Are All Men Created Equal.

To say that all men every in
dividuaD are born equal, IN every
sense Of the term, is to CONTRA
dict the accepted laws of nature.
To say that every race or every
person in his or their ineipiency
were equal or capable of attain
ing the same degree of efficiency
or learning, is in our opinion, also
erroneous. and nearly absurd. To
maintains that the Negro. or any
race incapable of attaining to the
same intellectual plane of any
other people, is asserting with
out anyaTproof or precedent.
Even the best anthropologists
do not hold THIS assertion to be
good. A child born of parents
whose ancestry were or are re-
fined and cultured, must surely
be superior intellectually to one
born whose fore parents, on
down the line, were ignorant
savages- This holds good in the
lower animal kingdom as well as
in the vegetable kingdom, the
better and more you cultivate
your farm the better and more
vigorous it looks and each seed is
said to improve. So there may
be some ground for one race
bog " ately inferior to the
other.

Lyncher Convicted.

News comes from North Car
DINA of the conviction of white
man charged. with having, lynch
ed a black man. The convicted
man was sentenced to fifteen
years at hard labor in the pen

More such lawful treatment of
lynching would reduce the num-
Der of snch exhibitions of law

verdict was probably Influenced
somewhat by the fact that the
man found guilty was an ex-con-
vict.
No argument however ingen-
ious can show justification for
lynching. If lynchlng is right
then law is wrong. Lynching
seems almost justified in some
extreme cases where the crime
is especially brutal and which

SHOULD MEET
THE KAISER:
Presentation Of Roosevelt Cup to
Eastern Yacht Club -President
Compared to KaisersM #

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Sept. 10
President Roosevelt has again and
again placed himself on record as an
enthusiastic supporter of amateur
sports, and as a peacemaker he COM
bined the two when he took occasion
to weld a new link of friendship be
tween the United States and Germany
in presenting a yacht race cup.
He did this by making the official
presentation of the Roosevelt cup TO
the Eastern Yacht club, the trophy
which was won by the yacht Vim of
that club during the recent intcrna-
tional yacht races Off M~arblehead,
Mass, in which several German boats
competed unsuccessfully.
The presentation was made on board
the presidents flagship. the Mayfower,
anchored in the entrance of Oyster
bay. After the presentation, which
was witnessed by a dozen representa-
tives of the yachting fraternity, includ-
ing several members of the German
crews and members of the cabinet, an
elaborate luncheon was served in the
sulnptuous dining rooms of the little
cruiser.
In presenting the trophy which the
president had allowed to bear his lame
he said that he wished to give his most
hearty Endorsement of amateur sports
of al kinds. otherwise he remarked
he would not be participating in the
function, and the trophy would not
bear his name.
The president next commended the
craftsmanship of the Germans. They
had, he said, demonstrated that they
could withstand the supreme test of
sportsmen, they could lose gracefully.
Speaking more seriously, the presi-
dent said there was q side to the races
lust run and to the function taking
place which meant far more to the
German and American nations than
the winning of the cup, that in the
craftsmanship of the two nations was
being developed a fraternal feeling
which was most desirable for the wei
fare of both countries.
The cup was presented at the con-
clusion of the speech to Commodore
Trenor l.. Park, owner of the yacht
Vim.
When luncheon was served President
Roosevelt proposed a toast to his maj
| esty the emperor of Germany. This
| was responded to later by Captain
| Hibbinghaus of the German Yacht
| club in a toast to the president of the
| United States.
Captain Weitzmann was most enth-
siastic in his Endorsement of President
Roosevelt.
HE is indeed a great man," he COM
mented. Both the emperor and the
president have many striking points OF
similarity" he concluded, "and they
should and must meet"

RECORDERS
BUSY NIGHT.
Cleaned Slate of Numerous
Cases Which Had Accumulated
During His Absence.

Recorder Pickersgill held the nrst
session of court in three days last
night, and for one hour listened to
various charges and denials.
About fifty spectators had crowded
into the little room, and for a time
some confusion took place. That the
crowd was there for pleasure was
plainly seen from the numerous
winks and smiles that were portray
ed on the many faces present.
The first case to be decided was
that of Patrick Dunn against Mrs.
Balinsky, of n Elizabeth street.
Dunn's wife, it seems, had somehow
got into trouble with the accused,
and Dunn himself, according to the
evidence, was also in the scrape. Mr..
Dunn had a witness named Steve
Mitchell to testify, and while giving
his views of the case Mitchell with
the style of an actor, created much
%merriment. Dunn made a few hui
morous remarks, but failed to pres
ent sufficient evidence to prove his
charge, and the recorder dismissed
the case.
The second case of any Importance
vas that of Joseph Matusewsky, who
vas charged by his brother, lgnatz,
with owing him a board bill. Things
were finally settled, with the agree
ment that Joseph was to pay lgnatz
S. every pay day. Ignatz wanted ten
dollar installments, but said he would
prefer to take IS than nothing.
well spoken" said the recorder.
You are a wise man"
A case was then heard in which a
stolen bicycle was involved. This
was finally settled.
John Cerankoski, who was arrest
ed Thursday by Patrolman Meshrow
for being disorderly on Hall avenue,
was sentenced to sixty days in the
county Jail for the offense.
A case Of Valentus Ricoro against
Carl Jesancak for an alleged assault
was, after a short controversy, dis
missed.
A few complaints were made out
and after a number of other cases
had been tried and settled, the re-
corder breather a sigh of relief, and
filed out of the court room in the rear
of the line of spectators, who seemed
sorry that there were no more to be
tried.

Boss Strong Is Thoroughly
Alarmed at Progress Made by
FOrdyce Movement.

In spite of the fact that the social
ed regulars" declare they have moth
ing to fear from the Fordyce move
ment at the coming primaries, ar
rangements are being made to have a
mass meeting here in the interests of
Boss Strong and the ring"
Among the speakers will be Sena-
tor Hillery, of Morris county, who
was so badly beaten there recently in
a debate with Senator Colby. An
other speaker will be Assemblyman
Barber who is the recognized ring
leader on the floor of the assembly
and whose duty it is to e that all
tons are properly smothered in COM
mittee.
Some of the followers of Boss
Strong's organization met in Odd
Fellows hall last night under the
name of the old Perth Amboy Repub-
lican Club, and made arrangements
for the meeting.
While it was decided that the For
dyce movement was not worth MOTTO
ing and that Jackson would be nomi-
mated without opposition, it was
thought well to stir up as much en-
thusiasm as possible for the machine.
Plenty of red fire will be ordered,
there will be music, and the faithful
will be asked to parade, while Jack
son, he who has befriended Perth
Amboy SO often, will probably ride
in a carriage.
The meeting is to be held in Wash
ington hall Wednesday night, the
day after Senator LaFollette speaks
in the interest of clean politics and
good government. The points Sena-
tor LaFollette will make against
bossism, and ring rule will be attack
ed and an effort will be made to GOV
er them
OF course, Boss Strong is not scar
ed, but then he thinks it will be well
to have as big a machine" meeting
as possible before the primaries.

RESENTS ATTACK.
Hackensack Editor Denies Charge That He
Sold influence of Paper.

HACKENSACK, Sept. 15.-At 9
meeting of lrepublicans in Rutherford
Thursday night, Guy l.. Fake, of that
town, Il candidate for assembly on
the regular republican ticket, per-
sonally attacked Caleb Van H. Whit
beck, of Hackensack, a candidate for
assembly on the Colby ticket. Fake
charged that MI. Whitbeck at one
time had sold out the influence of
his paper, the Evening Record, and
that he was not a proper man to send
to the Legislature. Mr.. Fake said he
had seen a letter signed by Mr.. Whit
beck which indicated that the Hack
ensack editor had been tricky in pol
itics. Mr.. Whitbeck, referring to the
attack on him, says:
IF Mr.. Fake saw any letter at all,
it was one which was written to n
certain prominent man in this county.
Waving the fact that the letter WAS
private correspondence, and that the
person showing it is a cad, a sneak,
and a coward, there was nothing in
the letter to give Mr.. Fake a right to
make the statement he did. If Mr..
Fake will substantiate this statement
and declare that he made it, or if
witnesses will declare that it was
made, there will be a suit in the
county courts"
