POLITICAL POT-POURRI
The fur has begun to fly in the
conning campaign. Gov. Stephens
comes out in a letter flaying the last
Legislature for failure to reapportion
the State, calling his detractors
knaves and other harsh names, and
Assemblyman White comes back in
a stinging answer, so the war is on.
To add to the excitement, Theodore
Bell quits the Bourbons and joins
the G. O. P., giving as his reason
the attitude of the Democratic party
on the treaty.
• Congressman Kahn is opposed to
the bonus and possibly will have to
face opposition in his district this
fall; but the man who goes up
against Julius will have a fight on
his hands.
Our group in Charles Curry's
district will no doubt ask him to

There must be a scarcity of

It is unfortunate that Editor
B. J. Davis is warring on Henry
L. Johnson, the only race repre-
sentative we have on the national
committee. We know nothing of
the merits of the difference, but
we need all our energies to fight
the common foe, and can't afford
to divide our forces in the face of
our enemies. The dominant race
has been able to rule millions of
the dark races by dividing their
forces, and causing them to turn
against their brothers, and if we
are to get anywhere, our forces
must stand together.
W. M. Kennedy made applica
tion to the Retail Coal Dealers'
Association for membership,
which was duly filed and referred
to a committee, who failed to
report for over a month, and now
we are informed their report was
adverse. All Kennedy asked was
the privilege of buying coal from
the wholesalers that he might do
business, but he is turned down
by the white dealers, who are
afraid they will lose our group's
trade. And they call this a free
country. Let the race mark this
piece of injustice in Oakland.
Roscoe C. Simmons, writing in
the Chicago Defender, has a few
! things to say on Baclc to Africa—
An old friend, one of the stand-
by crowd in the Negro race,
writes: "Please say something
about how this Back-to-Africa
and Black-Star-Line business is
hurting our people all over, keep-
ing them out of jobs." There is
not much to say. The thing is
about dead—broke its own neck
trying to walk on its hands before
learning to walk on its feet.
The /Master said that the poor
we have with us always. Also
a lot of silly men and women.
"What fools these mortals be"
was never better exemplified to
our mind than in Nashville,
Tenn., when "Gipsy" Smith, the
evangelist, was holding services
and a revival there a short time
ago. Colored people who had a
soul to save were admitted to the
meetings if they would enter by
a rear door and be segregated
inside. The colored ministers of
Nashville entered a protest, and
won out by preventing the colored
race from attending at all. The
Gipsy Smith people then decided
to admit them through the door.
They went in large numbers and
the colored race subscribed over
$300, so we read. Say, that was
some religion they were preach-
ing. That was some money to
put in where they were not
wanted, and no doubt could have
been used in their own church—
and they were some fools.
