Temperate Criticism Needed.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Are not racial and sectional prejudices,
which our late beloved and martyred Pres
ident did so much to allay, being stirred up
most unwisely, at this special time, by
much of the criticism as published in The
Star. as well other reputable or repre-
sentative papers - criticism both for and
against President Rooseveits dining Of a
negro? This being a free country, and It's
President free man, with the same privi-
lege as any other citizen of the United
States to invite whom he pleases to dine
with him at his own family table, 1t does
seem gross impertinence for any paper or
person. northern or southern, to call its
chief executive to task for the color or con-
dftion of any guest he may choose to select
in purely non-offical way. If all comments
or criticism could be made in spirit SO
just, liberal and respectful withal that
shown in the letter which you publish on
page Is of The Star of the 10th instant
from Lawrence Washington of Alexandria,
Va. or. where the criticism is adverse,
WIN the dignity and self-restraint of the
Memphis Commercial Appeal, from which
you quote in your issue of the 18th in
stant, such criticism would suggest itself
as proper. and consequently wise, free
dom Of the press. If, however the coun-
try is to be deluged with much of the criti-
cism as you quote 1t from some southern
papers, showing small regard for the high,
pam duty OF nOnOrlnS our CIVIL author-
tty," and editorials and comments filled
with the bitterest denunciations or most
violent or unjust criticism of the whole
south, that is, the whole white south, what
good is to be gained? Is it not just such
things that tend to embolden the wicked
and excite the morally and mentally weak
er brother to hatred. expressed by acts of
lawlessness and crime ?-even to the as
sassinating of our highest and best, the
assaulting of our purest and most helpless?
Ought not our press. both north and south,
both white and black. to feel it's RESPONSE
bility in this and look more carefully to
the possible, nay probable, result Of what
1t publishes and scatters broadcast?

SORRY FOR WATSON.

Speaking of designer Watson, Sir
Thomas said:
Il feel very much for Mr.. Watson.
He has done his best and If he does not
succeed it is simply because he has a
more able man to meet on this side in
Mr.. Herreshoff. He has worked hard
for two years on this boat and he has
neglected nothing that he thought
would help her"
Sir Thomas said that what he was
most disappointed about was the de-
feat OF the Shamrock in the windward
work.
I'VE were all so sure she would do
well in that, and in such a breeze, but
she seemed TO pound too much" He
added that there would be no change in
the trim or the sails Of the Shamrock
Edward w. Morgan, the Coluln-
bias manager, who was seen on board
the Park City after the race, said:

would be a Columbia day. Both boats
were superbly handled. We have now
two races against Shamrock sailed in
what was supposed to be Shamrock

Shamrock should not win, therefore
believe the Columbia is the best racing

SIR THOMAS WAS GAME.

Sir Thomas Upton, although plainly
depressed at the result OF the race.
stood bravely at the gangway of the
Erin and babe cordial adieu to his
guests. He also entertained a large
party of yachtsmen and ladies who Wis
tied the Erin after the days guests had
departed.
When asked what he thought OF the
race, he said:

the best boat, in fair and square race
and I maintain and believe that there
is not better skipper afioat than Cap
tain Sycamore nor a better crew than
mine. have as much esteem for my

tinued Sir Thomas. land the only con-
ISOLATION | have is know 7 have been

When asked by visiting yachtman
If he felt respondent, Sir Thomas re-
piled, pluckily:
AS long as the Shamrock flag flies
there is just as much fight in me and
until I'm beaten in the third race. IN
just as hopeful"

A GREAT COMBINATION.

Mr. Morgan said the combination Of
Jameson ano Sycamore had been a
hard one to beat.
Captain Charlie Barr. who steered
the Columbia to victory, had only this
to say:
I'VE won the race against very
powerful adversary"
Captain Sycamore. OF the Shamrock,
simply said:
I'VE did our best and were fairly
beaten by better boat"
Captain Bob" Wringe, who sailed
the Shamrock I. in her race against the
Columbia in 1899 said:
"The great surprise to me was the
wonderful windward work of the Co
lumbia was sure the Shamrock was
able to outsail her in that breeze, but
she did not"

THE FIRST TURN.

AS the yachts approached the outer

Oh the revenue cutter Gresham, the
flagship of the patrol feet instructing
them in the universal language of the
sea to change direction by the right
flank. The patrol boats swung around
to line of west and charged down upon
the excursion fleet. The latter with
bells Changing in the engine rooms Tor
more speed turned tail and the whole
fleet rushed madly to leeward OF tae
last leg of the course.
Leaving the first mark on the star
board hand the racers gybed over their
big booms and went careening for the
second mark, the Columbia gaining
slowly but surely They had covered
the first ten miles in little over fifty
minutes. When they swung around
the second stake they took in their

wind for the beat home. Both yachts
heeled until their underbodies were
lifted high over the water and their
lee rails dipped foot into the swirl

faster and pointing higher. She went
