QUESTION OF RACE

A QUESTION OF RACE PREJUDICE.
New York Times.

A. Hendricks complains bitterly of the pub
LEGATION of an interview with him. The
editor OF the paper in which the interview
is printed is Lee Linn. Naturally, Lee Linn
is an enemy of any Democratic candidate.
All Democrats have a partisan objection to
Lee Linn and his race. And, as if to carry
the matter beyond all reasonable bounds,
the name of the reporter to whose faithful
work Mr.. Hendricks demurred is Jap Tur-
pen. Are the Japanese, then, to be logged
into the next presidential campaign? In tho
name of the universal brotherhood of man,
we protest against this war of races. Let
Lee Linn be permitted to pursue his humble
calling unmolested; and the Jap who re-
ported Mr.. Hendricks voluminous mono
logue should not be c~onfounded with any
Monaghan in order to arouse and kindle the
race prejudices of Democratic voters.
