1AlAcO 10 1uSWSI. IL was pal01ully
visible that the gentleman was en-
barrassed and did not know what to
do. He paused every time he was
questioned, but no answer would he
give. After the speaking the crowd
gathered and most all present could
not understand how the head of the
''People's Ticket" did not know or
would not say how he would vote
for governor. An old Democrat
drew the attention of the crowd by
saying that he could not see
how Judge Debaillon could come
here to advise them how to vote
when the judge himself did not
know how he was voting for COVER
nor.
Mr.. Editor, how, in the name Of
common sense, can it be expected
that the people of this ward, who
are Democratic to the core, will
vote for the s.People's Ticket" when
the head of that ticket will not say
in public that he will support Muir
ply J. Foster, the Democratic
for governor
Now, Mr.. ssGoogoo," you, who
may have been allowed to enter into
the secret and sacred circle of the
''comite anti-administratif'' which
was organized at Falk's hall last
September, please be so kind as to
inform the voters who will the So
called ''People's Ticket" support for
governor.
At the mass meeting held here
Sunday, Feb. 26, the candidates on
he Democratic ticket told their
learers that their duty was to sup
bort the State Democratic ticket.

rankly comes out in favor of the

The New York Mail and EXPIRES
gets very red in the face over
Southern outrage that recently oc
cured In Hartford, Conn. 1t seem
that Prof. Frissell, of the Hampto,
Institute, was on lecture tour j,
New England and had with him fiv,
negro youths, graduates of the insti
tute. All the hotel proprietors il
the city refused to admit the ne
groes, and they had to be cared TO,
by private citizens, probably Of
their own race. Commenting on
this truly damnable outrage the
Mail and Express says:
The treatment received at Hart.
ford yesterday by a party of FIVE
colored graduates of the Hampton
Normal and Agricultural Institute,
who accompanied Principal Frissell
on lecture trip, is a reproach and a
disgrace to a New England COM
mon-wealth which is accustomed to
comment with commendable sever
lty upon the oppression of the ne
gro in many of the Southern States.
Hartford's broad mindedness is an
parently confined to theory, for in
practice every hotel and boarding
house closed it's doors to these
young colored people, leaving them
without refuge until several indig-
nant citizens opened their homes
and sought by private hospitality to
remove the sting of public insult.
Let Hartford henceforth be silent
on the negro problem in the South,
and let Connecticut be equally silent
until it repudiates the outrage per-
Petrated by its capital city.
The hotel proprietors, are not to
blame, however. They said that
with them it was purely a matter of
business. Their guests would not
allow it. So strong was the public
prejudice against the negro that it
would destroy the patronage of any
1otel to receive negroes as guests.
The Mail and Express therefore is
light in laying the blame, if blame
here be, on the general public
ather than ON the hotels. But
What is the use in kicking up a fuss
'ver such matters? Race preiu-
lice is strong in every part of the
country, and it is a part of the
7hite mans nature to tolerate MOTH
ng like equality with an inferior
ace. You can't reason with this
rejudice nor howl it down with
buse. The only really significant
act about the matter is that this
hing was done in a section and
mong people who would have
with rage if it had occurred
outh of Mason and Dixon's line.

INJUNCTION FAvoRs THE BOYD.
"Dnrlscst Russin" Has nm Engagement
Before Judge kcysor.

"Dnrkcpt Nusstn" Has nm EuHnHcmcut
Before Judge kcysor.
For the past week theater goers have
noticed that travelling company was billed
to present the drama, I'm Darkest Russia, ="
at both the local playhouscs during the first
four nights OF the coming week, commenc-
ing this evening. AS 1t was manifestly
impossible for the company to appear at
both houses at the same time. the manager
OF the Boyd theater went Into court Fri
day afternoon and applied to Judge Keysor
for an injunction, restraining the company
from playing at the Creighton
It was argued that a contract for the dates
named in the advertisements had been made
with the manager OF the Boyd before the
house changed hands. and that communica-
lions received since the change OF manage
ment showed that the contract was consid-
cred good by the manager or the company,
tst that subsequently a contract had been
made with the Creighton management cover
ing the same dates, and the company had
been advertised to appear at that house. The
court was asked to make an order prohibit
ing the company from appearing at the
Creighton.
The defendants In the action alleged that
the contract with the Boyd manager had
been cancelled Immediately after the house
changed hands. and that the company was
free to make a contract with the Creighton
or any other theater.
Judge Keysor took the case under ad-
visement and rendered his decision yesterday
morning. In passing upon the case the
court said that n contract for a performance
on Sunday was not a legal contract and
could not be considered. He held, however.
that contract had been made with the
Body theater for Monday. Tuesday and
Wednesday Of next week and that the con-
tract had not been cancelled. He therefore
granted the application for ar injunction so
far as these nights were concerned, and an
order was issued restraining the company
from playing at the Creighton Monday
Tuesday and Wednesday nights. This
leaves the company free as far as Sunday
