayor, for 4
and six years ago respectively,
the editorial coils. of the Regis
ter were teeming with fine en-
commune on the mayor and he
the (mayor) has not changed
his color or policy since.
The Illinois State Register
said Mayor Schnepp was the
best mayor we had for 20 years
and you all know the Register
is an "honourable man.
The forum. [volume] (Springfield, Ill.) 1904-192?, 1915-04-03

The Register always believes
the Democratic ticket is the
best ticket. In selecting the
Board of Supervisors, vote the
Republican ticket straight, it
has nothing to do with the can.
didates for commissioner and
mayor, next year, we have re-
publicans to elect, and you
must start out by electing our
County heads now, SO we will
have control over the affairs oil
the county.

want recognition and respect, but
we can't expect to get these things

And what adds lustre and force
to what he says is: it sounds

William Rotramel, proprietor
of Huskey's Restaurant and Ho-
tel is a candidate for the Park
Board. He does not want your
(colored) trade at his rrstaur-
ant and you should remember
that he is not the man for you
for the park Board, SO don't
forget to do your duty. We
want men in public office who
are men indeed and not mere
things, why stigmatize a man
or class of men on account OF
color. Any man who will vio-
late the law and deprive a good
law-abiding citizen Of his rights,
is not fit to administer the law
or hold public Office, not even
Pawn Master. So you Colored
Voters watch the signs and
fight the devil with his own

DIR. ASKEW'S ARTICLE.

We desire to commend DR.. S.
A. Askew of Peoria, on that
splendid a ticle on Health and
Disease" published in the last
issue of the Forum. If our peo-
pie gave more time to the pre-
servation Of health, not only as
a race, but as Individuals, not
so much attention to doctors,
patent medicine and hoodooism,
we would have healthier and
therefore, a more cultured and
intellectual race, as is clearly
shown in DIR. Askew's article.
Some of our professional meu
are too lazy to take time and
write such things as will help
our real advancement, again
our attention is drawn to our
churches and lodge rooms, es-
pecially our churches, where the
largest number of our people
assemble and stay the longest,
land do the least) in over two
thirds of the cases, the poorest
ventilation is had. Why the
minister does not have the jan
itors properly ventilate the edi-
fees we are at loss to know,
especially around here, in a part
of the Country where most of
our ministers are educated, or
supposed to be, even at funerals,
occasions where Colored people
assemble in largest numbers,
regardless of whether they are
on speaking terms with the de-
ceased ornot. few colored church
edi6ces are properly ventil-
ated, what are you afraid of,
getting too cold and chilled7
The trouble with too many of
our ministers is this: every mod
ern reform offered by some one
like the Forum, they call it a
"knock'' or "meddling' or fight
ing" Now ask yourself the
question: as Rogers right2" are
we too negligent in calling our
congregations attention to these
vital things, such as how to live
how to preserve health and
what it is to preserve health
and what It is to be a real
Christian Ask your own self
and examine yourself, don't
start a TRADE at us, Another
thing all OF the ministers should
take this or some other local
paper and furnish a few lines
about your work each week,
about Is or 20 lines, free and
we will gladly publish it. Long
articles have to be paid for I'M
til we get stronger. We try to
give information that is whole
some and nutritious, we can't
soft" soap our people-too
much of that has ever been
done. You need the assistance
of the press and the press and
the. people need yours. but, if
you don't say things and do
things worth while aud effica-
tious, you are not assisting but
really resisting the onward and
upward march of the race and
the nation. From every idea
there is taken an idea, just as
we did from DR.. Askew, there
fore if you say something worth
while and do something, some
one will be enlightened and
blessed. Do you get the idea7

SIGNED NEWS
PAPER ARTICLES

Some attention has recently been
excited by proposal made by VIII
liam IS Bryan, to the effect that ev-
cry newspaper article should be
signed by the reporter or editor who
wrote it. This idea has often been
proposed by people who had grievan-
ces against the newspapers.
ManifestIy the purpose of such
custom would be principally to i
IDENTIFY the individual who wrote
articles offering some criticism OF
making some damaging statements
This would muzzle the average news
paper writer. Where the writer has
TO spend his time quarreling with
people over every little phrase in his
work. the temptation is strong to
write colorless and milk and water
SUIT.

and other newspaper writer's are
