In him to Imagine that his private acts

that when Mr.. Roosevelt sits down 70

he that moment declares to all the world
thar, In the Judgment OF the. president of
the United States, the negro is the social
equal Of the white man.
Prom that view. even though II be ex-
pressed by the chief magistrate Of the
naton Americans Of the Southern States
promptly and emphatlcally dissent. Tie
negro Is not the social equal OF the white
man. Social equality between the white
race and the black race has never existed
and never will exist. Tho truth OF that
statement Is written ia letters Of living
light In the records OF the human race.
Il is the decision Of the ages and Mr.
Roosevelt might as well attempt to rub
the stars out OF the armament rs to try
to erase that conviction from the heart

after with such esgerness as J. Pier
pont Morgan has been BY the very
biggest people, but in very
few instances he has declined all
Inequalities because business absorbs
his time so much that he cannot in

with Lord Rothschild on Monday,
and as matter of duty, religiously
attended all entertainments for the
New York Chamber, but he was
resolute against being lionized by
the social crowd. Mr.. Morgan owns
the beautiful suburban residence
Dover Lodge, in ROehampton, at the
edge of Putney Heath. Here, on
Saturday night, he entertained a
small party, including Lord Alfred
Miner, who rivals him as the most
desired guest in London society at
the moment, but who, like him,
keeps aloof from society. Clinton
Dawkins, junior partner of Morgan's
London house, succeeded Lord
Miner as financial adviser of the
Khedive of Egypt. They are also
old college chums.
