This writer doesn't think we
should forsake our northern
friends- or "Yankees". They have
helped us in many ways and will
continue to dy so if let alone
What belongs to the race, constitutionally
speaking, is ours and
there should be no let up in the
courts until this race enjoy every
privilege guaranteed in the United
States Constitution. Better
pay for school teachers; longer
school terms; more modern school
buildings; well equipper and at
least one class "A'^ cpllege, supported
by the state,'are some of
the things w? want and will con
tend for with our own peo'ple and
4Uir?noi them friends and "Yankee".
So much for that.
