black attendant. It Is not ''color preju- dice" but instinct, that draws the line. It Is not that the negro is black, but that he Is inherently inferior and has been subject to all other races in all times. In their hearts the professed negrophiles of the North know this as well as we of the South. It Is not a question for de- bate, but res adjudicata, l-.e decision having been handed down by the court of the ages.
 Of course, the President is at liberty to choose associates for himself and family. If he elects to take Mrs. Roosevelt with him on his approaching visit to Booker Washington at Tuskegee, or send his eldest daughter to Wellesley College and let her room with Washington's daugh- ter, there will be none to say him nay. Doubtless there will be many to applaud his 'liberality' ana commend his freedom from '.prejudice' to the country. But he must understand that he has alienated from him some millions of his fellow countrymen whos were disposed to think well of him and to rejoice at any success that he might achieve as thief Magis- trate of the nation.
 Perhaps he will care nothing for this, nor be disturbed by the consciousness of having undone so far as he could what his lamented predecessor had done to stimulate national feeling in .ne South and obliterate the memories of civil war and reconstruction-of the time when there were ''black heels on white necks. " Perhaps he will care even less for the harm that this declaration of racial equality will do to the negroes in the South by irritating the whites and silenc- ing to some extent, at least. the South erners who have tried to uplift the blacks
 But so 1t will be, and the President will find that the men he has mortally offended with seemingly deliberate intent, can be as Strenuous" and persistent as himself.

ROOSEVELT'S BAD BREAK

From the Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
 The published report in the newspapers that President Roosevelt had entertained at dinner Booker T. Washington of Tus- kegee. Ala. was a shock to the South
 that leaves behind 1t a nauseating sen- sation. Washington is a good, even a great man, but he is a negro and, out of deference to large section of the coun- try that Is opposed to all semblance of social equality, the President should have observed the amenities. It Is only very recently that President Roosevelt boast ed that his mother was Southern wo- man, and that he is half Southern by reason of that fact. By inviting a negro to his table he pays his mother small duty by insulting her inherited senti- ments and by doing violence to the ethi- cal concepts of the section whence she came.
 It Is true Booker T. Washington is more than an individual He is, in a large sense, a representative an uncre- dentialed ambassador of his race @ priest ''by the imposition of mightier hands, 1t is true, that negroes representing black governments from the South of us, and bronze and yellow men from other parts of the globe have been entertained by Presidents, both Republican and Demo- cratic, but this does not excuse Presi- dent Roosevelt's remarkable transgres- sion of the proprieties He has cut him. self off socially from the South. No Southern woman with proper self respect would now accept an invitation to the White House, nor would President Roosevelt be welcomed today in South ern homes. He has not inflamed the anger Of the Southern people, he has excited their disgust. He has not exhibited bold ness by the coarse innovation; he has manifested vulgar disregard for the feelings of those who formerly respected and admired him. Certainly the South repudiates him. It pities his Northern half. and expatriates with adherence and contempt his Southern half

 of the United States Is a long cry. It ia the President who has given offense. The Commercial-Appeal has always stood up for the rights of the negro. and expects to continue to do so. But the color line must be drawn, and drawn nrmly when the social aspect of the matter Is considered. President Roose- welt has committed blunder That ia worse than crime, and no atonement or future act of his can remove the self imprinted stigma.
 It Is now incumbent on those white Democrats of the South who have re- ceived appointments at the hands of President Roosevelt to resign their of fices. They cannot afford to remain inc recipients of any favor at his hands, certainly there is no honor attached to ms peneyolences or bestowals.
