the Roosevelt campaign bu-
that they were Intended to
the President with the
ig masses. The Telegraph
ted this aa likely more than
\ ne K ro to the Washington Pont which
haa attracted so much attention, for
all efforts to explain It away will be
useless. They have scoffed at the
charge that the President's rourse en
courages the negroes to expect “social
equality,” or, ac It would be more ac
curate to say, the obliteration of the
color line, and yet thla man Baker in
his letter to the Poat says In ao many
words that thla la precisely what the
people of hi* race are led to expect
He say a that at the Republican na
tions] convention the delegates follow
ed the advice and example of “our be
loved president" and made the negroes
present feel not only political “but so
cial equals". Ha says that a “beauti
ful white girl was placed on the stage
and by her aide a negro boy“, that these
were allowed to lead in the cheering,
and that thua waa presented “the first
and grandest example of the equality
of the races that history records." Fin
ally, this frank writer asserts, “if
Roosevelt la elected It will no encourage
the colored men that we will demand
that Prof. Booker Washington shall
be the Republican candidate for vice-
president in 1»0S." He doea not add
that four ytara later a black man for
president will be demanded, but this Is
evidently In his mind.
Whatever Mr. Roosevelt may or may
not have Intended from the outset, he
has by hla course encouraged the new
generation of negroes to expect not
merely equal political rights but the
absolute obliteration of the color line
ery walk of life.. The Telegraph
stands for equal rights before the law
at all the races of man, but contends
that separata development on the tvyo
aides of a color line la necessary and
beat for all concerned. A * color or
race line of separation la Inevitable,
Is the result of nature's own decree,
and whoever attempts to break It down
not only flouts reaaon and common
sense but defies nature Itself.

Of course. It la easy to surmise rea

leader of Tammany under existing
conditions should appear to sulk—
which in plain language means an Im

ticket. The attitude may lay a working
basis for compromise, for concessions
In the way of state nominations, pat
ronage, promises, and so on.
But Tammany cannot afTord to take
that position toward the regularly
nominated candidate of the Democratic
party for president. The reasons are
obvious and are supplied by Tamma
ny’* principle of existence ns a political
organization and Tammany's whole
history.
The American, as a Democratic
newspaper, anxious for Democratic
success at the polls in November, ad

of Tammany, to abandon his posture of
hostility to the head of the Democratic

from fifty to two hundred head of hogs
each. At the present price of pork, thla
Is a fine.money crop.
The corn crop is also a record break
er. The fields look Ilka the fields out
West. The seasons hav^ been perfect
for com and the crop is made nnd tho
fodder ts being pulled. These two cropo
alone made the farmers In this section
feel good, but there are other things
that make them Jubilant over the out

Is excellent nnd price* for all of these
things are high. Melon* brought good
price* and left a good wad of money in
the pockets of the shippers.
