ored people of Richmond lived side
by side in most harmonious relations
and that there was not the least
sign of race prejudice"
Now somebody has lied. Either the
Times-Dispatch has misquoted the
speaker or he has deliberately falsi
fed. The Planet, the Reformer ant
the St. Luke Herald newspapers pub
lished by colored people has stated
scores of times that rank prejudice
exists and certainly the enactment o.
the city segregation ordinance which
does not permit colored and white
people to live "side by side"
In truth the talk about "harmonl
GUS relations" is mostly bunk and il
has been handed out for years by the
bootlickers who for personal reasons
desire to curry favor with their on
pressors. =

HAITIAN TREATY RATIFIED.

The United States Senate has I'M
animously ratified the treaty with
Haiti under which the United States
assumes protectorate over the tur-
bulent island republic, taking over
control of it's finances and police,
guaranteeing it's territorial integrity
and undertaking to develop it's re-
sources. The treaty already has been
approved by the Haitian congress; and
its terms virtually are in operation
under the eye of strong American
marine expedition.
The principal articles of the con-
vention provide for:
American supervision of finances
and the collection of customs.
American supervision of the pay
ment of the public debt, inquiry into
the validity of existing debts and reg
ulation of the contracting of future
debts.
Policing of the republic by native
constabulary, Differed for the present
by Americans
Intervention by the United States,
If necessary to preserve order and for
guaranteeing territorial integrity and
independence.
Development of Haitian resources
/ under American auspices.
1t is set forth particularly that the
United States shall by it's good Offices,
aid the Haitian government in proper
and efficient development Of it's agri-
cultural, mineral and commercial re-
sources and in establishment of the
| finances of the republic on a. solid
basis.
When formal notifications have been
/ exchanged, the President of Haiti will
appoint, upon nomination by the Pres.
ident of the United States, a general
receiver and such employees as may be
necessary, who shall collect, receive
and apply all customs duties on i'm
ports and exports accruing at Haitian
ports.

TURNING THE DIAL BACKWARD.
Saint Louis has spoken and en-
dOrsed by three to one vote a ghetto
for colored citizens and Missouri takes
it's proper place beside medieval Rus
STA.
The majority of the colored people
worked and voted against the in
famous ordinance, but it is sad to
relate that there are some cringing
colored skunks, including preachers
who for pay openly advocated the TAX
ing away of the rights of their own
fellows. ....
One of the most Infamous facts
about the matter is that many natur-
allied citizens, Germans, Russians,
Jews, Poles, Italians and others who
came to this country to find refuge
from the oppression of Europe, did
not hesitate to aid in imposing the
ghetto upon class of Americans
whose ancestors for ten generations
were born in the United. States
there are in this country according to
the census of 1910 only ATS colored
men who were born in Africa.

WORKING SEGREGATION OUT.
Now that the negro segregation or
dinance has passed, the duty of the
| citizens of St. Louis, both white and
black, is plain. 1t is to strive to carry
j out the provisions of the law with the
minimum of friction. The law con-
templates no sudden change or i'm
! mediate disturbance of relations.
The way to do this is clear, so far
as the dominant race is concerned.
The leaders of the segregation move
ment have repeatedly declared that it
was conceived in no spirit of hostility
against the negro and merely aimed
to conserve property values in man.
ner' just to both races. Nothing can
better facilitate it's operation than the
ordering of the entire relation of the
two races in the light of these ex-
pressions of good will. Now is a time
when, as never before, the members
of the black race in St. Louis should
find active support from their white
neighbors in every effort for social,
moral and economic betterment.
Recently the colored people of Saint
Louis rallied and raised a large sum
of money for a jimcrow Y. M. G. A.
(God save the name) and now they
have their reward. Segregation in
residence follows segregation in Chris
tianity(?) as sure as the night fol-
lows the day and in this instance the
inevitable came quickly.
The argument that segregation was
mot conceived in hostility and is in
the interest of the colored people is
the old lie that has been worked so
long that it is threadbare. The slave
holder represented himself as a great
Christian philanthropist who was un-
selfishly working in the interest of
the slave. No oppressive law, no mat
ter how unjust, was ever "conceived
in hostility" 1t was always in the
interest of the poor downtrodden
people,"
1t is said that the intelligent COL
ored people of Saint Louis will fight
segregation to a finish and that they
must do, for upon the proper settle
! ment of this question depends their
very existence. Segregation is spread
ing all over the country and money
must be raised to carry the question
to the Supreme Court of the United
States.
THE APPEAL hereby subscribes
five dollars to the fighting fund and
will upon demand pay that amount to
the authorized Saint Louis commit
tee or the National Association for
the Advancement of the Colored Peo-
pie if that organization will undertake
to handle the matter. Who will fol-
low suit?
