President Roosevelt's example of
dining with Booker Washington
doesn't promise to be followed to
any great extent by the people of
his own State. -Four negroes
walked into Waldorf Astoria cafe
in New York the other day, seated
themselves mt table and ordered
four glasses of whiskey. The pro-
prietors didn't want to invite a
suit for damages and they were
served, but charged SO 90 for their
drinks, the usual price being 20
cents. AS they seated themselves,
all the white patrons departed.
They then walked through the cor
ridors to the palm room where a
number of ladies were enjoying
tea. They seated themselves there
and ordered four more WHISTLES.
The ladies arose and left. Thence
they went to the Imperial and
called for four highballs, which
were served them and for which
they were asked to pay 800.
The white people left the room
at once, and the negroes lit cigar
cites and smoked awhile. As no
one administered the insult" to
them for which they seemed to be
looking, they left and went to the
Marlborough, where the walters
would not serve them, and as they

Morgan and Taxes.

When summond before the New
York tax commission, J Piermout
Morgan made an interesting state
ment. He said that he was really
not subject personally to taxation.
He objected to taking an oath re.
lating to his assessment and said
that if the oath were required he
would not pay Il penny of taxes.
On the other hand, he declared that
if the lax commission would accept
his personal statement, he would
pay taxes on n $400, 900 assessment.
The New York World recently
printed cablegram from London
in which it was said that the l.on-
don News had a report showing that
Mr. Morgan's income for the year
1902 was $40, 100000. The World
points out that if this is correct
Mr.. Morgan voluntarily offered to
pay taxes OF personal assessment
representing one-tenth of his yearly
income. The moral which the
World draws from this incident is
that it is time for the State or the
United States to levy an income tax

just and scientific system of taxa

World to wait for this Morgan incl

Ii IS absurd in the extreme to
mention in connection with the demo-

sympathy with democratic principles.
