Dr.. George e. Cannon, physician,
and a national leader of The Repub-

livered speech seconding the nom.
nation of Calvin Coolidge at the
C'eve and Convention last Spring,
died Sunday morning at his home,
here at he age of Sc. -.
His death was due 20 injuries re-

receiving conclusion of the brain.
He rallied for time following the
accident but sank rapidly after mid

in 1900 at New York Pathological
College. For the last thirty-three
years he had resided in Jersey City
In the primaries of April, last year
he received the largest number Of

ASLEEP AT THE SWITCH.
3-THE POLITICAL HORIZON
ASLEEP AT THE SWITCH.

Through the courtesy of press conterrl-
porary OUR attention has been again drawn to
decision of the United States Supreme Court
in which it was held that a Delaware Court
erred in refusing to quash an Indictment
against William Neal, Negro, who made
legal objection to the State Constitution which
restricted service on trial juries to whites only
Though the time of this decision was as far
back as 1880, Immediately following similar
finding in the case Of Strauder against West
Virginia and Rves against Virginia, it is OBJ
vious that the decision holds good today and
that Delaware Negroes have slept on their
rights in submitting to non-jury service rather
than invoking the findings of the i. S. Sill
preme Court and using every means at their
disposal to see that State laws and customs
are kept in harmony with, and not in CONTRA
vention to, the law as announced from the
bench of Our highest tribunal.
That Negroes are entitled to sit upon Della
ware juries goes without saying and it is
equally true that the Negro candidate for d
place in the Delaware legislature last fall, was
sidetracked by technical instrulnentalities Of
evasion, needs no proof. In the same way
there are dozens of remedies for other grievous
wrongs inflicted by oppressors of the minority
race in this country. Lack of diligence and
initiative are poor tools with which to break
down prejudice. Howling over mistreatment
when the KEY to unlock the door of oppreSs-
ion is lying close by within arms reach, is
poor business
Financial contributions and platform ora
tory mean little when there are effective rene
dies Of combat. which are going to mould and
decay because Of non-use. MandamuseS and
ether effective writs if carried through to a
finish, are worth ten nights on an auditorium
stage. Did Neal and Strauder and Rives' AMI
the dozens of other Negroes who fought their
fights through TO the u. S. Supreme Court
in the late seventies and early eighties have
more tenerity and manhood than we of today
If so. then it is time for us to migrate far
away from the rights of free country, and
once again enter serfdom, protesting neither
against its trials nor benoaning Our fate.
