The proposition of national
convention to discuss the enforce
ment of tho civil rights of the
colored race in the South is not un-
worthy of cons sheraton. Such a
convention would not only give
additional publicity to the various
phases of the problem, but would
tend to crystalize and concentrate
public opinion throughout the
United States. Thomas Henry
Huxley discussing the slavery issue
during our Civil war, said that in his
view it was better for a many to go
wrong in freedom than to go right
in chains--better not only for the
man, but also for the race. Tyranny
always implies a tyrant-and no
man can occupy tie position of a
tyrant except to his own moral in
jury. Likewise, no class can Cypress
another class without resultant
moral injury to the class constitut-
ing the oppressors. Political justice
is the ideal Of civilization-the aim
Of the most enlightened people in all
parts OF the earth, and the interests
of humanity are fast becoming so
closely interviewer that political in
justice anywhere affects directly or
indirectly many at a distance as
we'll as those within the immediate
sphere of it's influence.

WEATHER A HANDICAP
PITCHER ORTIZ WAS HIT VERY
HARD BY THE GoTHAMITES.
Races at Jamaica-Golf at Garden City
-Tipman and Myers Fast Bout
Bowling Figures.

The New York Americans treated the
small crowd that shivered in the marrow
reaching wind at American League Park,
New York. yesterday to fine exhibition
of batting and fielding. The short right
field again helped the batting, one side no
more than the other, and eight of the to-
tai hits went into Keelers valley, but,
while some Of them would have been
caught with an extended field, others would
not have been, and the hitting of the To-
Gals was hard and heavy on it's own merits.
Jimmy Williams bagged a brace of two
baggers. one triple and one single. Spells
that fell to Setback were three two-bag-
gers. The New YOrks won easily once
they got their bludgeons to swinging free
ly. The New York infield did the sharpest
sort of work on ground hits and in field
ing as well as batting the locals outplayed
the Washngtons. The game, however,
was marred by almost continuous fussing
and jawing at the umpire. There was a
lot of obnoxious jabbering from the bench
by both Sides Nobody was put out OF
the game. but several should have been.
There was more roofing for the home
team than on the previous day and more
enthusiasm when Griffith's men began to
lace the ball. Selbach's double over the
precipise and Ryan's single gave the SEN
ators a run in the first inning. The New
Yorks went this one better in their half
on hits by Mcfarland, Williams and Gan
eel and wild pitch. The wild pitch hit
the umpire, and, under the rules, the man
on third was entitled to score. Neverthe-
less, three or four Washingtons gathered
around Umpire Carruthers. kicking, and
telling him to get out Of the way of the
ball. The Washingtons hammered out two
runs on long hits in the third inning and
that was the end of their scoring.
Orths delusion that he held the New
York hitterS safe shattered in the
fifth inning, when he was jostled for two
singles and two triples and made an
error himself The New Yorks made two
more runs later by resumption of mus
