OF the South cannot overlook the fact
that for more than two centuries the
race was In servitude to themselves and
their ancestors, establishing the rela-
tion OF master aud slave; and they are
unwilling to admit that the chasm
between the races incident to that
relation can be bridged by a constltu-
ton and laws. The condition of social
equality will probably never be attained
In sny part Of the county. because it
is not a matter to be regulated by Stat

wealth should be permitted to abridge
the civil or political rights Of any man

without great difficulty or prejudice.
Foreigners come to this country. select
their place of residence and settle down
to become a part of The body polite and
members of sscieiy. when large num-
bers come from one country about the
same time 1t Is the custom fog them 20
form settlement of their own OF To-
cate Ia settlement Of their own
nationality already formed. The trad-
ers and the artisans, the mechsnics and
laberers generally loeate In the cities,
while the farmers from she countries
Of northern Europe form colonies and
become substantial residents. Whether
they sssimilate with the Anne rlcan pop
uIation or not, they become citizens
and are permitted to vote without pro-
test. They attend the public schools
and are not excluded from any of the
advantages or privileges of organized
society. They are not barred from the
clubs and no one proposes deliberately
to deprive them Of the right OF suf
frage after they have declared their
intention to become citizens, even
though the declaration Is never COM
pleted by procuring certificates Of nat
uralzation.
The Negro, on the other hand. is be-
set with difficulties and trials unnum-
bered. Though his ancestors may have
been brought to this country three
centuries ago, and though his rights OF
citizenship and suffrage are guaranteed
by two separate amendments to the
Federal Constitution, the race Is not
only estrsc;zed socially, but also denied
in many States the civil and political
rights which the Constitution pretends
to secure. The prejudice is not weak
ened by time, bus Is apparently as
strong today as it was thirty yeass ago.
Two phases of it have become manifest
during the past few wesks-the politi'
cal phase in Kentucky and the social
phase In Milwaukee. 1t is reposted
from democratic sources that no less
than fifty thousand Kentucky demo-
Gratis would vote the republican ticket
this year if The Negro were not allowed
to vote; but prejudice is stronger than
pripetpIe. and they will stand with the |
GOebelites to sustain and perpetuate a
law which subverts popular govern
ment. rather than bear the odium of
voting the ticket supported by white
republicsns and Negroes to protect the
rights Of the majority.
Again. the Board Of Directors of the
General Federation of WomeD's Clubs,

Of the white women's clubs OF Masea'

will uuitedly insist upon Its recognition
by the admission of its delegate already
appointed TO the national meeting.
The question will not be settled by the
action OF the committee in tabling the
application for membership, but must
be debated in the General Federation.
The whole problem presents ques-
tions worthy of profound investigation
by psychologists. Is the prejudice due

No Hoid.nn in Hood River.

Hold-ups occur in Portland every
night, and at The Dalles two robberies of
this kind have taken place within the
past week Tuesday morning Hood
River citizens were startled by reports
that the two saloons had been robbed
during the night and that two men were
held up on the streets. But upon in
vestigation it was found there was no
truth in the reports. Several drunken
men were on the streets all night. The
saloon proprietors thought there might
be an attempt made to rob the saloons
and were on the alert City Marshal
Olinger was sent for at o'clock in the
morning. Two drunken Swedes claimed
to have been held up in the streets, but
they had no money to give up. After
wards they joined the two men whom
they claimed had attempted to rob them
and caroused about town. One man
who gave his name as ]. Elmer was ar
rested. On being searched an unloaded
pistol was found on his person but no
cartridges. Elmer was given hearing
before Recorder Nickelsen on the charge
of carrying concealed weapons, and was
sent to jail for four days in default of So
fine. There was no hold-up; just big
drunk by some of Hood Rivers objec-
tionable floating population.
