NEGROES "SLICRED" BY
MEMBER OF own RACE

Just how long it will take tht
negroes to learn that their most bitter
enemies are the members Of their OWL
race, we are unable to say. But We
do feel safe III saying that a few more

Arkansas few days ago and they

this: A ncgro-just a common old

would in some manner find out how
much money they had and he would
make the fee to join accordingly, stat.
ing that those paying more would get
a higher degree or something to that
effect. This negro "slicker' charged
some Of his victims $1.50 and somC
Of them $5O.O0-just depended on the
amount 'of cash they had. He also
told them that he was a representa-.
tive of the government, and that he
was organizing the negroes to defend
their own rights, and at the proper
time they would drive the white peo
pie from that section Of the country
and take their homes, etc.
SO a few days ago they decided that
they were properly organized and that
the proper time had arrived to drive
the whites from their homes, and
started out on the insurrection, and
after the battle ceased here is what
we find. A negro "Slicker" got their
money, then the members of the organ.
ization started the battle on the white
people, and very small number of
white people were killed and wounded,
and a large number Of negroes were
killed and wounded Now the soldiers
that were called out have captured
scores of negroes who took a leading
part In the fighting and will continue
the hunt until they get the last one
and then they will be brought to Just.

RECOMMENDS
UNDESIRABLES
DEPORTATION

The chairman of the Cordova local
board, under the selectiye service
regulations, received the following let
ter from the members of the .associat-
ed local boards of Seattle and King
county, regarding aliens claiming ex-
emption from military service:
To members of all local and district
boards:
At recent meeting Of members of
all local boards of Seattle, Washing
ton, resolution was unanimously
adopted to initiate nationwide
movement having for its purpose the
deportation of all aliens, both declar-
ants and non-declarants, who had
claimed exemption from military
service on the mere ground OF nom
citizenship.
The exemption of aliens was the
most exasperating experience of the
boards. The action of such aliens
was cowardly, disgraceful, and UNI
patriotic. Every such person immedi-
ately branded himself as dangerous
and undesirable resident. This coun-
try nurtured and protected these in
CRATES. At the very first test, when
this nation faced crisis, these men
were not willing to bear any burdens.
For every alien so exempted good
American boy had to go to the front.
These aliens remained at home In
ease and safety.
They still retain good jobs to the
exclusion of our returned soldiers.
Many organizations seem to center
all their attention on the aliens who
surrendered their papers. You, as a
member of the draft board, can see no
difference between the alien who sur
rendered his first papers and nom
declarant claiming exemption-both
of them are of the same brand of para
sites. A man not willing to fight GER
tainly would not make desirable
citizen. If congress Is SO intent upon
| deporting only the alien who surrend-
cred his first papers, then at least
congress should by statute make 1t i'm
possible for the non-declarant alien
claims exemption to be naturalized.
Congress is now considering bill
/ TO restrict immigration. We believe
boards should urge congress to pro-
hibit all general immigration for at
least period of years.

boards upon the question Of deportins

FOREIGNERS HAVE TO

Los Angeles, Cal. Dec. 9--The more

Il is that Jack Dempsey wants to do
his fighting on this side of the At
lantic.

from a French or English promoter
than from an American to get the
arpentierDempsey match,' declar-
ed kearns today We prefer to fight
at home I'd say it would take some
S50,000 more to land the Bout for
London or Paris than from some Am
erican city
Since Dominick Tortorich of New
Orleans offers $150,000 and Kearns
understands he has the money In ac-
tual cash ready to pay over when the
time comes, it would be logical to
suppose that it will take 100000 or
more to get Jack to buy tickets across
the pond.
kearns said he was getting tele-
grams by the dozens from promoters
all over the country, Denver and Port
land, Or, being among the latest bid
ders.
But to begin with, place where
fighting is permitted must be select

there's lots of time between now and

agree, that Dempsey is keeping in fine

Rub it on freely and never mind
III it does feel good and hot, il. can

But don't stop at throat and chest;
get some one to rub this enemy of in

This is one of the most sensible

You can get Begy's Mustarine for
