.Jegro Wo'ortrow Wtlnon l<cnguc sets
forth the reasons why the voters of

The address Is Issued from the national

The lddresn sets forth the reason
w'h> the negro has been aligned with
the Republican party. and who bo
should ho longer be so ullgned. It Is
Beginning .,r Vlliuuee.
nl
negro Dice as the result of the recent
War Between the States, the negro,
emerging as he did from slavery, and
with no clear conception of the genius
"f government, naturally allied him?
self with that party v,hi< h he believed
was responsible for granting him
rights of cltlzehshiti. As the wisdom
of this course It may he seriously ques?
tioned, ahd yet. what could he more
natural than this course of ..induct?
Mis allegiance to and willingness to
Buffer tio- Republican parti' Is a
matter of history. So sure was this
p.uty of th.- united vote of the recent?
ly enfranchised frcedmnn that It was
accepted as a rhatter of course, and ho
elf.ut was made to secure or retain
this vote that for a number of years
held the balance of power In the
Hotithlali'd.
Personally, we believe that hnd the
negro aill.,1 himself with the best
Interests of those about whom he was
s :r:r.i;: ded, It would have been far
Better for his ivelfaro. and much of
Bi rlmony and bitterness would hnve
been avoided, The negro did not vote
f".- high tarlfT or low tariff, or free
trade, hi States ri^htv Or the free!
eolnagfi of silver. nr tariff for revb
n ie roe- feil' any of these great is?
sues that differentiated the ?r-at po?
litical parties of this country, but he
simply voted for the Republican1
party without any question of prin-1
9iP'?. is It .surprising that such a
.-..-;??.- ,,f conduct resulted in the,
practical taking away of that which
been bctowed upon him, and that.
he became k political nonentity In the!
upheaval of the affairs of the Staf,e
and the readjustment of conditions/]
N. w ideas have taken the place of j
old questions, and while. In our own
I < collection, for a n-cro to be called
a Conseryatlvq or Democrat Was the
sum of all iniquity, these things have
long since pnssi ; away, and now men
a:., voting according to their princi?
ples and really playing politics, that
is to say, th.-y are voting for those
men and for that party which prom
s th.- hiebest good to the race or
individual. The German vote. the
Irish vote, tli- Jewish vote, have al?
ways been sought by every political
party, because they vote to conserve
thriir own interests, and thus use poli?
tics instead of having politics use
th.- in.
Itoonevelt's Position,
In the present crisis Mr. Roosevelt
has declare*] in no unmistakable terms
that hr i.s rjbt set king th.- negro vote
of the South, lie is se.-ki.ug the ne?
gro vote o' the North, wn,-re It can
h-lp him In Ms presidential aspira?
tions. The negro of the South, with
his magnificent record of fnlthfulness
must now be relegated, while the
Northern negro, with a new political
power, in his estimation, is now in
the ascendency. the nearly ten
niiilion negroes m this country, near
1} nine million "f them must live,
move and have their being In the
Southland, While tilings her,, arc far
from Ideal, there can be no question
that when It comes to real genuine
friendship, the opportunity to labor
and to hove n chance for the material
things of lif. und an opportunity for
development, no place offers larger
opportunity to the blackmnn than his
home in the South.
Mr. Taft lias shown his attitude so
unmistakably that "be who runs may
r. ad." and while Mr. Wilson has.made
no overtures to the negro vote of the
South, of one thing we arc absolutely
assured, that bis success In attaining
this high ofllc,. bodes no 111 to the
blaekman. We feel to Identify our?
selves squarely and openly with the
section "f tho country In which \ye
live and the people with whom we
labor.

To that end we are launching the
National Negro Wbodrow Wilson
I ?eaguc to do all in our power to
aid in the eb-ction of tho gentleman
of our choice, the nominees of the
national Democratic parly w.- desire
t.. l e in accord with the great South?
ern people with whom we are Identi?
fied, believing that their interest Is
oiii interest. We are calling upon our
brethren in the North to assist us
In tliis Southland to make our vote
effective where it can do most good.
We do not believe that our brethren
In the North will stand supinely by
ami allow nine mlllllon of their
brethren to be ruthlessly thrust aside.
Ignored and mistreated by the party
for whom they have done their best
for nil these years, snd though n
doubtful benefit may accrue to a few
of our brethren of the North by elec?
tion of Mi. Tall or Mr- Roosevelt* we
believe the result will but poorly com?
pensate for th.- mistreatment of the
gnat bulk of our rare We believe
both parties, tho Progressive and the
Repuhltcnn. need a rebuke at this
stage of our government to teach them
that fairness and Justice, without
whl.-b no party enn petmanently hope
to succeed.
And so we sre calling upon the ne?

Much Valuable Information on this

Th, insane are Innocent sick people,
whom, to place In jail Is a shame, The
drunkards are diseased people, who
should havt medical treatment.
"The majority of the occasional of?
fenders, and some of the confirmed
criminals, can bo reformed, In the
light ol Ho- fact that our prison pop?
ulation is Increasing, the matter of

cxcedliigly important. In order to se
