Are We Now to Have Afro-American Appointments in the North and None in the South? If So, Ultimate Result Will Be No Appointments at All-Franchise Discussed by American Negro Academy-National Sociological Society at White House-Should Race Leave the South?
THE OWNER OF THE NET
SAN FRANCISCO - president of the ACL
WASHINGTON, March 10 — Washington has just passed through the quadrangle threes and graves of a Presidential Insignation. The city put on its finest dress for the occasion. Pennsylvania avenue from the White House to the Capitol was simply magnificent. Such a sight was greeted Mr. Roosevelt, no European capital has ever surpassed, in splendor and enthusiasm. Thousands and tens of thousands of people had poured into Washington from all parts of the country, and from its possessions beyond the seas. Here met Filipinos, Porto Ricans, Indians and Afro Americans. They swarmed in mylads on the streets, blending their richer tropical complexions with the paler hues of the city. It was a tita mural of the colors of mista differing along the line of the procession, pictured in the highest degree.
But the impressible, the spontaneous enthusiasm of this mixed multitude at the sight of that one man as he rode by in his open cartriage, bowing now to the right, now to the left, was something more than pictureque. it was a spectacle to stir the heart of mankind, a spectacle which touched the heart of all, what love, what admiration, diffe these expressions of that mixed multitude experience, what faith in the honor the strength, the wisdom and devotion of the man who was elected to rule over them for another four years! Ah, me, and he, the object of all this love, admiration and trust, rode down this line of earthly glory at the summit of earthly power. Strong he looked, the emblem of physical strength, fearless, alert self confident, the inerminal of conquered power, the unstoppable determination. He was in identity, might me behold, be heard of a powerful people. He seemed indeed President of the people, for the people and by the people.
And as I saw this strong new push on his way to trot Capitol to the White House fledged grace with his big office. I prayed that the people might be able to see him. He had been in other Presidents' gates for years, and that all their idiosyncrasies appeared here, space to him will be fully realized during the coming four years. I laid prayer upon all the people in government, and I put it upon the people in politics, and I put it upon the people in politics for that I know that their need is greater than that of any other portion of the American people.
What is the position of the President in respect to the Southern question? He stands undoubtedly, as he always stands, for a squirrel to all right regardless of race or color. He always stated, he would not shut the door of opportunity on any man down, he would oppose down, is a noble position in the solution of this race question, demand something more than noble words, it demands noble not as well.
According to the reports of some who have seen him since his election just now here, he has not left it in doubt as to his stand in the matter of enforcing the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. He does not permit efforts to the enactment at present, efforts to the enactment appropriate legislation to enforce these Amendments. He is afraid that such efforts may hurt the Afr. American and perhaps he is also afraid that they would hurt the South. This much, I think, may be safely predicted. There will be no change in the United States Government looking to the enforcement of the Fourteenth or the Fifteenth Amendments during the next two years, and possibly during the next four years. And during the next two years no negotiation of the subject in Congress or in the country at large will receive the approval of the subject, for he is about to launch an experiment of the own looking to the practicisation of the South along race lines.
A part of this policy or experiment will be the appointment to offices in the South of a decreasing number of Afro-Americans, and the appointment to important positions in the North of a few representatives of the race of approved fitness. The Anderson of New York to be Internal Revenue Director at New York is the first act of the President in pursuance of the second part of his new departure or experiment. This certainly is a good beginning, bravely made, for which too much praise cannot be accorded Mr. Roosevelt. It is so in the case of progress in things political by the North of America that the President will not soon grow weary, as the many more such appointments are to follow.
But let us not be deceived by the mere glamour of those favors granted in the North. Valuable as they are to them are not enough, they would, in fact, be far from enough if for defense to Southern prejudice the President were to appoint in the South fewer Afro Americans to important federal positions in the states; for in that case will have won and the blacks will have lost the right equality of rights and opportunity. When such a battle in the South, color prejudice would not long fall to win in battle also in the North. The Afro American cannot have the right to hold Federal office to the South and long retain the right to hold it in the North, backed though he may be by the surly, good will of the people of the United States. If, in defense of the private public sentiment the South the private public fewer Afro Americans to office in that session, the time would come when no Afro Americans would be applauded by
The New York Age.
some future Republican executive; and when that time arrives more will be appointed in the North. For if public enrollment be strong enough to prevent appointments of colored men to Federal positions, the state will be able enough to do so at the North. This, then, is the situation which as Afro-Americans we face to-day. Let us indeed rejoice at that change of policy on the part of the Admiral-tion, which would put more Afro-Americans in office at the North, and more Afro-Americans in office at the South, down on its part in respect to the Southern end of the business. There must not be during the next four years fewer Afro-Americans appointed to office in the South. More colored men in the North by all means will not be appointed, certainly not less than before they have been appointed by Mr. Roosevelt.
During Inaugural week, on March 2 and 3, the American Negro Academy held its 8th annual meeting. This was one of its most interesting sessions. The general subject, "The Negro and the Elective Franchise," was treated under five subheads in five carefully prepared papers as follows: "The Negro Population as Reduced in Northern Representation," Mr. A. H. Grimke; "Migration and Distribution of the Negro Population as affecting 'Negro Suffrage Condition,'" Mr. Kelly Miller; "The Potentiality of the Negro Vote in the North and West," Mr. John L. Love; "The Negro Vote in the States of the Revived Constitutions," Mr. C. C. Cook; and "Negro Suffrage in the States whose Constitutions Have Not Yet Been Revised." The Revived Negro Hope. These five addresses are to be published later by the Academy among its occasional papers.
The National Sociological Society held in this city on March 6 and 7 a special conference on the "race problem in the United States." "The chief aim of the conference," as described in the invitation, was "to endeavor to work out some harmonious relation between white colored Americans; to reduce race friction to the minimum; to find some common ground upon which all of the friends of the cause may stand; and to determine an equitable basis for the settlement of the race question. Notwithstanding the nature and the circumstances of the couple the whole of its first step with a spirited discussion of the subject, Should Southern Representation be Reduced?" and the whole of the second, play with a no less spirited discussion of that other subject, "Ought the Solution of the Negro Question to Be Left to the South?" On the occasion waited on the President and presented him a brief and timely memorial touching the race question. "We have come," so concludes the memorial, "to request you to recommend in your next message to Congress the appointment of a commission to secure the facts so that the government shall legislate as will enforce the provisions of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution." It is reported that when the end of the memorial was reached, the delegation experienced a subduing cill in the air processing suddenly, and that the gentlemen retreated notice, and perhaps when in such matters for the future.
One of the features of Imaguration week was the powerful discourse of the pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church on "American Citizenship in General and Negro Citizenship in Particular." Another feature was the thoughtful address of Rev. Dr. Dean Richmond and Rev. N. Y. Nixon in the Nineteenth Street Presbyterian Church, which enacted the voluntary cessus of the Afro-Americans of the South to Northern, Middle and Western States, to the grid that the race problem may cause unduly to be a Southern one.

SOUTH CONFOUNDED
They See Merit Rewarded Despite Race and Section—Why Do Southern White Men, after Endorsing Black, Office-Seekers, How against Their Appointment?—We Have "Made Good" Whenever Given a Man's Chance.
Regular Correspondence of the Age.
ATLANTA, Ga., March 10.—Nothing in a long time has gone so far in disarray Southern Democratic criticism of Republican politics as the recent well-mettled appointment of Charles W. Anderson to be Collector of Internal Revenue at New York. Herefore the claim has been made, with much show of emphasis, south of the Mason and Dixon line, that Afro-Americans have been appointed to places in the South solely as an insult to the white man, and the appointment would not for a moment consider the application of a colored man for office in a Northern community. Now all that talk must cease. The burden of proof has been shifted to the shoulders of the complainants and they are almost dumbbounded when they contemplate this sweeping demo. This appointment has done more to confirm the criticism. It has served to show to them and to the world the utter fallacy of their argument. Incidentally, it has caused the black man to breath a stronger breath of hope. He does not understand it to be the opening wedge where, as a mass he will enter upon an era of great recognition of the merits of one of his number and he stops long enough to express his thanks for the act.
Paradoxical as may seem the assertion it is nevertheless true that the Southern people themselves have been the most patient factors in securing the appointment of Afro-Americans to Federal office. There is not one black man in a hundred who has been given political preferment without the written endorsement of many of the most influential white citizens of the community in which he rejoiced. The fact that he is always appointed is always good for his probity and general good standing and this coupled with ability to fill the place, he served him in greatest measure in securing the recommendation desired. Taking for granted that these sonnets of ability and good character are given in good faith, these is no sort of adequate reason why objection should be raised when the applining power is relying no doubt on them. The fact that he is a feeling of the need to relate, the objection is always certain to follow the appointment and sometimes comes most strongly from one of the endorsers. It cannot be charged that fatal agent, influential and prominent are ignorant of what they are doing when they recommend persons for office, nor can it be claimed that they do it without thought. The uninhibited feet that they recognize the fitness of applicant for the place, and that in their inner confidence they should be given to them. They endorse him for the office they are unquestionably sherere in their action. What shall be said when they object to his appointment?
The ideas of giving the Afro American a chance with ever body also is just now one of the most discussed questions of the day, thanks to the courage and director of the magnificent man in the movie *The Magnificent Man*. We shall have accomplished much in our advancement when we have recognized the fact that "the door of opportunity" is not to be shut against us. The spirit of oppression directed against any class of the citizens of the Republic is incompatible with that atmosphere of fecdom that characterize all Republics, and ultimately work harm to the whole body politic.
The Afro-American has been given a chance in the agricultural section of the South and has effectively allied all to label of humiliation of white labor to his section by producing two million bales of cotton more than there is a paying demand for. In many parts of our common country he has been given the chance to work wherever this is true the tax duties brief with the records of his thrift and in industry. In the avenues of learning in many States he is given an equal showing, said he never fails to "make good." In the field of art, with his merger advantages, he has demonstrated a praiseworthy capacity which enlarges with enlarging opportunity. With a man's chance in any other sphere, he has measured up to re-enlisted and identified with every interest of the Nation. Here must be his home for all time. He has given of his small means, his labor and his blood for his advenance: In return, he takes only a man's chance. THOMAS H. MALONE

Senior Degree Abuse.
Senior degrees are conferred upon people for high distinction in scholarship, public service, exploration, philanthropy, and the like, by university, college and other schools of learning, operating under education giving them the right to do so.
When given by a proper institution, degrees are to be examined and give direction to those who have earned them.
A great many people possess degrees to which they have no early right, degrees conferred by institutions which are in no sense qualified to give them, under their charter, or, having the requisite charter, because of their unobscillity character.
There are many schools of this character in the United States, and there has been much outcry against the scandal of their rookie conferring of degrees upon incompetent.
Among Afro-Americans the degree business has become so general that it is difficult to find a man of us in any of the walks of life who is not a doctor, professor and the like. We know a great many such degree holders who cannot read their diploma or understand it. When read to them, but it was only recently that we came upon a degree-giver who could not write a diploma correctly, although there must be many such.
The following diploma was sent to us recently with the request that we give publicity to it, and we have pleasure in serving the institution and Icv. Accomo a good turn by dojo as:

Latta, who does not appear to have any degree himself, does not seem to know how to write the Klug's English, or to punctuate correctly what he writes, or to put capital letters in the places where they belong; so much we gather from the diploma he has written and signed conferring 'the degree of Doctor Divisalis on Rev.

The Dandiscal Body
There is a general conviction that the unkindest wrong which one can do another is to destroy his ideals. These, being the patterns by which human lives are fashioned, are indeed worthy of reverence. We expect, consequently, to be exposed somewhat for publishing to a letter which assists the fundamental principles, she very life work itself, of innumerable young men. Yet our purpose is not wicked. A dexterous general often allows his opponent an advantage, only to crush him the more completely. So, we print our correspondent's association that "success is not won by the mere requirement of good clothes," merely to afford ourselves an occasion for rendering unto the Dandy, that much abused creature, those honour which are his.
"First," to quote Carlyle, "let us consider, with some scientific strictness, what a Dandy specially is." A Dandy is a clothes-wearing man, a man whose trade, office and existence consists in the wearing of clothes. Every faculty of his soul, spirit, purse and person is heroically concentrated to this one object, the wearing of clothes wisely and well: so that as others dress to live, he lives to dress. In short, the Dandy, if scrutinized with the seeing eye, exhibits, in his humble sphere, many of those qualities which, in other stations, are praised as noble, heroic or sublime.
Dandylam, if philosophically considered, is a species of imperfect or false religion. Cloth is the Dandy's god; his Mahomet or Pope is the师. Many or thodox doctors incline to the opinion that infidels themselves, if they practice faithfully the injunctions of their benighted theologies, need not despair of salvation. If this opinion is correct, what eternal blisses are laid up for the Dandy! for no sect can compare with him in faith, according to his lights. Does the tailor issue a bull ordering that trousers shall tight across the hips and flare at the bottom? The Dandy does not pause to reason why. No doubling Thomas is he. With submissive, cheerful alacrity he procures himself, at whatever paines and expense, tractors of the cut enjoined. Does a sartorial receipt command that trousers shall be "pig topped"? With instant, trustful obedience, the Dandy has himself re measured. With what sublime self-absorption does he, when directed, discard his whole wardrobe of servicable, but antiquated garments! And if, perhence, his purse is unequal to the demands of fashion, how is his heart "wrung against unutterable throes" comparable only to those of some unlucky Catholic who has to die unsaved. In indeed, in these turbulent times, the Dandy
is almost the sole role of the simple, childlike age of the past, when few men aspired to think for themselves but were happy to lean upon the opinions of those in authority. To day there are as many religious and political systems as there are individuals. Only the Dandy has no schisms. To him he has not yet occurred this declaration of independence, as portentous as Luther's Theses. Man in dowered by his Creator with certain invaluable rights, among which is that of drusing as his own comfort, taste and conscience shall advise. The sacrifices which people are willing
to make for their convictions, may the theologian, indicate pretty truthfully the value of those convictions. If this is so; the Dandy's principles must be rated very high. Some men are willing to give up health, wealth, pleasure, youth. He itself, if they can but augment to the full those intellectual talents which Providence has vouchafeed them. The Dandy, without a murmur, lays the intellect itself upon the ail of Cloth. The exhilarating consciousness of mental growth, the never-chewing banquets afforded by good books, the polygant delights of poetry, the vast meditations of philosophy—all these the Dandy gladly offers up to his ideal. For Cloth is a jealous god, permitting no other gods before it. Is there not something heroic in the Dandy's single-minded devotion to his motto: "Give me clothes or give me death?"
It is a melancholy irony of fate that the Dandy is so often unappreciated, so often passed by with indifference or even contempt. We have even heard mothers of educated and ambitious daughters upbraid the degeneracy of these times, which afford only Dandies and Fope for husbands. It is perhaps true that artists, such as poets and painters, make rather uncongenial husbands, and the Dandy, the arch-idealist of them all, is probably no exception to the rule. But we assure all marriage young ladies who are vorging towards despair over the dearth of acceptable sultors, that the Dandy, if looked at with scientific attention, will afford personal interest and wonder. With these, could married life be dull?
Dr. Morris Considered.
We publish in another column a letter from Dr. Charles S. Morris, because it is a fair sample of the man's lack of perspicacity and of his long passions. The Aux has never said or inquired that he ever had a thought of blowing up either Dr. Washington on the President. But leaving this out, we think Dr. Morris's speech was still incendiary, not on account of its matter, but on account of its flagent inappropriateness and untimeliness. In this view of the matter the executive committee of the Hayes' reception, and Mr. Hayes himself, as was shown by their letter to Dr. Washington, seemed to concur. Dr. Morris assumes that The Aux is bound to give public vent to any hot air he may generate. But we still reserve to ourselves the right to choose what we shall print and what we shall reject. We printed nothing of Dr. Morris' address because it was, in our opinion, full of false statements and conclusions, and we are not propagating error.
We do not understand that Dr. Washington has gone into politics. In so far as he has given advice to the President when requested to do so, we are in a position to know that it has been safer, and safer and more advantageous to the race than any that Dr. Morris ever gave, or bie betterers who have gone before him. We are as much disposed, to criticize Dr. Washington's short comings as those of anyone else, as Dr. Morris could have seen had he followed our editorial column, but captions criticism of Dr. Washington or of any other public man we regard as morally bad and contrary to good public policy. We are, therefore, little disposed to give currency to any of Dr. Morris' opinions on the right or wrong of Dr. Washington's course in education or politics, as we are convinced that in both fields of activity he has more sense and self-possession than Dr. Morris. We are not informed that Dr. Washington "counts on our press." He certainly does not control The Aot. In a way, The Aot rather controls him.
The Iowa State Bystander, in attempting to rescue the AVE's opposition to offering Southern representation, exhibits such gravely ignorantism as has never before, we believe, been颁发的. "We are much surprised," says the Bystander, "at the stand T. Thomas Fortune is taking in opposing reduction. He says that something ought to be done, yet he does not." He says "the Amendment." We fear that any grammar school boy guilty of concluding in this manner two articles of the Constitution of the United States would hardly escape a sound censure.
The school boy in the District of Columbia, at Washington, who wrote upon a blackboard that "President Roosevelt debased himself by taking lunch with a nigger" was properly expelled by the teacher. The manhigher up who ordered his reinstitution should be removed. The boy learned his bad manners in his home, like the man higher up, and each of them should be made an example of. Some day Afro-Americans will get sick of this sort of high and low plays and make a horrible riddle. Why should Afro-Americans stand for such insults any more that any other race elements of the National citizenship? Why?
While affirming the constitutionality of the Ponage law the Federal Supreme Court has reversed the decision of the Circuit Court for the Fifth Circuit in favor of Clytton, who was charged with "pretending" to involuntary servitude two Afro-Americans, Gordon and Ridley. It was not shown that the men had been in a condition of paucity prior to their removal from Florida to Georgia. The case will be retrial and it is highly probable that Clytton will be convicted and punished for his crime. In any event, it is a very great gain to justice and fair play to have the Federal Supreme Court protect Afro-Americans in their rights under the Constitution.
"The New York Times, which got so hot in the collar because we described Thomas Dixon's "The Clamman" as an infamous book, now accuses Dixon of having plagiarized therain, as a thin disguise of paraphrase, certain chapters of one Dr. John J. Crawson's "The Prison Life of Jefferson Davis." Even we had not suspected that Dixon, in addition to his other crimes, was guilty of theft.
An Overlap professor has reached the conclusion that it is possible for man to live one hundred and fifty years. Perhaps. But what man desires to live that long? When a man's physical and mental powers decay, living is no longer a pleasure. A religious rhymer has said: "It is not all of life to live. For all of death to live. When you die, you are in the mouth, death is not the worst thing that can overtake an old man.
THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 1905.
HEROES' OF PEACE--A GROWING HONOR ROLL
By Jerome H. Peterson.
So sirring were the examples of courage presented and so significant the deduction that the race was a contested one, occasionally attention was directed to other instances revealing more heroes in black skins, as they appeared in the cur rent news column of *The Times*, assumed the role of an independent investigator of the race's right to the ballot and citizenship. Most of the clipping descriptions these current incidents were preserved in the roll of honor of heroes in black skins.
The first insistence was noted in the New York Independent, in describing the mike explosion at Hanna, Wyoming, in the summer of 1933, which went to instant death 238 miners, including the mine boss, miners and considerable opposition had been made to their presence, being said that they "were an undesirable class, many of them brutal, and some criminal." But the Independent added: "One at least these who served a Christian and a hero. He was W. W. W. W. the death blast came he might easily have saved himself, but he went back a dozen times into the fire and suffocated gases to drag out men who were incantable, until finally he too fell and was rescued. The next thy he took his place again in the front ranks of the escavating party."
The City Council of Columbus, Ga., gave official recognition to the unassailable herald of Bragg Smith, at its last meeting in 1903, by adopting a resolution to grant him the title of captain of the grave. Smith was a laborer who pretended while striving to save the life of the while superintendent of public works, who was buried by a cavein. The monument was duly erected of Georgia and Vermont scriptures "Erected by the City of Columbus" the last resting place of Bragg Smith, who died on September 30, 1903, in the heroclio but frailless effort to rescue the city engulfed from caving excavation on Mount Vernon, or also gave his life in vain, in an effort to save the crew of a snorkeling steamer off Cape Romance, N. C., in May, 1903. With the mate of the bark Lillian of Boston, Mitchum funeral to make the effort and the two of him in a joint effort four men from the wreck, they returned to the side of their own vessel, when the boat was upset and all six were drowned. Lawson Hancock, a city employee of Milwaukee, gave an effort to save the lives of two white unattractive subscriptibles were freely given for a monument as a merited recognition of his worthy deed. The Milwaukee Abusecant said, about Milwaukee there were numerous heroes, but few of the heroes of peace Hancock was one of that kind.
(1) the Bayon Vermilion, JA, little Ethel Tahler fell into the water and was held by Alex Cole, a large band, for time when two of a barges and plumped in whirlstopping to remove even hat or shoes. He gnawed the drowning girl and swam with her to the safety of her safety went about his work extinction further into. The citizens of Abbieville and the sheer the girl finally drowned the sheer the girl finally collected and was presented to him, he aides a handsome gold medal in the shape of a Maltouse cross from Mr. Taylor, the scribe: "For his courageous and unseld act in setting the life of his daughter, her father desires to make gracious act. May God bless you for this noble deed."
Joe Alcatel, the driver of the Victor Filer Company, at Raleigh, N. C., according to the Morning Post of that city, saved Mrs Bidie Blake from an accident which occurred April 14, 1904. Alcatel was driving furiously in answer to an alarm of fire, when Mrs Blake in her buggy found herself directly in front of the dashing stairs. With heroic exertions Alcatel turned his team of horses and forced the force that one of the horses lost his forging, lacerating his leg and shoulder. The Post concluded its account by saying: "Miss Blake fully realized the situation afterwards and last night she showed her the Victor house to personally thank Driver Alcatel and to inquire about the horse."
A news dispatch from Louvilleville, Ky., recorded the fact that the lives of General and Mrs. Simon Bolvar Buckner were killed. The bravery of Jim Clay, who shipped their bodies June, 1904. The former Leutnant General of the Confederacy, who was then 92 years old, had been driving with Mrs. Buckner when the horses became frightened to control them. Clay grabbed the bit, and team and brought them to a standstill just as they crashed into a load of cabbage. He had been dragged nearly a minute and was badly bruised. Mrs. Clay put the bait, billo in the used after her rescue.
Besides these above mentioned, there were several unknown heroes, whose names were not secured, but whose deeds papers. The big flood at Touro in June, 1903 made the occasion for one of these of whom the Topeka Journal recounted: "A colored man in a rowow boat scarcely seaworthy seemed enveloped and skilful, so many people did he reach from conditions perilous in the extreme." The General Sloumac disaster on the East River last June furnished an opportunity in big black type: "Herdsie's announcement in big Two Women." The incident was part of the story of Mrs. J. C. Helios, who was sitting near the stern of the boat when the flames broke out. She said: "I put on a coat and colored in swam alongside and helped to a turbulent." At Louisville has November Mrs. Harrison Carter jumped into the
Ohio River, although unable to swim, to rescue her four-year old child, who had fallen overboard. They were both drowning when the unknown driver of a coal wagon, and jumped in after them. Accounted for, they count, "he got, they aboard, the shiny-boat, put them on a bed, went over to the coal wagon and rode away. Both Mrs. Kern and the child recovered in a few minutes and they could not find the Negro rescuer."
The most recent example of heroism within the image of this article occurred at Rahway, N. J., last January and was the act of a young age of the chief officer, Ross Brown, who was described as "a young colored girl." When the children of Washington School place were assembling, a young bull dog tempted to bite a ten-year-old girl. She escaped loudly "Mad Dog," and the other scholar ran away, save Miss Brown, who趴ed the dog and dung him down staircase, and the stair but the dog closed and bit them, Miss Brown being severely incarcerated. In closing this recapitulation of instances of self-confidence and devotion on the part of the teacher, the boy without honor in their own country, it is well to recall the familiar line, which were graven on the monument erected to Bragg Smith at Columbus, Ga.: "Art work all your part, there all the honor lies."
MORRIS FURIOBO
A Sample of Ministerial Amenity and Calm Criticism.
I cannot enter into a mud-alighting contest with you for you have long convinced all who know you as well as I do that you possess powers of invasive and mercurious that are at least extraordinary. My inclination and my ability preclude such a contest, but if you will permit me, and surely with all the advantages to be heard you enjoy, you ought to permit me; to race the race and the danger of the race and the danger to him. Washington's recent entrance into politics. If I take untenable ground no one knows better than how you to call me to account purpose, more in harmony with the old tradition of fair play of Tink Aor than refuse to print a塑形, line of what I really did say and I am abashed to say Tink Aor. In line of my speech and the only one that willfully misrepresented me and refused to take it back), and yet accuse me of making an incessantly address that showed no sense of fact, while it is but simple justice me to treat me fairly even if you totally disent from my opinions, if. as I believe, I am right I am prepared to maintain those Tink Aor may do or say.
As I stared in my speech and reiterated in my statement to the press, I had no more thought of blowing up either Mr. Washington or blowing up the throne of God. In his place, where alone he is great, as an educator, a turner of stones into bread, a teacher of the arts, a leader of the race, Mr. Washington has resumed us a unique and splendid service, no one has been more ready to recognize that Mr. Washington said to me that I had written one of his speeches with reference to him he has read. I stand by every line of that article. It commends him just because he avoided the worst of the criticism he gave him the best reception the race ever accorded him to New York. I gave it seriously, honestly, but I regard his recent press and in perquisite political activity as short sighted and in the long run dangerous in the extreme and I so stained in my speech and will state no opportunity
"The right to canvass public men and measures is a home-bred right, a stochastic privilege," says Daniel Webster. The Governor, the Mayor, all are freely clothed. What makes Mr. Washington's actions or utterances so sacred that he may not share the respectful criticism incident in the speech, or play dojo games of free speech and fair play dojo games. Also, to go into hysteria deciding men in necromancy and crazy because in a perfectly calm and respectful way they take issue with questions that affect the welfare of the race with which both are identified? Now, I shall write no more for men waste basket, but if you dare to be fair, if you dare to be stupid, if you dare to express my opinions over my own signature. If they are wrong you can do no greater harm than to publish them; if they are right even the gentus of Tom Forrest. Citizens S. Momma.

THE BALLOT IS THE RACE'S PALLADIUM
By Owen M. Waller, M. D.
As a race we were not of the alien class meeting the founders of this great Republic, and the founders of this great blood we have helped to make it what it is. We are framers of the Constitution had not the courage to do, the heroic liberty-loving spirits, who had a thorough understanding of the Amendment to the Constitution accomplished by the Amendment to the Constitution in 1855 and brought to a masterful conclusion by the adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment in 1870, wherein our measures are measured only by our obligation and thus we are accomplished. We stand to-day, clothed with every right and privilege in our native land, upon the soil enriched by the labor, the blood and privilege in our own fathers. And not only this, the blood and privilege obligated by Constitutional enactment to force by appropriate legislation its own will. Section 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment states that when the right to vote is denied in the proportion of the citizens of State or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion or other crime, the basis of representation in which the right of citizenship of the United States shall bear to the whole number of citizens twelve years one of age. The Fifteenth Amendment goes a step further, that the right of citizenship of the United States shall have power to enforce this right, be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. This progress shall have power to enforce this right, be denied or abridged by the United States. We insist upon our rights as patriotic citizens of the United States, we ask nothing more and will accept nothing less. We realise that there is no middle ground between the public and the private or just, which seeks to cloak up the virtues before we shall exercise the preaggressives of citizenship.
Symposium's Patriotic Enterprise.
To the Editor of the New York ACE.
I am in receipt of booklet containing the views of prominent Negroes on "Should Representation in Congress Be Reduced?" as published in the recent symposium in your valued and progressive paper. The Agr. is justly entitled to all praise for its patriotic enterprise in bringing together the views of such a representative array of Negroes on a question that so vitally affects their political life. BORN: J. N. JESSON. President, Afro-American Republican League of Pennsylvania.

RACE NEWSPAPERS ON
ANDERSON APPOINTMENT
"It is an indisputed fact that in the great race for promotion the colored man intends setting a big piece of the pie. Mr. H. Trust as collector of internal revenue for the New York district. — Warrenton (N. C.) Christian Bear. — The President has appointed Chase, H. Trust as collector of Revenue of the city of New York. This goes a far way toward proving to the Southern Democrats that he does not abuse colored men to important offices in the South. — Savannah (Ga.) Tribune. — President Robertsville has named Chase, W. Anderson as Collector of Internal Revenue in New York City. In doing so the president has asserted the criticism which the appellation has asserted the importance of honor and trust in the South has always provoked. Knowing Mr. Anderson as we do, we know that his color was a man of distinction which governed the President in making the appointment. — Indianapolis World.
—The Associated Press news claims that Hon. Charles W. Anderson, a bright young politician of New York, is ahead to be appointed to the office of Republican for New York. Mr. Anderson is a standout hardworking Republican and studied law in the office of Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, who Anderson last summer at the Republican National Convention represented a representative race man and orator. We wish that he may be successful. —Iowa State Bystander.
President Roosevelt has again put to test the ability of men to work in many, in his noted stand for Dr. Crum, argued that his appointments of colored men to office were confined wholly to the similar and bipartisan he dared not make similar appointments, like unto that of Dr. Crum. We wonder will his detractors have to say now, since his appointment of Charles W. Anderson to Internal Revenue Collector for the great city of New York—Frederick (Mil.) Hornet.
"It is rumored that Charles W. Anderson, the prominent Negro New York politician, is to be appointed collector of Interstate, to be the district of New York, Mr. Anderson is to be a wife and satisfactory appointment from every point of view. Federal recognition is deserved by the race in the North. Anderson's appointment will be progressive, and will stop the mouths of those who have said the President would not dare to appoint colored men to responsible positions in the North. - Omaha (Neb.) Enterprise.
"The nomination of Chas. W. Anderson, the prominent Revenue Enforcement for the city of New York, recognizes the value and loyalty of the Negro vote in New York, and it rewards an exceptionally able and efficient leader among our people in that State. It does not mean that he is obligated consideration for his services; the claim so often levied by the South at the appointing power for its policy of giving such office to Negroes only in the South. Mr. Anderson is to be congratulated upon his service, and is obligated consideration for his services; the claim so often levied by the South at the appointing power for its policy of giving such office, and the President, for his wisdom in the selection as in the greater finding a paddock on the months of Southern fire eaters - Kidman Lacect.
—President Theodore Roosevelt has again demonstrated that he thoroughly understands the importance of a man on the grounds of merit organizing a man on the grounds of merit organizing a person of class to which the man may belong. The President's appraisal of Clarice W. Anderson of New York is of great internal revenue. should be an encouragement young man who has chosen clean politics for his field of labor. Mr. Anderson has been a publicist. He has unabashed the principle of hard times. He has labored for party success when the efforts seemed useless. He is now about to traep the harvest. Mr. Anson is a publicist. He has advanced by diet of hard labor will have about 50 persons under him. He is justly proud of the honor and he is justly proud of the people of Cleveland and Ohio are justly proud of him—Cleveland Journal.
Young Men Should. Be More Than Dandies.
To the Editor of the New York Age:
The country seems willing to do to continue its policy of admitting the Afro-American youth into the various schools but not into the factories, commercial of fice and draughting rooms. This feature of the problem is very discouraging to those of our young men who are booking upward and onward. Nevertheless, it be behouves us to do the very best we can to qualify ourselves for travel on the rough roads of life. Remember that men are made better in a reading room than in a dancing room. The young Afro-American that it is a mistake to mistake in the Afro-American that it is black. We must continue to get knowledge, not only of books but of industrial, and commercial affairs, of men and above. Success is not won by the mere acquaintance of the manners and a social reputation. We should enter upon our work with love for it. Keep the body, and mind in the best manner, loyal and patriotic, be fair in dealing with the Afro-American, serious in thought and help the man who is underneath. I believe that when the American people are convinced that the Afro-American wants to help America they then will help the American. Ww H. J. M. 1903.1.1. Newark, N. J. M. 10.1.1.
