COUNTY SURVEYOR ENDORSED
BY THE GOODFELLOWS CLUB O.
ONE THOUSAND
The Goodfellows club of 100 has in
creased its number to 800 registere
of both democrats and republicans, TO
William "Bill" Green as County Su
vGyor.
MI. John A. Woods, president of tn
Club, says on investigation of the re
cords in Douglas County Court House
he cannot find the vouchers or pay
checker for the five Negroes that the
speaker at the 81" Garage claimed in
voters of the second and seventh ward
his talk, worked in the County Surve
or's office under the present County
Surveyor. Mr.. Woods says every Ne
gro in Douglas County should investi
gate the record of Bill Green for hi
qualifications and his fairness in givin
the Negroes f Omaha, not a z per CEN
but a IA per cent. Mr.. Green says tn
Negro has been kept out of his pre-
rata so long that if it is doubled, now
would be no more than fair. Mr.
Woods says Bill Green will carry tn
second third wards five to one.
The Goodfellows Club Of 1000 has
made a check of the candidates for
Public officers, having in mind at the
time of the investigation to acquain
the voting public Of the merits and
qualifications of the respective candi
dates.
Do you know that the three hundre
POSITIONS are available in the County
Surveyors office? At the present tim
none of these ppositions are held by
colored voter, caused by the fact tina
during the past IS years we have plac
ed a man in office who has turned hi
back on us when it came time to fill
these positions. Are we going to co
tinue to support men who do not Civ
US representation? The time ha
come for the colored voters of Oman
to SAY mo"
William "Bill" Green, has been fai
in the past, and we can depend upo
him in the future. Bill Green, durin
his IL yrs. as foreman of the Oman
Street Cleaning Department, unde
Dean Noyes, had employed more col
ored employees than any other depart
ment of our city government. Not be
cause they were colored, but because
as he says, they were dependable, an
rendered efficient service.
Bill Green says that if elected Com
ty Surveyor he will continue the sam
policy of giving colored voters their
share Of representation, and will b
given jobs based upon our ability t
perform them.
Such a fair statement deserves tn
support of every colored voter in tn
city and county. We, the Goodfellow
Club of 100, urge our friends to vote
and work on the election of Bill Gree
for County Surveyor of Douglas Cou
ty.
