Did Washington Dine With the
President,

A Memphis dispatch to the
Nashville News says:
Booker Washington did not
dine at the White House table as
the guest of President Roosevelt
and family" is the interesting
announcement made by General
Marcus Wright of the war de-
partment at Washington, who has
been visiting in Memphis for Il
number of days.
The whole truth of the matter
is this" said General Wright.
president Roosevelt had been
anxious for some time to obtain d
truthful light on the situation in
the South. Finally, at the sug-
gestion of a number of Southern
and Northern men of both great
political parties, he sent mess
age to Booker Washington, ask
ing him to corne to the capitol for
conference regarding the negro,
his needs and his capabilities.
Washington came and the confer
ence, which was started in the
presidents executive. office and
was changed to his private Office
because of repeated Interrupt
tions, continued for five hours.
In the midst of the conference
between the Presidentand Wash
ington, lunch was sent in to the
chief executive of the nation. De-
string to continue the conversa-
ton rather than loose the time
necessary for Washington to go
to lunch, President Roosevelt
tF.ereupon ordered that lunch
he served to the negro educator
in the same room.
Now this is all there was to
that story, Washington did not
dine at the White House table,
did not break bread with the
presidents wife and daughter
and was in DO sense a guest upon
an equal footing of social equali-
ty."

Of America.

cognize the Congo Free State as
an independent nation, merely
to afford the negroes of this
country a place to which they
might emigrate when their num-
bers increased to an extent that
would make the emigration of
large numbers of their race nee
essary. The resolution passed
the senate and house, and a colo
nlzatlon of the negro in Congo
was well under way when the
United States acquired the Phil
ippines."
The acquisition of that terri
tory opened up a new and vastly
superior country for them. The
land is rich and the climate bet
ter suited to them, and there thew
would still be under the flag, a
condition which the negro likes
exceedingly we'll.
ROOT AND TAFT IMPRESSED,
I took the matter I'D with
Secretary Root and wrote to
Governor General Taft for infor-
nation and ideas on the plan of
colonlzing our negroes there.
Both were favorab1y impressed
with the idea, and I am glad to
know that it has at last been
started"
When the movements make a
start it will be like the crawfsh
hole in the Mississippi 1evees-
small at the beginning but large
enough for the river to run
through next morning.
The negroes were the first
people found in the Philippine
Islands. They are the original
inhabitants. Then came the Ma
lay pirates, who drove them back
into the hills, where Philippine
negroes now live. The Spaniards
conquered the Ma1ays. This his
tory is merely to show that the
islands are suited to the negro
race.
I have tried to put the plan in
operation without endangering
the labor of southern farmers.
and | believe under the present
scheme it will work out this way.
1t will take time of course, but
the plan, when accomplished,
will prove satisfactory to every
body"
