Negro Boxers Get Justice in New York
[SAN FRANCISCO BULLETIN.

SAN FRANCISCO BULLETIN.
Governor Whitman OF New York
must be big, broad minded man.
He has instructed the members of
the boxing commission of his State
that henceforth there be no dis
elimination against Negroes who
wish to box white men.
The governor, it seems, has been
so busy with more important affairs
that he did not know of the COM
missions ruling against mixed
matches. y When the matter was
called to his attention few days
ago, he asked why the commission
was discriminating against Negroes
No satisfactory answer could be
given. One commissioner said it
was because of Jack Johnson.
WE'LL" said Gov. Whitman
I'VE are organizing Negro regi-
ment in New York to fight in
Mexico. If Negro citizens are good
enough to fight with guns. they
certainly are entitled to box with
soft gloves when they are home.
Let there be no more discrimina-
ton. If a white man does not
want to tox with Negro, that is
his personal business. But it is
not up to the commission to tell
one man he can box, and another
that he cannot because he does not
happen to be blonde.

While marking time. it now be-
comes the solemn duty of every
patriotic American to cast about
for that great and strong citizen to
lead as President the nation out of
the shadows Of the valley of death
The nation this year must decide
as to whether this shall continue to
grow aud live as the land of liberty
and equality, or whether it shall
continue to decay and die under
rebel reactionaries, a mock republic
built on the sands uf the color line
and white supremacy. These are
the questions which colored citizens
call 10 the attention of the nation.
In earnestness and all patriotism
we now ask the statesmen of the
nation to see to it that none but
true Americans be put on guard in
1916. Il will not be enough for
the next President of our common
country to be able to declare that
he has never done anything against
black people. 1t will not be enough
for him to declare that he does not
believe in disfranchisement and
segregation. The next President
of the United States must be an
American of blood aud iron, one to
face the future rather than the past
who will awaken the country 5
prosperity-who will resolve to de-
moliSh the monstrous structure of
race segregation and destruction
which the South has builded. He
mnst be man who will tell the
South TO its teeth that the door of
opportunity, even in political repre-
sentation, shall not be closed in the
face OF any man because of color.
His militant programme must be
all men ", rather than some men
down. For the black race he must
see to 1t that the bars against its
progress are smashed. No others
need apply for its suffrage. If
Hughes makes such campaign in
1916, he will not only receive its
solid suffrage, but help a race and
bless the nation. New York News.

PRAISE FOR COLORED SOLDIERS
NEW YORK WORLD.

In authorizing the organization
of Negro regiment of the national
guard, Governor Whitman paid a
tribute to the distinguished service
rendered to the country by Negro
soldiers. In the operations of both
cavslry and Infantry with Pershing
in Mexico, Negro regulars played
a conspicuous part. There are no
better troopers anywhere for the
kind of work required in pursuit of
Villa S bandits.
Like most Of the regulars in the
war with Spain, the Negro troops
at Santiago received less than their
full share of credit. In the Philip
pines, i'll Porto Rico, In Hawaii,
wherever duty has called the Negro
regiments, they have lived up to
the traditions Of the regular army.
7 Too few persons remember to-day
that in 1868 IS, r8o, 900 Negro
soldiers enlisted under the Union
flag twice as many men as there
are in the United States army al
the present time. The military
records abound in testimony as TO
their excellent discipline under fire.
There was strong prejudice in the
army and in the country against
Negro soldiers. The South threat
ened to send all prisoners taken into
slavery, and treat white officers as
leaders Of a servile insnrrection
The day the Fifty-fourth Massa-
chusetts. the first colored regiment
; TO 60 10 the war, marched to the
Battery wharf in Boston marked a
memorable event.
On the monument on Boston
common, In which ST. Gaudens
portrayed Colonel Robert @. Shaw
and his Negro soldiers on the way
to take the steamer for the South,
are these words of Lincoln
And then there will be some
black men who can remember that
with silent tongue and clinched
teeth aud steady eye and we'll
poised bayonet. they have helped
mankind on to this great consum-
nation
In that sentence is summed up
the patriotic desire of the coiored
peop.e Of the State to be represented
by a regiment Of national guard.

WAR UPON PAIN!

Pain is visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite Unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every emer-
gency if you keep a small bottle of
Sloan's Liniment handy. 1t is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered.
Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing
required-it drives the pain away.
1t is really wonderful. Mervin H. Sol
ster, of Berkeley, California, writes:
"Last Saturday, after tramping
around the Panama Exposition
with wet feet, l came home with my
neck so stiff that | couldn't turn 1

HUBBLE BRIDGE in BAD SHAPE

County Road Engineer Mckee
Rife is doing everything he can this
week to make the bridge across
Hanging Fork between Hubble and
Danville safe for traffic. This bridge
is owned jointly by Lincoln and
Boyle counties, and the Boyle Off
Gals have been notified a number of
times concerning its condition, but
have postponed cooperating with
the Lincoln officials in having ne
cessary repair work done, until the
bridge is getting in a dangerous
condition. Road Engineer Rife made
an examination as soon as his atten-
ton was called to its condition, and
he found that one of the wing walls
of the main abutments, was in very
bad shape, and some other form of
support for the bridge would have
to be provided at once. He took a
force of men to the bridge Monday
to jack it up with timber supports,
until some joint action about it can
be obtained from the two counties
which own it together.

Tuesdays and Fridays
CONGRESSIONAL
POLITICIANS
Seem TO Be Busy just Now Trying
TO Find Man to Run Against
Harvey Helm.

! Sundays papers had some interest
ing political gossip regarding efforts
which are being made to get out
opposition to Congressman Harvey
Helm, of this city. A dispatch from
Danville to the Courier Journal said
The removal of Attorney General
James Garrett to Louisville upon his
retirement eliminates him as a pros
pective candidate for Congress in the
Eighth district. He lad been con-
sidering the solicitations of his
friends, but decided to retire from
politics and devote his energies TO
law in the Falls City. Democrats
in the Eighth are making strong ap-
peals to William Jennings Price to
become a candidate. He is the pres
ent United States Minister to Pana-
ma, and an effort is on foot to in
duce him to resign the post and re-
turn home to enter the fight for the
nomination next August.
AOIH O1OulWSll, the OIuClundLl Eli
quirer's Kentucky political writer,
had the following of interest here:
In the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict 1T is rumOred than an effort is
being made by certain influential
Democrats who are not favorable to
the reelection of Representative
Harvey Helm, Stanford, to clear the
decks so that Hon. George L. Pickett,
Shelbyville. who is to represent the
Fifty-ffth Legislative District at the
coming session of the General As
sembly, may make the race for the
Democratic nomination single-handed
against the Lincoln county man,
who has the reputation of being the
best mixer in his party in his dis
trict. General James Garnett will
not be a candidate. He will prae-
tice law in Louisville.
Several of the leading Republicans
of the Eighth District are of the
opinion that George D. Florence,
Stanford, may be the nominee of
their party for Representative. 1t is
said that Judge L. L. Walker, Lam
caster, who was the Republican nom
inee for Lieutenant Governor. and
who has been mentioned as a Con-
gressional probability, has about per-
fected an arrangement whereby he
is to have the support of his party
leaders for Collector at Danville, to
succeed Judge John Hughes in the
event of the election of Republic
can to the Presidency Tom Bal
lard, Lawrenceburg, also, it is said,
is to have good place if he desires
one in lieu of entry into the congress

Pass Away at Gilbert's Greek
Sunday Few Hours Apart.

AS they had gone down the path
way of life together, hand in hand
so Mr.. and Mrs. Fred F. Moser, Of
Gilbert's Greek, crossed the Valley
of the Shadow of Death together
Sunday. Mr.. Moser died at five
o'clock on the Sabbath morning and
his lifelong partner and help-mate
followed him to the other shore at
nine o'clock that evening. Had their

he. home at noon Tuesday by ]. C.

BOOZE BURGLARS BUSY
Twenty Gallons of Whisky Stolen al
Traylor's Distillery

The 'boys" evidently ran short or
Christmas booze in town last week
for a surreptitious visit was made tic
the Traylor distillery on the Goshen
pike, north of town, and about 20
gallons stolen. Entrance was eff
fected by prizing open a window and
the booze was taken from a barrel.
The loss was discovered next day
by DR.. W. d. Tardif, colored store
keeper, who notified Deputy Collect
or Rowan Saufiey, and an investiga-
ton was made at once. The latter
believes he has pretty good clew
to the booze burglar.
There are about 800 barrels of Old
Edgewood whisky left at the locked
government warehouse, which is
about all there is left of the once-fa-
NOUS old distillery. The whisky is
owned by the Paxton Bros, of Gin
cinnati. As soon as all of the whisky

government keeps a man on duty in

contains as much as 5000 gallons.
but if few more burglaries at this
warehouse are successfully engineer
ed, Uncle Sam will soon be relieved
of this extra expense. This is the
third or fourth time the warehouse
has been robbed of booze, and as
there is no guard maintained at
night, some surprise has been pre-
viously expressed that some of the
nifty booze artists of this section
have not backed an auto truck up
one fine night and carried off all it
would hold.

the plight of Mr.. Deatherage, and

was a brave deed on the part of the
colored boy and he is being warmly
commended for the heroism he dis
played. The creek was very high
and the current swift. 1t had cut

dispatched a small force to the
bridge, to make what repairs seemed
necessary. The big rocks of the
abutment, some as much as four
feet IN diameter, were very loose,
and when the bridge workers tried
to handle them, came down on top of
them, from their weakened ground
support, and carried the men into the
creek with them. In addition to
severe wetting and almost getting
drowned. Mr.. Deatherage had the in
step of his right foot broken by one
of the large rocks falling over upon

the colored boy, Vardaman, who, he
declares, is one of the most efficient
road and bridge helpers he has ever
seen and a thoroughly reliable and
man at all times.
