Committed to Social Equality.
From the Augusta Chronicle.
The Washington Post is as¬
suredly to be regarded as one of
the most reliable and authentic
daily publications in this country.
Anything that appears in its col¬
umns. therefore, may be consid¬
ered as genuine, and that being
the case the recent letter from a
colored man, Henry S- Baker,
may be taken as a simon pure
document, and the communica¬
tion unquestionably owes its
origin to Mr. Roosevelt’s Four¬
teenth Amendment Plank in the
Republican platform and that
same gentleman’s black-and-tan
policy that he has impressed so
conspicuously the country at
large.
Let the country at large take
note of it.
The letter referred to is to this
©ff act•:
Editor Post; As a colored
man I wish to call attention to
the difference between the Re¬
publican and the Democratic na¬
tional conventions. At the Re¬
publican convention the colored
man was treated as a companion,
friend, and brother. There he
was made to feel as if he were not
only a political, but a social
equal. The delegates followed
the advice and example of our
beloved President Theodore
Roosevelt, who teaches that the
colored man deserves to be treat¬
ed as a social equal. To empha¬
size this fact he had the courage
to have at his table Prof. Booker
T. Wasnington. If Roosevelt is
elected it will so encourage the
colored men that we will demand
that Prof. Booker Washington
shall be the Republican candi¬
date for Vice-President in 1908.
Let not my eclored brethren
forget that scene in the Republi¬
can convention when a beauti¬
ful white girl was placed upon
the stage, and by her side a ne¬
gro boy. They then placed flags
in their hands and allowed them
to lead the cheering, tnus making
the first and grandest example of
the equality of the races that his¬
tory records.
In the Democratic convention
there was not a single colored
man. It was in word and indeed
a white man’s convention of a
white man’s party. All hail to
Roosevelt, who has given the
poor negro so much to encourage
him to persist in his political and
social rights.
Henry S. Baker.
The Chronicle yields to no one
in its kindly feeling toward the
negro—in hisr proper sphere.
We have written repeatedly in
admiration of Booker Washing¬
ton and his work, which is not to
teach social equality, but indus¬
trial skill.
The spectacular proceeding at
Chicago that Baker glories in,
and the whole trend of president
Roosevelt’s actions and utter¬
ances, as well as the Republican
platform’s declaration, have all
been based upon the idea of so¬
cial equality.
There was no political signifi¬
cance in the mutual flag waving
of Jim Blaine Caslun and the lit¬
tle white girl—their fathers, white
and black, fully intended to vote
the same (Republican) ticket,
anyway, whether this dramatic
posing of the youngsters had tak¬
en place or not.
The applause that greeted the
couple could, therefore, have por¬
tended only a hearty approval of
the social meeting on an equal
plane of the two races.
We simply call this fact and
Baker’s letter to the attention of
Southern readers, as well as those
in the North who are not yet pre¬
pared to take the radical step for
which President Roosevelt and
the Republican party stands.
Apropos to the Elk's meeting
in Cincinnatti recenty, an ex¬
change quotes this excerpt from
the creed of that order which oth¬
ers might adopt with profit and
pleasure, both to themselves and
to others;
“Don’t keep the alabaster boxes
of your love and tenderness seal¬
ed up until your friends are dead.
Fill their lives with sweetness.
Speak approving, cheering words
while their hearts can be thrilled
and made happier, the kind
things you meant to say when
they were gone, say before they
go. The flowers you meant to
send for their coffins, send to
brighten and sweeten their homes
before they leave them. If my
friends have any alabaster boxes
laid awav, full of fragrant per¬
fumes of sympathy and affection,
which they intend to break over
my body, I would rather they
would bring them out in my
weary, troubled hours and open
them that I may be refreshed and
cheered while I need them.'’
Suicide Prevented.
The startling -announcement
that a preventive of suicide had
been discovered will interest
many. A run down system, or
despondency invariably precedes
suicide and something has been
found that will prevent that con¬
dition which makes suicide likely.
