The Republican finds fault with the plant
ers of East Feliciana because they decline to
employ Radical negroes, and wants the Leg
islature to interfere in some way to compel
these gentlemen to adopt different course.
Does the Republican think it part of the
duty of government to dictate to employers
whom they shall employ? II not in what
manner does it propose to achieve its object
1t complains that the East Feliciana planters
are proscriptive, and assumes that they
ought to be legislated into hberality. But there
is a good deal of prescription all around us
which nobody dreams of suppressing by leg
islation. 1t may be proscriptive for hotel
keeper to refuse to employ waiter who will
not wear gloves but as the hotel-keeper has
a right to select his own agents he has right
to make antipathy to gloves an insuperable
objection to an applicant for situation. 1t
may be proscriptive for planters to refuse to
employ Radical negroes but planters have
right to employ whom they please, or to en-
ploy nobody, and this greater right involves
the lesser right to make any test they choose.
The Republican will find that any attempt to
legislate this right out of existence will only
have the effect of confirming employers in the
resolution to exercise it. 1t may be bad
economy for planters to make politics test
in the selection of their laborers, but it is not
the business of the State to force people to be
good economists Moreover, there may be
reasons, and there doubtless are reasons
which prevail in the minds of the planters,
and other employers, over simple economy.
tits on these reasons that they act, and they
will continue to act on them as long as fac
ton in the State conspires to subordinate all
private and personal rights to the whims and
caprices, and yindictiyeness of a set of adyen-
turers and renegades.

The SOCIAL EQUALITY SCHEME FROM A
COMMERCIAL POINT OF VIEW.

The Tribune of this city, an organ of the
colored Republicans, processes to be solicit
tous of the commercial prosperity of the
city, and yet it vehemently agitates the wild
and impracticable scheme of compelling
every species of business to ignore all dis
tinetions of color and of social conditions.
Why is it that in any establishment where
business is carried on-in hotel, a restau-
rant q coffeehouse, or theater, for ex-
distinctions Of this nature are recog-
nized? 1t is because the proprietors know
that it is essential to their prosperity that
they should do so. They know that they
cannot afford to do otherwise. They know
that they would be ruined in short order if
they should act upon the principle which the
Tribune clamors to have universally and rig
orously enforced at all hazards. Now, if
such an enforcement of this principle would
be fatal to the prosperity Of individuals in the
lines of business indicated, it could not but
detract seriously, perhaps fatally, from the
general prosperity of the city which is
swelled in proportion to the profits of
the various pursuits in which its citi-
to be doubted that the social anarchy
resulting from the policy in question,
were the execution of that policy possible,
would sbatter the very basis of trade and
plunge the city into an abyss of commercial
disaster and decay from which it never would
emerge. If the Tribune is wisely concerned
for the interests of the colored population or
for the commercial advancement Of the city,
il will abandon this i1-timed and pernicious
agitation. Social tastes and sentiments and
habits can not be legislated out Of existence,
or annihilated with fire and sword. If they
change it will only be with the natural pro-
cess of social evolution The Tribune wants
the Legislature to enact selfevident ana
chronism; to declare that to-day is not to-day,
but some visionary point in problematical
future, and to force everybody to indorse the
lie

The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1869-01-09


The Tribune not long ago quoted the re-
marks of the CRESCENT disappearing of the
course pursued by some gentlemen in the
country in regard to the renting of land to
negroes. The Tribune is perfectly right in
surprising that the CRESCENT is opposed to
any attempt to interfere with owners of pro-
perty in their right to dispose of their pro-
perty as they please. But if we are to infer
from the article in the Tribune of yesterday
morning that this journal is presumed to
favor that other and equally culpable kind of
interference which would compel land owners
to rent their property to persons whom they
pnpy not desire as tenants, we must say that
cur position has been very much miscon-
ce,ved. We regret to see indications of a
Spirit Of this kind in the Tribune, because it
iIyplies that the race which that paper pecu-
b9rly represents is deeply imbued with false
idea of the functions and powers of govern
nsants. Any attempt of the Legislature to
fierce white people to rent their lands to
IAgroes, or to constrain the property owner in
bis disposal ofhis property will, very properly,
~ resisted as an arbitrary and tyrannical vio-
lStion of the very rights which it is the
daty of the State government to protect If
the colored people are ever to emerge from
their condition of dependence, if they are
ever to acquire the habits and privileges as
well as the rights of freemen, they must COM
mence by renouncing the pernicious fallacy
that government owes them anything
more than the same protection Of life and
property that is accorded to other citizens
They may find il unreasonable that one man
refuses to rent land to them, or that another
man declines to employ them but it is not
the duty of governments to force people to be
reasonable. Men have right to refuse to
rent their land at ALL and to decline to employ
any one, and they cannot justly be forced to
do either one or the other. Those who teach
the colored people that they have a right to
demand this sort of equality-which in fact
