pastor, left no stone unturned in
paying the proper homage and re-
speCt to such a devout Christian,
Now that the election is over, let's
direct our minds back to our streets
and sidewalks. We granted you {
weeks respite on the account of the
interest you seemed to manifest in the
election. We hope you got your man.
for we surely did get ours. We very
readily conccde to every man the
right to vote. But 1t matters very
little to us who the white man elects
to office, so long as we remain in
our present condition. Just so long
as we are devoid of race pride enough
to cause us to spend our money with
our own race; just so long as We
are minus of that civic pride to make
us see the necessity of improving
our real and personal property; just
so long will we be compelled to bring
up the rear of the procession. I'm
prove your sidewalks, beautify your
yards las you are now DOING, spend
your money with your race (especi-
ally when it brings the same returns)
and thereby build up recognitional
standing that will rank with the Other
races of the world Miss NJ o. John
