THE TILLMAN SITUATION.

BENJAMIN r. Tillman is slated to
sI.eak in Cleveland in the teachers
lecture course Wednesday, Dec. 10,
1906. There will be some interesting
happenings before that day, not least
of which will be a united request from
the Afro-American people of Cleveland
that Tillman's engagement be cancel
Ell for the good. Of the community"
In supporting this plea, The Cleve-
land Journal has desired and advocat-
Ell a policy of frank firmness coupled
with respect. We think very little is
accomplished by "bulldozing," blufnng
and long range spouting. Brains must
be met with brains; manhood with
manhood.
Two weeks ago we advised the peo-
pie to write Prof. Weimer a letter and
request" not demand, that he can
eel Tillman's engagement. We are
gratifled to learn that So many re-
sponded to the suggestion However.
we cannot endorse the blood and
thunder, demandatory letters that
have been written. These will only
make a bad matter worse.
The Afro-American people Of Cleve-
land want TiIlman suppressed. As
long as he advocates murder and an.
archy, they want him kept from max
ing public utterances in Cleveland.
His very presence is obnoxious, his
being is odIous to those who love lib.
erty and justice. OF this feeling. let
the world know. We have a right to
protest against those who advocate
our determination and the stronger
we do SO the more respect the people
viii have for us.-The Journal Cleve.

ELOQUENT LECTURE
CANCELLED.
coIored Citizens Vigorously Protest
Against His Appearance In cIeve-
land.

Armed with a vigorous protest
against the appearance Of Senator
Ben Tillman in the Teachers Insti-
tute lecture course of this city De-
cember 18th, delegation Of Colored
citizens Of Cleveland, lawyers, physi-
clans, ministers and business men
called on Chairman Sol weimer of
the lecture course committee Tuesday
afternoon.
They were headed by John P. Green
former government Official and legis-
lator. =
with Governor Vardaman and the
Rev. Thomas Dixon this man Tillman
was responsible for the Atlanta mas
sacre," declared Green. I'VE believe
it inimical to the best interests not
only Of the Colored people of Cleve-
land but to the community at large
TO have this man, with the fresh blood
OF the Atlantans in his hands, appear
in public address here.
He is worse than Catiline Of old,
and we protest against the importa-
ton Of such a fellow to take a part
indirectly though it be, in the instruc-
ton Of young men"
Tillman was invited to appear here
by the committee Of which Professor
Weimer is the head but with the ex-
press stipulation that he was not TO
breach the race issue. Tillman has
not yet been informed OF the stipula-
ton, as the committee was In search
Of a man with sufficient powers to
properly impress the idea on TIL
mans mind.-The Cleveland News.

I'VE are inclined in Chicago to do
other things somewhat on the radical
line. Then why turn down this black
brother in recognition? II We have
been correctly informed they now have
Colored judges in aristocratic Boston

question of desire or prejudice, but
justice that the black man merits

WASHINGTON ENDORSES TILL
MAN BLOW.

Our old friend, Hon. John p. Green,
and his associates on the committee
at Cleveland, Ohio, are to be cOngrat-
ulated on the protest 80 enectually
made against "Pitchfork" TiIlman dis
cussing the race problem in a lecture
to be delivered in that city next
month. With commendable courage
and wisdom, this Colored committee
went to those having the lecture In
charge and objected to the South Car
DINA senator touching upon anything
calculated to disturb the amity exist
ing between the races, the result be-
ing that the notorious race hatred agi-
tator was bound down by contract
not to touch upon the race problem.
This il q great victory for the Color
ed people-and the whites as well-of
Cleveland. Amy man, either white or
black. who seeks to foment bad feel
ing between the races Is the enemy to
both. and should by all means be sup
pressed-Washington Bee.

New York Evening Post, Oct. 81
Senator Tillman's views on the Ne
gro question have the great merit of
frankness. But, IL We may Judge by
the telegraphed reports, they still lead
directly to anarchy, to say nothing of
friction between the north and the
south. He would send all vicious Ne
groes to the north, and insists that
the south shall pay no further atten-
ton ito all the Yankees between Cape
Cod and hell" I'VE must cease to

soon be forced to go to shooting. And
Negroes, too, will begin to kill when
they begin to believe that the color

gardless Of good behavior" But his
most significant utterance is that
touching upon the notorious relations
OF white men with Colored women.
This is a subject that can only be
briefly touched upon in the nevspa.

suddenly begun to appear in the south

Some of the ladies connected with
the Chicago Union Hospital, bitterly
complain and state, that as that
institution, permits Colored peo-
pie TO enter it and to receive treat
ment therein, that they show their I'M
gratefulness by opposing the coming
OF Senator Benjamin R. Tillman to
this city to lecture for it's benefit.
We wish to assure the ladies' who
assume this position that the Colored
people in this city entertain the most
kindly feeling for the Chicago Union
hospital. That some OF them In con-
nection with the writer are willing to
contribute SiOO. on short notice to the
institution providing those having
charge of it will not try to ram Sena-
tor Tillman down the threats of the
law abiding Afro-Americans residing
in Chicago.

BLACK BLOOD AND WHITE.
Rev. Frank C. 5runer Defends the
Election Of Negro Judge.

Rev. Frank C. Bruner of oakwoods
Union church, last Sunday preached
on Our Brother in Black-What?" He
took for his text Acts xvii, 2s: And
God hath made OF one blood all ma
lions of men to dwell on all the face
OF the earth"
The whole trend Of bible history
is permeated with the story of master
and slave" he said. "a clear revision
OF the scriptures might make a trans
lation Of oneness. II you were to put
a drop Of black mans blood under the
miscroscope and scientifically ana
lyze the same you would find II tanta-
mount in quality to a white mans.
II produces the same conditions of In
telligence when given the same oppor-
tunity in education and longevity as
white mans.
The recent election has caused a
great noise. The shout Is on every
breeze, the idea OF Negro Judge, who
Is Just as capable as one-half elected
to the bench, only his skin is black.
Is 1t not queer we never object to any
other thing Of a carbon hue that is
good? Some OF the best timber in
the world Is black. some Of the best
berries in the woods are black, some
Of the best cattle on earth as to breed
are black. some Of the best horses
on the track are black, some Of the
best soil on the American continent
is black, some OF the best cloth that
Is thrown from the loom by the cord
Is black. Then why object to a man
II he has judicial gray matter from sit
ting on the benchf
