A SOUTHERN EBULLITION. A largo portion of tho Southern proBH, nntl of Southern public men, havo broken out In violent denuncia tions of President Roosevelt for Invit ing Booker T. Washington to dinner. They howl In horror at a president of tho United States thus entertaining a "nlggor." Ilnco prejudice In this country dies very slowly. Somo months ago the Tolegram pro pounded tho query: "Who 1b the most useful mnr. In tho United States?" and It suggested Washington as a man who would come as near filling the requirement of tho answer as any one. From a poor, Ignorant, friend less, homolosB boy ho has mado him self a namo that Is known throughout tho clvljlzcd world. And ho has dono this not by getting tho bettor of other pcoplo, but by making thousnnds, and indirectly millions of his own race, better peoplo. Ho Is teaching them Just what Is needful for them to leurn to work out their own salvation by intelligent, porsovcrlng Industry, by proving that thoy uro uueful, capable men and women. And In doing this Washington has Incidentally bene fited tho white race, too, and tho whole country. Ills teaching is not confined to Tiiskcgco Institute; It ex tends throughout tho land. And whllo ho has been doing this, while ho has been making a somebody out of a nobody of himself, whllo ho has been Instructing and enlightening Ills rnco and benefiting the country and tho world, what havo theso roar ers against tho president for trcatlug Washington courteously beon doing? Have thoy been heard of us benefac tors of anybody? Homo of thorn havo helped to burn "nlggorB" or havo dono nothing to prevent those horrible atro cities. Docb this make thorn bettor than Hooker T. Washington? llttlo dyo of darkneliB In tho blood, does not necessarily uiako a human being an object of aversion and con tempt. Thoro may ho a true whlto heart and soul and mind under tho Bkln. It was negrooB who woro nbout tho best soldiers on San Juan hill, us who knows bettor than President Iloosovelt? It wnB n negro who first caught tho assassin nntl tried to Bavo tho llfo of President McKlnloy. Uo caiiBo tho president treats this gen tleman, scholar nnd honorable and distinguished citizen as ho would treat a whlto man of equal merit, it dood not follow that tho president believes In absolute social equality of tho races throughout tho country. Theso South ern spitfires can bo as oxcluslvo as thoy chooso, but their outcrlcB will not frighten tho president. LI Hung Chang has ropentedly dined In tho Whlto Houso, yet nobody ' gou wm bo represented In that pro was hoard to ask: "Do you want lo ePB of (.mansion, but It doesn't want marry your daughter to u Chinaman?" Portlnnd Evening Telogrnm. A FOOL IN PRINT. "L. A. C," writing to tho Orcgonlan concerning bocIiiI nnd racial condi tions In tho South and tho offect of President Roosevelt's entertainment or uookor T. Washington, hIiowb him- . . fiolf to bo either nn nss or Impostor. There is uo posslblo oxcubo for hlB eaylng that "tho appointment of a Negro postmaster In a county-wnt town In tho South emboldens every Negro criminal In tho county." In thla nvorment ho Is plainly, simply nnd unqualifiedly a liar, It ls this typo of falsehood that does so much to maintain tho prejudice ngnlnst tho colored rnco south of Mason and Illxon'B lino." It Is nc- coptnnco of that class of fiction that1 has mndo It possible for tho whlto ' brlKnnds of tho rebel states to pursuo their brutal butcheries without vlKor- Dim protest irom too auiuoruies. sucu twaddlo Is Incendiary, "L. A, C'a" assertion that tho pres idents Blmplo net of courtesy to Hooker T. Washington "will glvo as surauco to overy black devil south of tho Ohio rlvor," Is tho product of a vicloiiB Imagination, There Is uo truth lu It. Tho Orogonlnu's correspondent says: "There" Is no reason why this should bo tho fact, it Is tho fact, con trary to reason aud without auy re gard for tho person honored." Thla is absolutely untrue;' and Tho New' Age contradicts, It from personal knowledge of tho situation. Tho Orcgonlan, which has demon strated its friendliness to tho pro gressive Negro on many occasions, re plies to tho correspondent's inaccur acy of statement and Inconsistency of Judgment quite fully and very point edly. "L. A. C." Is ovldcntly a Negro hater. Ho belongs to that class of Southerners whoso conduct toward tho progrcsslvo members of tho col ored race excites tho sanguinary con flicts between tho whites and tho blacks of tho South. Only a knavo could entertain his opinion of tho Southern situation, and only a fool would express It NEEDLESS FRICTION. It la regrettable that friction In tho city and county central commlttco lins already produced a degrco of warmth In an entirely unnecessary conflict of opinions, Judgments, Interests and policies. It was not denied that re organization of tho committee was necessary, in faco of new conditions it had to confront In what promises to bo an unusual campaign. Nor Hon. J. M. Patterson, postmaster at Tho Dalles, assumed chargo of tho should It havo been assumed that tho offlco for tho sureties of his prcde- ccssor on Decomber 27, 1000, and was result of this reformation of tho per- mndo postmaster by appointment on February 1, 1901. Ho Isa popular of sonnol of the commlttco would plcaso flc'n, nn(1 hjs administration .of tho business of tho offlco has givon him those who opposed It. Lottcra of ox- planatlons with which local publlca tlons have recently been filled explain nothing, and set forth llttlo more than 1 tho dlsplcnsuro of those who produced i them. In a gcncrnl way, however, they tend to crcnto discord In tho ... . it i committee and among Its advisers. Rather thnn to glvo It additional strength In tho pcrformnnco of work it should do In tho preparation for an ususually Important campaign, thoy suggest an element of weakness, which detracts from its ability to do tho task required. Tho creation of an advisory board was cortalnly a proper thing to do, but thoso who complain of Its person nel nro chiefly thoso who havo boon chosen to represent It. Many of those nnmoii imvn nhown nn enEorness to decline that suggcBts that thoy havo ,,, boon "flank-shot This Is n somowhnt unusual situa tion. It is embarrassing at this timo and may produco conditions under which factions may thrlvo, to tho loss and discredit of tho party. TVn on in ml Hon hnuinuoi-, la purpK- lng a conservative courso in tho mat tor, and niny succeed easily In over coming tho contusion occasioned by tho recent reorganization. OUR SHARE OF NEW TRADE.

Tho trans port Grant will como to Portland to take tho Twenty-eighth Infantry to Manila. This Is only a starter. Tho sonator has shown to tho department at Washington that Orogon has suf fered unjust discrimination. Tho business of tho states with tho Phil ippines is growing rapidly.
