Virus in the Brain.

President Roosevelt has invited Prin-
cipal Washington to dine with him at
the White House. A number of south
ern white persons are in spasms that
resemble those said to atllict person
inoculated by the virus of hydrophia at
sight of water. The water is not the
primary cause of the spasms, but the
abnormal condition of the unfortunate
person with virus in his brain. The
virus in the brain of these southern per-
sons ia slavery. They are gradually
recovering from it, but the inherited
effects from 200 years of contact with
the coutagion cannot BE- eliminated in
one generation. We must have patience
with them in their struggles. When
Abraham Lincoln caused Frederick
Douglass to be admitted to a public re-
ception at the White House, although
the doorkeepers tried to keep him out,
and welcomed him with especial coar
tesy and cordiaity, there were people in
the North who were profoundly shocked,
and ready to prophesy that the wheels
of the universe would reverse their
action and roll backward into chaos and
black night. The real significance was
that American civilization had reached
the stage where Frederick Douglass
could be taken in without hindering its
progress.

Booker Washington to dine with him
PROFESSIONALLY, it is an example that

social recognition. But the sorely aflict-

that no man is compelled to invite to
dinner even the purest and wisest OF
gentlemen, black or white, If he does not
wish to do 1t. The best thing we can

Waters on Small Streams.

The growing demand for waterpower

data from widely different sources regard

information is more and more by engineers

Southern Seps,tiyeness.

President Roosevelt invited Booker I.
Washington, the colored head of Tuske-
gee Institute, Alabama, among other
prominent gentlemen, to come to the
White House for consultation In regard
to affairs in the South. He also invited
him to dine with him at the White House
and Mr.. Washington, it appears with
some reluctance, accepted the invitation.
1t was not State dinner and no display
was made about the affair. The Presi-
dent invited Mr.. Washington who was
a friend of some years. standing, to dine
with him privately as he had done in his
own home and at the executive mansion
at Albany when he was governor OF
New York.
This act of courtesy on the part of the
President raised the ire of some Southern
people and certain newspapers opened
walls of wrath upon him. Conspicuous
among these were the Commercially.
peal and the Scimitar, of Memphis, Tenn,
both of which printed the most extrava-
CANT editorials containing the following
paragraphs. The Scimitar said:
1.-THE most damnabe outrage which
has ever been perpetrated by any citizen
of the United States was committed Fri
day by the President, when he invited q
niger to dine with him at the White
House. 1t would not be worth more
than a passing notice IL Theodore Roo G.
welt had sat down to dinner In his own
home with Pullman palace car porter
But Roosevelt the individual and Roose.
welt the President are not to be viewed
in the same light"
The Commerc al-Appeal said: "Thit
is white mans country. 1t will con
tinue to be such as long as clean blood
flows through the veins of white people
The negro will remain in the south. He
is entitled to his rights under the law
and the men who stand for white su.
premacy are the strongest advocates OF
granting him these rights. But beyond
that they will not go. The example OF
President or potentate cannot change
their views. Their reasons are good and
sufficient. If some coarse-fibred meu
cannot understand them, it is not the
concern of the southern people. Stuff.
Gent answer to them is that race suprem.
acy precludes social equality"
Another editorial, headed "Roos4velts
Bad Break" concludes. "Pres. Roose.
welt has committed a blunder that i:
worse than crime, and no atonement OF
future act of his can remove the self
imprinted stigma"
The senstiveness of an element In the
suth in regard to the negro, and theil
extreme fear that equality, political Oh
social, may be accorded the colored race
amounts to a mania. 1t is not at all i'm
probable that the editors who wrote the
foregoing drew their sustenanee in very
early life from the warm breast of q
negro nurse, and yet they are outraged
because President Roosevelt sits at his
own table with representative man of
that desplsed race.
This act had no political significance
and we cannot believe the better repte-
sentative men of the south, the great
majority of its citizens, sustain these
newspapers in their unwarranted attack.
President Roosevelt is not disturbed by
the incident and it is hoped he will not
give the perpetrators the notoriety they
evidently crave, by taking any official
notice of it.

The gain in the state tax from the las

the state tax WAS 1928 746. 16, aud fol
the first half of 1901, $24l, 533 50. Thi:
Increase is accounted for by the decrease

The numbers of the Living Age which
have appeared thus far this month have
been even more interesting than usual,
Special articles, stories, poems, and the
literary supplement, giving readings
from the new books, and gossip on books
and authors, are, in brief, the good
things spread before the reader. Chief
among the contributions may be placed
the following Society Croakers,
1.-The Letters of Elizabeth" "Fact in
Literature" "The South Country, ""The
Spectacular Element in Drama, ""Russia
and Her Problem" I'm Perls in the
Wilderness" "Welsh Literature of the

Anarchists" and "Modern Corruption
Probably the last literary work done
by President Roosevelt before the as.
sassination of President Mckinley raised
him to the chief executive Office of the
United States, was the preparation of an
article on William II. Taft, Governor of
the Philippines. This article was writ
ten in August, and appears in The Out
look of September n. 1t is particularly
noteworthy, not only as cordial appre-
citation of Governor Tatt's remarkable
personal qualities, but as in a measure
foreshadowing President RooseVelts
