SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1900.
FOR PRESIDENT:
WILLIAM MCKINLEY,
of Ohio:
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT:
THEO. ROOSEVELT,
of New York.
The Atlanta Constitution says: "An
overwhelming majority of the South
ern people condemn the course of the
administration in the Philippines as
unnecessary, unjust and cruel. They
consider it an act of bad faith on the
part of our government, a departure
from its fundamental principles, a
prostitution of its powers and a great
wrong to the Filipinos that they have
not been given the same opportunity
for self-government which we have
promised the Cubans.'' This contiued

"The constituted authorities must
be cheerfully and vigorously upheld.
Lynching must not be tolerated in a
great and civilized country like the
United States. Courts, not mobs,
must execute the penalties of the law.
The preservation of public order, the
right of discussion, the integrity of
the courts and the orderly adminis
tration of justice must continue for
ever the rock of safety upon which
our government surely rests."
President William McKinleyfe Mes
sage to the 56th Congress.
WHAT BRYAN REFUSED TO DO.
Philip Jackson, an Afro-American
Democrat of Charleston, W. Va., ask
ed Bryan to sign the following:
"I DO NOT COUNTENANCE THE
JIM CROW LAW OR ANY OTHER
MEASURE THAT DISCRIMINATES
AGAINST ANY AMERICAN CITI-
ZEN ON ACCOUNT OF COLOR."
BRYAN REFUSED, SAYING: "I
DO NOT WANT ANY NEW ISSUES
INJECTED INTO THE CAMPAIGN."
The Chicago Chronicle, a leading
Democratic daily, refers to the Fili
pinos as a "parcel of saddle colored
niggers on the. other side of the
globe." The Democrats are using the
alleged woes of the Filipinos just now
during the campaign, but when the
election is over they will have no
more use for the brown men of the
Orient than they now have for the
black men of America.
Bishop Turner has issued his* long
looked for declaration for Bryan. 'He
says he is for Bryan because "he rep
resents the same broad principles that
Abraham Lincoln espoused." Abra
ham Lincoln gave liberty to 4,000,000
slaves. William Jennings Bryan rep
resents the party which has taken
liberty from 6,000,000 Afro-Americans
in the South.
clatter of the Democratic press about of Republicans. Senator Hanna is a
self-government is very tiresome, for level headed man. In order to win all
the reason that it comes from people
who have succeeded in wresting al
most every vestige of self-government
from the Afro-American of the South.
Chairman Hanna says the great crats gave the Afro-American Demo-
trouble in this campaign is the apathy crats some recognition in the way of
true Republicans must work and work
hard for the ticket. It was apathy
superinduced by overconfidence that
caused the defeat of the party in 1892.
In New York the Tammany Demo-
places in the^ public service, but failed
to protect the lives and property of
black citizens. TKe Democratic po
licemen were allowed to beat Afro
Americans to their hearts content.
At the recent Democratic prima
ries in South Carolina there were 84,-
000 votes cast by whites and of these
31,000 were registered against Till
man-s return to the Senate, It means
that Pitchfork Tillman is losing his
strength even among the South' Caro
lina whites who can stomach almost
anything.
Capital is as sensitive as virtue and
involuntary shrinks from whatever
would affect it. The combined capi
tal of the country recoils from Bryan
and views him with the same horror
that the image worshipers did the
Iconoclasts.
Bishop Turner declares that Lin
coln's mantle fits the shoulders of
Bryan. Lincoln and Bryan are as far
apart as the ends of the earth. It is
almost a sacrilege to compare Bryan
to the great Emancipator.
The Afro-Americans are laboring
people and they ought to be inter
ested in the kind of money they re
ceive for their labor. Honest toil
should receive as pay honest dollars,
not Bnyan currency.
Senator Tillman is the most abusive
speaker in Congress on any subject
concerning the Afro-American. Sen
ator Tillman is the man who will be

Bryan's adviser in case of Democratic
success.
There were 260 commissioned Afro
American officers in the Spanish-Am
erican war. These men were appoint
ed by McKinley and their pay
amounted to nearly one-half million
dollars.
The blood of thousands of innocent
Afro-Americans is upon Senator Till
man. Bloody butcheries of black men
have given him the place ne occupies.
Tillman is the back bone of the Bryan
party.
"The spirit of the Republican party
does/not know the white man nor the
black man: All stand equal before
it as they should stand equal before
the law."Hon. ilohn M. Langston.
The Democrats said that Maine
would protest against McKinley. The
"protest" came in the shape of
the largest Republican plurality, with
two exceptions, in its history.
There were 15,048 Afro-Americans
in the Spanish-American war. They
served under Afro-American officers
commissioned by a Republican Presi-
dentWilliam McKinley.,

official rewards for the great triumph
in 1896 with rare tact and judgment.
