SAYS ROOSEVELT is
ANOTHER KING SOLOMON.

President Roosevelt is another King
Solomon, according to the Rev. Horace
Porter, pastor of Watching Avenue
Congregational Church, Montclair. In
his sermon last night he said that the
President was the greatest peacemaker
In the world today. Ro~osevelt's policies
had hit many men, he said. but they
were only of two classes-those who
had broken the laws or those who were
the victims of the lawbreakers.
The victims, he said, should support
Roosevelt, as they would be better off
in the end, and they would be helping
the whole country. The Presidents
policies, he said, should prevail, be-
cause they were wise ones.

guard this principle. The mere fact
that prejudice excitement or indig-
nifty (righteous or unrightcous) ex-
ist is the more reason that we should
guard the court from such influen-
ces. Instead of adapting the court
to the circumstances we should
dapt the circumstances to the court.
Our correspondent sees the point
and admits that he was raised up
under such principles but he has
seized to this delusion as a solu-
ton of this phaze of the race
problem. Does he not know
that human prejudice and envy
are Unsuitable characteristics,
that the more we cater to such feel
ings the stronger they will grow?
Courts that are constitutionally held
and conducted will establish the
principles of justice and impartial
ity in the people and this is what
we sorely need. We would not
argue that justice could not be had
at special term of court but sac
rifice of principle is necessarily in
volued in appointing a special court
under such circumstances. In a
sense the white people are respon-
sible for the negroes presence here
and we do not hesitate to say that
most of his meanneSs is done in
imitation of examples set by white
men. 1t is mighty peculiar spark
of justice that flames up so suddenly
when negro commits a crime and
dies out SO readily when the order
is reversed.
Let us see to it that the courts
take their constitutional course then
the law will take care of itself.
