PRESIDENT WILSON
CLINGS TO HIS POST
He Saws International Situation Is So
Grave That He Dare Not Let
His Thoughts Turn
Away.

Washington, Sept. l4.-Pres. Wilson
expressed his view of the gravity OF the
international situation which confronts
the United States to delegation of Nir-
ginians who asked him yesterday to visit
the Manassas battlefield late this month.
1--WE are all hoping and praying that the
skies may clear" said the president, but
we have no control of that on this side
Fof the water, and it is impossible to pre-
dict any part of the course Of affairs"
The president was reminded that some
months ago he had promised to 60 to
Manassas to dedicate a tablet. "When |
made that promise the president told
the delegation "things were just begin
ming and a great many things have hap
pened since which have altered not only
the aspect of our own affairs but the
aspect of affairs of the world. My ex-
perience here day by day is that ques-
tions turn up so suddenly and have to be
handled so promptly and sometimes with
so much thoughtful discretion that ]
really dare not let my thoughts 90 out
to other matters. | could not come to
Manassas without having something to
say. Ii would not be worthy of the oc-
casion IL | did not make preparations
that would be worth while and that is
out of the question. My thoughts are
mortgaged beyond recall for the present.

liberty for the present and that my near.

peratiye duty. ! have been obliged TO
say this to all invitations, however
tempting in character, and ! would not
be worthy OF your trust If did not

evening Harry Taylor took issue
with what the Forum said relative
to the civil ssrvice, Mayor Schnepp

any person has right to do, but
most pers ons who heard Mr.. Tay-

|stantiated what we said relative

issue. We want it clearly under

any that can't be verified, we stand

There are 4 commissioners to
be elected and one mayor, to
serve as the business managers
of the city for the next 4 years.
After thoroughly considering
all angles of the political situa-
ton in this city and from a
colored mans view point we have
reached the conclusion that we
can honestly and conscientious
ly, endorse and support, as 3
of the 4, Mr.. Reece, Mr.. Smith
and Mr.. Edmands. Through
these men and their friends and
supporters, the colored people
for the past II years, to our
knowledge, have received more
and better recognition along all
lines political and it will be sui
eide to not stick with our best
friends and those who will give
us a fair chance in the run for
life. We have no fight against
any other candidates, what we
say here can be proven and
will be shown again if the op-
portunity presents itself.

MORTUARY.

Mrs. Eva Stewart-Taylor,
died last Saturday, March 20,
She was a promising young
woman who was just begin
ming in life, and her death is
the more regretableI or sad from
that very fact. She leaves the
infant child, a mother, father
and three BROTHERS as mourners.
Her funera was held March %,
at Union Baptist Church. Rev.
Manuel, assisted by other cler-
gymen, conducted the services
and said the last sad rites. I'm
dertaker Wallace had charge Of
the funeral and the interment
was at Oak Ridge. the fna

these mundane shores to that
infinite habitat that surpasses

qave made good impressions and
have gained much momentum

to be that live" one you must be

No one has proven yet that Col
ored persons who took the exam
Iination and qualified we're denied
positions under the present ad-
ministration of Moyor Schnepp,
in fact the closer you analyze the
matter the more liberal and fair
min ed we find the Mayor to be
towards Colored men. While we
want recognition and respect, but
we can't expect to get these things
before we qualify. We must also
remember that we must command
things before we can demand
them; respect ourselves before we
can hope for others to respect us;
and, above all, stand together.
