When Christ was on earth II was
only a very few times that He dealt

that HE only failed once with an In
dividual person and that was Pontius

This nation like all others is made up
Of individuals Of many different types,
and It is only through these individ-

Him. Personal work is what Is needed
most. and that is something that each
one of us may take a hand in. Just
a word may mean world of diff

In view of the statement by the

made at the recent session to endorse

The League is fortunate in that
there are no rules or bylaws and the
president and no one else cares a.
bout parliamentary usages. They
simply do business and the one oh.
jet is TO help"
This seems 90 settle the question.

lowing remarks made in a recent is
sue:
An unjust report 20 the effect that
the National Negro Business League
in New York endorsed Col. Roosevelt
as a candidate for President in 1912
has been widely circulated At no
time during the session was there any
such proposition in any form what
ever before the League. Mr. Roose-
welt was most cordially received on
the occasion of his address and he
was given an ovation when he had
finished. There were various cries
from the enthusiastic audience, all
OF which were cheered. But no polit-
zeal proposition for the endorsement
OF Colonel Roosevelt or any one else
was ever brought forward. The false
report would hardly be worthy Of
notice were il not that the wrong
impression may do the Business
League much harm.
But anyone acquainted with the
Business League Knows that Ii is in
no degree political, and is just what
and only what it purposes TO be. Fur
ther. no friend OF the League or the
race Will circulate any contrary re
port. The race has political organiza-
lions and IL should have them and IL
has a business league and it should
have it. But the business league is
not a political organization and it
should not be.
If We were on the jury TO try the
case. we should certainly acquit The
New York Age Of being the organ or
Official mouthpiece of Or. Booker r.
Washington. in view of the citations
from its own columns which we have
quoted. II has branded DIR. Booker

being the friend of the organization
over which he presides. We have said

COUNCILMAN BLAKE'S MEASURE.

Hon. George Med. Blake, member
of the Common Council from Monroe
Ward and incidentally our represen-
tative. as we live in that ward has
certainly landed on the unpopular
side of the contention when he in
PRODUCED a resolution providing for
the separation OF the colored people
in the public parks OF this city. There
has been a storm OF protest not from
the colored people, but from the
white ones and it shows more than
anything else could show the cordial
and friendly relationship existing iu
this community between the better
class Of white and colored people.
Nothing is wanted that will even
tend TO disturb this pleasant rela-
tionship. We have rot fully reco,
cred from the willing effect Of the
State Jim Grow" legislation and
some colored folks are mighty ten
der" on this situation now. Let us
have a rest Let politicians cease
interfering with us and let us Guilt
vate that pleasant relationship that
has existed well-nigh since the foun-
dation of the government.
Mr.. Blake now says he wishes to
establish a park for colored people.
SO well and so good, but the idea of
advertising that the colored folks
here are distasteful or insulting TO
white people 10 such an extent as TO
justify their separation should be
discountenanced.
The only trouble that we see here
between the colored and white folks
is that the white folks cannot get
enough OF the right kind around
them. On every hand they are ask
ing for colored folks, not to come
only in their parks. but in their
houses, where they eat. drink and
sleep.
Evidently, then Mr.. Blake consult
ed the wrong kind of white folks
Let him make an investigation and
he will find out that many a toddline
white child will have heart-ache, and
many a baby eye Will be wet fol
months TO come, if this separation
idea is carried out to its logical con
clusion.
The putting in jail OF SO many col
ored loafers has cleared our street
corners and alley-ways Of this type
OF humanity, and if colored men o,
the worthless type desire to loaf
they do ii on the inside Of the house:
and not on the outside of them. w,
believed that the remedy was dras
tic and not justified by the law. bG
the effect has been electrical and /
has served to increase the respec
for every colored person in the com
munity.
Our people have been largel,
gauged by this specimen OF human
ity. Now 1t is not to be seen any
more and the better class of colore,
people are much pleased. Let CO.
ored men stop this lounging on tn
street corners and colo~ed wome,
