A NEGRO AT THE BANQUET.

At the banquet given Monday
night in the Auditorium Hotel in
Chicago by the Western Economic
Society, Senator Money of Mississip-
pi was one Of the invited guests.
Seated at the table was negro, also
a guest AS a Mississippian and a
Southern man, Senator Money real
izing at glance the unpleasant pre-
dicament in which he had been
placed, left the banquet hall, CIV
ing as an excuse that he was trout
bled with neuralgia.
In Chicago and almost everywhere
in the States of the North, it is not
deemed improper, in general sense,
to accept the negro as political and
social equal, but such amalgama-
ton is mtolerable to Southern
man, especially if he be self-respect-
ing and welIbred.
To the average Northern mind this
attitude of the Southern man seems
to be inconsistent and is not appre-
ciated, but ii is in full consonance
with condition which has pre-
vailed since the earliest days of the
Republic, when the negroes stolen
from Africa by Yankee slave trad
ers, We're sold in the South when
they had become improbable in the
North.
e In the South the negro is held to
his level. He is treated kindly and
is fully protected by law in his life
and his property, and he even enjoys
privileges which are denied him in
the North where he is the social
equal of some white men, and where
he may be married legally to some
white woman, but in the South he
can never rise beyond the ban which
is against him.
In the North this is styled preju-
dice, but it is not.
Who could or can understand the
negro better than the Southern
white men who as children and as
boys, have played together and have
reached their manhood in the same
atmosphere?
I'm The South, unlike the North, the
negro can never be the social equal
of the decent, self-respecting white
man, and he can attend a banquet
only as a waiter, in which service he
may excel; therefore it is not singu-
lar that Senator Money did except,
mildly but no less effectively, to the.
presence Of negro at this banquet.
This is not the first instance where
the negro has been invited to and
has sat at the banquet board with
white men at the North, but in every
case the man from the South when
invited has protested silently by re-
firing as becomes a gentleman.
It was unquestionably the right of
the Western Economic Society to
invite this NEGRO to sit with them at
the banquet, but Senator Money
could not escape the criticism of
condemnation had he leveled him
self TO the plane of the negro by sit
ting at this banquet.
In retiring he did no more than
should have been expected from any
gentleman from the South.
Whatever be the reflection of dis
credit is not chargeable to the negro
but to the Western Economic So
ciety, Of which the negro was the
guest.
