Carrying the Color Line.
(FrOm the New York AgeN

There is tendency among the mem.
Ders Of the race to be over sensitive on
the subject of color. This tendency is
OF course excusable to a certain ex-
tent, because of the fact that the mat
ter OF color is so frequently thrust
upon them. But it would be the part
I'of wisdom and good policy to forget
the fact of color when possible and to
regard themselves merely as Ameri-
cans and good citizens. a-'~.--~s ..~.s .-.
Such an attitude maintained with
modesty and dignity would Of time
d1sarm the outcropping of prejudice
based solely upon color, and would in
sure the individual the same treat
ment accorded people of other races.
''aTrv'ne the color line as chip on
the shoulder is sure way of provok-
ing resentment on the part of the
other fellow, while calm and I'M
concerned demeanor, with proper in
sistence on the same sort of treatment
and accommodations furnished the
public in general is more likely to win
acceptance and secure proper recogni-
ton. nv ~ ~ -
Colored people should endeavor to
forget their color in public places and
regard themselves solely as an in
tegral part of the body polite, with
the same rights and privileges and the
same duties and responsibilities as
any other class of citizens. New York
is good place to practice such pol
icy as cosmopolitan city where every
person is SO intent on his own pursuits,
that so long as the other man or
woman does not tread on his toes, he
or she can go his own gait unmolested.
The public places and conveyances
are open to all, with the provision that
each persons rights end where his
neighbours begin. So there is no ne
cessity to faunt the color line in your
neighbours face, so long as he is in
different to your color and only asks
that you do not infringe on his rights.

CAUSE OF CAPITAL RIOT

Last year there were race riots at
Washington, d. c. The Washington
correspondents of the various u. s.
dailies endeavored to make it appear
that the whole negro" male popula-
ton of Washington was bent on as
saulting white women. ..~ ..
Now comes William Randolph Camp
bell, "mdlatto," who confesses that
he alone committed the crimes which
precipitated the riots. According to
his confession, he attacked four white
women, and he also was guilty of a
criminal assault on Miss Louise Sim
mons, colored school teacher, for
which a negro" was condemned to die
and instead was given forty.tive years
in the Federal prison at Atlanta, Ga.
In reporting Simmons crimes, nearly
all of the papers referred to him as
NEGRO" but it is now shown that
he was half white. 49,. Z

lican National Committee in the pres
ent campaign, THE APPEAL does not
hesitate to. say that it is Infamous and
should be reversed Immediately. It
should not only be reversed, but wide
publicity should be given to the fact of
it's reversal. Further, proof should be
given that it really has been changed
by having good colored speakers ap-
pear and address all Of the large meet
ings in the large cities of the country.
There is no necessity for segre-
gated colored bureau, and in spite of
the fact that some, who have axes to
grind, favor it, it's formation is really
an insult to the party loyalty of the
colored people. There might be some
excuse for organizing a foreign Ian
guage division for the purpose of
reaching naturalized Americans who
have limited knowledge of the En-
glish language. All other Americans,
either naturalized or native born of
English, Scottish, Irish, French, Ger
man, Spanish or other. descent, who
speak English, will do business through
the regularly constituted bureaus at
the national headquarters.
And it is said that colored women
voters will not be taken. care of in
the regular women's department Of
the Republican National Committee,
where they logically belong, but will
be turned over to the "colored' bureau.
The colored people of this country
are not NATURAL1ZED, they are
NATIVE BORN AMERICANS, and En-.
glish is their mother tongue. Accord
ing to the census Of 1910, only 1876 of
the so-called colored people in the
United States were born in Africa.
Having lived in America for ten or
twelve generations, the colored people
have a clearer idea of real American
ism than the millions of foreigners
who have come later and have done
less for the country. And they feel
that they are entitled to the rights of
citizenship in all their fullness.
Now is the time to find out what
the party and it's nominees will do.
It will be fatal to wait until after the
election to make demands So shrew6
politician as Henry Lincoln Johnson
knows that arrangements must be
made in advance. He arranged to
have himself elected national commit
:eeman early In the game and then,
when prominent Republicans tried to
get him out they were unable to do so.
If he had delayed he might not now be

"GENTLEMEN OF THE MINIMUM"

In 1917 during the world war, num-

they were asked what they wanted.
The colored men drew up resolutions
stating that they really wanted moth
ing, that's what they said amounted to.
THE APPEAL, the Boston Guardian
and few other papers, under the
head of Gentlemen of the Minimum"
criticised their action and stated that
that was the proper time to demand
the abolition of Jmcrowism in the
army and if it was not done at that
time, the, future would show that
great mistake had been made.
