to the constitution, and held that
it would be no discredit to the COL
ored man. He said the question
was seriously asked whether the
colored man had the capabilities
to reach that plane contemplated
by the forefathers for experiments
with colored men in different parts
of the country he was fully con-
vinced that they did have those
capabilities.
Putting the degraded Southern
Negro at the side of the degraded
Pole, the degraded Slav, the de-
graded italian, he said he would
select the degraded Southern Ne
gro as the one possessing the most
capabilities of being transformed
into a good American citizen.
There are more possibilities among
the Negroes than among the de-
graded alien population he said.
The report of the Board of Mis-
sions for Freedmen alluded at some
length to the temporary closing of
the HARRISON college at Abbeville,
S. c., last year because of local
race antagonism engendered dur
ing a political campaign. The
pressure brought upon the Presi-
dent Of the school forced him to
resign.

POSSIBILITIES OF NEGROES

Columbus, Ohio, May 20.-That
mistake was made in 1865 in
giving the Negro unrestricted citi-
zenship was the intimation made
in address to day by a friend of
the Negro, DR.. Wilson, of Pitts
burg, in connection with the pres
entation of the Board of Missions
for Freedmen before the Presby-
terian General Assembly. The
sentiment was received with ap-
plause from the assembly.
II have had men on this Board
of Freedmen say to me that they
thought it would have been wise
to have fixed ar educational quail
fication or property qualification,
and let the colored men thus grow
up into the enjoyment of the full
rights of citizenship and that after
various experiment he made, he
said, giving full credit to the men
who had written the amendment
The Colorado statesman., 1907-06-01
JUDGE RACE BY MERIT.

How often do you hear the re-
mark or see an article that the Ne
gro is not progressing or not meet
ing my expectations than those
same people will point you to some
inferior colored man to prove their
assertion that is not right, not fair,
not justice. Ii you judge the
white race you select some one
who has made mark. Like Roose-
velt. Lincoln, Shakespeare, Bryant,
Milton, or Emerson; they never
point to white man in the gutter
or in the penitentiary. Why not
select the best of the Negro race
and compare them in your judg-
ment? Such men as Booker T.
Washington, Alex. Dumas, Rich
ard T. Greener, Dubois, Bruce
or Douglass. Then again, if
colored man commits larceny or
steals few dollars, or few chick
ems, our whole race must bear the
blame for the acts of that one.
While on the other hand the white
man robs trains, steals thousands
of dollars from banks, and dozens
of horses and you do not condemn
the white race. Is this fair? Is
this justice? A white clerk may
steal from every bank in Des
Moines, yet they put another in as
clerk again; while if one colored
man fails or steals you seem afraid
to try another. Then again, my
kind friends judge us from the
depths we have come rather than
the heights we have reached. We
only ask as any reasonable person
can ask-an equal chance in the
race OF life. Let merit and not
color prevail. Open the door of
your offices and workshops free to
him or her who is qualified.-Des
Moines Bystander.
The Colorado statesman., 1907-06-01
HELP ONE ANOTHER.

There is no Afro-American who
is so ignorant as to deny that In
union, there is strength" Hardly
will there be found one who does
not preach the doctrine, yet it is a
notorious fact that there are many
who preach what they do not prac-
tice. Under the guise of docking
out for himself upon the theory
that one has as much right to do a
thing as another, and lastly
through the great enemy of the
Afro American ENVY" we are con-
stantly doing those things our.
selves, which tend to destroy the
very idea we preach-Union. To
be more emphatic, if a colored per-
son commences business in the
town, and seemingly does well,
then an idea strikes another one of
us to. o.commence the same kind of
business, thus crippling the ori-
ginator of the, idea, and impede
either one from doing a business,
which would materially help the
race. 1t is not our purpose to
question ones right to do this, but
we ask, is it the right thing to do?
Why not open up a laundry, in
stead of a grocery, and not be your
brothers competitor. Why not
help him rather than retard him
by lifting yourself upon his ideas.
The idea of sel6shness cannot sue
ceed alone any branch of business.
When you find an Afro-American
trying to build up business, losing
time, health and money, to succeed
by it, and making an enterprise of
which the race may be proud, help
him by giving your Individual sup
port; in mean time, demands of
him good treatment and as good
prices as you can get at other plac-
es but, stick to him. There are
few men who are capable of activ-
ity operating successfully any more
than one line of business. Let us
learn to help one another. if we
wish to be helped.-True Reform
er,
The Colorado statesman., 1907-06-01

and away ahead of the Negro in
the means of protest through a
forceful, united and aggressive
union. Its leaders are respected
and possesses the confidence of the
rank and file of the race as we'll as
its moral and financial encourage
ment and support in all efforts for
the general veal.
The Constitution of the United
States and the Amendments there
to are explicit; defining in unmis-
taxable terms the rights and du-
ties Of citizenship and leaving
nothing to be guessed at. nothing
to be taken for granted.
The leaders of the Hebrew peo-
pie well understand this and have
the intelligence, the courage and
the pride of Face which impels
them to see to it that the privileges
of their people are not unwarrant-
ably abridged.
+ Relatively, the status of the Ne
gro before the constitution is the
same. To be sure there are points
of difference as to his civic racial
history but the Constitution and
Federal enactments are emphatic
In the assertion of his manhood
rights.
How then does it appear that he
is SO poor a thing that he is shorn
at will of the most ordinary privi-
leges that should run with his citi-
zenship.
A number of reasons may be ad-
vanced for this condition: He
has been SO long quiescent under
wrongs and outrages, that his op-
pressors have grown to feel it is
the proper way to treat him. His
trade is secure because he has no
commercial businesses and the
golden stream which goes to pur-
chase his comforts and necessities
must therefore continue to flow in
the same channel, so that however
badly he may be treated, his pat
ronage cannot be diverted. He
has no powerful advocates to
champion his cause as in former
times and must depend upon his
own prowess to wrest from an in
creasingly adverse sentiment, the
very least modicum Of considera-
ton.
The Grants, Summers and Lo-
gans advocating the fullest equal.
ity and liberty of action for all
classes of citizens in the republic
have given place to a long line of
political acrobats who, for party
advantage, or to appease hos
tile sentiment, may vault with the
most perfect ease over every bar
The Colorado statesman., 1907-06-01
Special to Colorado Statesman:

Special to Colorado Statesman:
A few weeks ago in these col
umns, l called attention to the diff
ference between the Jew and the
Negro, as stated by member of
the former race. This gentleman
said to me that "When the Jew
found out that he was not wanted
in any place, he didn't go there
any more but that the Negro was
continually pushing himself where
he was not wanted"
Recent events would seem to in
.dicate, however that there is a
much greater and far more distinc-
tive difference, the Jew goes de-
cided step further and though he
may not seek to enter the forbid
den place again, he does insist on
being shown by what right of law
or ethics he and his are barred.
These people through an organi-
zation known as the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations,
with branch membership in all
important cities, is prepared to
make bitter and aggressive war
fare in the courts of the country
for the safe guarding of their con-
stitutional rights.
Mr.. Simon Wolf, the leading
Hebrew citizen of Washington and
a lawyer Of national reputation, is
chairman of the board of directors
and is ever watchful of the best
interests and civic rights of his fell
low citizens of that race.
Recently there was brought to
the attention of the Union the ac-
tion of leading hotel at Atlantic
City in closing its doors to some
members of the family of Senator
Isidor Rayner.
Mr. Wolf prepared and sent let
ters TO all branches of the Union
calling for concerted action where
ever Determinations against Jews
are practiced and asking prompt
reports of whatever action might
be taken.
One of the cases in evidence
had its inception through the adj
vertisements of a hotel at Lake
Sunapee, N. H., which read:-
"Hebrew patronage not solicited"
and Hebrews will not be received
as Guest"
Mr.. Volts circular letter closed
with these significant words This
continuance advertisement is be-
coming a nuisance and is educat-
ing people in the wrong direction
and we must not permit it, no
matter how contemplate the action
of the summer hotel people is."
SO it is that the Jews are far
