His suggestion was promptly approved and orders despatched.

 Papers Prepared to Call All Guards. l men.

 of calling guardsmen from other states into the service was not under immed- fate consideration. It was learned 1 however, that General Funston already

CONGRESSMAN CARL C., VAN
DYKE.

Two years ago the voters of Ram
sey county were asked to consider the
qualifications of a new man for con-
eiesslOhal hOnOrS. The response
OF colored voters, almost to a man was
We'll not trade old friends for new"
At the close of that act the curtain
was rung down on our old friend.
Thanks to subsequent events, we were
not left friendless, for in the next act
the curtain rings up on another des-
tined to be as unfaltering as the other.
We refer to Congressman Carl G.. Van
Dyke. =
However much we abhOr the person
who arrays his talents against us, it
must be borne in mind that it requires
courage, founded on deep-seated right
eous principles. to stand up in Con-
gress in defense of colored people.
Without prompting, that caliber and
character OF courage has been ex-
hlDlted by our real frieno, Congress-
man Carl G. Van Dyke. 49,.
Here are some brilliant spots in an
| untarnished record:
~ A bill was introduced in CONGRESS-
providing that white juvenile court Of
ticers of Washington, D. c., might ar
rest any offender of the law, but that
colored officers should arrest none but
colored Offenders of the same laws
Congressman Van Dyke registered OBJ
]ectlons to the unfairness of the meas
ure. 1t was defeated.
Efforts were made to reduce the
appropriations for Howard University
and the public schools of Washington.
Again Congressman Van Dyke stepped
into the arena, attacking the injustice
OF the propositions. ~--<
For many years before becoming
Congressman, Mr.. Van Dyke was an
employee of the. Postal Department,
where he studied and learned the ills
OF that branch of our Government.
Upon entering Congress he introduced
| a bill to correct some of those evils.
| One of the features of the measure
was the advancement in assignments
and salary by seniority and merit.
| Seniority and merit" did not sound
| we'll to the southern Democratic sen.
| ators where colored men and white
men worked together. The Congress-
man was asked to understand that the
provisions of the bill would not give
fcolored men precedence over white.
Even though his pet measure hung
in the balance Congressman Van Dyke
would not understand anything but
equal justice. The bill was defeated.
Among the good deeds of the Con-
gresham for us locally is his insist
ance upon the appointment of Mr..
Otto N. Raths as postmaster. No man
has ever administered the affairs of
that office with such fairness. Ask the
employees. Merit is the rule there.
No honest man can ask for more.
If we have proper appreciation for
the value of a real friend in a high
place, we will vote for and work for
| Congressman Carl G. Van Dyke.
Ladies who read this article will
please use their efforts to get votes for
a tried friend, the kind we need:
