SATURDAY, MAY %, 1891.

Color prejudice has prevented the
United States from securing the Mole St.
Nicholas in Hayti for coaling station.
While the negotiations were pending
and in a fair way of being arranged salts
factorily, one Huse, lieutenant acting
as aide to admiral Gherardi, conducted
himself with so much ill hammered
American impudence as to defeat all
that had been done. In addition to the
insulting conduct of Huse, letters we're
sent to the new York press describing
the Haytians IS barbarians. The cor
respondent guilty of this shameful piece
of i'll manners is an officer of the United
States vessel Philadelphia. China re-
jected Senator Blair on account of his
opposition to Cinnamon, and the indul-
gence of color prejudice is proving to be
damaging in its effects upon our foreign
relations and very costly luxury.

Great force has been laid upon the
statement that the United States cannot
guarantee to foreigners any more pro-
lection than to her own citizens. We
cannot see any force in the argument.
Our government has claimed most en-
phatically and exercised to the fullest
extent the power of coercing state. 1t
has gone to the extreme of abrogating
state governments and installing military
governments, and even now there are
thousands of citizens who can hold no
military position under the government
simply because they followed their states
when they went into rebellion. When
foreigner becomes citizen ofthe United
States, he is guaranteed protection as
such, When he sojourns in our country
he is protected by the terms of a treaty
with his government. There is no way
to evade the responsibility.

hours of productive labor, besides, for

Colored men. The white .'loaves and
