''BOOKER It. WASHINGTON AND
THE NEGRO"

Rev. Thomas Dixon. Jr. in his ar
ticle in ''The Saturday Evening
Post" seems 70 be devoid Of shame
and careless of criticism, where his
race is involved He even appeals
20 the great Liberator. Abraham Lin
coin and endeavors 20 utilize his ut
terances as a means of justification
for his inhuman and un-christlsn
propositions. He says
"No man has expressed this idea
more clearly than Abraham Lincoln
when he said: There is a physical
difference between the white and
black races which, believe, will for
ever forbid them living together on
terms of social and political equal
ty.' A"
Whence this physical difference?
It's secret lies in the gulf of thous-
ands OF years Of inherited progress
which separates the child OF the Ar
van from the child Of the African.
Buckle in his History of Civiliza-
tion says: The actions OF bad men
produce only temporary evil, the
actions of good men only Temporal
ry good. The discoveries of genius
alone remain; It is to them we owe
all that we now have; they are for
all ages and for all times; never
young and never old. they bear the
seeds of their own lives; they are es-
sentially cumulative
Rev. Dixon seems to forget that
President Lincoln's opinions were
not those OF the Anti-Slavery leaders
He was exceedingly conservative.
So true was this that he was at one
time fereely assailed and charged
with being ''in league with He'll"
Is it surprising then that he should
have given voice TO such expressions
and 20 have finally issued the famous
Emancipation Proclamation as a
War Measure and as a military ne
cessity? Mr.. Lincoln expressed an
opinion. bat be did not place his O.
pinion upc any high moral grounds
neither did he express the opinion
that this was as IL should be.
Rev. Dixon tells OF the Anglo-Sa1
on's progress and speaks OF the
white mans superiority. all unmind.
full Of the fact that this country car
not be truthfully said to be popula'
ted by the descendants Of the great
Anglo-Saxon race He has read hil
tory. and he is aware Of the fact thai
the Latin race IS largely in evidence
IN this country
Rev. Dixon ignores the fact thai
the Caucasian race is divided int
three great branches; The Aryan
The Semitic and the Hamitic branch
es. The Ethiopian is the descendant
OF Ham and the Negroes are the de
scendants Of the Ethiopian branch.
1t has been said that we cannot
claim such a distinction, but surely
the Holy Bible justifies our conten-
ton and as the reverend gentleman

THE PREslpENT pLEAsEp
Highly Satisfied at Outcome Of His
Cannalnn Enr Pace

Campaign Fer Peace.
Oyster Bay. y. Y. Aug 30.-In his
library az Sagamore Hin President
Roosevelt received the announcement
that the Russian and Japanese pleni-
potentiaries at Portsmouth had
reached an agreement and would pro
coed at once 20 conclude the terms o.
a treaty 81 peace.
The announcement had not been ex-
pected. The president at no time dur
ing the negotiations pending had sban-
doned hope Of a successful issue OF the
conference. but he had realized more
clearly than any other oEup man in
the world the enormous dihiculties
which confronted the ENJOYS in their
deliberations. While he has not for n
moment relaxed HIS earnest efforts 10
induce the conferees 10 continue their
discussions with view 10 securing a
basis. OF agreement he had felt for as
hours that the task be had set for
himself In the interest OF humanity
and civilization was well nigh hope
less
The presidents fual appeals 70 St
Petersburg and Tolio had been made.
No response had been received from
the Orient, but from Peterhof palace
had come. In Emperor Nicholas own
words. Russia's ultmatum-'not a
kopeck OF indemnify. not a verst OF
territory"
The presidents thought Of this anal
appeal was interrupted by the tinkle
OF the bell Of the telephone on his
desk. Mr. Loeb. secretary 70 the pres
ident- who was en gagged with him at
the moment In work on the peace ne.
gotiations. answered the call.
"What?" he eagerly inquired as the
message was given him The message
was repeated.
He manifested so much excitement
and Incredibly that the president in
quired: What is it,"
1T is announced in an Official bulIe-
tin from Portsmouth" replied Secre-
tary Loeb. that the plenIpotentiaries
have agreed on all points OF differ.
ence and will proceed AZ once to ne
gotlate a treaty OF peace"
That is fine-splendidi" exclaimed
the president "But"-as a doubt
passed through his mind-"do you
think II Is authenticg"
1T is 4 perfectly definite state
ment." Mt Loeb responded.
Good! Good" the president de
clared.
Omcial confirmation OF the historic
tidirEs reached the president In a
cipher dispatch from Portsmouth. BY
authority and az the request of Baron
Komura, the chief envoy Of Japan. the
dispatch stated.
THE plenipotentiaries OF Japan
have Withdrawn their claim for REIN.
bursement OF war expenses. and an
agreement has been reached as to the
partition OF the Island OF Sakhalin
All main points have been definitely
settled. The plenipotentiaries will now
proceed with discussion OF details"
Messages OF congratulation by the
score poured in upon the president
from people both in America aud In
Europe. The great part he has played
in bringing about the success Of the
conference ani in promoting the inter
ests of civilization is recognized
throughout the world. as IS Indicated
by the cordially and wide range GOV
cred by the eonsratulatory disp.tches
