As further evidence that Hon. Robert
II. SEeitzer is broad and liberal mind
ed, that he is full Of the spirit Of true
Amerieanism and the new Democracy,
who is the people Is candidate for mayor
of Chicago, entertains the most friend
ly or kindly sentiments towards his
Colored fellow citizens, he spoke in part
as follows, while addressing a meeting
recently held at los N. Dearborn street,
which was composed of Colored men
and women residing in the various parts
of the city:
"Let me remind you that in this
mornings newspapers appeared state
ments from me, regarding religion, race
and color which very distinctly sets
forth my position regarding the Col
ored people. wish you all would read
that statement of mine, imbued with
the proper Amerieanism which pro-
claims the great truth, namely, that
all men before God are created equal.
That is my doctrine, my friends, that
enuneiate in that statement in the morn
ing newspapers referred to-"
"I want to say this, 1 want to pledge
this TO you. 1 am very glad, indeed,
to hear your chairman say you have
been given some recognition by the
present Democratic mayor, Hon. Carter
H. Harrison. want you all to remem-
Der what I am saying because never
made a promise in my whole private
life, never made a pledge as a candi-
date and broke it. The very best deal
you have ever gotten from any mayor

of Chicago is the worst that am going
to give you.
"There is no race prejudice lurking
in my heart because of your color for I
have a number Of excellent friends,
men, am glad to clasp by the hand,
and they are Colored men, and I am
not ashamed of my friendship for them.
There is no prejudice in my heart, and
you are going to get recognition, if
you will get out and demonstrate to
us that you are willing to do something
to help perpetuate the party in power.
Show us that you believe in the spirit
of democracy, which after all should be
the creed of every Colored man. If
there is any question in special priv
ilege, it is enrolled on the side of our
political adversary. Therefore you
want to as men Of self-preservation of
your own interest in the advancement
of the cause, in promotion Of the cause
of equal rights, promotion of the cause
of no prejudice against a man because
of color, be a Democrat; for it is the
faith of the people; it means the people
against plutocrats.
Our friends will note that in all of
the departments of the city government
today, there are several COlored men
and women holding splendid positions
under the present city administration,
which is Democratic. This and other
reasons are why the Colored man should
free himself from the domination Of
any one political party and stand with
his friends.

I says about the progress of the Nan,
race in the last fifty years. WbsSr
read that in 1868 the homes oWnaS l,
the Negroes of the United States x.,,
5000 and in 1913, fifty years afteru,s
they were $4,000, 1 made a minuts 4
that-it struck me as so significant 7
read that the farms operated bv Y.
groes in 1868 were $4,000; that in 1914
they were $4,000. 1 do not believe !,
all the history of the world such uror
ress has been made by any people q
any race in fifty years. The Cheerful
ness, the optimism which 1 began n
feel in a study of the book, which m
to me so interesting and so wonderful
has come to its full fruition sin.s
have been here in Tuskegee. It a
greatest optimism breeding place TIT
I ever saw.
I never in my life in any educational
institution, in any school, or eOIsz
or university, saw what it seems to n
to be such intense, serious interest n
what the boys and girls are here for
such an intense and serious spirit. D
is very little use to 90 to schools and
colleges if you do not want to lean
There are boys sent to schools and co.
leges all over this country for the pr
pose apparently Of spending their tns
and their money. 1t is not they Eh'
get the benefit; it is those boys nd
girls who come intent and bent upon
improving themselves, upon leaning
upon using the advantages which Ne
put before them and that, it seems q
me, is the spirit of Tuskegee. The pr
it of Tuskegee, also, seems to be thS
Of helPfulness.
1 remember reading the other dg
that a little Colored girl won a pm
in Cincinnati that was offered by some
body for the best essay upon how Nc
could benefit her eity-the community
in which she lived-and she Wros
little short composition in when sS
said she would try to benefit her cay
by trying never to go higher on 'a'
ladder without bringing up SOMEBODY
behind her.
1 think the work which the grsaF
ates of this institution are dong Is -
proving the whole Negro population u
the South and it is one Of the gi'-
triumphs of civilization at this tln4
for civilization is not to spread n''
material wealth, it is the spirit "niI

JUDGE EDWARD o. BROWN FAVOR
ABLY IMPRESSED WITH THE
SURROUNDINGS AT TUsKEGEE
INSTITUTE. ALABAMA.

| GoT1TOT61 Al1AbA11A.
Judge Edward o. Brown, president of
the Chicago branch of the National As
ISOLATION, for the advancement of Col
ored people, who, with his good wife,
Mrs. Brown, were members of the Ju-
illus Rosenwald party which lately Wis
lifted Tuskegee Institute, Booker T.
Washington's school.
And Judge Brown, like the rest of
the party, was favorably impressed with
everything he beheld in connection with
it.
On that occasion he addressed the dis.
tinguished guests who were present
from all parts of the country and the
students in part as follows:
'I am just in that state Of mind that
1 was exhorted to be by the choir-I
am very humble. Since I have been
here in Tuskegee, have learned so
many things that 1 did not know be-
fore. have realized how very defee-
tive my education was in certain things,
which thought the very foundations
of good education, so that naturally
I am humble. Like Judge Carpenter,
I came here to see and to learn and I
have no message to tell you, to give
you, because the only message that is
worth giving is constantly impressed
upon you by your Principal and your
teachers. Whatever you try to do, you
should try to do well.
DR.. Washington has expressed his
great pleasure that the sun is shining
today and has spoken of the fact that
1t has been raining before. Upon my
word, I hardly knew the difference; the
sun has been shining in my heart ever
since I have been here in Tuskegee.
I am absolutely sincere in saying that
it has been one Of the most inspiring
and enhghtening incidents Of my life.
1 have been becoming for the last few
months something Of pessimist. I do
not know exactly why. Do you know
what pessimist isl He is a person
who looks at everything through yell
low speetaeles and jaundieed eyes. I
do not think am naturally Of that
disposition, but this cruel, and it seems
to me, senseless war, which is going
on on the other side of the Atlantic
and involving most Of the greatest ma
lions on the earth left me since last
fan in the state Of mind which pre-
vented me from taking 9 cheerful view
Of things and then thought about the
Negro questionable Negro race in
which I have been very much interested
for years. I began to look upon the
dark side Of things and thought Of the
vulgar prejudiees and unjust discrim-
nations and things Of that sort, which
since I have been here seem to me Of
very small Importance after al, for the
stars in their courses are fighting for a
people that are doing what you are do
ing and I have begun to change my pes
simistic view Of things to an optimistic
one.
Just about the time I received the
invitation from Mr.. Rosenwald to ae-
company his party, I received the Ne
gro Year Book, printed and published
and sent from this institution and I
was amazed 70 read what that book
