i . place Of barbarous hordes whose
god b drosa The supple. subtle, pois-
ed, mysterioas man of the east feels no
kiDship with the new, rushing. crude,
forcefal man Of the west. The man Of
the east smiles slowly as he dreams Of
ehastening the west.
Even it is that the man who is black
has dreams of rising nightly and
overspreading the world. He dreams
Of consolidating the states of Africa in.
to . vast negro empire. And who il
to say that no black man of genius
will arise and give expression to this
dream? Who is to say that there is no
conceivable chance of its being realiz.
ed? And from an empire who is to
say that absolate world dominance
shall not grow?
Aye. races surely have dreams.
Often have / thought of the mys-
FERROUS differences, at once subtle and
impossible, that exist between races.
It 10 not given that white OF black OF
yellow or red shall blend. All are
human, oil are made from one image,
and still it is not to be that they shall
blend. They understand each other
not. The wisest man of the east com.
prehends not the men of the west.
And the teeming millions of the east
are to the western philosophe. as q
closed, mystical book.
Difficult indeed is it for one branch
Of q race to know its fellow branch.
Even now we, the people of Europe,
are making ready our arms. We are
preparing an Armageddon among our
selves.
And this is but the beginning.
Great captains in arms have had
this dream Of the dominant race.
Caesar had it. aud 50 had the great
Hun, AttiIa. au.i SO had the mighty
Napoleon. The Greek captain Alex
ander, would have conquered the
stars. He would have gone forth to
other worlds.
The worlds mishtie>t men of action
have had this splendid dream.
And such men are expressions of
race impulses.
The olive branch Of peace is we'll,
but the time for its waving is not yet.
The one who thinks must front the
thing that is. And the peace that now
exists is no peace. Indeed, the peace
that now exists is war in its subtliest
and most cruel and most delay form.
1t lacks the honesty and fairness Of
