complete sewer system, or in other
words, extending and improving the
system we now have. If these two
things are to be worked together and
at the same time, we believe $5,000,-
600 invested in that way would be
wisely spent. Streets add to the
beauty and convenience of a city, and
they are needed, but at the same time
sewers add to the health of the peo-
pie and are just as important. While
we are making preparations to repair
and extend our streets we should also
look after our sewers. These ara
two questions that every citizen
should relaize that they are vitality
interested in, whether they are prop
erty owners or not, they are citizens
of this city and it is their bounden
duty to take an active part in every
thing that pertains to it's betterment.

lndiscretion

In this southland of ours there
live side by side a black race and a
white ace They have lived together
here hundreds of years. Most Of that
time the people of the white race were
the owners of the people Of the black
race. AS time rolled on, conditions
changed and through a providential
method the slaves were set free and
thrown out upon their own resources.

FRIDAY, JULY 81, 1911.
Nashville Streets.

A suggestion has been made that
$4,000, 900 be spent in the improve
ment of the streets of Nashville.
This suggestion was made by a man
who is in the position to know what
this city is able to do and also to
see her needs. 1t is an indisputa-
BILE fact that Nashville is fast forging
ahead with the leading cities of the
South, and with her geographical
location and natural resources she is
in a position to command the atten-
ton of the business world. Other
cities of the South have grown in
leaps and bounds during the last
few years. Most conspicuous among
these are Birmingham and Atlanta.
Memphis has also grown rapidly, but
the last census showed that that city
had been greatly overrated. Birming-
ham and Atlanta held their own and,
in fact, went beyond the expectations
of most people. Nashville made a
heroic effort to boost her census fig,
ures and the showing is n that
every citizen of this city should be
proud of. But, be that as it may, the
fact remains that the people of this
city have not eXerted themselves to
the full extent of their ability to
make Nashville the greatest city in
the South. It dawns upon the bust
ness men now that if this city is to
hold the prestige she has already
gained and at the same time keep
pace with the progress of the South,
many improvements must be made.
Notable among these Improvements
needed is a good system of streets.
For years and years pedestrians
and people driving in various kinds
of vehicles have noticed the bad con.
dition of our streets and sidewalks
Thousands of horses have been
strained to death by the holes and
rough places over which the wagons
have been pulled, the old, WORKOUT
brick sidewalks have been the cause
of many an ankle sprain, and there
are sections thickly populated where
there are neither paved streets mol
sidewalks. This city cannot grow il
such a condition, consequently, the
men who have the welfare of the city
at heart are seeking a remedy, and i
must be admitted that when Mr.
Joseph Frank, president of the Boar(
of Trade, made the suggestion tina
the people of Nashville spend $4,000,
600 on her streets, he did not do 81
without first giving the matter care
full consideration.
Can the taxpayers of Nashville al
ford to invest that amount in stree
paving? We believe they can, bu
at the same time, another question
suggests itself that is just as impo1
tant to the welfare of the people a
good streets, and that is good sewers
When we think of spending $4,000
900 for paving streets, we should ais
take into consideration that where tn
most of this money would be spen
sewers are needed now, and also i
many sections where we have exec
lent streets and sidewalks we hav
no sewers. It may be in the min
of Mr.. Frank to carry with the stree
building idea also the building of

Grave Injustice.

Last sunday nlgnJ a small DOy
wal arrested on a Jefferson street car
by a policeman in citizens clothes.
In the city court the policeman
charged the boy with making re-
marks while on the street car about
some white people. 1t is said the boy
stated he would not give up, his seat
for any white trash" When the po-
liceman arrested the boy and while
waiting for the patrol he says the boy
sauced him. Upon this statement
Of the policeman, Judge Baker fined
the boy $40. The boy in question
states that when he boarded the car
he took a seat in front of another
colored boy, by whom a white lady
was sitting. This boy was very
bright and doubtless was taken for
a white boy, but a white gentleman
came in who seems to have known that
the boy was colored, he took the va
cant seat by the boy and asked him
to change seats with the lady, which
was done. Some one remarked that
they would not move for white
trash" but the boy arrested says he
did not say a word. While waiting
for the patrol the policeman cursed
him and said to him, "You are one
of those dam proper niggers," to
which the boy said, eyes, | am prop
err" He and the policeman talked
freely. The boy says he did not know
he was a policeman as he was in CT
liens clothes, and admits that he
did talk right to his head. But if he
had been dressed in uniform this boy
knew that the policeman had no right
to curse him nor to abuse him, and
it was natural that he would resent
it. Any boy his age would have done
the same thing, and instead of the
boy being fined, the policeman should
have been dismissed from the force
for his treatment toward this child.
But instead the Judge of the Police
Court fined the boy $40.
This same judge is now asking the
people Of Nashville to r~e-elect him
for another term. His record is well
known in this city and needs no dis
cussion at this time. 1t would be
worth while for the Negroes of this
city to remember how they have been
treated in the police court and what
little consideration their rights have
been given. The place to correct
such evils is at the ballot box. There
are scores of men in Nashville who
are courageous and fair, and we need
as a judge of the city court Just such
a man. The actions of the policemen
are based largely upon the attitude
of the city judge. If he is a man who
will take their word for everything
without listening to the statement o.
the accused, it is to be expected thai
the policemen will abuse and beat
up persons whom they have no righi
to. We have had many cases like
this, and even wors to come before
this court, and if the Negroes o
Nashville sit idly by and allow thiI
man to be reelected as city judge
they can blame nobody but them
selves and will not deserve the pro
lection that citizens should receiv,
from the hands of the executors of tn,
law.

They were required to take their
places by the side of the race that
had had thousands of years of civili-
cation. The laws that governed one
governed all. The duties that rested
upon one rested upon the other. 1t
will not require a learned person to
decide which of these two races
should be the stronger, nor which OF
the two should be the possessors of
the wealth of the country. Further
more, it is easy to decide which of
these two races has the advantage
of debating the policy of this coun-
try. Nevertheless, it is a fact that
the Negroes of the South and the
white people of the South do under
stand each other thoroughly, and with
this understanding they have been
able to get along with less friction
than n two peoples under similar
circumstances in the world. This be-
ing true, il does seem that some OF
the Negro people at times are very
indiscreet.
One of the greatest faults we have
as a people is the habit of talking
about things that do not concern us
and which we cannot change, which,
if they were changed, would not bene-
fit us as a race. If the white peo-
pie choose to do a thing that is for
their convenience and are going TO
pay for it with their own money, what
right have Negroes to object and
what does it profit them if they do?
It only makes enemies where they
would have friends. 1t makes no diff
ference however Objectionable it may
be to the Negroes if 1t is not trespass-
ing upon their rights as free citizens,
we fail to see where there is any
cause for complaint. 1t would be a
wiser. plan to let those things alone
that belong to other folks and con-
centrate our energies on those things
that belong to us, and strive to make
for ourselves those things that we
need and for which we are able to
pay.
A man with a capital Of $4,000 is
hardly able to own an automobile un-
less ne has the same for business
purposes, neither is he able to invest
his money in air ships and yachts,
for these things are for the people
who have more money than they
have time. If we would invest our
money in the things in our reach
and in a way that would benefit the
individual and the race as well, 1t
would be more p~roftably spent than
it is when we spend the same in
useless lawsuits protesting In the
courts where the decision must be
rendered by a man or the friends Of
the man against whom we are pro
testing. This glibbiness on the par
of the Negro race is doing more tt
weaken and hold us back than any
thing we practice, and also otter
causes conflicts between members O
the black race and the white race
If as a people we would learn to worl
more and talk less, we would in a few
years see a great change in u de
velopment and we would have NOR,
friends among the white people O
the South and the North as we'll.
