AT the present time il is we'll tina

right OF our franchise There are al
present few screws loose in the run.
ming gear of politics. The Negro has
IN a measure followed the Republican
party blindly. A new despensation is
upon US. In the wake of our progress
much philosophy is needed in the
analysis OF our status as an elemnet OF
force. Every one knows why the
Negro has and is clinging to the G.
0. P. The other parties have not made
as serious bid for our political SUD-
port as the Republican party, nor has
any effective legislation been enacted
by any other party in prospect of max
ing situations, or conditions more fav-
orable for US. Yet in the same degree,
the Negro has been true to the prin-
ciPles of city. state, and National pol
itics, he has been deceived and bungled
with by the fellows he has helped to
the electorate.
Recently he has been deserted, it
seems, by the president, even by the
mayor of our city whom the race has
at times almost worshipped. When
the mayors and governors of many
states have given voice to the feelings
on the hellish marauders of society
itself your mayor refused to have any
thing to say against the Ku Klux Klan.
1t may be that his silence was golden,
rather than to give the khan any dig
nihed notice he kept his peace. We
are not shrewd enough in the wiles of
politics to analyze the significance of
such stolid silence on the part of our
boasted friend entrenched it seems in
great power by our unanimous vote.
But one thing the race must not
forget, and that white men have never
yet shown much political preference to
Negroes. Mayor Thompson has come
nearer doing so than any we have vet
seen. Anyhow we are reminded that
a few political jobs do not absolve our
mayor, nor our president from the OBJ /
legation they owe the great masses of
human beings of the city and nation
IN spite of the difference in races and
color. Next Spring the politicians are
coming again to US to tell US a few
Of their dadgasted lamentations. They
carry a certain kind of hypnotism
which they have become experts in ex-
ercising, and there is the same prob
ability that we will yell ourselves
noarse as we have for more than fifty
years. Then the spellbinders go home
to sleep and dream of a great host of
black idiots scrambling to get to the
'aliot box.

Perhaps Not.

An instructor in a church school
where much attention was paid to sa-
cred history, dwelt particularly on the
phrase, "And Enoch was not, for God
took him." So many times was this
repeated in connection with the death
OF Enoch that he thought even the
dullest pupil would answer correctly
when asked in an examination: State
in the exact language of the Bible
what is said of Enoch's death.
But this is the answer he got:
"Enoch was not what God took him
for" Life.

USURPATIoN AND BRUTALITY
By DR.. M. A. Majors.

The American people are up against
very hard proposition. The Ku Klux
Klan is emphasizing the fact that our
present Interpretation of the law is
wrong. Now the Ku Klux Klan as
sumes sort of plenary power granted
it neither by Jehovah, nor public SEN
timent, and its great and glorious bur-
den is ito protect the weak, and help
less" If It had said the defenseless it
would have been better, but the Negro
is the defenseless; it would direct all
of its venality against the defenseless.
1t cherishes tender names for the
weak and helpless" OF course we
all know that the white women of
America can be assailed, outraged,
mistreated, and cruelty abused by the
white men.
Millions are being mistreated by
white men, but they are not lynching
white men for such bastard crimes.
Many of these millions of white men
who are daily and hourly assaulting
white women and girls, colored women |
and girls, only need to use a little SCOT
or creased paint on their faces and |
hands and their disguise is complete.
1t is then quite easy to lay it at the
door of some poor unfortunate Negro.
The Negro cannot change the color
Of his skin but the white man can, and /
herein lies the white mans alibi.
We used to have notions that to be
white meant to be good. Now that is
spoiled. We have awakened from our
dreams that were once so splendid, and
we fnd that the criminal records of
The white race stand as an everlasting
against it in every civil
zed nation where language is used to
Express the nature of the human heart.
The Ku Klux need be given no consid-
ration; they have destroyed them

THE SHICK TEST.

1t has been found by use OF the
Schick test that at birth about IS pei
cent of infants are naturally immune
against diphtheria; that at aboutS six
months OF age a decided change oc-
ours in that a great many infants be-
Gin to lose this natural immunity and
that at the age of one year, most OF
the infants have lost it.
From this evidence it seems clear
that little further improvement in the
reduction OF the mortality and espe-
cially of the morbidity of diphtheria
is TO be expected, unless it be possible
to increase the resistance of young
children against this disease by active
| immunization and at a time when the
human organism is just beginning to
lose its natural immunity.
This means in plain, understandable
English that every child between the
ages of six months and six years
should be given the toxin-antitoxin
treatment in order to protect it against
diphtheria, in much the same way as
vaccination against smallpox prevents
that disease. And this is why the
general use of toxin-antitoxin for pre-
ventive purposes IS being urged by
health departments generally through
out the country. In many cities where
the appropriations are not adequate
to permit the health departments to
furnish the toxin-antitoxin free, ar
rangements have been made to fur
nish II at cost. The Chicago Depart
ment of Health. however, is able to
furnish this treatment without cost to
the school children and it is also given
at the Infant Welfare Stations. Par
ents desiring to have their children
mot of school age) treated should con-
suit their family physician, or if un-
able to employ a physician, call the
of Health.
The active immunization of a child |
against diphtheria by the use of toxin
antitoxin is a simple operation, prac-
tically painless, and attended with little
Dr. no danger. The Commissioner of
Health believes that, with the light
we now have. if the diphtheria cases
and deaths are to be materially re-
iuced, this desirable result can only
,e accomplished through the general
lse of toxin-antitoxin as a preventive
Measure. And he, therefore, urges the
of Chicago to have their chill ,
iren so protected by the use of this =,
low tested and practically universally :
accepted agency.
Diphtheria is a dangerous disease
I killed 600 children in Chicago last
ear. 1t can be prevented by having
our child treated with toxin-antitoxin.

A MONEY TALK.
By DR.. NJ. A. Majors.

How much benefit does person re-
ceive from the money they have made
by hard work, if such hard work wa:
merely the subterfuge to procure
gaudy 'habiliments, and good time?
1t is always much better to have
money to buy what you want. 1t is
far better to have it to buy what you
need. 1t is another thing to circum-
scribe your wants to your real needs.
Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Booker T.
Washington did, and that is why we
read so much about them. Money is
often easily made, but is very hard
task to keep It until it works for you.
If you learn how to keep money it
will learn how to keep you. OF course
a lot of very good sense is always re-
quired to carry forward any right
principle.
Most of the misery in the world
today is caused from not having sense
to operate with. Any one can accumu-
late money if only they would study
how to save some of the nickels,
dimes and even pennies which seem
to be of so small use. We must re-
member that Woolworth built the
taIlest building in the world with the
ten cent store.
Are we as a race keeping pace with
the general trend of the rapid deve1-
opment and progress of the world?
How many of US are going forward?
How many of us are just moving
along so slowly that we fail to note |
any progress at an? Who of US are
standing still or going back year in
and year out? Dressing we'll has
its efficacy, but unless a man has
enough money lain aside drawing in
terest sufficient to keep him looking
gaudy he can not afford to do it. If
you are working on a salary, and you
are spending what you make to dress
up you are not going forward, nor
are you making any progress. We
spend many millions of our dollars in
trying to make an outward show which
IS not by any means beneficial Only
the things that endure are of any con-
sequence, and style, fashions and
gaudy show are only transitory,
change, wear and waste. 1t would be {
a great blessing if this idea could take $

deep root in the Negro heart. We
could boast of our millionaires, and
take our rightful place among the ma
tions of the earth. We would cease

we have to bear just because we refuse
to be frugal, and sensible in handling
our money.
