CLEVELAND PRAISES
JOSEPH JEFFERSON
Love Was So Great He Feels as
Though He Should Be a
Silent Mourner.

Princeton, April 24-Grover Cleveland
today paid a tribute to Joseph Jefferson,
who died at West Palm Beach. Mr. Cleve-
land seemed deeply affected. He said:
"It is difficult for me to speak of Mr..
Jefferson. He was closely my friend; his
delightful traits were so manifest to me
In confidential intimacy, and my love for
him was so great that his death caused
me to feel like mourner whose sorrow
should be silent
"All know my friends professional su-
premacy and his conscientious service in
professional work; many knew how zeal
ousy he defended dramatic art, and how
completely he illustrated the Importance
of its cleanliness: many l;new how free
he was from hatred. malice and all un-
charlta bleness; but fewer knew how har-
moniously his qualities of heart and mind
and conscience blended in the creation of
an honest, upright, sincere and God-fear-
ing man.
II believe that in death he has reached
a world where the mercy of God abounds;
and | know that In the world of men the
sadness of his loss will be felt the most by
those who knew him best"

telling them If they did not. they would
see their places usurped by others, as has
been the case with the BARRIERS in many of
the large towns.
Germans and F'renchmen, he said. were
taking the places of the negro BARRIERS,
because they were cleaner and did bet
ter work The race problem, he said
later had never been solved, despite all
the plans to that end.
"'rhe negro is here, and Is here to stay,
and he cannot be amalgamated, nor will
he die, and II a man has one drop Of
negro blood In his veins, that makes him
a negro, and he must be so classed.'
He urged his hearers to draw the line
against the bad negro, so the white peo-
pie would judge the negro from another
standpoint than that of the worst ele-
ment.
