descript, an embarrassment to his well
wishers. and a trouble to himseif?"
Boston should see it hat Booker gets
in. Then Roosevelt should send some
educated negro to take the place Of
Ambassador Choate at the Court Of st.
James. England. He might also send
one to France where accomplished half
breeds have been honored in the past
The tone Of the ablest southern news
papers is very much alike. The Atlanta
Journal has a long editorial and in it
says:
He has done a great injury to the
negroes of h whole country, especial
ly those of h south, and has damaged
the good influence of the wisest and
most useful negro in America. .
President Roosevelt's opinion of The
proper social relations of the two races
is his w affair, but in demonstrating
his contempt for the color line which
the great majority of his fellow citizens
regard as proper and indellible he mas
made n of those blunders of Judgment
that are more deleterious in their ef-
fects than many an offense against
statutory law would be-"
The Memphis Commercial-Appeal,
another gold ryan, says:
But the color line must be drawn,
and drawn firmly, when the social as
pect of the matter is considered. Pres
ident Roosevelt has committed a blum
der that is worse han a crime, and no
atonement or future act of his can re-
move the se~lf-imprinted stigma"
1t insists that all democrats appoint
ed by Roosevelt in the south should at
once resign. They will do that if they
are gentlemen.
The able New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat says:
1T is absurd in him to imagine that
his private acts either will be or can
be ASSOCIATED from his official charac-
ter"
The Memphis Scimitar has it:
THE president must understand that
he has alienated from him some mil
lions of his fellow-countryment who
were disposed to think we'll of him and
10 rejoice at any success that he might
achieve as Chief magistrate of the ma
ton
The Nashville News holds if:
His next move would apparently show
that he is intending to make a cam
AN'OA VI oOS1dI SQudllly.
1t is a useless affront to a feeling
which. whether rightly or wrongly is
1mmaterial, is deep-seated and perma-
nent in the hearts of a very large Sec
ton of the American people. While
it bitterly offends these, his act VIII
have no good effect whatsoever, and
really appears to have been without
purpose or care for results"
The New Orleans States says:
The conclusion to be drawn from
this incident is hat Mr.. Roosevelt re-
cognlzes the social equality of the ne
gro. This is something the white peo-
pie of the south a never be made to
do. 1t is plain as anything can be that
the president has placed himself out
of touch with them"
AS mentioned yesterday while govern
or of New York Roosevelt invited ne
groes to the governors house. We do
not know that New Workers. objected.
