PfflONIZE OUR 01B
TO HELP 1
(Preston News Servlco.) I
Cleveland., Ohio, Sept. 22.?There Is
a great deal of talk tunoug Negroes all j
over the country about tho necessity'
of patronizing raco enterprises. \
great many of those wlro do tho most
talking alxiut this do not always praiv-,
tico what they proa oh. But UiVjy are
constantly lamenting the fact that,
there are so few opportunities for Mk '
trained young man and woman of color
to find some<hing to do; and are con
stantly "cursing? out the white rac?(
because they will not givo Negroes
equal opportunities. There is nothing,
then left for us to do but create bus!of
rmr nivn mul ninlrn thofln nl?
portunitles for our own young peopl.v
To do this we must patronize our own
young pcioplo. To do this wo must pat
ronize our own race institutions.
Anent this phase of our lifo in America
E. D. Canady lias the following to
say editorially in the Portland:, (Oregon)
Advoente of which lio is editor.
"We were rocontly very much inter
osted in a discussion wo overheard
among a number of our pooplo a? to
wftiy they didn't patronize colored bui-V
nessmen. Ono said 1iJb reason for no\
patronizing our colored groceries was
that once upon a time a colored merchant
"short-changed" him. And from
that timeon he would nover trade with
a colored man. We wonder if some
wliite merchant hasn't cheated this
man out of more than did the colorcd
businessman? However, it is interestnote
that he did not say he
would not patronize another white
businessman. Another salid: "I would,
not putt my money in a colored hank .
for any consideration.' When askfd
his reason lie said, 'Now didn't the
I'Toedman's bank in Washington, 1).
0.. go broke and a lot of colored people
loose their money? And didn't Jolin
M'ltcheli's bank in Richmond, Va?
close?" j
Perhaps this coloro<l brother badn , I
hoard of the number of banks operated
by whites wlijeh had been closed, cans
ing thousands of people <to lose their
money, lliglit here in Portland the
State Hank has recently gone out of
business, leaving many of its patron?
in poor financial circumstances. B
no one has hoard any sensible person
say that ho would not deposit any
more mjoney in white banks. This
same colored man, if he hind any
would bo found in the front lino in a
money id deposit in a bank, we wager
whijte bank. {
Another's excuse for not going to.
rooming lioifses or hotels conducted by I
Negroes was tihat colored people who I
run hotels talke<l too much ajul want'
to know all about, one's business. Now
there may be some truth in the last
oxc?i.so. But let them ta,lk, It will do

Willit tho colored raco needs Is to
patronizo each othor more, in all sorts
of bugiitesq, for it is only in this way
wo can become a powor in tlio business

colored bua'ncssnuun is not up on all 1
