sJIMCROW'L LAWS

PASTORS
Baptist Conference Dis
cuSSes This Subject and
Presidents Charges.

Jim Crowism,' lynch-Iaw and Presi-
dent Roosevelt's charge that negroes
shelter the criminals of their race were
the subjects that were discussed today
before the New Jersey Baptist Negro
Ministers Conference, which held its
monthly meeting in the Bethany Bap-
fist Church in Bank street.
The first subject was talked of in
the arrangements that the conference
made to have a mass-meeting of
negroes in this city on the last Mon
day in this month to protest against
the decision of Commissioner Lane, Of
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
who has decided on behalf of the COM
mission that the Jim Crow" car laws
of the South are constitutional and
will not be interfered with SO long as
the railroads afford equally as good
accommodations to negro passengers
as to whites.
The othter two subjects, that of
lynching and of President Roosevelt's
charges against the negroes of shield
ing their criminal elements, wer dis
cussed by the Rev. j.. G. Love. of Mont
clair. who directed the conferences at
tention to lynching of a negro in Mary

President Roosevelt's advice to help
run down the the criminals of the race,
was responsible for the brutal beating
and lynching of the negro.
president Roosevelt" he said. finds
fault with the negroes and charges
them with shielding their criminals,
because none Of them would squeal in
the Brownsville affair. But when neg
roes turn over their criminals to the
authorities they do not urn them over
to the law but the mob.
1T is not the negroes but the whites
that shield their criminals, because the
whites will not punish a single man
that took part in this brutal crime,
which has been committed almost at
our door,"
The conference, which is composed of
the pastors of the Baptist churches OF
Newark, the Oranges and nearby towns
and cities, was presided owe by the
Rev. Maurice w. Vaughan, of Roselle,
and the secretary was the Rev. e. V.
Hare, of Newark.

There is much practically in the letters
which Carlyle wrote concerning the foundation
Of the London Library-letters which have just
been published for the first time. He shows
himself specially opposed 10 the suggestion that
in getting Il librarian they should feel their
way" get a subordinate man" and later ap-
point one of superior quality. 1T isl he says,
like sending out a military expedition for con-
quest in foreign countries under a sergeant,
with strict provisO that when he has made con-
quest we will send general! Alas, too clearly
there will never be any general needed" AS for
Caryle's ideas of just what i librarian should
be, here they are:
Nv notion of the librarians function does not
imply that he shall be king over us; nay. that he
shall ever quit the address and manner of a
servant to the library; but he viii be wise

what necessarily endeavOring. rough-hewng all
III ues for US: and under the guise of a wise
servant. ruling actually while he serves. Like
= uo5lemans steward that is in some sort the
definition Of him.
These reflections remind us Of the success
with which the officials in so many American
libraries at least approximate to Carlyles con-
ccption of their place in the economy of the
universe. Public servants in this country are
not accustomed to put it mildly. to err on the
side of consideration for the public, but we be
icye that most workers who have occasion TO
Use our libraries will admit that they generally
can count upon courteous assistance at the
hanls of the librarians with whom they have TO

Mr.. Moore's book on COrreggio is welcome for
two reasons. 1t forms a good introduction to
the subject, and it illustrates healthful reac-
ton against the arrogance and aridity of that
school OF so-caIled scientific art criticism
which has been carrying on, in its own peculiar
way the tradition of Morelli. Indeed. we are
not sure but that we ought to put MIR. MOore's

from information obtained from re-
liable sources and managers of these
mines, that all communities may de-
pend upon getting their pro rata share
of coal, the same as last year, less
the 20 per cent of output.
Advance In Price.
The price of coal has been ad-
vanced in one of the mines lately on
lump coal so cents ton which has
been the first advance that has taken
place in the price of coal In the last
two years. Whether or not the other
mines will follow this advance we
are not prepared 70 say.
It may also be said that coal is the
only commodity that has not felt the
effect of good times as to price until
this advance, nor have the wages Of
the coal miner been advanced on ac-
count of the better times that we
have had in the last few years, until
now, when the most OF the mines
have been unionized, eight hour shifts
established and new scale of pay
put in force. What this new scale of
pay is, in comparison with the old.
We are not prepared to say, aswe
have had no opportunity to compare
the same, as 1t had not been fully
agreed upon and put in force while
we were visiting these mines.
