No Desire for Social Equality.

From the Star OF Hope OF Charlotte, y. c., Official
Orga of African Methodist Church.
No one seriously believes nor need be de-
iirious with fear that either the President
Or Mr.. Washington is trying to bring about
social equality between the two races in
this country. The mountains would sooner
fly from their firm foundation than that
such a thing could be done. In all truth
and candor, We verify know that the better
class of negroes who feel that they are as
good as any other race of people that God
has made, because the Bible saws God
is no respecter Of persons. but has made
us all of one blood. are as bitterly opposed
to social equality with races that hate
them along this line as oil is with water
and the scalawags or worst class of negroes
Will never have social equality with any
race except in prison or perdttion. If the
better class of white people will talk with
the better class OF negroes they will
quickly find that the better class of negroes
regard social equality with them as an iri-
descent dream. The negroes are not ask
ing for social equality, but as American
citizens simply for their God-given and
constitutional rights. When the white in
huential Americans cease drawing down
the blinds of their souls putting up the
shutters of their minds. shutting the door
of justice in our faces and locking Ii with
the key of prejudice, simply because we are
negroes. the race problem WILL be solyed
and not until then

Experience of VfrEinian With
Green Goods Men.

T F. Robinson an elderly resident of
| Irongate Allegheny county, Va, dld not
cast his vote yesterday because he was IN
PENNSYLVANIA in the hands of green goods
men. He reached this city this morning on
his way home and called at police head
quarters to tell of his experience. An ef-
fort was made to have him part with hum
dreds of dollars of his hard-earned money,
but he declares he did not lose cent
Green goods men have been flooding the
country with "confidential' circulars dur
| ing recent weeks, but Mr.. Robinson was
not attracted to the swindlers in this way.
! Last summer an elderly man, who gave his
| name as Smith, an invalid called at his
home in the country and was entertained
by Mr.. Robinson. The object of Smith's s
| visit to Allegheny county was the purchase
| of mineral lands, and he was also anxious
| to purchase property for a summer resort
He informed Mr.. Robinson he would pay
| $4,000 for piece of property twice the
| amount asked, but, according to Smith, b.
| D. Moss, for whom he was to make the pur-
| chase, was an eccentric old man and could
! not visit Virginia. A piece of property near
| Goshen was negotiated for, and smith lett
| the valley where he had been SO hanosoHe-
| ly entertained.
Shortly after his departure Smith sent
Mr.. Robinson some circulars, and with the
last one was a request for him to come to
| at what hotel to stop and was also informed
| that he must telegraph Homer Lee that he
was coming. The directions We're followed
and shortly after reaching hotel at Beth
| lehem Homer Lees messenger called on
| him.
Il think If trap is set for these men
| they can be caught" Mr.. Robinson told a
Star reporter this morning. They are max
ing counterfeit money which can hardly be
! told from the genuine notes. Why, one or
them was an engraver for twenty years and
was president and director of bank for
twelve years They wanted me to take some
of it. but when l became sure they were
making it l refused"
Mr.. Robinson explained that they offered
him s., 600 of the bad money for $780, or
would give him $4,000 for $1,000. He was
told that man had recently been arrested
In Buffalo with 5000 of the spurious money
in his possession. After reaching Bethle-
hem, he said, one of the men wanted him
to go to New York, but he refused to go,
and then they were willing to deal with
him in the Pennsylvania town.
Capt. Boardman heard Mr.. Robinson's ac-
count of his experience and informed him
that he could do nothing in the matter, and
the Virginian returned home.

Inc question as to whether the hack

street Just south of Pennsylvania avenue
should be removed in order to prevent the
congestion of traffic at that point has been
virtually settled by Maj. Biddle, the Engin-

the trough be moved rather than the hack
stand. Maj. Biddle has forwarded the pa
pers in the case to his associates with this
Endorsement:
1T is my opinion that the police depart
ment is so much better acquainted with the
conditions of traffic than the engineer de-
partment can be. that any recommends
tions about the location of water troughs
should come from them, and this office will
be glad to place the trough at any point
