SUBSCRIPTION. On Year, payable In advance 92.00 MMliSgMltlf8t8e I U00KI3H T. WASHINGTON SPEAKS Dr. Hooker T. Washington, prosfdent of tho Afro-American Business Men's League, In a speech delivered at New York recently mndo tho following ro marks nnent tho raco question: In this season of disturbance and excitement, If others yield to tho temp tation of losing control of tholr Judg ment nnd glvo way to passion nnrt prejudice, lot us, as a raco, teach tho world that wo huvo learned tho great losson of calmness and self-control, nnd that wo aro determined to bo gov erned by reason rather than by feel ing. Our victories In tho past have como to us through our ability to bo calm and patient, often whllo endur ing gicat wrong. If others would break tho law and tramplo It undor foot let us keep nnd respect It and tench our children to follow our ex nmplo. In this connection I repeat what I havo uttcrod on n recent occasion: every lota of Inlluenco that wo possess should bo used to get rid of tho crim inal and loafing element of our pcoplo and to malco docent, law-abiding citi zens, To tho members of my raco who ro Hldo In tho Northern stntes, let mo utter tho caution that In your enthu siastic doslro to bo of Bervlco to breth ren In tho South you do not mako tholr path mora thorny or dlfllcult by rash utterances. Iloforo giving ndvlco to tho Negro In tho South, tho Negro In tho North should bo vory suro what ho advlscH Is that which ho himself would bo willing to tnko Into tho heart of tho South nnd put Into prnctlco. I3o careful not to assist In lighting n tiro which you will hnvo no ability to put out. Many think that tho problom with which wo aro grappling will bo better solved by Inducing millions of our pco plu to leave tho South for rcsldonco In tho North, but I warn you that, In stead of this bolng a solution, It will but ndd to tho complicity of tho sit uation, Tho Indlscrlmlnnto condemnation of nil whlto peoplo on tho part of any mombor of our raco Ih n suicidal and dangerous policy. Wo must learn to dlscrlmlnnto. Wo havo strong frlonds both in tho South and In tho North, nnd wo should omphnslzo and magnify tho oftorlH of our friends mora than that of thoso who wish us ovll. Tho country must nlso learn to dif ferentiate between black peoplo. It is n mlstnko to placo all In tho namo clnsa when referring to labor, morality or gonoral conduct. Thoro Ih a vIcIoub class that disgraces us; there la nlHO u worthy class which should always recolvo commendation. Further, wo must frankly face tho fact Hint tho great body of our peoplo aro to dwell In tho South, and any policy that docs not seek to hnrmonlzo tho two racca nnd cement them Is unwlsa nnd dan gerous, Creation construction In tho mater ial, civic, educational, mornl and ro llgloua world Is what makes races great. Any child can cry and fret, but It requires a full-grown man to cronto to construct. HELP THE GOOD CAUSE. Tho Y. M. nnd Y. W. C. A. of Port land havo undertaken tho hugo tnBk of raising 3G0,000 for tho purchase of a now homo to bo used Jointly by both organizations. Tho peoplo of this city havo never been called upon to con tribute money to a better causo and wo hopo that beforo tho canvass Is closed and tho full amount Is raised that somo of our well-to-do colored citizens will glvo a substantial subscription. TIicto aro many reasons why this work should bo encouraged by us, but principally because no class distinc tion or discrimination of any- kind Is tolerated by thoso truly Christian In stitutions.

Notwithstanding tho Associated Press correspondent's announcement that P. S.

Bourne, Jr., to the United States senate, it has been said that our opposition to Mr. Bourne Is In spired by prJudlce, and that we can give no good reason for opposing him Ince he was regularly named by the republican voters for the office. We opposed Mr. Bourne during the primaries for the reason that we knew him to be unfit for the high office to which he aspired. First That he Is not a loyal and consistent republican. Second That he Is a traitor and political black-leg. Third That he could not'be depend ed upon to support Roosevelt. If he had been a loyal and consistent republican he would not have deserted his party In the hour of Its dire dis tress, when the blight of Bryanlsm and populism overshadowed the country In 1006. But as a true and loyal repub; Mean would have put self' aside and rendered whatever service he could for his party and his republican friends. If Bourne's will had prevailed and Bryan had been elected who can ay that there would have been today a strong, .Invincible republican party In Oregon to honor him for his perfidy. The legislative- session of 1895 was the most spectacular In the history of Oregon and the King Pin of that see Ion was J. Bourne Jr., whose mat odorous record is even yet a stench In the nostrils of decent people, with a goodly supply of money and other cor rupting Influences the trick of thwart Ing the will of the. people and debauch ing the honor of the citizenry was the special mission of this political monte bank, who, now, ten short years after- LoDs-Bzlafeat Prejudice Than Kkltned. No other race has been so vilified aa the Jew. Hatred for Hebrews has been endemic In Europe since the Dark Ages, and even to-day In France and Germany 'the nntl-Semltlc movements have considerable strength. How can this bo? Is tho feeling a survival of anger at a raco which rejected Jesus? Or Is It based on despcrato hostility toward a race which can succeed In business whero a Gentllo falls? The Iter. Dr. S. Bchulman of tho Temple Beth-El, New York City, In a recent sermon sought to answer these questions. Part of his dlscourso wo quote : - Wo nro tho victims of tho world's literature, of Its prevailing creed, and tho popular Judgment Tho greatest master In tho world's literature, seek ing a typo that on account of peculiar conditions and circumstances could stand for cruel hatred and Implncablo revenge, deliberately changed tho con tents of a story and mndo Sbylock the Jow tho embodiment of Inhuman re venge. Tho poet must havo felt that If ever In a human soul thero could arlso such unyielding hato as he desired to por tray, It might, in a sense, bo Justified In ono whoso heart rankled with the memories of ages of persecution nnd unjust hatred to which his raco had been subjected. Hero was one, tho poet seemed to say, who could well execute the vil lainies he had been taught Ho there fore produced a character dramatically consistent but at tho samo tltno ho did an everlasting Injury to the Jow be causo bo 'produced a character alto gether historically untruo. The Jow Is anything but vlndlctivo; ho forjob1 injuries reauiiy; mat is wny lie is so optimistic; ho has a horror of shedding blood, and whatever vices tho .Tow may bo capablo of, the ono of ferocious cru elty cannot bo saddled upon him. Nevertheless, tho word Sbylock has become In English siecch synonymous with everything that Is bad. This In justice In llteraturo will persist until uomu great genius possessing tho broad mindedness of a Leasing and tho dra matic power of n Shakspeuro shnll arlso among English-speaking pcoplo mid cronto an 'English Nathan tho Wise. Tho western world's creed centers. In an ovent which, strictly speaking, .be longs to the sniiiu category as thut of tho killing of Socrntes, tho burning of Giordano Ilruno, nnd of Hervctus. Thus classic Greek, Catholic and Protestant were nil equally guilty of sacrificing tho best of their time. Tho progress of mankind hns, sad to say, often been purchased by tho martyrdom of sqmo of tho noblest men that walked on earth. Yot It Is tho Jowlsh peoplo that have been singled out to 'bo hold up to the world as Dolcldes, and ovcry child at the time when tho soul Is most recop tlvo Is Inoculated with an antipathy against every living Jow beonuso of an ovent that took 'placo nluotcen hundrei. yours ago. It Is therefore no wonder that the world Is prejudiced against the Jew. Tho tendency of tho popular Judgment Is to magnify his faults and minimize his virtues. Ho Is, In plain words, the victim of n traditional violation of the Ninth Commandment Ho has to provo that ho Is good; tho assumption always Is that ho Is bait To such an extent Is tho thought and feeling of tho average man pervaded by this prejudice against tho-Jow that It oven xiqIhoiim, tbo minds of many Jows themselves who havo not given serious thought to Jew and Judaism.
