My Dear Mr. Griffin: I wns grieved nt tho sad occurrence of yesterday, but you know that a bar tender docs not represent tho senti ment of tho fair minded citizens of tho United Stntcs. I had tho honor nnd plcnsuro of drinking with you In tho finest bur In tho country, tho Palmer Houso, Chi cago, whero tho foremost men of tho In ml gather and as nt San Junn tlicro wns no question of your color. Ro member brother, that In ovory strug glo nur country hns had tho black man has stood shoulder to shoulder with his whlto comrades and tho honors wcro nlwayB equnl tho black soldier took nn nctlvo part In overy bnttlo solgo nnd snlly of tho great rebellion nt Richmond, Petersburg and Vlcksburg, when tho nrtlllery of tho South leveled with tho most deadly precision of modern scienco played upon them (when to hesitato for a moment wns to lose) tho black mnn flinched not, but stood llko n rock for tho salvation of tho union, whero bullets showered and steel was red. At San Juan their steadiness and bravory won tho pres idency for Roosevelt. Your peoplo fought for their birthright, tho grand est in tho world, n citizenship In llifs glorious country. Your progressive neBs during tho past fifty yenra stamp your peoplo ns men of both hrnlns nnd brawn. Extending you my slncorest sym pathy, I am your friend, PAUL STRAIN. YOUNG FOLKS PROTEST. Dear Editor: Allow me space In your paper to write a note to tho edi tor of the hotel notes. In behalf of tho young ladlcn nnd gentlemen of this city, I wish to enter n protest against tho use of tho word "kindergarten." I think If ho fully understood tho meaning of the word, ho would not uso It. Tho word Is tnken from tho German language. If tho rest of tho peoplo of Port land would do as well ns tho Lndd estate did, tho Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. ( Ben Chandler of Portland, Burr Wll C. A. would raise tho desired $360,000 wero to escort Mrs. GanB to tho nft crnoon's entertainment. Columbia, Cans' training quarters and hotel, is three mlleB froni Gold fleld. Thero nro no street cars and nutomobilcs and busses nro the only menus of transportation. The former rent for $60 n day to whites nnd any placo from $1,000 to $10,000,000 to col ored folks. Tex Rlcknrd. however. obviated this trifling Inconvenience by courteously placing at tho disposal of Mrs. GanB pnrty one of his And cars. easily. Again, In tho mntter of tho Cuban Imbroglio, President Roosovclt has shown that ho knows tho right thing to do in an emergency. Prohibiting men from playing n so ciable gamo of cards for n cigar or glass of beer Is carrying reform to nn unrcnsonnblo degree. Tho cntrnnco of tho Portlnnd & So- nttlo rond Into this city should bo encouraged In ovory posslblo way. Tho exposition in Scnttlo In 1907 will undoubtedly bo n hummer. They do things up there. Joo Day seems to bo ablo to work better for a prlvato individual than for tho city. In tho light of events Stntomont No. 1 looks rather silly. s&ec&sxsx&ixssaQiii&t OUR CHICAGO LETTER !

Mr. John G.

Joo, as the world knows, won tho fight on n foul, after tho meanest, low est, nnd most despornto tricks over witnessed In n ring on tho part of Nelson, nnd per contra tho most scien tific, sportsmnnly, and gentlemanly conduct over witnessed In tho nrenn on tho part of tho champion. In tho enrly part of tho first caste prejudice especially from tho lower classes, demonstrated Itself by tho vicious out cries. "Kill tho Nigger!" "Break his neck!" "Bit him I" "Kick him!" wero tho particular selections of refined de mands. Bnttllng Nelson tried to com ply with ovory ono of thorn. Ho would hnvo succeeded but for tho marvelous cleverness of tho parfect mnchlno com bating him. Through tho long drawn out contest of forty-two rounds Joo mnlntnlncd his equilibrium. Ho wns Boroly tempted to resort to tho most foul and vicious Indies, but llko tho truo gontlcmnnly sport that ho Is, ho refrained from anything llko bad behavior. His con duct gradually won tho lower element of tho spectators. "Kill the Nigger!" was "soft-pedaled," nnd choors for Chnmplou Onns were tho tocsin, oven from Nelson's nbottors. This was tho fight. Wo returned to Goldfleld wo col ored folks I mean nnd $7C lunches wcro changed to Invitations; $160 drinks wero supplnntcd by posltlvo demnnds to enter nnd enjoy them. "Shines" woro guests of tho town. Tho victory that Oans won In tho ring wns nothing compnrcd to tho victory ho had won for his race. As a writer In ono of tho dnlly papers said: "A" Nig ger had to show n whlto man how to bo n gentleman." Concluding, I want to ropcat tho query: Is a Negro fighter nny .moral or commorclal good to his race? Could a colored minister, orntor, or editor have accomplished in n fow hours In their soparnto or combined professions whnt Gnns did In tho same length of tlmo? I think not. NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS.
