ing our readers and advertisers the

The Omaha Guide is the largest
Negro weekly west of Chicago and
north of Kansas City. 1t is also the
only Negro publishing plant in this
territory. Here are a few startling
facts: The Negro population of Omaha
proper is approximately 10000. They
spend annually $4,000, 10000 $4,000
of the consuming public, white and
colored read the Omaha Guide; the
average daily expenditure is about
$3.50 per person; the total daily ex-
penditure is about sos, 10000.
Mr. c. c. Galloway has contribu-
ted more to our race han any other
Negro in our state. He is respected
by all races; and for twenty-one years,
he has served zealously and unsel6sh-
ly. There has never been any liquida-
ton, split-up, or change OF manage
ment; he has devoted his life to the
public's welfare, giving his time and
services to charitable organizations
and the needy. l have just been in
formed hat he is entering the race
for the state legislature. What a grand
testimonial it would be if the Negro
voters banded together and gave him
their support 100 per cent. Can you
honestly name one among us who is
more deserving?
