The negro will remain in the South. He

premacy are the strongest advocates Of

Another editorial, headed "Roosevelt's
Bad Break" concludes:
President Roosevelt has committed a
blunder that is worse than crime, and
no atonement or future act of his can re-
move the self-imprinted stigma
SHOCK TO SENTIMENT.
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle says:
THE news from Washington that Presi-
dent Booker T. Washington, of Tusl1egee
! Institute, was a guest in the White House
at dinner with President and Mrs. Roose-
Welt and family, and that after dinner
there was the usual social hour over
cigars. is distinct shock to the favor
able sentiment that was crystaliZing in
the South for the new President.
While encouraging the people in the
(! hope that the negro is to be largely elm
| mated from Office in the South, President
Roosevelt throws the fat in the fire by
giving countenance to the negro's claims
| for social equality by having one to dine
in the White House.
President Roosevelt has made a mis-
tal1e-one that will not only efface the
good impression he had begun to create
in the South, but one that will actively
antagonize southern people and meet the
disapproral Of good Anglo-Saxon senti-
ment in ali ATTITUDES.
THE South does not relish the negro
IN office, but that is a small matter com
pared with its unalterab,e opposition to
social equality between the races. Pres
ident Roosevelt has flown in the face
of public sentiment and preciptated an

BAD TASTE.
The American of Nashville Tenn
says:
I President Roosevelt has made a mis-

dine with him at the White House. 1t
is an error of Judgment and a breach of
good taste which can have no good en-
feet in any way. II can be Of no pos
sihle advantage to the race to which
Washington belongs and it is not caIcu-s
lated to win either friends or sympathy
for Roosevelt in the South The South
has kindly feeling for Roosevelt. and
It is not inclined to indulge in capHous
criticism Of him. but he cannot expect.
the South to refrain from cratcising his

The times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1890-1903, 1901-10-20

That the South IS aroused at the action
OF President Roosevelt in entertaining a
negro at his dinner table is attested by
the denunciato1y ring of the southern
press yesterday morning.
The general opinion appears to be that
in going gut of his way to entertain a
negro in strictly social way, the President
has Haunted tie red flag in the face OF
the South for no other apparent purpose
than for the pleasure Of exercising his
power to faunt. His action is looked up
on as not only unwaIranted by conditions
at present, but as showing decided lack
Of diplomacy or even ordinary common
sense.
From the attitude of the press it will
easily be seen that the people have long
recognized that Mr.. Roosevelt was a low
er of the spectacular, was g, player for no
toriety and delighted in occupying the
center OF the stage, and that therefore
such an act against social decency on his
part, while not expected, would not cause
a shock to the public as if it had been
committed by some other chief executive
OF a white nation.
That this attitude Of President Roosevelt
toward the white people OF his country will
be equivalent to political suicide is widely
conceded That President Roosevelt has
likewise destroyed all chance of Republic
can party advancement in the South, at
least during his administration, is ike
wise acknowledged.
Following are extracts from the COM
ments made by Southern papers:
DAMNABLE OUTRAGE.
The Scinitar of Memphis, Tenn, says:
The most damnable outrage which has
ever been perpetrated by any citizen OF
the United States was committed yes
terday hy the President when he invited
a niger TO dine with him at the White
House. 1t WOULD not be worth more
than a passing notice il Theodore Roose-
Welt had sat down to dinner in his own
home with Pullman paiace-car porter,
but Roosevelt the individual, and Roose-
Welt the president, are not to be viewed
IN the same light.
Had the guest OF the President on the
occasion mentioned been black Repub-
llcan OF Hayti, no doubt there might
have been some excuse because of Dip
lonatic reasons. but the fact that he
Went out OF his way and extended spe-
cial invitation to a niger to sit down
at table with hina-a Niger whose only
claim to distinction is that. by compare
scn with the balance OF his race, he has
been considered somewhat superior.
OF the political effect of the incident 1t
Gays:
The President has rudely shattered
any expectations that may have arisen
from his announced intention to make the
Republican party IN the South respect
able, He has closed the door to any ac-
cessions OF southern white men to the
Republican ranks. They can no more ig
