The Negro.

Of late years you seldom can
pick up a paper but what it con-
tains something concerning the
negro problem. I recall an article
that appeared in a recent issue OF
The MIRROR under the heading,
''The Problems of the Southerner.' y
With due respect to the writer OF
said article [ wish to differ with
him on several statements he
made. I claim that the writer did
not do the coIored man justice
He speaks of him as being un.
grateful and what he (the negro
would do if treated with respect
As to the colored man being shift
less and inferior may be true in
many instances, but it is not true
as whole.
According to the report of the
Board of Missions for the Freed
men the negro population is esti-
mated as being more than>ten mil
lion, and nearly four million OF
them are engaged in profitable
occupations. Many of them are
engaged in farming and own their
farms. You would not think them
shiftless by glancing at the statis-
tics belonging to the various trades,
Some persons imagine they are
helping the negro by giving him
cast-of clothing, sack of -four,
or slab of bacon. Whereas, they
are only encouraging him to be
lazy and shiftless. Those who are
prejudiced should leave the negro
problem to such men as Booker
Washington, ct. al, and in due time
there will be no hatred between
the two races. There can never
be such a thing as absolute equality.
The negro does not expect it, nor
does he want 1t. What he does
want, however, is justice-a square
deal.

of arrests. The patrolmen and
detectives are, in conseq uence, able
to devote their undivided attention
to real criminals. The snryeil-

have left the city and it is almost
impossible for any Of them to

words, the Cleveland police seem

last sentence, and they are happy
Outside attractions dazzle not their
eyes or lure their hearts-ontside
threats have no terrors, and loved
and loving they go on to eternity
in happiness. Some of these days
you will see a girl or women you
will think you love. Be very care
full. Ask yourself what you loye
her for. The body wrinkles. The
cash account fades away. The
beautiful dresses are soon out
grown. Be sure she has a loving,
patient, gentle, progressive spirit.
That is worth loving. No matter
if she has hot a penny to her
name, or enough wardrobe to in
sure. No matter whether she is a
favorite of others or not. Be in
no hurry to decide, but when you
have decided and are married, re-
member that you two are one, and
that it is your place and duty, as
the husband-the house man-to
help in all ways you can to make
life and home pleasant and to ever
keep it filed with your sober,
earnest, sympathetic presence.
If you cannot make your wife
and your home happy, go else
where and remain away. Man has
no right to be ashadow or chorus.

As to Jack London.

Now, when you try to preach
thru the medium of story, one of
two things is pretty certain to hap
pen. Either the story will swallow
the sermon bodily, or the sermon
will, in part at least, usnrp the
story. 1t is very seldom that there
is room for both within the one
pair of covers. With literary
artist like Hawthorne at the pencil,
the task may indeed be managed.
But with any less skillful work.
man, disaster is sure.
Which brings us to the cause of
these remarks-a new book by
Jack London. When Jack Lon
don came out of the North some
years ago, with his bundle of
stories wrapped in bearskin, we
sat up and applauded. Here was
a man who dared to draw the
naked, elemental passions of men,
the passions that have come down
from the Oldest days, and that all
our civilization has but thinly
yelled. Here were characters that
lived. Here was a rush of incident
and an intensity of struggle vastly
interesting after long diet Of that
realism in which "the modest SEWN
machine marries the respectable
grocery store, an they spend tn
rest of til book talkin' about who
shall wind the clock" We hoped
great things Of Jack; and he did
not wholly disappoint us.
And now-he has forgotten the
lore of primitive passion that made
him worth reading, and has gone
to preaching socialism. His latest
book is socialist tract. It is a.
bad tract, too; not because of it's.
socialism, but because the author
lost sight of his story. He &C.
quired such an luminosity against
this imaginary ''iron heel'' that
he quite neglected to give any &C.
ceptable explanation for it's exist
ance. And you must admit that
an organization which masters the
world in a few short years and
rules it for seven centuries is worth
a little bit of an explanation. But
instead, the hero breaches; preaches
the ordinary, socialistic sermons
that you can hear anywhere at any
time, containing all the careful
tabulations of things that are not
SO which characterize those queer
productions. And the reader, who
picked up the story for the story,
and who remembers what Jack
London could do with a story, feels
resentful.
But it is what we must expect
until the time comes when we as q
people cease to take everything SO
seriously. Jack London is no
greater sinner against the rules of
art than thousands of others. He
had higher head of steam on, and
so went farther from the track;
that is all. The blame lies with
those old world governmental
machines which prosecuted our
ancestors into placing an undo
on their opinions

them, there is no home--nO con-
staucy of love-no firm anchor to
the heart on which their ship can
| drag for an hour till the storm is
kissed or soothed away.
We cannot, every one, be all in
all to each other. There is but
one God for us, my boy. There
is never but one heart which seems
like heaven. There are never but
one pair of arms that can CON-
pletely shield the sensitive heart
from sorrow-there is never but
one voice whose low melodies can
epchant the spirit and rescue the
weary soul from the gloomy captor
in whose keeping it is for the time.
And, my boy, when that hope fails
when the last heart harbor the
storm-tossed voyager makes for is
closed against him, or. SO crowded
with others that there is no room
for him, the darkness of midnight
is noon-the bowling Of the bur-
ricane are zephyrszthe angry
flashes of Gods lightning but
love-glances-the goadings of sor--
rowing despair the white arms of
love by comparison.
We all blame people too much.
But few of us pity. Too many
censure where they should keep
silent if they cannot sympathize.
It is not for us to censure-God is
the only one who has the right to
do that. It is for US, my boy, to
love and be true in heart. TO
dispel all the gloom we can. In
the spring time see how carefully
the ground is prepared for the
seed or plant; and be it fruit or
flower, every moments care and
attention given repays the kind
hand and loving eye with its
ohoioost riohoe IN proportion to the
love, care, and labor bestowed upon
lit.
We cannot love too much if we
love we'll. Heaven is love, and
surely we cannot take too earnest
lessons in the principles thereof.
And, my boy, when you see man
away from his home-seeking
elsewhere, not for pleasure, but for
that in which sorrow can be
drowned, deal not with him in
thought too harshly. God knows
he suffers enough, else the friends
would be his earthly paradise and
the vexations of the day which by
night are harvested in a pile of
trouble in his heart would be
chased away by the love he needs
to strengthen him for the morrow's
toll. No man who loves his wife
will ever be absent from home one
moment longer than business keeps
him away. When a man spends
his time in saloons, you may be
certain that his love for his wife
is all gone, and that he cares no
more for his family. Men will not
be long absent from those they
love. It is not in nature. II they
are absent from choice, how DESC
late must be their hearts-how
tear-calling their thoughts!
Men, as rule, care too little for
their wives. Wives care too little
for their husbands. The heart
that was once won is not kept.
The pleasures of the chase have
drowned out the enjoyment of the
possessi on-the market once made

Well, my boy, there are several
reasons. Many frequent such
places, but scarcely two from the
same motive. The young men go
there because they seek the fun
that straight-Iaced crauks deny to
young people at home. Married
ones go to drown trouble, and
drown themselves in beer. The
old ones because they have grown
into the habit and cannot remain
away. It is very hard work to
Jump out of habit, once it's cream
rises to cover you.
There are times, my boy, when
the heart is very sad-when every
leaf of it's inner book is bitterness.
There are men who have wives
who have dwelling houses-yet
who have no homes. None to care
for them except for what they can
get out of them. Men are not
divine. Humanity is the sub
stance from which sorrows picture
is taken. Weary with the labor OF
today-tired of the perpetual round
of toll and never-ending drudgery,
many a time the heart of a brave
man goes down under the waves of
trouble, and there is hardly glim-
mer of light in his horizon OF days
or years. He goes home to meet
his wife. He opens the gate and
steps within the little enclosure,
or climbs the stairs to the tene-
ment rooms which should contain
his hearts treasure and the joy of
his life. He ascends the steps.
He turns the knob or lifts the

But few of us, Walter, are really

may not know tit is no business
of the worlds what it is, but it is
there. Men see the smiles their

Common Sense in
Police Methods.

i
The chief of police in Cleveland,
Ohio, who promulgated golden
rule order few months ago which
has in it an idea that is worthy Of
careful consideration, explained at
the Detroit convention Of the In
ternational Association of Chiefs
of Police what has been accom-
plished during a few months by
this new method of dealing with
unfortunates and minor offenders.
He is working on the theory that
| the usual police tactics drive the
young and weak to the haunts and
association Of habitual criminals;
that the policeman in most cities
imagines it is his duty to punish
criminals and not to prevent crime.
Chief Koehler many years ago
became satisfied that little, or even
worse than nothing, is accom-.
plished by the arrest of those
charged with minor offenses. The
arrests brought disgrace, humilia-
ton and suffering On innocent per-
sons in no way responsible for the
acts of a thoughtless, careless, mis-
chievous, or even a malicious first
offender. There were parents and
children at the stations every day
crying for the release of offenders
who had gotten into trouble be-
cause of drink or some trivial
quarrel. The innocent relatives
often were dependent upon the
prisoner for their maintenance, and
punishment inflicted upon him fell
upon them. If he were fined they
had to pay for it in a curtailment
of the necessities of life. =
A great majority of the minor
offenders were released after a
hearing in court. Nothing had
been accomplished BY the arrest
except the degradation of a man
who had been self-respecting.
The stigma of the prison cell re-
NAMED in his mind and the minds
of his relatives and friends. His
experience with the police, instead
of being benefit to him, had
tendency to harden him in evil
ways. It certainly had no bene,
fetal effect. The problem of how
to avoid these needless arrests was
studied carefully by Chief Koehler.
He decided that the policeman
should be, in measure, Judge, in
order to produce the best results.
The patrolman is the first on the
scene and gets the evidence at
first hand and before there has
been any opportunity to fix up the
stories of witnesses. He knows
the neighborhood and the reputa-
tion of those in it. He should be
better able than the court to pass
upon the merits of each case and
to determine whether the accused
is deserving of punishment.
AS all policemen are not judici.
ally inclined nor have all the same
ability to size up character, Chief
Koehler determined to promulgate
rules for their guidance. The
police of Cleveland were instructed
to take every juvenile offender to
his home or to summon his parents
and turn the child over to them,
with warning, for parental cor
rection. No children are i'm
prisoned. ALI intoxicated persons
are taken to their homes or are
sent to their homes unless it seems
necessary for the protection of
their lives or the property of others
that they be imprisoned until they
get sober.
