F. Root Of American injustice.

Caesar A. A. r. Taylor of PhfladeI.
phia may not be a prophet In the Bib
Heal sense of the term nor the son Of
a prophet, but the accuracy with which
he has foretold in his book the present
situation of the United States In its
relation to other countries shows him
to be q man Of broad vision.
With no other desire but to truthful
ly interpret the meaning Of the injus-
tice to the colored people Of this coun,
try as practiced by legislators and
sanctioned by the national government,
he tells how class legislation as seen
In the discrimination against the AZ
ro-American citizen on public convey
ances, segregation in cities and places
Of public accommodation will react
upon those responsible for the exist
ence Of such injustice
The title of Mr.. Taylor's book, 1.-The
Conflict and Commingling Of the
Races" is most appropriate. This
new work on the great American prob
lem, wherein the Negro is forcefully
and fearlessly defended against the at
tacks Of Tillman. Vardaman. Blease
and all others who delight In singing
him out for drastic arraignment In
print and speech and making him O
special subject for reactionary legisla
ton, is bound to have salutary effect
upon the public conscience.
The author enjoys wide acquaint
ance and correspondence with many
of the foremost personages in this
country and abroad. His vast expert
ence and past associations have afford
ed opportunities which equip him with
ability to speak or write Interestingly
and instructively. He Is optimistic
throughout. yet his language Ia star
Ting. cutting and firm.
His book il a courageous and manly
lefense. He does not whimper mol
whine, He asks no quarter. He hal
put together in '"rhe Conflict and Com
mingling Of the Races book which
turns both the opposition and the argu
ments Of the opposition into missile
which he hurls with compelling and
effective force.
