color, ii the colored customer will
come IN, get accommodated and pass
out as otner customers, and no one
but the prejudiced barber himself
would ever pay any attention to it.
As an illustration, those shops that
invite colored patronage, one day
with another, week in and week out,
shave more white men than black
men, and often some of the patrons
of those shops that refuse to accom-
modate colored men line up and wait
their turn. Ii Negro barber in this
city were to depend for the half he
makes to come from Negroes, it
would be rather poor dependence.
Then, If those shops that say, "You
next!' without regard to color, and
white and black men take their turn
one and alike, and yet these men
make good hvings from white pat
ronage, does it not stand to reason
that the white men for the most part
are not as much averse to shaving
after colored men as the colored bar
Der feels that he has fallen in dig
nifty at shaving a colored man and
brother? The reason the colored
BARRIERS are here singled out is be-
cause it Is so out Of all human rea-
son to hear Negro refuse his own
color and then expect to shine
among the Negroes as one Of their
foremost men. 1t is not fair, and
Negroes, one and all, should resent
1t. Let such go to the men they
pretend to be the mouthpiece of for
their social recognition.

To our ears it has come that GER
tain Afro-American BARRIERS in the
far Northwest who make a practice
OF refusing to serve men of their
own color in their shops, were not
pleased with a former article touch
ing Oh that point which recently ap-
peared in these columns. 1t is not
the intention of this paper to be un-
fair, but, can any man, regardless of
his color or nationality, point out a
single instance where the business
men Of any other nationality, wheth-
er IN their native land or on foreign
soil, that ever refuses to accommo-
date his own nationality, save and
except the Negro? The Negro does
so, and is not satisfied in the mere
doing so, but he boasts Of it among
his white customers for no other rea-
son than to curry favor with them.
Not only is such man a ''puke," as
previously said, but every other Ne
gro in the community. should scorn
him as viper. Pimps, macqueraux,
cutthroats and murderers should not
be as Objectionable to the Negro race
in general as the Negro who will
open up business in a community,
where race prejudice is so foreign to
the general makeup Of the dominant
race as it is in the Northwest, and
practically speaking, write over his
door, "All coons look alike to me. :"
The laws should be used on those of
the dominant race who persist in
such cussedness by the Negroes, and
those Of the Negro race who try the
same should be tabooed socially by
the Negroes as though they were in
the last stages of leprosy. AS badly
as the Jews have been treated in this
country, Jews always accommodate
Jews, Cinnamon, japanese, Indians,
all accommodate their kind, but the
Negro refuses to accommodate his
own kind. The sooner the Negro
race turns such skunks down socially
by shutting their doors in their faces
the sooner will such be thing Of the
past. Only colored men ignorant,
illiterate and still troubled with the
relies of slavery days in their bones,
handed down from sire to son, are
guilty Of such, and to eradicate that
spirit the most positive steps should
be taken.

The horrors coming from China
Of the Wholesale slaughtering Of the
Christian missionaries are only
equaled by the horrors coming from
New Orleans, our own ''land of the
free and home Of the brave of the
wholesale slaughtering of Negroes,
Tor no other crime than that they are
Negroes. In China the Boxers have
determined to free themselves and
their country from the reign of
Western Anglo-Saxon civilization,
because such is obnoxious to them,
and in New Orleans the Caucasians
are endeayoring to free themselves
and their community of the black
man, who is very Objectionable to
them. Both the Chinese Boxers and
the New Orleans Caucasians have
taken the determination route to
accomplish their purposes, and today
human gore is flowing in both places
like mountain water. The world
stands aghast at the Chinese atroci-
ties, but has naught to sayat the Cau-
casian hellishness in New Orleans.
If such be the fruits Of Christian civ
ilization, then no wonder the Chinese
are doing all in their power to drive
Christian influence from their land.

ing made by the anti-Wilson men

other reason than because Stewart
received his appointment at the
hands Of Senator Wilson, seem to me
puerile as well as political spite work.
and the petition will not receive the
least bit of consideration when it
reaches Washington City. Such may
be politics from some mems stand
point, but it strikes me that their
standpoint is a rather low one. Such
actions as that, if carried too far,
might defeat the Republican nomi-
nees in this state, which would mean
loss of not less than $4,000, 900
and perhaps twice that much. This

Mr. E. H. Holmes, the well-known
Spokane colored man, who is prose-
cutting prominent restaurant keeper
Of that city for refusing to serve him
self and wife as other guests, has
drawn first blood, pugilistically
speaking, for he succeeded in having
his man bound over to the superior
court after stubbornly fought legal
battle before a local justice of the
peace, which lasted whole week.
The justice held that the restaurant
keeper had broken the law Of the
state, and therefore held him to an
swer to the superior court for the Of
fence. That the restaurant keeper
will lose in the superior court is the
.concensus Of opinion, and should he
be fined but nominal sum for the
offense the criminal case will have
cost him fully $500 or more. But
this is not ALL Mr.. Holmes has in
stituted $4,000 damage suit against
him, and the restaurant keeper is
even more likely to lose this suit than
the criminal one, and though the
jury award Mr.. Holmes but nOmi-
nal sum the court costs, attorney
fees and other expenses will make
this second case cost Mr.. Restaurant
er another $500 or more. All told
the round sum Of 81 900, all because
he refused, when in Rome to act as
IA Roman. While many of his Gus
toners may not be stuck on eating
with colored folk, yet a majority of
them would pay no attention to it,
and those who urged him on to do
the dirty deed are now laughing in
their sleeves at him for humping his
head up against brick wall. Bet

Chehalis Bee: ''The claim has

taken. Another county we do not
