NATIONAL DEGENERACY.

and Dsspised Hypocrisy.
The speech Of Abraham Lin
Z coin In 1855 regarding the polit-
zeal situation and the tendency
to disregard the rights Of human
beings to life. liberty and the
pursuit of happiness is striking
" applicable to the condition Of
affairs in this country at the
present time.
Mr.. Lincoln said:
Il am not a Know Nothing
that Ia certain. How could I be?
How can any one who abhors
the oppression Of the Negroes
be in favor Of degrading classes
Of white people? Our progress
in degeneracy appears to me to
be pretty rapid As a nation we
began by declaring that all men
are created equal
I'VE now practically read 1t.
All men are created equal ex-

Nothings get control 1t will read.

New Movement For Race Segregation.
There has recently been some talk
Of appointing capable physicians Of our
race as health officers in the larger
cities to administer to the needs Of the
colored population exclusively. The
idea does not meet the general approx
al Of the race. and we believe that few
reputable physicians among the color
ed people would accept an appointment
with segregation as its chief object.
The fact that the colored race does not
want any special recognition Of the
kind mentioned ought to be well known
to public officials ct this stage Of our
progress and citizenship. In all mat
tiers Of public service, conveyance and
comfort the colored people simply want
that which Is due them In common
with all the other races which make up
our country's citizenship.

Miss Mary White Ovington, the well
known social service leader in Brook.
Ign, has been appointed secretary for
the time being Of the National Associ-
alton For the Advancement of Colored
People. Miss Ovington succeeds Miss
May Childs Nerney. who resigned the
position at the January meeting Of the
association to enter another line OF
work. Miss Nerney had been secretary
for three years and half, during
which time she rendered valuable serv.
ice to the organization. She knew the
work thoroughly, and It was with re-
gret that the association accepted her
resignation. However. on account Of
Miss Ovington's deep interest In the
association, coupled with her knOwl.
edge of its aims and needs, the work
will not suffer any setback. Miss
Ovington Is one Of the vice presidents
Of the association.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
TASK FOR THE NATIONS
Ray stannard Bakers Plea For
Human Brotherhood.

human Brotherhood.
Ray Stannard Baker In a re-
cent issue Of the American Mag
azine has the following to say
about prejudice of one race
against another:
"Why will men not see that
there can be no true civilization
while any men In the world are
left out of 1t and that no race and
no nation can 60 far forward
while other races and nations
lag behind?
LET the white person again

heel! (Say. which Is trodden I'M
der heel after ain
1T Is not enough that we give
the alien nations our learning,
our religion. our science. What
signify all these things? Are
we hurt by giving them? Are
we not, on the contrary, the ma
terial gamers? No; We must be
prepared to 60 further than that,
else we have not learned the
fundamental concept Of religion.
ut IL not the great task Of any
nation that it shall remain pure
or white or learned or that Il
shall assure to its posterity the
possession of land and comfort,
though this has been the belief
and the doom of every arist0cra-
cy from the beginning Of time.
The great task Of every ad-
vanced race or nation is to bring
more love. more light. into the
world.
"A stand for racial aristocracy
means war. hatred, barren ex-
clusiveness and finally degenera-
don and failure; a stand for "a
cial democracy and brotherhood
means love in the world. friend
nness. sacrifice. new fertility. a
wider sweep for faith and final
triumph. Individuals may suffer
in the process. nations may per-
ish, but civiliza ton. the kingdom

thing for Cinnamon or Hindns
or for our own poor. except the
one essential thing. Yes. educate

ton against the Colored People
which grows out of race prejudice.
