by Chief OF Police Werner, after

such descriptions as his were con
tanned in the Bible. Mr.. Yoder also
drew comparison between himself and

ANOTHER REMOVAL.

The Republican Administration at
Washington has again gone on record
as being antagonistic to the political
interests of the colored citizen in the
Southland. This time 1t has removed
Mr.. A. b. Kennedy (colored) Re
ceiver of Public Moneys at New Or
leans and appointed Mr.. Charles c..
Palfrey. white, in his stead. When
the apOlogists for the Administration
can explain this away. then we shall
be in a particularly happy frame OF
mind upon this and many other
questions.
The time will yet come when the
average citizen OF color will realize
that the name Republican is used as
a cloak for many anti-Negro politi-
clans and that the only way we can
judge men is by their actions. It
has been popular in some quarters to
hit the Negro" and this feeling is
shared by many Republicans, VINO
have imbibed Democratic racial an
tipathies and who lose no time or
opportunity to show II.
Those colored men who enjoy the
right Of franchise should certainly
learn how to cast a discriminating
ballot and support those Republicans
who accept the original tenets and
principles OF the party from side to
side and from bottom to top.

AS TO OCToROoN.

The Supreme Court held that the
sole question is whether an octoroon
is person OF the negro or black
race within the meaning OF the
statute.
Scientifically, or ethnologically. a
person Is Caucasian or negro IN the
same proportion I'm which the two
strains OF blood are mixed In his veins
and, therefore. scientifically or ethno
logically. person with seven -eighths
white blood in his veins and one
eighth negro blood Is seven-eiEh th &
white, one-eighth negro. but the
words OF a statute are not to be un.
derstood in their technical. but in
their popular sense; and the prose.
cution contends that the popular
meaning OF the word negro includes
an octOrOon. The dictionaries show
that the word negro does not in
clude an octOroon within its mean.
ing. In North Carolina a person who
has one-siXteenth OF more OF Afri-
can blood is negro, but il gives as
It's authority for that statement the
decision of the Supreme Court OF
the State, the court having simply
applied or enforced the following
statute.
All free persons descended from
negro ancestors 70 the fourth gene
ration inclusive. though one ancestor
in each generation may have been
a white person. shall be deemed free
negroes and persons Of mixed
blood"
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1910-05-07

Justice Provosty further points
out the fact that the Louisiana statute
does not define the word negro as
including a person Of mixed blood
Had IL done so there would be an
end OF all question. The prosecute
contends that the word does not need
to be defined in a statute. that pop
ularly il has a definite, wellknown
meaning.
The decision further reads: There
is a word in the English language
which does not express the meaning
OF mixed negro and other blood
which has been coined for the very
purpose Of expressing that meaning,
OF persons of the pure race, and il
can have now a different. or more
enlarged. meaning only by wrenching
IL from its original meaning, as was
done with the word 'colored.' and
imparting 10 it a meaning different
from that which IL was intended to
bear and has always borne in the
language.
