In Its editorial comment on the
letter written by the negro. Henry
5. Baker to the Washing Post. in
which he (Baker) claimed that
the election of Roosevelt meant
social equality for the nogro race,
the New Orleans Times Democrat

There is an element of tragedy

What shame il is that the Re-

Nothing. The fact is they do not
intend doing anything. Mr..
Roosevelt's election will in no way
help the cause of the black man.
Lit will harm more than help him.
The white people at the South
have for years expended one-third
of the school revenue in an effort
To give negro children the ad-
vantages of common school edu-
cation, while fhe negro has paid a
very small fraction of the taxes
levied and collected for all purpo-
ses. Public and private contri-
buttons have been made for the
same purpose by white men. Can
1t be contended that this attitude
of Southern white men shows any
sort of unfriendliness for the
negro? The fact is that the South
ern white men have always shown
a disposition to aid the deserving
negro, even to the extent of quail
flying him TO vote the Republican
ticket by aiforiing an opportunity
for such education as would fit
him for the exercise of the high
privilege. On the other hand, the
Repu blican party has offered him
no more than scanty representa-
tion in party conventions, small
office now and then, and a few
minor. political privileges of no
particular value. Such is the re-
cord. Promises made in the plat
form at Chicago were made for
the purpose of catching the negro
vote in pivotal States. If the

ing, as the negro Baker dreams,

Aberdeen's March Upward.

The advancement of Aberdeen
since the saloon has been relegated
forever from the city is phenome-
nal under the circumstances, and
il attracting attention far and near.
Our esteemed contemporary, the
Colum bus Commercial has taken
notice of the healthy change in an
editorial mention, which but half
tells the difference now and under
the saloon regime.
The Commercial has dealt only
with the benefits that have occurred
To the city industrially and COM
mercially and has taken no cog
nizance of the higher moral. re-
igious and social tone which the
exodus of the saloon has impaired.
No comparison of Aberdeen
"wet" aud Aberdeen dry" can be
instituted, as it is a mathematical
principle that only like things can
be compared, and Aberdeen un-
der the old regime is not like
\ berdeen under the new. If we
ever arrive at the true difference,
it must be done by contrast.
The Columbus Commercial
says:
Aberdeen seems to have pros
psred wonderfully nnder the
regime of prohibition. During
the ten years between 1890 and
1900. when there were open sa-
looms, the city steadily retroce-d-

Euchre and Poker.

The following discrimination of
the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
between the games of progressive
euchre, bridge whist etc. and the
game of poker, will meet the views
of thousands of church mem bers
in Memphis as well as elsewhere.
The Weekly considers it too moot
ed question to venture an opin-
ion.
Mayor Williams will make a
mistake if he pays any serious at
tention TO games of progressive
euchre or bridge whist wherein
prizes are played for. This is in
no sense of the word gam bling,
for no player risks anything or
losses anything There is no more
gam bling in this than there is in
Offering a prize or a medal for the
best composition or best Grafton
at school. The Mayor cannot af-
ford seriously to lend himself to
such an absurdity. and thus risk
the chance of making his admins
tration ridiculous. Poker, how
ever. is gam bling game. where
the players stand to win or lose.
and it comes within the prohibitive
order.
