What Other Editors Say
THE BONUS

The act OF the National Hoyse
Representatives In passing the DO
nus legislation which would cali
for the payment OF $1,000. 600. 10000
IN greenbacks, is all right IL u
would stick. For surely this vast
amount would go long way In
the humiliation of Old Man De-
preston. But the big question
arises, IL IL is but a political ges-
ture? II is to be remembered every
Congressman must face the peo-
pie this year of our Lord, 1884. The
veterans are power In deciding
whether they shall return or not,
and this Is declared by many to be
the motive power which secured a
large vote In favor OF the bonus.
II is said while house members
voted for the bill. they know II will
never pass the Senate, and IL IL
succeeded there 1t would be by
such a slim margin that no hope
could possibly lie in overcoming
the Presidents veto, which Is GER
tain and sure II the bill ever
reaches him.
Therefore under these circum-
stances the hopes for the bonus
law are slim indeed and another
day will have to come for the de-
serving soldiers to get what they
are justly entitled TO and what by
all means they should have. For
surely, IL our government would
dump 20 billion or more to send
them over the seas to be killed, i
surely could AFFORD to spend two
or three billion that they might
live at home and be happy that
their own country showed them
this mark of appreciation.

PROMINENCE IN SPORT
by Clifford C. Mitchell

Perhaps the colored brother has
brought more favorable comment
to himself and the race, during the
week. in the field OF sport than In
any other activity. II really does
feel fine TO pick up the white dali
lies and there see pictures, news
items, and praises from white col
umnists, on the supremacy OF
some of our athletes who seem to
have taken the spotlight during
the past week.
With Willis Ward starring for
the University OF Michigan; Alva
Jackson starring for Michigan
State; Ralph Metcalfc for Mar
quette; Young LuValle In southern
California, aud three colored lads
winning three OF the eight champ
ionships in the Golden Gloves Tt
tie bouts here In Chicago, the
race has secured more favorable
publicity In one week than is pos
sible To obtain through the united
efforts of all our propaganda or
ganizations and their publicity
releases combined. And in the flu
ture years we expect TO read much
more of these three lads who have
just won amateur boxing champ
ionships. namely. Jesse Levels,
Flyweight, of Cleveland. Ohio;
Joe Louis Light Heavyweight, of
Detroit. Michigan, and Otis Thorn
as, Heavyweight. of Chicago.
SO far, the responses TO Con-
gresham DePriest's efforts to Sc
cure the cooperation of 145 other
Congressman In signing his Pc
tition, seem TO be somewhat un-
favorable, and already a spirit OF
