Sc much for the military side of the
case. wish to speak from the stand
point Of the race question. 1t is of
the utmost importance to all our peo-
pie that we deal with each man on his
merits as a man, not as a member of
certain race; that we Judge him by
his conduct not by his color. II colored
men elect to stand by criminals of
their own race because they are of their
own race, they lay UP for themselves
dreadful day of reckoning. Any con-
duct by colored people tending to shield
an evil doer because he is of their own
race means the degradation of the race;
means the damage of the white man,
but means the ruin of the black race.
In this l do not claim as a favor. but
challenge as my right, the support Of
every citizen in this country, of what
ever color, who has the spirit of gen.
uine far-sighted patriotism.

THE PRESIDENTS REPLY

One has but to read the firm, manly
message of President Roosevelt In Tne
Statesman today, replying to the reso-
tuition of the senate inQuiring into
the discharge Of the colored soldiers at
Brownsville, Tex, to realize the sturdy
patriotism and strength of character
Of the nations executive. Too, the
reader may complement to what
lengths the enemies of the president
will go in trying to create sentiment
among the people inimical to his per-
sonal interests and official conduct
of office.
President Roosevelt minces no words
in his reply to the senate and his
wouldbe detractors. He hits straight
from the shoulder with language forcf-
BILE and convincing. There is no equi-.
vocation. He calls those black raiders
murderers and declares the men who
aided in shielding them are equally
guilty.
The reading of the message must
convince every reasonable reader that
the president is right and that his de-
tractors have nothing behind them but
a desire to do him injury in the at
tempted racial agitation. His descrip-
ton of the shooting into houses where
women and children huddled in terror,
Of the undisputed fact that at least
noncommissioned officers must have
known of the intended raid and the
raiders and his scathing denunciation
of those soldiers who made them
selves accessories by refusing to sur
render the murderers, is sufficiently
explicit to bring about universal sup
port of his position.
But best of all is the presidents
fearless assertion that "a blacker deed
never stained the annals Of the army"
And that final sentence, in which he
says:
I'm this I do not claim as a favor, |
but challenge as my right, the support |
of every citizen in this country, of |
whatever color, who has the spirit of |
genuine, far sighted patriotism"

There is no doubt some of those
councilmen went too fast in the matter
of purchasing a city cemetery. To
take it for granted that the state
ments Of the statesmen are correct is
not business like AS a matter of
fact Spokane found it cost 81. and
even more, to burn a ton of garbage.
And residents of the district in which
the Spokane crematory is located have
been fighting against the odors ever
since the first day the crematory was
started. At the present time a move
ment is on foot to move the plant be-
cause OF the terrific smells which have
injured all property values in the
neighborhood. 1t would be well for the
city officials to make a thorough in

Comrades of the murderers by their
own actions rendered it necessary eth
to leave all the men, including the MUIR

permit such outrages to be committed
with impunity.

No BIacker Deed.
A blacker deed never stained the an

by another, only less black, in the
shape of the successful conspiracy of
silence for the purpose of shielding
those taking part in the original con-
spiracy and murder. The soldiers are
not school boys on frolic. They
are full-grown men in the uniform of
the United States army, sworn to up
hold the laws of the United States and
are under every obligation and oath,
not merely to refrain from criminality,
but, with the sturdiest rigor, hunt down
criminality and the crime they commit
ted, or connived at, was murder.
