Blease Warns Southerners

WASHINGTON, "a. N. P)--Cole
Blease, U. S. Senator from South
Carolina, warned southerners against
opposing the seating Of Senator-elect
Smith and Senator-elect Ware, in the
United States Senate, declaring that
they might set a precedent to bar
themselves because Negroes are kept
from voting.

You kept up with the doings of
the Committee in the daily press but
the daily press could not report the
spirit of the committee. Under that
true son of New England, William
NJ. Butler, the G. o. p. is on its way
back to first teachings. 1t is long
lane that has no turning.
Ladies, note for you. Two in
telligent, charming ladies, Mrs:
George S. Williams, of Georgia and
Mrs. Mary c. Booze, of Mississippi,
represented you among the Nations
women of wealth, education, char
acter. They showed the Importance
of putting your best foot forward.
Ladies, keep up with Ruth Hanna
Mccormick, who mixes brains with
woman's smiles and marches thru
this world.

2 Get an idea of the changes in
this life in the fact that the ma
tional Committee of the Republican
Party could meet and find no "Ne-
gro" from North Carolina, Texas,
Virginia, Florida, Arkansas, Alabama
or South Carolina, even there to
look on. That means that the people
in these states have given. up the

2 In wear. to come President
Coolidge's speeches will receive more
attention than now. This humble
writer knows how little you think OF
your President. You are put out
with him not so much on account
of his refusal to open the door that
Wilson closed and Harding locked
but because though from New Eng
land he won't open the door.
Keep this in mind, the President
appoints only after others recon-
mend. Consider that thought and
look up those who run the organ
ization of your party. Ask them
how about a colored man for such
and such a position.
Now for a recent speech by Mr..
Coolidge who burns the midnight OIL
He was addressing an audience at
Washington's Monument the other
day when Mexico presented stone
| to be placed in that imposing strue-
ture. Listen to your President;
| "Our Union of states is like Q
| family. Each member has its own
| distinctive characteristics and indi-
viduality, but each is bound to the
| Otner, not diOnc ny INC PAN'iS'~..'
Of the Constitution, but by senti'
ment of mutual respect and re.
CARDS. While each must maintain
! he own peculiar functions and SOW
ereipnty, each must observe the
rights Of the others to the extent
that each has consented to abide by
4 the general charter under which We
i exist"
Fine words; apt description, elk,
n family" your president says OF
your country. Have you not seer
one family produce lawyers, preach
ers. desperadoes, teachers, anS
. highwaymen? SO with the states, a
you ses.

Take a look at Congress. Two
United States Senators, Ware, of
Pennsylvania and Smith, of Illinois,
are fought by democrats because
these gentlemen spent money in
their campaigns for the honor Of
sitting in the Senate. So it is said.
The democrates, the lazy white
mans crowd, are mad because Mr..
Ware and Mr., Smith HAD money
to spend. Keep an eye on WASH
ington. All your hopes are there.

1. These few lines are written in
Washington, Capital of your country.
When was Washington settled, and
by whom? You know ofcourse for
whom it was named. II has name
above all eathly names, bar one.
IL is a sin and shame that Wash
ington is where it is but Uncle Sam
is resigned to his fate and will have
to do the best he can in his home
town.
Get one of the children to give a
short sketch of Washington. If he
or she is old enough to carry on a
conversation and unable to talk on
Washington, send teacher a note.
When teacher gets back from the
card game or cabaret, you may re-
ceive an answer.
The National Committee of the
G. o. P. met the other wek. A
meeting of the Republican party is
as important to you as q Baptist
convention or a Methodist confer
ence. The G. o. p. gave your child
rem earthly freedom. The Methodist
conference and the Baptist conven-
ton offer you eternal joy.
Every child should be taught the
history of the G. o. p. Did not that
party give that child the right to be
taught from any book? The repub-
lican party has deserted US, so many
say. No, not at all. No party can
do more for FREE men than they
will do for themselves. Is not that
truth?
