Vote for Dickey for
u. S. Senator
Defeat Jim Reed
Arch Negro-Baiter

whom Mr.. Dickey will succeed, if
elected, is James A. Reed, of Kansas
City, one of the arch enemids of the
Negro race, in that body. During the
63rd Congress, Reed proved himself
very fiend of race prejudice and in
making war on the rights of the Ne
gro, distanced such Negro-baiters as
Ben Tillman and James K. Vardaman.
He voted for the repeal of the Fif-
teenth Amendment and introduced in
to the Senate and fought for the adop-
tion of a measure to exclude from the
United States every member of the
African race. Reed has proven him
self relentless and implacible enemy
of human liberty and justice. He put
himself clearly on record as unalter-
ably opposed to every right and inter-
est of the Negro and every Negro
voter in Missouri should not only cast
his vote against him, but should work
with all his might from now until the
close of the polls on election day for
his defeat.
Walter S. Dickey, the Republican
candidate for United States Senator,
has always been the outspoken friend
of the Negro in his efforts to advance
his opportunities in the struggle of
life. He believes in the equality of
all men before the law and in their
civil and political rights and also be-
lieves in equality of opportunity for
employment and has proved his belief
by employing foil many years, more
than 600 Negroes in the various man.
ufacturing plants under his control.
Mr.. Dickey in his personal character
is genial, approachable and altogether
amiable, and is possessed of a frank
ness and sincerity that enables him
to deal directly with any man without
red tape and formality. These quail
| tiles have made him the admiration
of the thousands of Negroes who have
| come into contact with him during
the last 80 years he has been in active
public life, and every Negro voter in
| Missouri should make it his solemn
duty to vote for Walter S. Dickey, who
as United States Senator from Mis-
souri, will be an honor and credit to
the state and who will right the
wrongs, not only of the Negro, but of
the oppressed of all mankind.

wiLiAN INSPIRED SEGREGATION
~ MOVEMENT.

While Woodrow Wilson was can
didate for the presidency he made
promises to the Negroes that were
fairer than any ever given by candi-
date for that high office. In his let
ters to Bishop Walters, he promised
them civil rights and privileges such
as they are guaranteed under the con-
stitution, but as soon as he was elected
he repudiated every pledge he made
them and submitted himself absolute
ly to the counsel of the most vicious
Southern Negro-baiters such as Till
man, Vardaman, Helfin and Hard
wick, who have shaped his policy in
dealing with the Negro race.
Inspired by the example of Presi-
dent Wilson, in segregating the Ne
groes in the government departments,
Negro-baiters throughout the country
were encouraged to undertake the
segregation of the Negroes by restrict
ing their property rights in the large
cities. Baltimore, Louisville and St
Louis, in the order named, fell into
line with President Wilson, in this
most Infamous of all forms of reprisal
against the progress of the Negro race
by adopting segregation ordinances
In Baltimore and Louisville, the segre
cation ordinances were enacted by
Democratic boards of aldermen. II

men refused to enact the ordinance
which was carried later at specia
