property of the Federal Government.
State laws regulating the conduct or
character of the trains would fail,
ipso faCto because a State cannot
regulate, control or limit the use Of
Federal property. What is to prevent
Congress from providing separate
coaches for the two races?' the Cover
nor asks. Nothing; absolutely moth
ing except Congress it: elf tine lack
Of will upon the part Of at least two
thirds of Cong? ess, in each House, to
do it,
Following this, Williams confirms
the very argument your correspondent
made last year when the hystericai
gentlemen from New England made a
grand-Stand play against the Foraker
amendment to the rate bill, on the
ground that it legaHZed Jim Crow
cars in the heretofore unrestricted
North. The M;sGissippian takes the
view we did that there is nothing now,
except the lack of public sentiment TO
prevent separate coaches on the roads
in Ohio Illinois, or Massachusetts,
and that the Foraker equal accOm0-
ds,tiOns" amendment had nothing to
do with the case, and would have no
weight except to compel the railroads
10 give cars Of equal comfort and con-
venience 70" Negroes in States where
the separate coach law was in force
as were given other races, for the
same money. But let us return to Will
ljams, and hear him for his cause:
"Every State in the North could
I have separate coaches now Tor whites
and blacks, if the people Of those
States wanted them. They DO not
have the "Jim Crow" car because
they DO not want it, and the men re-
| necting the views Of the people III
| Congress would not enact laws ia pro

territories the separate coach law
The South, then is against the Gov
eminent ownership of railroads, not
because of anything inherently I'M
sound in the idea, but because it would
interfere with one of their sacred fri-
jim crow car. We are
almost impelled to paraphrase the
vulgar exclamation of the ex-tin-
guished Senator from South Carolina,
in expressing our opinion of the pea
nut politicians, who attempt to rep
resent sovereign people in Congress,
and say, ITO hades with such states
manship!" Some of these fine days
the South, may find the Negro leaders
all arrayed in favor of Government
ownership, largely because the Will
liamseS, Morgans, ct al are against
1t They love the plan for the enc
mics it has MADE. Should the blacks
support Government ownership to
get lid Of the jim crow car, it will be
funny to see Williams Jennings Bryan
