ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS
From the general survey of 'the political field it seems that
the six commissioners in office will likely be candidates for re-elec
tion. Some of them have made a splendid showing and have ful
filled the promises made to the voting public during the last cam
paign. We hold in abeyance our choice of candidates until a more
authentic survey can be made. The tremendous tasks that befall
a commissioner are of such that great care must be taken in the
selection of a man capable of engineering the executive posts as
signed to them. The safety and welfare of the public calls for sane
% and deliberate execution of laws, and such cannot be the case when
wrong heads are the governing forces.' In view of these accepted
facts, it is carefulness per se to lend support to men and measures
that work for the welfare of the people. The candidate who will
not make good his campaign promises after election is one of base
ness and unwarranting the respect or support of his following.
Such has been the case for many, years. Realizing the Negro fre
quently commands a casting vote, many designing politicians have
capitalized their false promises to secure these votes. The Negro
voter desirous of securing the representation of citizenship has, in
good faith, accepted these false promises as truths, only to find
himself a deserted part of the community when favorable action
should have been taken. A aepetition of this sort of consequence
we are seeking to avoid aftep the final election this spring. Such
men as we have given unqualified support to, and found them want
ing when the crisis was ne§tr, will not find the Negro voter his
dependable ally when they seek re-election.
In the Eighth ward, where many of our group own beautiful
property, many instances have been shown where adequate im
provements have not been made consistent with the taxes paid.
The paving between the street car tracks has been neglected while
the franchise of the company Specifically states that such paving
shall be put in by the Street Railway Company that is consistent
with necessity. We feel that such commissioners who are responsi
ble for these necessary improvements should have busied them-,
selves to the securing of this paving. In as much as we, have en
trusted our civic development into the care of a representative
body, we naturally expect that body to function in a capacity that
will be characteristic of the belief the public has injtheir ability
to foresee necessity and their integrity to deal without favoritism.
The Bulletin-Appeal is mot a political journal, nor has it ever
permitted itself to become so envolved with any party or faction
so as to lose our individual identity. Since we serve a public pur
pose it is highly necessary and expedient that we enter such pub
lic affairs that have for their purpose the securing of unqualified
recognition at all times and unmitigated justice on all occasions.
A such stand all public-spirited newspapers must take if they ex-,
pect to retain the confidence of the people they serve.
We believe that more of -our capable citizens are entitled to
consideration when the appointive positions in our municipal gov
ernment a*e being passed on. ‘iWconsideration has not been giv
en in the past, but the acceptance of the “crumbs from the Lord’s
table” are forgotten issues with us and we seek to secure our right
ful position of citizenship with intelligence of action and copcerted
ness of the use of man’s greatest asset—the free and unrestrained
use of the ballot
New history will be written when the profiteering politician
learns he is dealing with men and not forms that bend to the touch
of a deliberate lie laquered with -promises. Let every loyal Negro
register and vote for men and measures. It is only in this way we
can receive our full quota of recognition.
Border M. E. Church News
By Rev. Robert Cheers.
On January 30, Madame Mary
Mosley, teacher of the Clover Blos
som Dramatic Literary Club of our
City, gave a Musical Recital at Bor
der M. E. church.
She had had a company of little
folks in training for a few weeks and
their renditions showed not only the
efficiency of their teacher, but also
great stage talent potential.
We believe that If theee little folk*
continue under her tutelage, -the time
will not be far distant when Minne
apolis will have a company who can
produce a play not only on par with
any on the American stage, but will
he peers with the plays of the world.
Wit would show great prophetic la
eight and reflect credit to our com
munity as a whole it the people of
Minneapolis would co-operate hearti
ly with Mias Mosley in her efforts to
lead the Negro Race to the “front
line" in constructive amusements.
We predict for her a great future
and fed personally responsible 'to
help her realise it >
