Sam Lamping is member of
pioneer family moving from Indiana
to Seattle forty-three years ago. Ed
ucated in Seattle grade, high schools
and University of Washington. Now
engaged in insurance business.
Member of the House of Repre-
sentatives in the twenty-second Leg
islature, January 12-March IL, 1881.
Voted against every bill proposing
new methods for raising taxes. The
Legislative records disclose a con-
sIstent mo" voting on every pro-
posal to give tax-spending branches
of government additional revenue
without any resultant decrease in the
present exorbitant real-estate taxes.
Fought for reduced budgets of State
Departments, and voted against
measures that meant increased cost
of City, County and State expenses.
A record as one of the few who
took a positive stand on all issues, in
keeping with the majority wishes of
the residents of the District without
regard to political consequences.
The next Legislature will be faced
with much proposed legislation of
the most radical character, and some
Of it has strong, though misguided
support. 1t is incumbent upon wage
earners and business men to com
bine in selecting candidates who will
meet all issues fearlessly.
Clear thinking and firmness are
needed in the Legislature to offset
the constant onslaught Of lobbyists
and special privilege seekers who
publicly propose tax reduction but
secretly attempt legislation for self
.sh purposes with resultant inereaseu
tax burdens TO citizens ct large.

Edgar R. Peoples is man to
whom all can trust their rights.
During the past three years, while
our earnings have been greatly re-
duced and we have been forced to
economize in every way, we have
seen the cost of government and our
tax bills steadily increasing.
That has convinced most of US that
many of the politicians who have
been spending our money recklessly
should be replaced by new men who
have proven in private life that they
have the experience and ability nee
essary to get one hundred per cent
value out of the money they spend;
men with the experience, ability and
courage to cut the waste out of Gov
eminent and reduce the heavy tax
alton which is retarding the return
of prosperity.
Peoples business interests consist
of the Cedar Mountain coal mine,
where he has maintained large pay
roll during the term of depression;
large dairy ranch near Monroe,
Snohomish County, and Seattle real
estate. His time for the past three
years has been devoted mainly to
keeping his coal mine in operation,
in which he has been successful
Peoples has also been active in the
dairy business and served as pres
ident of the Seattle Milk Shippers
Association during 192S-29. His
dairy ranch has been a success.
In both business and private life,
Peoples has shown deep sympathy
for those less fortunate than himself
and is man whom all can trust to
deal fairly with human rights and
interests, as member of the legisla-
ture. a.

A Darkey Drawl

Describing Haitian scientific ex-
petition made by Herbert w. Krieg-

States National Museum, Lucy Sala-
manca, white, makes two typical
utterances in the August number
of the National Republic.
For example, Miss Salamanca ad-
mits that Christophe, the second en-
peror of Haiti, built the most
ornate and commodious govern
ment house in the Western hemi.
sphere and in the next breath rid
icules this black ruler because he
established nobility including
dukes, counts, barons and princes
of royal blood
The second typical utterance de-
scribes the language of hte Haitianl
as a "patois of French and African
terms uttered in the soft drawl OF
the darkey."

Better Keep Hoover

Reviewing the past record of the
two parties; when it comes to taking
care of the affairs of this govern
ment and the attitude toward the
Negroes, we find these conditions.
In the past siXty-seven years we have
had two democratic presidents. Gro
Yer Cleveland was the first one.
when he left the White House it took
the Republican party about eight
years of hard labor to put this gov
eminent again on sound basis of OPP
Grafton.
The Gold Standard was fought
with free coinage of silver sixteen to
one, and the tariff with free trade
because they could work the Negroes
in the South for far less wages than
were paid in Europe, and ship and
sell their products at a reasonable
profit, Placing the farmer, the lab
orer and the industry at the mercy
of foreign productions. The Repub-
hcan party was able to defeat these
measures.

In the face of these things Negroes should work
hard and seriously prevent Democrats from gain
ing control of the National Government
Is It wise to strengthen the forces of your known
enemy? II you fighting a war, would YOU send
guns and man power to help your opponent fasten
the chains tighter around your neck?
This is what you would be doing If you voted
for the Democratic Party in the present National
election. Every vote for Roosevelt and Garner gives
more power to Helm and Huey Long, Blease and
Robinson. Every for the Democratic nominees
adds more power to the very forces which
sponsibe for every statute which segregaes and dis
franchises colored citizens.
1t is not sensible to help your enemy to destroy
you. And neither is it sensible Negroes to vote
for the party which is constantly trying to destroy

Taxpayers are complaining about
these high taxes. They want to be
relieved; and vet in the same breath
they ask Congress for stupendous
building programs, new postoffices
and soldiers bonus, and relief.
Now, governments have no magic
way of bringing money out of high
hat. The expenses of government
can only be derived through some
form of revenue or taxation. If the
federal government adds four .bil-
lions of dollars-the sum it would
take to pay the bonus-and the bill
lions of dollars that it would take to
give federal relief to the unemployed,
to its already staggering expense, the
result is going to be greater tax
bill.

his credit, ordered the locks broken,
entered with two hundred eolored

We Are Tax Ridden
We are a tax-ridden people!


The seriousness of this fact was
brought most forcibly to the minds
of the masses by B. C. Forbes in an
article written for the November
Cosmopolitan. He pointed out that
the annual tax-bill of the United
States is fourteen billions of dollars.
The tremendousness of that sum
is clarified by other smaller figures
which show that each family pays
five hundred dollars yearly, in some
form, for taxes; and that the entire
country pays 1859, 230,769 every
week and s44,87l,794 every day.
These almost inconceivable sums rep
resent the annual costs of govern
ment.

Another piece of news will interest
those that write the history of the
Christian" church. The fashionable
"All Souls" Episcopal church in New
York was padlocked because its rec
tor insisted on allowing negroes to
come in and hear him preach. The
respectable vestry demanded separ.
ate services for blacks and whites,
and padlocked the door.

King George create his dukes and
counts even today?

No man since the day of the i'm
mortal Lincoln has had the task that
President Hoover has with foes with
in and without his party. He has
proven to be the real man for the
President at such time as this. No
sensible man can hold him respon
sible for the worlds depression. Let
us look to Mr.. Hoover as fearless
administrator of the affairs of this
country, for the betterment of the
nation, and vote for the man that
has proven worthwhile.

Those who would have Congress
dole out money to the unemployed,
build great waterways, or pay out
huge sums to soldiers mi"ht not be
so eager if they stopped to consider
that every five cents increase in gov
ernmental expense adds to the al
ready staggering burden of fourteen
billions of dollars under which Amer
leans strain.
The governments bills must be
paid. The money must come from
somewhere; and those who would
add to those bills should ask them
selves the question who's going to
pay?"

No matter how indirectly taxes
are levied, they are paid by the peo-
pie. If the government taxes cigars,
cigarettes or gasoline, these taxes
are not paid by the great corpora
tons who manufacture the taxed
products, but by the people. The
government must have money to do
these things for which the people
clamor; and always, these expenses
are passed on to the weary taxpayer.
There is no other way. Hence, people
who clamor for added financial bur-
dens upon the federal government
would do well to remember the fact
that every additional expense finds
its way back to the taxpayer in some
form.

clared war time prohibition that
gave birth to the Eighteenth Amend

question of the Negroes constitu-

The people of the country want
the Eighteenth Amendment taken
out of the Constitution.
That was evidenced in the re-
cent election, both in the selec-
ton of members of Congress and
the referenda held in IL States.
It is now proposed that repeal
Of the Eighteenth Amendment be
submitted to State conventions.
While I favor repeal, I believe
that the resolution should be sub
mitted to legislatures instead of
conventions.
The reason is that the only
argument for conventions is to
give the people an opportunity to
pass upon the question to be sub
1nitted. Since the recent election
was so overwhelmingly in favor
of repeal, as shown in the election
Of the national ticket and mem

Mr.. Garry said that no decision

the regulations drawn for the

At the Christian Heurich plant
the belief was expressed that
2.75 per cent beer would sell
better than beer with a higher
alcoholic content.
DR.. P. B. Dunbar, of the Food

connection with legalized beer.
No Experts Left
It had been SO long since beer
was handled by the Food and Drug

were no experts on beer in the or.
ganiZation, and no preparations
would be made to deal with it un-
til the intentions of Congress be-
came known.
In general, ale is a pale liquor,

is a light-colored and highly
effervescent beer.
At the peak of production in
