Government guarantees each citizen
equal rights, But in spite Of this we
are jim -CrowcJ and segregated in
other ways by the States and private
parties. If We would stop to think we
would rcIl'2r that we arc helping to
Scgregatr ourselves.
WHEREIN we purchase goods at Il store
that torhid> us from being served at
the soda fountain or in the cafeteria
are we not encouraging them to jim
Crow us? We are also encouraging
the same thing when we patronizc the
Theatres and Movies run by them.
We could name other instances
where we are helping to scgrrgatc our
selves. 1t is not necessary to patro.-
ME these places and be jim -Crowed
for if the stores Of our Race cannot
furnish our wants the stores that
do not Scgrcgate us can.
But We have TO ride on street cars
and have our rights cnfringcd upon
50 let us resolve to be segregated
where we cannot help ourselves only
ana then we can fight that Scgrcga

In other words let us Boy Cott
places that bar us from all Of its ser

POLICEMAN FINED FOR

Danvillc. Va, April 3.--Upon max.
ing inquiry today as to the cause of
diSSat sfaCtion among the Danvillc DO
l.cemcn. Mayor Wooding was told
that nine Of the men would resign a,
the beginning of May. One of the Off
GERS tod the Mayor in court that there
was much dissatisfaction and that
they were tired of being abused. The
men, he continued resented being fin
ed Tor using clubs when Negroes who
attack them are dealt with lenicntly.
The Mayor instructed the chief of po
lice to secure the names of the dissat
isfied men. The situation arcse a few
hours after Patrolmun S. w BowlcS

the trouble, said that he had no apollo

nor from the labor organizations OF
the country, but they have strivon
I" Smoolho vvcr and make excuses for
1t.
The only great white American, n
great big hearted man to publicly pro
test against this affair was EX-Prcsi
dent, T. Roosevelt. who brought his
test In Carnegie hall. explaining the
shame of America at the time that
she was giving wealth and her best
blood to buy democracy in Europe to
DC silent ut the outrage of East ST.
Louis. This protest cnraged the Presi
dent OF the American Federation of
Labor. And even the New York Tim.
es protest against Roosevelt for
RAISING the question at such n time
and place. After all it was nothing
but Negro blood and why make such
fuss about ii?
We Jews can only feel the Ncgro's
pain. for we ourselves for generations
nave long endured what the Negro is
now enduring. The Negroes trouble
makes us thing about our own condi
ton. II shows us that liberty on pa
per has no worth if ii is II OF from Il
lull heart. The Jews liberty in Eng
land and America is such a thing that
man has suspicion Of what has been
brought out by practical lie. The
liberty of the Jews in Romania has
remained on paper because the peo
pie nave never consented. The Jows
Ill Russia have necvr enjoyed full
liberty.
Time only will answer this ques-
ton.

'From Jewish Gazette, July. 1910
! ""ithout musicl without wordsa
without force. and without rcsolu-
tons. ON Saturday they marched
through Ffth Ave. The procession
wna quiet protest from the Negro
against the unrightcousneSs that is
practiced against them. a protest
against jim cars against segre
cation. lynching and whole sale mur
dcring of Their people, such as occurr
ed i'll Waco. Memphis and East st.
Louis. The procession made a great
Impression because it was quiet
protest. 1t touched all Intelligent
people At the heart, even more than
all speeches and resolutions could
have done.
That was 4 protest OF the whole
race against unrightdousncSs and
prosecutions, which the race has cn
durrd without Il murmur and without
sin committed against any one. Every
white man who saw the procession
turned red in tho face and let his
countcnancc fall because ho lives in
such times lrd such prosecutions. And
every Jewish heart jumped more
than others. as his eyes flashcd upon
the banners passing by him, for he
was thinking OF the unrightcousncs
that is done this race. For who o;hcr

prosecutions: who other than Jews
