The time has come when our white friends should cease censuring the entire negro race for the mistakes or short coinings of one or two individual members of the race. The Washington Ilee, our esteemed contemporary, has reached the new Senator from Missouri, William War ner. It gives the Senator a very flat tering sketch. All true however, Senator Warner Is a man among men, a lawyer of note and a statesman of tin.' highest rank. FORTY YEARS OF FREEDOM. The Negro Race Problem. Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than these people are to be free, nor Is it less certain that the two races, equally free, cannot live In the same government. This was the prophecy of Thomas Jefferson. writing in IS'I, in the evening of his j long life, and onlv five years before j his death. l,oug since has the first part of the prediction been filled; it j came forty years after he wrote amid the thunders and lightnings of the civil war. Since then another forty years have nearly passed away and ! the nation is face to face with the quest ion "Can two races equally free, live in the same government?" It is thi' very greatest problem that con fronts the Republic in these opening years of the new century, and It will require the united efforts of nil the people to find the right solution to it. The day Is gone, and. In Interest of both races, it is well that is should be so. Democrats and Republicans have now an equal interest In formulating ihe conditions which shall retrieve whatever errors may have been com mitted and produce policies under the operations of which social order shall be concerned and our common civiliza tion maintained. The burdens ot re sponsibility Is largely upon the South, but the South should not be left to struggle under it unaided by the other sections of the I'nlon, in which tho end Is less and consequently more easily dealt with. We reproduce the opening Idea of T.hos. White, In the Freeman, on tho above subject. Less a woman has to complain about the more she complains. A lot of people never think of their religion until they hear the church bells ringing. AN UPRISING IN 8HANQHAI. ! Two Foreigner Killed and Many In. I jured in the Chinese City, j WaHiilngtoti.

Blow Too Much hor Pat. While Pat Kern, a sturdy young Irishman of Philadelphia, was stand ing on a ladder cleaning windows a lawyer approached and called out to him that an uncle living in Ireland had died, leaving him 1100,000.
