Prejudice Should fa Respected.
There are negro editors who display
more sense about the appointment of
negroes to office thsn do some of the
■white editors One such conducts the
Indianapolis Freeman, and “doubts
the propriety of the administration
appointing colored men to positions
where prejudice is high and protection
inadequate.” The whole argument
against tbs appointment of negroes,
except where their appointment is
desired by the patrons of the office, is
summed up in the very words preju
dice and protection, here used. No
man should ever be named by the fed
eral government for postmaster io any
locality when there is a prejudice
against him among the people whom
he must serve, and when be requires
protection because of such prejudice.
