OUR MULATTo PROBLEM.

1.-THE United States has, in addi-
ton to its negro problem, a mulatto
problem" Such is the suggestive
statement Of Prof. H. e. Jordan Of the
University of Virginia, in an article
in the Popular Science Monthly.
The presence of the mixed bloods in
our population is a source Of perplex'
ity to many sociologists. It is estimat.
ed that Of our ten million colored pop
ulation, somewhat less than eight mil.
lion are pure negroes. Is the fact
Of good or bad omen?
Professor Jordan, after careful dis.
cussion of the subject, both from q
biological and political standpoint,
reaches the conclusion that the mulat'
to is on the whole superior to the ne
30, and that in the presence of some
two millions of them among US we
have the key to the solution of our
race problem.
In the island Of Jamaica there are
only about $1,000 whites to 100000
colored, $4,000 Of the latter being mul
attoes. Governor Oliver does not draw
any discouraging omens from this. but
on the contrary, declares the presence
Of the mixed bloods "a present ad
vantage and q future promise Of great
good"
The scientist LIE Bon has said that
the effect of the interviewing be-
tween different races Is to destroy
the soul of both; but Professor Jor
dan discredits this conclusion by as
sorting that the mulattoes of our
country, as we'll as Of Jamaica, form
the most intelligent and potentially
the most useful element of our colored
population. ..r
They are certain to increase in mum.
Der, both by cross-breeding and be-
cause Of the fact that the fertility OF
the mixed bloods in intermarriage Is
quite as great as that Of the pure
strain, II not greater. Such being the
case. 1t is q fact to be recognized,
whether 1t Is repugnant to our social

New York.-Rev. DR.. ]. 8. Jackson
financial secretary Of the A. M. Il. Zior
church, with headquarters In Birming
ham, Ala, through a noteworthy bust
ness deal, has succeeded In saving thu
Rush Memorial Zion church In this
city from being taken over by its credi
tors.
The Rush Memorial Zion church
which was built under the passionate Of
the Rev. j. FL. McMullen, is one Of thu
most beautiful Of the Zion edifices. Il
is valued at $4,000.
Owing to the heavy debt that huns
over the church, the connection has
been giving the matter grave concern
and 1t was feared by Bishop Hood thai
the church would eventually 60 int
the hands of the creditors. The pay
ment Of $4,000 came due early in June
and the creditors had threatened tt
foreclose and take the church over.
Realizing the embarrassment such 6
procedure would give the Zion connec
ton, DR.. Jackson was summoned tt
New York to consult the creditors ant
save the connection from what seemed
to be the inevitable. The lawyers were
on the verge Of entering suit against
the church when DR.. Jackson, on the
strength Of his reputation, satisfied the
creditors to the extent Of $4,000 for ont
week. This clever transaction saved
the church and the connection from
what would have been sore embar
rassment.
This is doubtless one of the most
significant and telling business trans.
actions put through in recent years by
a church financier. This victory will
be hailed with delight by the Zion
connection and the race throughout the
country. The ability Of DR.. Jackson
to save the church from embarrass.
ment means much to the connection In
this city.
The Rush Memorial church is q
monument to the Zion connection. II
Is located in a district where its in.
fuence is greatly needed. The signal
service of DR.. Jackson to his church
will increase the high regard In which
he Is already held by his fellow
churchmen through his great ability as
q church financier.
DIR. Jackson has long been regarded
as one of the ablest churchmen of the
race and stands high in his church. he
Is a man of great parts and Is one Of
the most gifted preachers in the Zion
connection. His powers as a preacher
were never more strikingly seen than
at the New York annual conference
recently held in Yonkers.
Bishop Hood, the senior bishop Of
the connection. speaks Of him as past
master as gospel preacher. The high
service DR.. Jackson has rendered to
the connection has won for him the
highest esteem from the board Of bish.
ops. and he is prominently mentioned
as one likely to become bishop. Dr.
Jackson was born in Green county,
Ala. and is a graduate of the State
Normal college at Birmingham.
He was elected five years ago finan-
cial secretary of the Zion church. and
his administration has been decidedly
successful

, SUMNER ON THE JUDICIARY.

One of the big characters Of our
civil war times was u. 8. Senator
Charles Sumner, called the successor
of the great Daniel Webster. In the
heat of the discussion of slavery ques.
lions, Sumner was one Of the giant
abolitionists and he was finally beaten
unconscious with q cane at his seat in
the senate, by q rebel member of the
congress. In one of his greatest
speeches, Sumner said:
II hold Judges, and especially the
supreme court Of the country in much
respect, but l am too familiar with the
history of judicial proceedings to re.
gard them with any superstitious rev.
erence. Judges are but men, and in
all ages have shown a full share Of
human frality. Alas! alas! the worst
crimes Of history have been perpetrat.
ed under their sanction. The blood
Of martyrs and of patriots, crying
from the ground, summons them to
judgment"
Recall Of the judiciary was not
urged, in Summers time, but had 1t
been, it would have been supported by
the truly great believers in freedom
and substantial justice.-Minn. Daily
News.

ideas or otherwise.

The views Of Professor Jordan are
interesting as coming from a man of
the South, the section where the race
prejudice is strongest; and there is
cause for hope in the belief expressed
by him that "the mulatto is the
leayen with which to lift the negro
race, the best lever for negro eleva-
ton. "-Minneapolis Tribune.

EDITOR

Two factors would. il seems tor US, work
against the success of such a plan. The first is
that to carry it out. the United States would
have to discriminate not only between classes of
Japanese immigrants but between immigrant
races The history Of immigrant Legislation of
the past few years indicates that the Gnited
States is aVerse to imposing any kind of a Tit
eracy test on those aliens who come to our
shores The latest immigration bill does not
provide a literacy test To allow European I'M
migrants, for instance, to enter the United
States without the imposition of such test, and
toIrequire Japanese immigrants to take the test,
would raise point of discrimination quite as
important as that raised in California. Japan
would argue, and with some justice, that if an
educated Europeans care allowed to enter the
United States, and unedueated japanese are
not, Uncle Sam is tacitly declaring the Japan
csc inferior to the Europeans.
The second factor arises from the recogni d
condition that it is the coSie class, the unedu-
Gated class, and not the student, merchant and
travelling classes, that has brought about the
land-ownership controversy.
To refuse naturalization in the future to the
coolie class will not solve the present question,
which arose from the realization of California
that she has an alien land -holding population
active in her midst The United States cannot
enter consideration of the naturalization ques-
ton along. the lines proposed by DIR. Gulick I'M
til it has settled this land ownership controversy.
Japan's recent notes to tile United States indi-
cate that Japan is not satisfied with Uncle Sans
answer to the protests made through Ambassa-
dor Chinda.
Hence it should bel clear that discus
SION of Japanese naturalization which Yin
wolves distinction between classes of imn
grants must be preceded BY settlement of the
question of what the United States is going to
do with the japanese who already own or lease
lands in California and elsewhere.

MAKE EVERY DOLLAR COUNT

The territorial administration is taking wise
precautions in emphasizing TO the heads of
departments the wisdom of strict economy dur
ing the next few months.
No emergency exists nor is there anything
deeply alarming in the situation, but the trend
of affairs financial in the United States is a
powerful argument why Hawaii should keep a
considerable amount of cash on hand Money
in the territory is somewhat slight now and will
be tighter if the territorial Officials make a
heavy drain on the treasury and deposit ac-
counts, for the deposit aceohhf Particularly has
a direct bearing on the ability of the banks to
carry on their ordinary commercial business At
the present time there is a considerable sum on
deposit in Hawaii's banks which may be con-
served under policy of strict economy and of
making not one cents expenditure that is not
demanded BY following such a policy, the ter
ritorial administration may be of unique bene-
fit to the people in general.
Governor Frear's cabinet conference" of yes
terday,-the second of the kind, it is said, during
his term,-should not be the basis for alarm. 1t
was held to bring home to the various depart
ment heads the absolute necessity for guarding
their expenditures and for putting the territory
in position to meet without fear the expected
drop in income tax receipts.

PARTY MERGER IMPOSSIBLE

recent conference of Progressives in Rhode
Island has decided, and with wisdom, that under
no circumstances will the party consent to the
proposed merger plan, or any merger plan, with
the Republican party.
The Progressive party and the Republican
party are in harmony on many issues but there
is this important difference in general policy
that the Progressiyes have declared their great
crusade is for recognition of human rights before
property rights, of human welfare before indus
trial profits, while with the Republican party
that is but one of many features. The Republic
an party is not yet purged Of its oldtiIhe politi-
clans who subordinated the workers to the occu-
patton. And until it definitely ribs itself of the
selfish interests that have controlled Republican
legislation in state and nation, it will largely
mark time while the young Progressive party,
giving new emphasis to old tissues, andl new
meaning to old catch-words. will advance.

LIMITED JAPANESE NATURALIZATION

DIR. Sidney /. Gulick's remarks on the Gap,
anese question" as raised by the recent passage
of an anti-alien land ownership bill in Califor-
MIA. Indicate that he has given much study to the
subject They Indicate moreover, that he is in
sympathy with an Interpretation of ''the broth
erhood of man" in its broadcast sense, in a sense
Of true Christianity. He does not however, in
his suggestion for dealing with the question,
take into account all the factors.
DIR. Gulick favors limited naturalization for
Japanese who come to America. Apparently he
does not approve the naturalization of the coolie
class. but cnly of the educated CLASSES. He
thinks that the uneducated Japanese who enter
the United States are, largely because of their
lack of education, forced to work in gangs and
inevitably tend to communize, and that this
state of affairs makes against assimilabilitE. He
would make considerable knowledge of the Eng
Iish language a prerequisite for naturalization
