WHERE SHALL WE GO?

Following is editorial Chicago Defender that
believe will be of interest to readers The article follows
IN VIEW OF THE ATTITUDE and indicated tendencies of
the present national administration which is
for and represent the Republican party and which
cusabe and ndefenbe the question that naturally presents
itself is what shall and where shall we go? The attitude
and tendencies referred would indicate that our
in the Republican party longer desredha the fun
damena principles and doctrines which constituted
the principal difference between the major parties are to be
repudated and abandonedthat the party longer the
and representative of those who believe equal civil and
political rights national supremacy and impartial enforcement
of the laws of the land play square deal for all
and loyal American citizens regardless of nationality
religion.
IF THIS BE TRUE the Republican party today viii have
further claim this American electorate
These voters remained loyal to the Republican party until the
Inauguration of the nwe and unfortunate policy of the Taft
administration which the present administration seems to have
inherited.
THE SUGGESTION from certain quarters that we
align ourselves with and support ndscmnatey the candidates
OF the Democratic party if for other than spirit
of retaliation and This believe the proper
course to pursue Life too short and time valuable fight
battles of retaliation and revenge What want is to bring
about practical results for the future and not punish for
mistakes of the past Then again. overlook the fact
that the Democratic party organization primarily re-
sposibe for the major part of the and njuses
which we are subjected This however true of all
bers of the party.
THERE ARE OTHERS who suggest that we as separate
and distinct group organize of This not only
lmprdent nudcous and unwise but suicidal Whatever
do and whatever action take must be
on with white Americans who accord with us in the adj
vocacy OF principles and doctrines believe be paramount
and VITAL The formation of party upon would place
us in the attitude of supporting encouraging what we de-
nounce in others.
THEN AGAIN advise that we join the Socialists and
other minor parties What should to ally ourselves with
no party but maintain position of strict independence with
view of voting in the future for individuals than parties
In other words should longer candidate be-
cause ne labeled Republican and against another he
labeled Democratic something ele make the attitude
OF the candidates questions paramount and vital
the controlling factor in casting our votes
The COURSE will reegang to private
life those who the machinery of the Repub
cn party and by whom the principles and doctrines of
that party being betrayed sacrificed In that event
the Republican party OF the future again become medium
through which this great voters above referred to
give expression to their views sentiments

PASADENA ROSE
 FESTIVAL PULLS MONSTER CROWD
East vs. West Football Game Main Attraction-Cali-
 fornia Meets Ohio.

PASADENA, Calf, Jan. 1.-All roads in Southern California today led to Pasadena, where the thirty second annual Tournament of Roses attracted a crowd estimated at 50o, 900. Flowers in countless profusion decorated the floats in the mann moth street parade. The main cen ter of attraction today was the ln- tersectional football game between Ohio State University and the Uni versity of California this afternoon. which is expected to be attended by 32, ,000 people.
 The third annual tournament ball will be held tonight.
 The football elevens representing Ohio State University, champions Of the Western Conference, and the University of California, champions of the Pacific Coast Conference, are battling for supremacy on Tourna- ment Field this afternoon. The game marks the sixteenth East vs. West contest between America s best foot ball teams of the past ? years.
 Betting on the outcome of today's game is about even. California is possessed of the best team developed on the Coast in years and one cap able of holding its own with any team in the country. It is strong both on offense and defense and is well prepared to meet the famed aerial attack of the Ohioans.
 Ohio State is also a well-balanced aggregation. The team has lost only one game in the past three years, and that by a narrow margin at the hands of Illinois last year. It has not run up as big scores as has the Coast opponent this year, but that may be on account of the tal- ent being more equally distributed in the schools making up the West ern Conference. As a matter of fact, Ohio State won the champion ship this ceason with a total of only 37 points
 Neither team seems to be suf- fering from over-confidence and each holds it's rival in deep respect Both elevens are in splendid condi- tion, and the losers will have no apologies to offer.
