Thoughtful, Fair-Minded Negroes
Begin to Approve of Taft

when nomi lated will, feel certain,
receive our votes"
At Chica o large party Of leading
colored citi ems called upon Secretary
Taft in his apartments at the Audi
forum An ex and were accorded a
welcome b, him. Though he was al
most const lntly busy with banquets,
and conferences there, he
told them lie was glad to give them
some of his time. He was frank with
them.
The tru h is" he told them, the
race quest on has occupied me ever
since | wa; little boy My father
felt very d seply on the subject and
was brougl up with views which in
the South ' 'ould be considered radical.
When W. mt to the Philippines SINH
lar questio is arose. The question of
the proper settlement of race differ
ences and rejudices is one that have
had a greai deal of interest in. have
always sy npathized with the race
which has been more unfortunate in
its controy arsy with that race which
has assum ID TO be superior, and in
many case! assumed position entire
ly unjustii able in Christian brother
hood.
The pr gress that the colored race
is making FINISHES ground for encour-
agement t at | think We will have a
right to eel. As they demonstrate
their valu, to themselves and to the
whole com nunity they earn a position
which is a, corded to them not because
of sympatt with them. II is not sym.
patty but ] stice that you want. When
you compe respect and appreciation
of your va lie as citizens, then you will
get justice The only course you can
take to bri lg about proper respect be-
tween the races is to make 1t TO the
interests c the white race to accord
to the cole red race that position it is
entitled to have"
Rev. A. !. Cary of Chicago, one of
the party Q colored men, informed Mr..
Taft that the impression had gone
abroad tina he was in sympathy with
the disfra chisement of the colored
people In he South.
Not in the slightest responded
Secretary Taft. My position is this.
that the ,uthern men are obliged to
keep with the constitution, and If
they choos TO do so, under the Fed
eral consu .ution they have the right
to impose an educational or property
qualificatio Therefore, neither the
colored no white race in the North
has RICH to complain. provided the
law which is imposed shall be equally
enforced yainst both races. That is
my positio D."
We dor object to that" said Mr.
Cary, land we are ready to support any
man for 4 e Presidency who will en-
deavor to see that this is done. or
course, il not done"
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1908-04-24

East, that Secretary Taft is opposed
to the interests of the colored people
of the country and that the colored
people as a whole are opposed to him
has been largely dispelled as a result
of his trip, during the first two weeks
in April, through the Middle West,
where he was acclaimed as our next
President"
On that trip he met and conferred
with many of the leading colored citi-
zens Of the section of the country
through which he travelled. They were
not loath TO ask him questions con-
corning his attitude toward them and
he was quick 10 respond in way that
appeared to be entirely satisfactory to
them. He assured them that he was
not in favor OF their Acknowledgement
in the South. that he had been inter-
ested in their problems from their
youth and that he sympathized with
the highest ideals of their race.
At Louisville several hundred of
them Joined in the welcome extended
TO him by thousands OF citizens of that
city April 10. They filled the galleries
at the theater In which he delivered
an address. They applauded him again
and again when he argued that the
grandfather" clause in the franchise
law of the Southern states were un-
constitutional and that such laws, If
enforced at all, should be enforced as
strictly against the whites as against
the blacks. He made no reference TO
the race question in his addresses in
the North, where that question is less
vital, but to the representative South
ern audience at Louisville he dilated
at length upon the wonderful progress
In the requirement OF education and
property by the great mass of colored
people in the United States since the
Civil War. Not the least of the ova.
ton given him at the conclusion of his
speech was by the thousand or more
colored voters who were present.
Why should we be opposed to the
nomination and election of Mr.. Taft %
said one OF the more prominent of the
one who listens to him could believe
that he would be opposed to one class
of citizens In this country as against
another. We believe that all citizens
should be treated alike under the law.
whether they are rich or poor. white
or black. Shall We forget that all that
has been done for us during the past
forty-ave years was made possible by
the Republican party? Would any col.
ored man be so ungrateful as to bolt
Mr., Taft, who will undoubtedly be
nominated at Chicago, and vote for
the candidate of party that openly
declares II is white mans party"
and would see that We get nothing If
It were placed in power7 Secretary
Taft is fair man and will see that
the colored man gets what he deserves.

FOR OFFICE

There is n feeling growing
throughout the Seventh judicial
district among many Democrats
and among the independent vot-
ers that George Hetherington, of
GunnisOn, for a number of years
county Judge of Gunnison coun-
ty, would make as strong II
nominee as the Democratic
party could nominate for district

CALLS IN
. WARRANTS

Today Leon J. Chapman,
treasurer of the city of Grand
Junction, issues through The
Daily Sentinel n call for every
outstanding warrant drawn on
the Water Fund of Grand juno
ton. Each and every one of
these warrants, aggregating
something like $4,000 in their
total value, will be paid on pre-
sentation.
With these warrants paid the city
of Grand junction will be entirely
free from warranted Indebtedness for
the first time in many years.
Treasurer Chapman also announc-
.es that with all these warrants paid
there will be enough funds in the
water fund from month to month to
pay every warrant drawn on that
fund in cash Immediately on its pre-
sentation to the treasurer.
The wiping out of the warranted
Indebtedness, the stopping of the
payment of interest on a great num-
ber of warrants and their ability to
pay each water fund warrant as it is
issued, reflects great credit on the
present city administration.

While Judge Hetherington has not
consented to make the race and has
not made the least canvass for the
nomination it is known that scores
of his friends and influential citizens
of nearly every county in the dis
trict are urging him to come out for
the nomination and it is hoped that
he will do so.
Judge Hetherington has made a
splendid record as judge of Gunnison
county. He is an able lawyer and a
man who has at all times conscien-
tiously discharged his official duties.
He is well known throughout the dis

BIG BASEBALL FIGHT
ON THE PACIFIC COAST

A rare baseball fight is on, on the
Pacific Coast. Two years ago, the
Pacific Coast League dropped one or
two small towns from the list OF
places on the ball map. Last season,
some of the burgs not in the Coast
League, and some which were, got to-
gether and organized an outlaw ag-
gregation, the California State
League, comprising San Francisco
Oakland. Alameda, San Jose, Santa
Cruz, Sacramento, and Fresno.
This bunch had on its rolls OF
players some of the best men in the
game-"Spider" Baum, Cliff Blank.
enship, Brick" Deveraux, Roscoe
Miller, "Gotch" Kennedy. and 9TH
ers,-and proceeded to play much
better ball than the Coast League
could put out. The result Is: the
Coast League has had no crowds, and
the outlaws have been coming mon.
ey.
And now the Coast League Is talk.
ing about extending its territory
again. Doubtless what the outlaws
want is recognition. Can they force
/ 1t?

MAUI BASEBALL

WAILUKU, Maui, July 31.-There
will be a hot game at kahului this
Saturday afternoon between the Ka-
huluis and picked team from Wal
luku. The boys have been putting
up such excellent games that the pub
lie will travel miles to see them work.
At Wells Park, Waikiki, Sunday aft
ernoon the following teams will cross
bats: Waikapu VS.. Healani and Ka-
hului VS.. Stars. The Healanis put
up such fine game last Sunday with
Ned Kruger in the box that the pub
lie expect to see n holly contested
game this time, and whichever wins
will have to go some for 1t, and per-
haps another thinning game may
be had.
After the game last Sunday be-
tween the Healanis and Kahuluis,
Captain Keanu Of the Healanis filed
IA protest on the ground that one of
the Kahului batsman stepped out of
the box to bat n fair ball. The
judges, Messrs. Hattie, Perreira, and
DR.. Boote, disallowed the protest be-
cause it was raised after the game
was over and not when the act was
committed.
Jesse Makainai, former legisla-
tor, Is in Waikiki this week He
has been around Pauwela, looking
over and studying pineapple lands.
He owns several pieces of land in the
pineapple belt which he is thinking
of either leasing or cultiyatlng. The
stories that he hears from the farm
!ers themselves make him have faith
in the great future of the pineapple
industry, and yields of three or FIVE
hundred dollars an acre for fairly
good land planted in pines have al
ready set him a-thinking as to the
possibilities for Hawaiian small far
mers If they only will work in earn

the 18th the finals in both polo and
tennis will be played.
Tennis has been attracting inter-
est on Maui for months. and polo Is
also of some interest. owing to the
fact that Maui captured the honors
last year, and is generally supposed
to have the best team in the Islands.
This team is composed of Sam Bald

There is no doubt that the Clarans

POLO GAME ON TODAY

Polo is on this afternoon at Mo-
analua, the finest field in many re-
spects in the world. The locals are
getting into form for their trip to
Maui. Their Improvement during
the time they were working for the
recent matches with Kauai was very
marked, and 1t is entirely probable
that Oahu is to put the best team In
the field this year--the best team
which has ever been put out from
this Island.
AS the best of the locals are pitted
against each other, the match at
Moanalua ought to prove of the
greatest interest.
