lager brewed in this part Of the country -.
and there is no better beer anywhere, at any
price! That's why it's far and away the fast
est selling beer in Maryland and the District
of Columbia combined!
Millions of real beer drinkers have found
that Gunther's is better for them, because it
doesn't give them that "filled up" feeling -.
because it is not sweet. not heavy. Gunther's
ported premium beers are more dry and berry!
But, you don't have to pay premium prices for
Gunther's. 1t doesn't cost you penny more
than regular beer! !! Next time, order Gunther's,
and drink beer that never changes al
ways the same dry, berry Gunther flavor! |!

Economy More Than Polite Will
Dictate Negro Vote In Election

How will the Negro vote In the
coming election. why:
These questions are posed 10 the
minds OF every Negro by an arti-
Gle in the current issue OF the Sat-
urday Evening Post by Or. Stanley
High The article forms the second
OF a series OF two in the Post.
Or. High describes at length the
formation OF Negro Belt OF
voters. and explains the forces that
swung large portion OF voters
from the Republican party to the
democratic rolls in 1886 But that.
says Or. High. is no sure indica-
ton that the preponderance OF the
Negro vote will again be Democra-
tic in 1888 or 1912
Economic Question
According TO pr. High. the trend
OF the Negro vote is likely TO be
dictated more by economic than
political considerations. In other
words. he thinks that the Negro
will vote for whatever party seems
most likely TO give him the best
economic breaks.
The last three elections, and
particularly 1886 he says, "indi-
Gated that the Negroes are likely TO
continue 20 vote together. In 1895.
they moved. bag and baggage, into
the Democratic camp. But II Is a
long jump from that fact TO the
conclusion that they can be count
ed upon 10 park there indefinitely.
In view OF what is stirring in the
Negro community. 1t is
exceedingly unlikely that the Ne
gro voter can be counted on 10 park
any where indefinitely
Behind this, says the author. Is
