is one argument stronger than an

THE CAPITAL SAVINGS BANK

The temporary embarrassment Of
the Capital Savings bank comes as a
surprise and shock to the friends of
Negro enterprise everywhere. That a
financial corporation which had sue
cessfully weathered the panic of 1898
should fail in the high tide of pros
perity mahes the situation all tn
more difficult to understand. It ap-
pears, however, that for some time
there has been a quiet drain upon the
resources of the bank and the reserve
had become so low that rather than
run further risk OF the funds of the
depositors or the company, it was de-
cided best to close the doors of the
institution for at least sixty days, at
which time it is hoped that business
can be safely resumed.
The managers of the Capital Saw
ings bank are among the best citi-
Zens and are gentlemen of unimpeach-
able integrity. They have ample
means TO pay all obligations ten times
over and the people who have in
trusted funds to their keeping may
rest assured that they will receive dol
lar for dollar.
Confidence is everything to the sue
cess of a business and we trust that
important element can be resorted
in time TO Guarantee a future for this
corporation Its destruction cannot
fail to inact injury upon every other
concern rperated by colored people.

SATURDAY. NovE mBER 90 1902.
CAN'T BRIGHTEN THE PRESI-
DENT.

The absurd attempt of the lily
Whites of the south to intimidate
President Roosevelt will fail Of its
purpose. No threat of causing his
defeat for the nomination in 1904 will
force him to abandon the patriotic
position he has taken in the matter
recognizing the Negro allies of the Re-
publican party on the same plane as
any other element of the organization
OF which he is the official head. The
party of Lincoln and Grant was found
ed upon the distinct proposition that
all men were Grated free and stood
upon an equal footing before the law.
To abandon this fundamental prin-
ciple and leave the doctrine of human
rights for the flesh nnts of commercial
ism would be TO dismiss all claims
upon the conscience of the redemption
of mankind. The Republican party,
in some respects, has strayed away
from its time-honored obligations, but
the logic of events and the few loyal
spirits who remained true to the gos-
pei of the fathers nave combined to
point out the error of its ways. and
the return to the old mooring has been
swift and positive. The mad chase
after strange gods has been checked
in timely fashion by the sober action
or the party's most sagacious leaders,
and new era of robust and heaIthful

appeal from judgment OF District
Magistrate Lyle A. Dickey awarding
$75 damages to Young Amin, on ac
count OF the ciDsing OF Auim's res
taurant by the sheriff IN carrying
out an execution against the Yvt
Wo Chan Company. Anim's res
taurant was on Maunskea street
and he swore that it was max pg
profit OF so day. On June 6
Deputy Sheriff McGurn appeared
with an exacutio, against the Y,e
Wo Chan Company and se;zsd all
the property in the restaurant, t,
valued at 500, closing up ths place.
Amin sued for $500 damagea,
claiming that the restaurant and all
property therein were his, and had
nothing to do with the Yee Wo
Chan Company. He was awarded
$75 and costs by D:ckey, and the
High Sheriff has now taken The mat
ter to the Circuit Court.

for taxes amounting to $96 on pro

hold under lease which required
him to pay the taxes. He did not
do SO and the plaintiffs paid the
money and sued TO recover it.

Is DOLE AN AMRRIoANp

Governor Sanford British Dole
of Hawaii issued proclamation
ordering all government Offices in
that territory closed on June 26tb,
ia honor of the coronation OF
King Edward VII. We are pre-
pared to say that no such recogni-
ton OF the day was given by the
head OF any state, territorial or
municipal government on the Main
land. Governor Dole's action in
this matter stands without a pre-.
oedent and has met with severe
criticism at the hands OF the
thoughtful press in this country.
Fortunately the pride and patrio,
tism OF the Americans in Hawaii was
saved by the point blank refusal ol
Circuit Judge Humphreys to obey
the Governors proclamation. The
Judge not only refused to adjourn
bis court, but used some very forci
BILE language in criticizing the atti-
tude OF the Governor. Good, better
