The damnable prejudice that exists
among whites against the Afro-Amer-
lean seems to be very catching but
for a Chinaman to catch it seems to
be the height of ridiculosity. Yet one
seems to ffave caught it. Wong Sing
Guy. a Celestial restaurant proprietor
! of Minneapolis, is defendant in a
suit brought by Odell Graham, an
-Afro-American. The complainant
states that the Chinaman refused to
serve an order for food, that he was
orderly and decorous. and insists that
the wielder of chop sticks has no right
under the Federal Constitution to thus
discriminate, and wants $500 damages.
That this is not caes of prejudice
son account Of color, solely goes with
out saying, as many hundreds of
! thousands of Afro-Americans are fair
er in complexion than the average
! Chinaman. Wong Sing Guy belongs
20 a nation of people that are great

alice samee likee Mclean man. This
only goes to prove the idiocy f.tRe
existing desire to discriminate. against
an Afro american simply because he
is an Afro-American. We have no OBJ

THE PREM NI,S YISJT.

IT the skies weep to-day--and heres S hoping they wont-it will not be for the purpose of marring President Roose-
 Velts visit to New Haven, but it will
 be out of pity for him because he has
 not heen able to be here during the preceding glowing and uplifting days of the Bicentennial His coming to-day will make a fitting climax to a celebra-
 ton which has gone from glory to glory Without let or hindrance. He will be
 welcomed here with all heartiness and good will. New Haven is not often vis- ited by President, and she is glad of this opportunity to show her respect for the head of the government And she will be especially glad to see the Presi- dent who, either deliberately, or with out thnupht of tho effect it might have on his political fortunes, ignored the foolish and wicked color line when he invited the able. sensible and useful Booker T. Washington to seat at his table. Honor to him for doing it, whether he did it deliberately or not. He is man of courage and goodwill, and -e has shown on many occasions that he appreciates men of courage and goodwill, without regard to their race. color or previous condition of servitude. And isn't this just the quail ity that the President Of free coun- try like this ought to have? Again we say, honor to the President who doesn't rank citizen of this Republic accord ing to the color of his skin or his social position"

must be the introduction of radical re- forms restricting the privileges of the great landowners. The large estates, or a considerable proportion of them,
 must be broken up. The repeal os the Corn Laws in England, he argues, gave an immense impetus to the growth of t'.e towns. but it does not follow that high duty on corn in Ger many will produce a contrary effect The attractions of town life will still exercise their influence upon the young rustics, They acquire knowledge of it's pleasures in different ways. Then there is the constant demand for fe- male donestics. which is largely sup piled by the country districts No corn duties, however high, will counteract this tendency. The Professor sees a striking resemblance between the ef- forts of the German Ministers and the celebrated combat between Mrs. Part ington and the Atlantic Ocean.
 On the principle of doing just what competitors and opponents don't want you to do. Germany might be justified in going on with her tariff programme. But it isn't always good sense to fight everybody at the same time.

\ or THE FIRST.

Within four weeks the new electric stages will succeed the horsedrawn vehicles on Fifth Avenue in New York.
 Thus the fashionable thoroughfare of the American metropolis will be the first in the world to be equipped with electric omnibuses covering it's entire length with an adequate service
 Thus saith the usually accurate Hart ford Times, but the Times forgeta that Orange street the fashionable thoroughfare of Connectlcuts metrop- oils, was long ago equipped with elec- tric omnlbuses covering it's entire length with an adequate service. It is not now so equipped, because those who did so equip 1t didn't find profit in the work. The omnibusses were expensive to buy and to run. they had to compete with horse-omnibuses. which also cov- cred the entire length of the street with an adequate. service and the peo- pie didn't patronize them enthusiastic ally. So they went away somewhere. to Chicago, we believe But we want it distinctly understood that New Haven is the metropolis of Connecticut, that 1t has fashionable thoroughfare, that it has had and rejected electric omni- buses, and that it is having celebra- ton which takes the shine off any cele- bration ever concocted in Connecticut.

4 MODEkN MiNiETLR.

There is minister in Portsmouth, Ohio, who knows how to run an up- to- date church. He has had telephone placed so that he can reach it conven- iently when he is in the pulpit, and be- side 1t he has caused to be hung a fire alarm card. The ringing of the fire alarm in Portsmouth has proved. on certain occasions, a serious interruption to religious services. Members of the congregation are very much distressed when the fire bells ring until they know that their own homes are not ablaze or in danger. Provided with telephone and firm alarm card, the pastor, by sus- pending the service moment can tell his hearers in what neighborhood the fire Is, and then, by telephone, get more specific information. Thus he hopes to quiet parishioners when they are dis turbed by the fire bells, make it unnec- essary, in the majority of cases, for any one to leave, and keep everybody in a state properly receptive of the senti- ments of his sermon.
 A good idea What an impressive use this minister could make of his fire alarm arrangement if the ancient fire were still burning. But as the fire of hell has been put out he can't scare his congregation by pretending to receive telephone messages concerning its hot ness and it's dangers.

Blessing For the Weary

But think the King of that country comes out from His tireless host And walks in this world of the weary, as if He loved it lnost For here in the dusty confusion. with eyes that are heavy and dim, He meets again the laboring men who arc looking and longing for Him. He cancels the curse of Eden and brings them blessing instead: Blessed are they that labor, for Jesus par takes of their bread. He puts His hand to their burden, He en- ters their homes at night: Who does his best shall have as guest the Master of life and of light. This is the gospel of labor-ring 1t, ye bells of the kirk The Lord of love came down from above, to live with the men who work. This Is the rose that He planted here in the thorn cursed soil-- Heaven Is blest with perfect rest, but the blessing of earth is toll.

WHERE DRAW THE LINE.

Of course 1t was bound to come.
 Compulsory education officers have found children who cannot go to school
 because their clothing Is unfit This,
 by analogy is to furnish the school board with an argument for adding free clothing to free school books.
 Next we shall learn that some chil- dren are out of school because they are too hungry to go Therefore, the board of education should provide free break fast free luncheon and free dinners for all the children who wish to attend school Then it will be disclosed that there are children out of school because there are not bathtubs, combs and other necessaries of personal cleanliness in their homes. By analogy every child attending the schools should be thrust into q bathtub on arrival, washed by the teachers, combed by the janitors and rubbed down by special corps of barbers, shampooers, manicures and pedicures while tailors measure him and dressmakers her for nice new clothes and the cooks attend to the ta ble orders.
 It is speciously urged that free school books are a.s consistent as free desks. Clearly hot. There is a limited space for desks which must be fixed to the floor for discipline and order It is said that free boks are not more so- cialistic than free teachers Teaching cost would be beyond the means of a majority of the parents whose children are in the schools. The majority of the parents have always cheerfully fur nished the books, food, clothing of their children and are ready to continue do- ing so.
 The public must furnish school sites, heat, light and instruction and the parents should do the rest. For
