COMMENT

A suit mas been filed in the
Alameda county courts which may
have bearing on the civil rights
of our race. An employee of a
candy store was refused service
when OIL holiday, on the ground
that she was an employee of the
place. The suit is filed under
Section Fl of the Civil code. which
DEGREES that no firm can refuse
accommodation to any one willing
to pay the price asked for it.
Back to the soil is a good slogan
for our race. and should be driven
home to our young men, as there is
grave danger that the present gen
Grafton is fast becoming a race of
dancing buns.
One of the crying needs i'll this
community is a day home, where
working mothers may leave their
children 10 be cared for. We would
call the women's clubs attention to
this, with hope that they may find
time to discuss something practical.

MASONIC NOTES

The annual election of officers to
guide the several lodges will take
place next month. 1t is to be
hoped that capable craftsmen will
be chosen.
Years ago the question of con-
solidatine the two CITY lodges was
seriously considered and would have
been consummated had it not been
for the selfshness of a few all
important leaders. There is no
excuse for two lodges i'll San Fran
cisco and every reason why the two
lodges should come together. In
union there is strength.
Grand Master Harris will make
his official visit to the Northern
lodges next month.

The work of Mr.. Washington is
not finished. One generation is
wholly insufficient to lift a race
with the traditions of centuries of
slavery behind it to the plane of
self-respecting aud respected citizen

Washingtons in those belts of the
Southern States in which those of

his life was long enough to fix an

A GOOD MAN GONE

Is. F. CHRONICLE, NOV. II, 1915.
Few men have lived whose life
was so useful to others as the life
of Booker T. Washington has been
to the people of the United States.
Allied by birth TO the American
and African races. his service has
been equally advantageous to both.
| His death is a national loss. 1t
| will be found difficult to think of
one whose place in the world will
not be more easily filled.
As representative of the white
race, he did more than any other
man has succeeded in doing to en-
list the best thought of the nation
i'll the solution of the industrial and
other problems of the South. which
resulted from the sudden emancipa-
ton of the slaves and their endow.
meut with all the rights of citizen
ship, while yet wholly unprepared
to discharge corresponding duties.
AS representative Of the Africans
he did more than any other map
has done to impress upon the freed
men the fact that citizenship in
wolves responsibilities as we'll as
privileges and that the first duty of
the emancipatec race was to secure
for themselves the economic status
and stability of character which
wins respect aud confidence
wherever it exists.
Those whose memories run back
to the middle of the last century
subcousciously compare Mr.. Wash
ington with Frederick Douglass
another distinguished representa-
tive of the two races. But the two
men were not comparable. Mr..
Douglass. by instinct, capability
aid the exigencies of the period
was an agitator and a politician.
Mr.. Washington, on the contrary,
was paci6er, aud pre-eminently a
man of practical affairs.
Although as much Anglo-Saxon
as African, it was the African race
which needed his services, and to
that race his life was devoted.
And the effect Of his life was to
promote industry and thrift among
that emotional people whom posi-
bly, the example and teachings of
Douglass had rendered the more
susceptible to the influence of the

clans who swooped down like vult- /

A GREAT MAN PASSES
S. F. BULLETIN, NOV, IS. 1915

y. r. buI-LEIlN, NV w. iSlJ
Booker Taliafe-o Washington lies
dead at Tuskegee There is not a
man in A merioa SO important that
he will not honor himself by honor
ing this big hearted. broad-minded
heroic Negro. Other men in the
United States have risen from little
beginnings. Other men have been
poor boys, and have later strutted
prominently before the world. But
Booker L. Washington crossed a
gap at which the white mans mind
reels. He began life as a slave, a
little higher than cattle, a little
lower than the white man. He had
to travel an unthinkable distance,
as wide as world and as deep as
time, before he could so much as
reach the place where the poorest,
most friendless of white boys stands
at birth. He began his career
when the best of the old slave
holding aristocracy saw but one
hope for the South, and that hope
was to break the Negroes courage
and keep him slave i'll fact, if not
in name.
In the midst of that darkness, in
which all factions were pitiable, the
light of Booker T. Washington's
unconquerable spirit famed up like
the morning star. Why or how
no one can say. Genius, white,
black, yellow, or nondescript, can
not be diagnosed. Pure, unsel6sh
devotion to humanity, when it
occurs to any member Of any race,
is an alteration doctors can neither
understand nor cure. 1t has to run
it's course, tc fame, to death, to
riches. to poverty, to achievement,
TO failure. 1t drives men on, as
Booker Washington was driven on,
as long as the breath is in them.
What Washington accomplished
for both races in the South will
fappear increasingly as the years go
by. Before he died he saw some.
but not all, of the fruits of Lis
work. He must often have carried
a heavy burden of sorrow and fore
boding. He never summed himself
OH the pinnacle of success. Only
by constant toll could he hold tine
place he had gained. The last OF
his life was as difficult as the first.
The Caucasian race has final
term of compliment for the colored
races. We say that mans skin
was black, or brown, or red, as the
case may have been, but that his
heart was white. 1t is an un.
warranted coudescension to apply
the term to Booker Washington.
His heart was with his people

tendance on Governors day of 10000

Monday, the opening day Of the fair,
will be devoted to the labor unions.

officials in making that day success.

They spent very pleasant time in
the statehouse and in conversation
with the governor. Mayor Murphy
told him that there had not been a
governor in Norwich since back in the
sixties, and they probably would not
have seen one then but for the fact
that Governor Buckingham was raised

PRINCIPAL TIRRELL SPOKE
AT LIBRARY INSTITUTE.
His Topic, "The Most Wonderful of
Mechanisims."

At the library institute at Storrs,
Principal Henry A. Tirrell of the Nor
witch Free Academy was a speaker on
Monday afternoon upon the topic.
1.-The Most Wonderful of Mechanisms."
In discussing the wonders of the
world of discovery and invention, Mr..
Tirrell defined a genius as the man
who shows to us the things which are
seIf-evident after we have been shown.
The genius is the one who does the
little more, which is just beyond the
reach of the ordinary man. He is not
that they can appreciate his accom-
plishments.
Mr.. Tirrell considered the book the
most wonderful of all human con-
trivances, because it has the most deli
cate work to do in recording, preserv-
ing and transmitting the waves of
thought. He considered the material
