DR.. Du Bots and Booker Washington
Again.

Elsewhere will be found a communication
from Mr. L. NJ. Hershaw, undertaking TO
controvert the positions taken in Star
editorial headed ''Dr. Du Bots and Booker
Washington" Mr.. Hershaw commences
with a falsehood in asserting that The
Sar is engaged in a systematic effort to
discredit DIR. Chancellor and the present
board of education in their efforts to give
us a harmonious and efficient school sys-
tenn" and his subsequent contentious are as
ill-founded as his premises.
He denies any hostile animus on the part
of DIR. Du Bots or himself against Booker
Washington and then betrays his bitter
hatred of Washington by vicious slurs at
"Washington's masters and myrmldons,
his sponsors and retainers," aimed at
President Roosevelt Edward Everett Hale
and others. among the best friends the col
ored race has ever had
To show that Dr. Du Bots is not opposed
DO manual labor for his race Mr.. Hershaw
quotes the doctor as saying: II believe in
service-humble reverent service from the
blackening of boots to the whitening Of
souls -. believe in the training of chill
dren. black even as white; the leading out
of little souls into the green pastures and
beside the still waters not for self or
peace. but for lifeslit by some large vision
of beauty and goodness and truth" This
is extremely fine language though some
what obscure, but fine words butter no
parsnips'
Booker Washington does not indulge in
hgh-fown sentiment, but he is thought
full. practical man, who does things. He
aims at teaching the youth of his race
something better than the blackening of
boots" He seeks to teach the dignity and
Importance of labor whether in the work.
shop the farm. He has done a Won
derful work already, and If he is not him
dered by mistaken opposition he will
achieve yet more important results in gain
ing the confidence and respect Of the coun-
try for the negro that has been consider
ably impaired by the conduct Of the idle
and vicious members of the race. who have
congregated in the cities and are exercising
to an unpleasant extent their rights under
what Mr.. Hershaw styles their proper in
struction in genuine. and unalloyed de-
mocracy."

have failed to live up to these requirements
in matters Of strictly state Jurisdiction,
and the federal government finds itself
powerless to compel obedience to the treaty
stipulations. It was thus embar-
raised In the case Of the slaughter Of
Italians in New Orleans by a mob after
they had been acquitted by a court of the
charge of conspiring to assassinate the
chief of police No satisfactory explana-
ton was possible. appealing to the Italian
mind. The government at Rome ultimately
professed In a spirit of international cour-
tesy to be content with the payment Of
indemnity by the United States. but the
incident created a distinctly bad impression
abroad. Several other cases Of the same
nature have arisen. with the same result
The United States cannot reasonably ex-
pect Japan to understand q plea of excuse
couched in such terms as these: You are
entirely right. Your people have been bad
ly treated. It Is q shame, and we condemn
1t. But it is none Of our business. True,
the discrimination against your people has
occurred in the United States, but we have
no Jurisdiction over that particular part of
the United States. This trouble occurred
in California. What happens there Is real
ly none of our business as a nation. And
don't be annoyed at what the Canfornlans
do. They are not the whole Of the Ameri-
can people, and the great American heart
beats just as warmly for Japan as ever.
We cannot enforce our treaty. We can ask
the Californians please to behave them
selves; but if they do not comply we can
only hold up our finger at them and tell
them that they are very, very inconsiderate
of our feelings.
Suppose an American citizen temporarily
residing in the city of Sapporo, in the
province of Ishikari, in the island of Hok-
kaido which is a member of the Japanese
group, had been wantonly set upon by a
mob and beaten and robbed, and our gov
eminent had protested and asked for
redress of grievances and the Japanese
government had replied that it could not
answer for the conduct of the people OF
Sapporo, in Ishikari, in Hokkaido, they be-
ing autonomous in the matter of maltreat-
ing foreigners.
How would the American people feel
about that? Would they not then appre-
ciate how Japan feels about this matter
of San Franciscos discrimination against
the children of it's citizens?

Japan Protests,

Japan's protest against the discrlmina-
sion under which her people are suffering
in San Francisco is entirely reasonable and
should result in prompt adjustment, SO
far as the power of the United States gov
eminent can extend. Japan possesses GER
tain treaty rights in this country which
we as a nation are bound to respect and
one of these Is the right of Japanese citi-
zens here resident to the same treatment
and the same privileges enjoyed by citizens
of the United States. The government at
Toxic maintains. through the Japanese am
bassador here, that the exclusion of Japa-
nese children from the public schools of
San Francisco is an infraction of the
treaty.
Here again We have the problem offered

government to extend 10 foreigners certain

The South and Mr.. Hearst.

The Columbia. s. c.. State says very
frankly:
''And as to Mr.. Hearst: well, Mr.. Hearst
Is not yet the nominSe. He may never be;
but If he is nominated by a regular demo-
cratic national convention the south will
remain solid '.af's -+-- 81 H'-
Mr. Hearst believes this firmly. and 1t
explains the tireless energy of his organi-
zation Without the south he would be no.
where. She gives to the democratic candi-
date in presidential contests his hope of
success Counting upon her, he has but
to address himself to a few close states
elsewhere; and winning them he wins the
race. At this moment. busy as he is with
the New York situation, Mr.. Hearst would
be able upon invitation to point out to a
friend just where he would find 1t necessary
to go for electoral votes to supplement
those of the south.
But the Columbia State and Mr.. Hearst
may be mistaken. Mr.. Bryan and his
friends counted quite as confidently on the
solid south in 1896. The day after the adj
journment of the Chicago convention, the
solid south, as usual was marked off the
slate. That was velvet" for the democrat
ic nominee. But one democratic leader Of
national reputation expressed himself to
the contrary. David B. Hill, in a conf
Dental conversation with representative
of The Star, pointed out the weakness of
the platform in the border southern states.
and predicted that Kentucky. Maryland.
West Virginia and Delaware would support
the republican candidates. After the cleo
ton The Star gave Mr.. Hill credit for his
prophecy.
Organism proved to be something too
much for the democrats of those states to
swallow. and thousands of them went over
to the party for whose candidates they had
never before voted Would Hearstism fare
better? Does II not embrace all of Bryan
ism, and represent besides issues and tend
encies repugnant to southern sentiment
as expressed by Its leading newspapers of
today? 1t might be that some of the lower
southern states would join their border
sisters, and repudiate the change from de-
mocracy to socialism Accomplished by the
lavish of money in the primaries. Note
how many democrats of substance and
character in New York state are repudi-
ating Hearstism as expressed at Buffalo.
II 1t is suggested that those democrats
who turned from their party candidate in
1895 turned to opposition candidate of
exceptional personal attractiveness and so
had the change softened for them, 1t may
be mentioned that in any one Of their
leading half dozen candidates the republ-
cans have a man who in 1908 would make
personal criticism faint, II not impossible.
No democrat disguised with Hearstism, as
so many were ten years ago with Bryan
ism, would find II difficult to accept the re-
publican nominee upon a platform appeal
.ug TO the conservative sentiment of the
country.

A North Carolina minister is on the outs

want him to limit the length Of his sermons
Of the question are wrong The congrega-
ton isn't supposed to attend church for en-
tertainment, but to hear the Gospel II the
minister Is not able to make his intended
half hour. he should be accorded a longer
period. But inasmuch as a sermon or adj
dress of more than q half hours length
tends to become tiresome to the auditor, the
preacher Is likely to reach more people by
short. pithy talk than by long. wordy
discourse.
