the police board or the fire commission

that the increases in salaries to be
paid city officials for the coming year
will exceed $4,000. That is, every person
i in the city Of Richmond. according to the

The Negro in, Haiti.

In the current issue OF the independent
there is ali article on Santo Domingo by
Mr.. William Thorpe, an Ehglishman. VINO
for five years was editor OF the Daily
Cleaner, Of Kingston, jamaica. III which
position ho had exceptional facilities 70
gather information concerning conditions
| in the West indies. lie confirms the re-
ports Of others that the negroes Of Haiti
| and Santo Domingo have dcgeneratcd into
barbarlsm, and that they nre about as
low an order OF human, beings ms 1t is
! possible to conceive. There are some hon
orablc exceptions but what he says IS
trio OF tho masses.
But tho one thing In his article which
especially interests us Is what he has to
say about tho hatred Of the negro
for the white man. He tells us that
white people are dislikedv both in
Iiatl and santo Domingo; but that tho
dislike is more bitter in santo Domingo,
the .republic Of mulatto'b than 1t is In
Haiti, the republic q. negroes. This
.antipathy,,,5 as he calls it, is responsible
Americans and Europeans. Whenever
money and supplies are needed by the
Insurgents, or the administration OF the
hour, the foreigners are the first to be
plunlered, and the "at1tipathy" is 50
great that foreigners submit to all sorts
Of outrages rather than take their cases
into court a.
Mr.. Thorp relates M incident In point,
IIe recalls a case in which an English
merchant caught a thleving clerk red
handed, and being new to The country,
prosecuted him. The evidence was con-
elusive, his guilt as clear as daylight. But
the criminals lawyer was not at all dis
t,lrbed by the evidence that was piled
up against him. lie sat smiling through
out the trial. and when the prosecution
ended, turned to the nulatto judge and
said: Surely you do not mean to give
this white man the verdict at the expense
of one of your own color?"
That was the entire defense. The crowd
ed court rang with applause, and the judge
promptly discharged the prisoner. He
well knew" adds the writer, that II he
did not do So he would stand an ex-
cellent chance of assassination and GER
tainty Of removal from Office
Here Is an interesting study in race
| antagonlsm. The northern people call 1T
prejudice; Mr.. Thorp calls 1t anti
patty" prejudice" is not the word at
all, and "antipathy' is too mild. This an
tagonsm In Santo Domingo and in the
| United States and elsewhere between the
i black man and the white man grows out
of deprecated instinct which the
creator himself implanted. 1t can no
more be removed than the color of the
| skin can be changed.
| The negro thinks that he has poor
show in this country where the whites
! control the government But 1t Is certain
ly better than the show which the whites
have In Haiti and santo Domingo where
| the blacks arc in control.
