Who Makes a Mans Place in
the Social Economy?

The Individual fixes or makes
whatever place he may have in the
social order but that place will not
be any more valuable to him or the
comr unitysthan the estimate plac-
ed upon it by the people who ap-
praise it. There is no getting
away from this proposition.-At-
lanta Independent.
Very we'll. The world has ap-
braised the value of Toussaint
lOverture to be that of one of the
most remarkable geniuses of his
age, which was truthful in such,
with Bonaparts and Wellington at
the head of them; and Hayti has
always been respected since then
because the trapscendant abilities

was appraised by the world as one
of the most brilliant orators of his
times, and gave his race respect

Booker T. Washington commands
the respect of the thoughtful peo-
pie IN Europe and America be-
cause he is a man of genius who

and to appreciate his work.
These great and good men made
for themselves the place they oc-
cupied in the estimation of man.
kind. They created their own val
ne, made their place among the
elect of the world.
As it has been and is with the
individual so it is and will be with
a race or nation. 1t must make its
own place, tiX the estimate upon
its work, and mankind will accept
it. Puschskin, the Russian, and

Be Neighborly
And Not NegIectful of Agencies for Good Walter H.
StOwers' Advice in "Our Neighbour of
Detroit, Michigan.

1t is interesting, and instructive
as well, to note how closely Our
Neighbor is clinging to the text,
BE neighborly." But we, as a
peculiarly distinguished people in
regard to certain prejudices, should
stop to consider that asking one
to be neighborly entails a counter
duty of setting an example in the
direction indicated. In trying to
adjust this race situation many
mistakes have been made, quite a
number by ourselves and just as
many, if not more. by our obser-
vers. both friends and enemies.
We have now reached stage in
our relations with our fellows
where each recognizes that mis-
takes have been made, and at the
same time each is laying the
blame on the other. This is no
new trait, trying to get from under
responsibility for conditions we
have helped to make. When God
chided Adam for eating the apple.
he sad it is the fault of this wo-
man you gave me, and the woman
in turn said it is the fault of this
serpent you put in here. This
fact seems to be patent in it all, in
seeking for the neighborly feeling
we have sought faithfully but not
wisely.
The Negro has had but little
over half century of formula
tive period, either for character,
energy, history or discernment.
In the earlier days of this short
period the vast majority of our
men of force were committed to
the religious cult of either the
Methodist or the Baptist, and
these two, until lately obtained al
most to the exclusion of all others.
More than this, we out-Heroded
Herod in adopting the narrowness
and bigotry that once characteriz-
ed the rank and file of these de-
nominations. One who has lived
a half century can well remember
when members of these bodies
hurled the strongest philippics at
each other and at other sects in
general. Those times are history
now, almost ancient history. On
every side we hear the comment
of the wonders of development and
progress this age is producing.
Invention and discovery add one
marvel to another in quick success
ion. But no one of these is
|, fraught with as much good to hu-
manity, as this bringing together
in neighborly touch, the ends OF
the earth by steam and electricity.
The Colorado statesman., 1906-05-19

1t has created a broader spirit of
charity, love and rejoice than has
ever existed hitherto. We sympa-
thise and rejoice with men and ma
tions today which a decade ago
we did not know. Reforms of this
kind, to be permanent, must be a
growth, not an ebulition. It must
be expected for time that men
will make big claims to superiori-
,ty. based on wealth or race. but it
takes but one stroke of God or ma
ture to make the whole world kin.
or to teach it that "God so loved
the world" and not races in it. No
better illustration of this truth
need be mentioned than that fur
nished by the destruction of San
Francisco.
A majority of the Negroes of
this country have only touched
the mem of civilization. Much un-
selfish sacrifice must yet be given
us; so it behooves us to seek with
openness of spirit, from any source,
that which the fulness of gener-
Gus heart offers. 1t is an axiom
that man cannot lift himself by
his boot straps, neither can race.
1t might be ventured in this re-
gard, that no agency outside him
self has contributed more to make
the Negro a useful member of So
ciety and the community than the
Catholic church and its individual
members; nor has any agency
done more for the alienation of
his distresses.
1t must be admitted that they
have been sleeping during the last
quarter of century while the
great Negro harvest has been gar
nered into storehouses, but that
there is rejuvenated activity can
not be questioned, when such men
taken in connection with what
they represent, as Cardinal Glib
bons, and Bishop Ireland, are per-
sistently proclaiming the gospel of
good will and fellowship for their
brother in black. We have a
claim on the Catholic church that
dates almost from the time of
Christ. Among the early fathers
who contributed SO much in liter
ature and influence to infant chris
tianity were Clement, Tertullian
and Origen, men with as much
! African blood in their veins as
millions of American Negroes.
Two of the first heralds of free
dom for all men, black or white,
were Catholics. Lofty in ideals
and purposes, and irresistible
stood Bishop Henri Gregoire, OF
The Colorado statesman., 1906-05-19

France, and Daniel O'Connell, of
Ireland, pleading and fighting for
the slaves in the colonies of those
two great nations. What they
did, and how they did it must be
fully understood to appreciate the
influence their efforts have had on
succeeding generations. Lincoln
never gave utterance to more in
spired thoughts than these two
gems from a speech of O'Connell
before the House of Parliament in
advocating freedom for the slaves
in the West Indies, an event
which we now celebrate each first
of August: Whoever excepts a
single man in his claim for right;
whoever concents to the servitude
of single man, black or white, is
not sincere man. We must ex-
haust the patience of injustice and
force the hand of Providence"
After reading of the endeavors of
men like this, we should thank
God for men who will not keep
silent when wrong is enthroned in
the place of right, DE they of any
creed, race or politics.
Our great and good President
has said that any thing that ele-
Yates the Negro's character, i'm
proves his condition, or increases
his capacity is worthy of our en-
couragement and support. This
is as true of men as it is of agen-
cies, for men set on foot the agen-
cies. We not only need helpful
agencies, but we should avail our
selves of every organized factor
that tends to reduce the virulence
of prejudice and bigotry, those
twin evils of ignorance and intoler-
ance. Unrest and distrust should
be supplanted by confidence and
faith. And there is no organiza-
ton, civic or religious, in the
world better enabled, because of
its principles and its power, to aid
us along these lines than the Cath
olic church.
Were it needful to prove CON
clusion, many Catholic of other
lands might be mentioned who
like Cardinal Levigere have
given their lives to the Afri-
can cause. But since Our Neigh
Dor circulates very largely in De-
troit, it would be wise to consider
our neighbors at home, men who
believe in giving every man an
equal chance. Among those en-
titled to mention who were Catho-
lies during their lives, are the late
John Atkinson and Michael Bren-
nan, both of hallowed. memory.
And while it is not customary to
throw bouquets at the living, this
contribution would be lacking were
the names of Judge Alfred j. Muir
ply, Edward FL. Doyle and Rev.
Father Reilly, now of Adrian,
Mich, omitted from the role of
those to whom the race is much
indebted.
There are many premises, on
which the Negro can be congratu-
lated, none more so than in the
favorable comment his life, charac.
ter and persistent effort toward
that which is noblest and best, is
forcing from unwilling lips. The
following clipping is illustrative of
