CULTURE IS MORE THAN

The presentation OF a really meritor-
ious amateur theatrical production
this week was met with jeers, laughter
and Kisses from what was supposed to
be an Intelligent and cultured audi.

pated In the disturbance, but such a

RIGHT TO PE1lTNoN NEVER Be.
FORE DENIED.

Governor Buchtel has signed the
Anfenger bill which regulates the use
of secret and benevolent society en-
blems. The protest of the various
lodges and societies that this bill was
aimed at colored organizations and
was piece of class legislation that
would be used to cripple colored fra.
ternities was ignored by the governor
Since 1t Is possible for men of differ.
ent opinions both to be honest in their
intentions, We can wait the outcome
OF the bill before passing an opinion
on the governors acceptance OF this
kind Of legislation. But there is one
circumstance attendant upon the con.
sideration of the measure that We
must enter protest concerning. That
is the failure OF the states executive
to make opportunity for the colored
committee to set forth their objections
to the bill. However useless 1t might
have been, however firmly he may
have believed that he was right in en-
dorsing the measure, he still is the
governor Of the weakest citizen and
from the head of the nation down to
the smallest official it is usual to
grant audiences on all matters Of pub.
lie interest that the least as well as
the greatest may feel that they have
had fair chance. Should this law
be used as colored people fear that
1t will be, the governor has practically
neglected the only means he had for
convincing them OF his good inten.
tions.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1907-04-19

What makes II more shameful is
that the some OF us who have kept
silent in theatres during worse pro.
ductions. should have less manners
simply because colored people we're
the performers and the audience. 1t
is generally said Of us that we esteem
more highly whatever is the product
of the brain Of the white man than of
our own and the audience Tuesday
night did its best TO prove this.
Apart from any questions OF the
merit Of the entertainments given for
the public. 1t is clearly the character
istic OF well bred people to conduct
themselves with propriety at all times.
Coon Shouts fit some peoples char
acter and they are too ignorant to
understand high class efforts. But
granting that, they are under the same
obligation to respect colored people
who do understand better things as
they are to respect white audiences.
II is the duty OF our race to make our
aristocracy one OF brains and not of
clothes. Sap head dudes with the
latest styles. empty pockets and
wooden heads are to be pitied not
courted. Fashionable girls who de.
spise honest endeavor and suffer their
parents to support hem in idleness,
are equally unfortunate. Outbrsts
such as we now crticise could not
happen II the essentials OF culture and
decency we're in use. and not merely
the incidents.
We need to take thought. Getting
to gatherings at the last hour, dis.
turbing church services with unnec.
essary talk. deporting ourselves on the
streets boisterously are not high
crimes, but show an absence OF regard
for those who do respect the proprie-
ties. And since all Negroes are
classed together In adverse criticism,
1t is detrimental to US all that the few
are boorish.
