A WRONG INTERPRETATION.

l regret that many of the supposed
intelligent persons Of my race have
misinterpreted my remarks in re-
sponse to the address of Mayor-elect
Meyers at the Sunday Forum on last
Sunday. 1t was my privilege and duty
to inform our honored guest of some
of the contending forces that hinder
the progress of our race in this city;
also to make response in keeping
with his remarks. No promises were
requested, no challenges were issued,
no demands made, or apologies given,
and Mr.. Meyers suffered no embar-
rassment.
Vengeance and predjudice should
not mould our opinions. l am for
tunate to be able tos express myself
courteously and intelligently, and hav-
ing fair knowledge Of the necessary
facts, l try to present my point Of
view, from study and conviction, rath-
er than by any appeals to popular
passions.
We are not proud of many congra-
tulations, because Of the reasons Of
fered with them. l have no political
axes to grind or fences to build. My
only desire is to do what l can to
assist in the great propaganda Of race
adjustment. A young attorney, not
present at the meeting, called me over
the phone to congratulate you on CIV
ing Meyers the devil" This shows
the spirit of revenge. On hearing the
name of the person who called, hung
up the receiver without a word in
reply.
Let us not revive the cannibalistic
customs of our ancestors, or adopt the
methods of Southern outlaws. Times
are changed and the Negro is chang
ing in conformity with them. Prin.
ciples, not personalities, shall contro!
our deliberations, opinions and actions,
Let us safeguard our expressions by
careful analyses and honest convic'
tions. May we do nothing in malice
or ill.temper.-Editor

SIMMONS GREATEST GRAFTON.

SIMMONS GREATEST GRAFTON.
Col. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, who
stands today unsurpassed by any ora
tor in the Nnited States, delivered his
greatest oration before an immense
audience in the Eighth Reg't. Armory
in Chicago, on Nov. Is, 1918. He ana
Used the Causes Of the War, paid
tribute to Americas place and part
in the Victory, and demanded justice
for all men. The Monitor, edited by
Rev. John Albert Williams of Omaha,
Neb, published the grafton in serial
form. j The speeches of Col Simmons
should be published in book form. He
is eloquent, logical and forceful. His
masterpieces of eloquence would be
q valuable contribution to the leading
libraries, and If placed within easy
touch of everyone, would do much to
bring about better relationship be-
tween the races.

WE ARE PROUD OF YOU.

The boys who have come from war
service, whether in camp or overseas,
are manly set. They show the re-
suit Of discipline and are 80 proud of
their position that they carry them
selves with becoming dignity. They
realize that the eyes Of the world are
on the Negro soldier and are willing
to measure up to the highest standard.
These men have nothing to, regret.
They frankly state that they have been
greatly benefited, and our special in.
terviews have not found one offering
even the mildest criticism Of the serv-
iSe. They are heroes, every one. Let
us honor our soldiers. They have
made glorious record. We are proud
Of you. because you have done your
duty, and you deserve our praise.
May we never forget you, and Uncle
Sam will not.

sire to rid our race of its criminal ele-

THAT PEACE TABLE GRAFT

There are many schemes put forth
by various organizations to finance
ways and means for so-called dele
gates to France. These robberies are
promoted by some so-called leaders.
If Negro does not carry credentials
from either the National Negro Busi-
ness League, the N. A. A. c. p, or the
Equal Rights League, he will not see
the peace table, even as waiter. Any
citizen who has the fare may go, so let
these personal profit promoters pay
their own fare.
The Twin City star., 1918-12-21

We do not expect that a Negro will
sit at the peace table. He could not
unless delegated such a privilege by
President Wilson, and that is improb
able. However, good lobby of intel
ligent Negroes would do much by way
of mediation by their presence and
work.
