THE ONLY SOLUTION.

Recently at the Church of England
Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney
Olivier, who was governor of Jamaica
from 1907 to the end of 1912, put for
ward the claim that no solution of the
American color question was possible
except by a resolute disclaimer of the
color line and the race differention
theory
Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows
what he is talking about. In the
Island of Jamaica, where he was gov
ernor for five years, there are about
100000 colored people and only 100000
whites and yet there is absolutely no
friction between the races. Jamaica
is British colony and the govern
ment is just. Colored men enjoy ev-
cry civil and political right which white
men have and there is no color line.
Among other things Sir Sidney said:
my study and comparison Of con-
ditions in the United States and the
West Indies" he said, "has brought
me to that conclusion. American and
colonial politicians and public men are
not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor
evangelical Christian missionaries. I
do not expect them to adopt the meth
DDS of missionaries, nor do sympa-
thize with all their programmes. But
it cannot be ignored that it happened
that the faiths of the men who laid
the foundations for the peaceful de-
velopment Of the mixed community In
Jamaica were democratic and human
itarian and, above all, uncompromis-
ingly Christian.
Were race differentiation held to 1t

balance Of numbers is as it is in the
South in America it must tend to
foster obscure preparations for civil
war and rebellion. II statesmen and
citizens face in the contrary direction
do not say that they will attain I'm
mediately civil peace, but am conn.
dent that they will be travelling the
only road toward 1t.

Special to THE APPEAL.
Washington, D. c., November ga
delegation Of cOlored citizens repre-
senting the National Independent Po-
litical League, bearing protest and
petition directed against race segre-
cation in the government service, Wis
tied the President on Thursday, and
had an audience with him. The petit
ton bore about twenty thousand sig
natures, from 80 States, mostly color
ed people, about equally divided be-
tween the South and the North. The
delegation was introduced by Con
gresham Thatcher, of Massachusetts.
The delegation was composed of w.
Monroe Trotter of Boston, Rev. DR..
Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y,
President of the League, DR.. William
A. Sinclair of Philadelphia, w. Maui
rice Spencer of Delaware, Thomas
Walker of District of Columbia, r.
H. M. Murray Of Virginia, and Mrs.
Ida Wells Barnett of Chicago.
W. Monroe Trotter, editor of the
Boston Guardian, was spokesman. He
made an extended statement and gave
instances of discrimination which had
been discovered and insisted that
these were calculated to .'humiliate
and degrade our race and bring it
into scorn and contempt" and that
it was all the worse since it is being
done under authority Of the National
government.
The President was impressed by
the protest and commented on its
strength and stated that it was de-
