COLORED VOTERS BEGINNING
TO VOTE INTELLIGENTLY.
Rev Wm. J. Stanley writes the col-
ored voters of Oklahoma to use good
judgment in the November election.
When the contest will be between Re-
publican, Socialist and Democrat.
Mr. Editor please allow’ space in
your paper for just a few w’ords to
my colored brothers, relative to the
primary and the election of November
1916, when the contest will be be-
tween those three parties.
Dear Brother:
The primary is over which we term
as a calling machine, and in spite of
us, some of the best wheat has passed
through our sieve and instead some
chaff hai remained. Not withstand-
ing we cannot afford to abandon our
good old Republican party absolutely,
for the above cause. Why can’t we
abandon the Republican party abso-
lutely, on account of the 14th and 15th
amendments to the Constitution of
the United States.
When we think of these amond-
mens we ^realize that no rational
minded man enn afford to abandon
the party as long as the 14th and 15th
amendments live. We however, are
aware of the fact that we do not get
all of the benefits set forth in these
amendments, but the cause has grown
out of our being blind. Heretofore
we voted for the man because he
claimed to be a Republican, hence we
succeeded in electing the man who
bore the name, hut not the principal
and he proves to be as bad or worse
than a Democrat. How are we to
avoid the above mistake? First we
must consider the general transact- i
j ions of the individuals with all men ;
| * cgardless of color and if they have j
; been in an>' way fraudulent or if they
| have been nay manifestation of en-
mity in them against us as a race,
I then these good reasons why we
j should not support them regardless
| of party affiliation, for we can’t ex-
! Pect an enemy to do anything but to
; discriminate against us as a race.
And I beg to appeal to your good
j judgment that if we find that a So- j
! cialist or Democrat has the best heart!
toward us as a race, let us support
that man or those men, and try, God
io help us, to knock out that defect- j
| ed man who claims to be a Repub-
lican for office sake, and by so do-
ing we hope for bettor results—and
We expect to accomplish something if
we will just concentrate our forces
by voting for or against the same
man. Let us get together and agree
before the election and govern our-
selves accordingly.
THE SOCIALIST FAIR ELECTION
LAW.
At our primary, held in August, the
Socialists wereo ut in a body working
| against a constitutional amendment
providing for an educational test for
! voters, and soundly be-rating our leg-I
islature for devising, what they term-!
ed, the most damnable rotten, nefar-:
ous sceme to deprive the people of
their right of suffrage.
Now they come out with an amend-
ment, which under their own caption
they term as “The Socialist Fair El-
ection Law.” The entent of which is'
to place the election machinery in the
hands of the political parties, instead
of the officers duly elected by the
people.
At present the election officers are
appointed by the representativen of
| the people, chosen by the people and
for the purpose of transacting the
people's business. Under this amend-
ment they propose to place these ap-
pointments in the hands of men not;
chosen by the people, nor to look after
the people’s affairs, hut in the hands
of politicians who are chosen by their
party to tratisact the party business
and look after the interests of the
party.
Now the Socialists claim that neith
er party is represented upon our pres-
ent election board, hut that the so-
called Williams Machine, only is rep-[ could side against the other and thus
resented. Let us see. Gov. Williams j over rule the third party who might
and the State Senate were duly el- ,ea"Y be the majority party. The
ected by receiving a majority of the
votes cast at the election. They are
two minority parties could fuse and
take control and usurp the power from
the majority. Upon the party in
be exepected to put their stamp of
j approval on just such class of un-
sound legislation.
