COLOR LINE DRAWN.

1t is indeed a sad as we'll as Pc
culiar circumstance that at this time
the color line should be drawn in the
United States army. The colortd
people should be excluded from the
regular service in the army, especial
ly those who are now organizing to
60 to the front elsewhere, preventing
one Of our prominent citizens as we'll
as the colored cooks from enlisting.
While we try to be loyal and true
patriots, yet there comes time when
we feel that we cannot say this is
our country, the land Of the free and
the home of the brave. Yet we must
not be traitors or disloyal, because
those in authority demand US that
privilege. We do not think it is
consensus of opinion among the
American people, and some day truth
and justice will reign supreme. And
the Negro race will be appreciated
and his services will be accepted as
any other American citizen. Wait,
boys, there is better day coming.
