are still trying to establish them

not be exploited thus. 1t means for

What is the local situation? Every
dependable colored person has more
calls for work than he or she can fill.
There is decided shortage of colored
help. What have we to induce the

demand education, social and reli-

these avantages must be with their

FROM THE PEOPLE
PRESSING NEED.

"A
The people of Pendleton, as espe-
cially exemplified during the past
three years, have met their national
and humanitarian duties in splendid
fashion. We have a reputation for
benevolence.
We therefore come to you hopefully
with this local need. In Pendleton
there are upwards of 100 colored peo-
pie. There is no chronological prin-
ciple known by which one race may
claim superiority over another, yet in
human practice color positively hand
leaps a man.
For the last five years the migra-
ton Of the colored people from the
south to north has aIarmingly increas-
ed. The social and economic prob
lens resulting therefrom every read
ing and thinking man knows. The
most grovelling and beastly race riots
have recently occurred in supposedly
cultured progressive northern cities.
Personally we have no desire TO dis
cuss the immeasurably perplexing
problem. but simply to urge local pre-
ventative measures.
Such colored men as DR.. r. E.
Jones of New Orleans, DR.. w. A.
Hughes of Washington, d. c., DR.. 1.
