The Presidents Grit.
Thomasville Charity and Children.

Whatever the faults and failines of
Mr.. Roosevelt, he has the courage OF
his convictions and cannot be driven
from his purpose by wild and sense.
less clamor.' His refusal to recede
from tile position he took in discharg-
ing the negro troops at Brownsville.
Texas, was creditable to him and n
great blessing to the country. The
negroes In all sections of the country
TOOK the side of the discharged and
disgraced soldiers and demanded
that they be reinstated. At Salisbury,
IN North Carolina, the cclored Bap-
USE State Convention passed strong
resolutions i'm favor of the worthless
troops and against the President;
ana many other places meetings were
held and intemperate and foolish
speeches were made demanding that
the President eat his words and stul-
tlfv himself before the country. Con-
slderlng the fact in some of the States
I'll" negroes hold the balance of power,
weaker man than Mr.. Roosevelt
would have yielded and sacrificed
himself for the good of the party
but he played the man and would not
bulge an inch. The consequences Of
this course by the President are far
reaching and important. Yielding
to the frantic clamor of the negroes
would have meant the growing inso-
lence and self-importance OF disrep-
utable negroes and the strengthen
ing of race prejudice, already SO in
tense. Standing to his position means
that the negOres must suffer for
wrongdOing as we'll as the whites, and
that the government will not shield
IL criminal because he happens to be
black. The negroes needed this lesson
very much. They must be held in
with bit and bride. Give them an
inch and they will take IN ell every
time. We owe Mr.. Roosevelt our
thanks that he put his solemn duty
above party eXpediency.

The Same Law for All.
Wilmington Messenger.

Justice is blind. She knows no
color. What punishment she metes
out to the black man she should
keep in store for the white man when
he is convicted of the same Offense.
Were we to make the statement that
this is not the case in some sections
of this country we would, no doubt,
receive many communications max
ing denial Of our statement and
challenging us to proof. We do not
make the assertion, however, but
simply state that there should be
equal justice to all and the same
punishment dealt to all criminals.
If an exception should be made it
ought to be in favor OF the ignorant
and uneducated, no matter what his
color, as against the educated and
properly raised man. OF two men
who commit the same crime the one
who by raising and education, should
have held better position in society
ought to be punished more severely
than the poor ignorant and debased
creature who had never had an op-
portunity for improving his natural
faculties. We thoroughly agree with
the sentiments expressed by the
Charlotte Chronicle along this line in
the following EDITORIAL:
A white man, tried and convicted in
the courts of Louisiana, for brutal as
ault upon a crippled and feeble white girl.
is soon to be hanged, this in spite OF the
fact that the crime was not tfully proved
But" says the New Orleans Picayune
this fiend in human form had declared
beforehand that he would outrage the
poor girl, and afterwards boasted Of
his crime, apparently relying on the fact
that he vas a white man and the victim
was poor and friendless. The Picayune,
remarking that we hang negroes for
this crime under the law, and the same
law applies to whites. says that ''if this
law is good for anything, the courts and
the governor will see to it that this
miscreant pays it's full penalty. If he
should be allowed any escape from the
fate which he so we'll merits, and to
which a white jury has condemned him,
then we ought to stop lynching negroes
for the same crime" We are not likely
to hear any objection to this sentiment.
Evidently this Louisiana criminal is a
fit subject for the gallows.

Welfare Of Negroes.
Southern Farm Magazine.


Groups of negro divines or other
lenders of their race who have,
under the spur OF recent tragic sug-
gestions, been petitioning various
authorities orappealing to the public
for action to restrain and lessen agi-
tation OF feeling between whites and
blacks, will find the path OF wisdom
and safety for negroes in letter writ
ten by Governor W. d. Jelks, of Ala
bama, to a group calling themselves
"the representative and law-abiding
negroes" of Mobile. He went straight
to the point. He wrote:
1T is time for plain speaking.
Your leading people must know that
the insistent idleness of its lazy MEM
bers and the crimes which are sure to
follow such idleness is leading to a
feeling that a few soldiers and a few
guns will not control. l say to you,
and through you to your people, that
Il radical change in two respects is
imperative. More work, more days
of work for each man and each wo-
man who have no other honest means
for livelihood. And, again, the
prompt giving up tu the officers of
the law those who violate the Grim
inal statutes. Ii these things are not
done the powers of the econstabulary,
the pOliece and the State Guards will
not protect the races from a conflict
which shall be deplorable am writ
ing you very candidly. Outlaw the
loafer and the thief and be particu-
larly prompt in helping to hunt down
the rapists, Ostracise them in your
societies and consign them to eter-
nal damnation from your pulpits.
This is the best and cheapest way.
Should the white people finally lose
control OF themselves, anarchy is
upon u.s.
Governor Jelks, in his administra-
tion during the past four years, has
shown himself vigorous and sue
cessful maintaiuer of the and a real
friend of negroes in many ways. His
friendship has been evidenced no
more clearly than in his communica-
ton to the Mobile negroes. The cause
of violence against negroes has never
been more distinctly set forth. The
remedy has never been more emphat-
ically suggested. 1t lies with the
negroes alone. When negroes cease
to aid and abet criminals because
they are negroes, whites will cease to
hold the negro race responsible for
negro crime
