Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsi-
fled cocoanut oil shampoo (which
is pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily and removes every particle Of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo at most any drug store.
1t is very cheap, and a few ounces
is enough to last everyone in the
family for months.

Elderly People Have A
Daily Health Problem
Stomach muscles and digestive organs
slow to act az age advances

n lost people find the years
M slipping by without real
A'A izing it, until suddenly
confronted with the fact that they
can no longer digest everything
they would like to eat. It then
becomes their daily task to avoid
what they know to be chronic con-
stipation.
When exercise and light diet
fail it will be necessary to resort to
artificial means. Strong physics
and cathartics, however, are not
advisable for elderly people. They
act too powerfully and a feeling of
weakness results.
What is needed is a laxative
containing effective but mild
properties. This is best found in
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
which is a combination Of simple
laxative herbs with pepsin. 1t

OFF BALLOT
Negroes Charge Republican
Bosses Defeat Purpose of
Independents.
MAKE APPEAL TO VOTERS

James r. Norrel, NJ D., and G. n T..
Gray have issued a statement relative to
the affairs of the Independent Republican
party.
The statement follows:
Men and women OF the negro race
We have just emerged from one of the
most remarkable suits ever waged in the
courts on behalf of our people
We lost because the lily white bosses
Of the. Republican party have decreed
that negroes shall only vote for white
candidates: that negro Republicans shah
not aspire to be candidates for elective
offices in Marion County as long as
these bosses are in power.
The Independent Republican party. in
its conception, was intended to force
the present-day bosses of the Republican
party to give to negroes the square deal
that Abraham Lincoln and the founders
OF the grand old party intended negroes
should have
With that end in view an independent
Republican ticket was fled with the cleo
tion board, as by law required, and
said. board did place that ticket upon
the ballot, with such notifications as
the law permitted and ten thousand or
more ballots were printed with our ticket
en- them.
Later on our ticket was ordered
stricken from the ballot by the Repub-
hcan members Of the election board at
the command Of Lily White Boss Harry
Hendrickson, chairman OF the Marion
County Republican committee, the same
boss who ordered the Republican county
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1920-10-29

who allow a negroes name to be balloted
on for Governor of Arkansas.
Ben Tillman once said: IF negro
men were as courageous as negro women
the whites of the South would not be
able to humble them as they do
VIII negro women of Marion County
vote for men who deny them and their
boys and girls their place in the sun !?
Will they vote for rulers who ravish the
race of that which Is as dear as virtue
the sacred right TO the ballot for their
kind?
Negro men and negro women must
hear the truth, Jnat our movement has
not been connected with the Democratic
party and has had no financial hacssng,
the expense being borne by two mem
bers Of the committee signing this; that
our ticket was not ruled out because Of
lack Of legal signers or because IL
failed to comply with the law in any
respect. 1t was thrown out at the com
mand of lily white boss. and the court
refused 10 interfere because of a tech
nicality so fne that we can't see it.
Right here we wish to read into the
record our most respectful and fervid
criticism OF the courts gratuitous ef-
fort to read us out OF the Republican
party and brand us as trying TO set
up new party-this Is In the face of the
fact that we point with pride GA to a
lifetime of loyalty to the Republican
party. and IN face of the fact that we
ticket, except the candidates Of the Ma
rion County Republican organization
which organization Is opposed TO a
square deal for every one.
1t matters not If negroes are too ig-
nOrant or too selfish or too cowardly to
acknowledge 1t, one fact is paramount
namely: negroes owe 1t to themselves and
their posterity to vote for Republican
presidential electors, for the Republican
Candidates for the Senate and the House
Of Representatives. for the Republican
candidates for Governor and State of
fees. then scratch, scratch. scratch the
Republican county ticket, the sponsors
for which ravish negroes of the right TO
realize their worthy ambition to be men
and women in the highest and best
meaning of those words.
Respectfully,
(Signedl
JAMES R. NoRRELL, NJ. D.,

commissioners to refuse to appoint q
negro justice of the peace in violation
of a written promise and who is head
of the political machine that counted
out Doctors Norrel and Williams in two
primaries.
HIGH-HANDED
TREATMENT.
Finding ourselves treated in such a
high handed and Illegal manner by the
election board and its boss, we decided
10 mandate the board Of election com
missioners and compel them TO place our
ticket upon the ballot.
ne iHy white boss at once employed
the Hon. James a. Bingham, former at
torney general OF Indiana: the Hon.
and professor in the Indiana Law School
Of Indiana University, and the Hon.
Charles .. Roemler, another corporation
lawyer, TO use their combined talent
to prevent our ticket from being placed
upon the ballot to be voted for on Nov,
., 1920, and for three days the legal battle
was waged against one negro lawyer.
SO difficult was the problems presented
that the court said. in substance, after
the trial, that this case had caused him
more mental worry than any case that
had zone before him.
We only know we were kept off the
ticket
And SO ended the first attempt of
negroes in the North to place an In
dependent Republic ticket in the field.
The ballot carries FIVE tickets and
three of them were filed under the same
law and IN the same manner that the
Independent Republican ticket was fled
The lily white Republicans allowed
those tickets to go upon the ballot for
the white constituents OF those parties
to vote upon, law or no law; but negroes,
with their unbroken record of loyalty to
the party of the bosses; negroes. who
have lost all chance OF consideration at
the hands OF other parties, on account
of their loyalty to the Republican party;
negroes. who have swallowed promises
made and broken by their white Re
publican bosses for fifty years, those
negroes may not have 4 chance to vote
for members of their own race: those
negroes must be sandbagged into sub
mission TO the dictates OF their bosses
Compare this boss's actions with the
action of the authorities in Arkansas.
