Does the Delawaredn know how to be
anything but disingenuous where politi'
cal issue is at stake? And can't it have the
manliness to meet an argument with an
argument rather than seek shelter behind
what is intended as an offensive epithet2
In our last issue we simply noted the fact
that the DeLd,0aTean asserted that the Daily
Nctcs was in favor of mixed schools and
that the latter denied it. We also stated
that the negroes only wanted schools of
their own and that the legislation granted
TO this end had been niggardly. We further
argued that as the negro IS q voter and his
vote counts as much as the most educated
and refined that he and all men who vote
should have the opportunities for casting
an intelligent ballot or our institutions are
not on safe basis. We looked at the
question from the higher standpoint Of the
rights, duties and best interests of our
Democratic or Republican citizenship, and
the DeLawarean charges us with being "radi-
cal and in favor of negro equality" When
our cotemporary cannot do anything but
call names it would be more respectful tc
itself and courteous to its guild to say
nothing. Any boy can say "you'ro an
other" when he's nothing else TO say. We
challenge the DeIaWarean to publish what
we said on the question Of education and
refute it from the standpoint Of the rights
and duties of American citizenship. Blu
it must do itself the credit to be courteous
give reasons and not call names, or W,
shall deem it begging the question.
