IThe pledge "to opjpose the
e!e. tion or apptiutin:eit to
politi' al office in the State of
Loui-iania of any person of
SAfrian descent" hols the
. right rinig but, unfortunately.
e it is in flagrant contradiction,
of the fundamental rule of
t, equality of the races so dear
to the Republican party, atl
co0flilts with' the de-lared
purpese of Pre.ident Roose.
'elt not to shut the door of
hope and opportunity in the
face of the colored aman: so
d that this pledge may be class.
ed as mere lbrututn fulmen.
. If these conventltioists are
1 sinicere, adl we assumne they
are. in mla king this pledge.
i theit we fear they are doomed
i to (lisajtpoiilntmelt: for as the
stream cau1ot rise higher
that its source. so they, an
infinitesimal portion of the
f great lepublican party. can.
not hope to rise above theii
padty, and substitute thei,
r proscriptive pledge for theiu
party's principle of equality.

ll. Segur of Iberia. inI the

this Nation witha man whose

(i manlike and in accord with

I conlidently hope and believe
'I will cme to pass.
t" In proof of the assertion
that Mr. Roosevelt is not sin
ete either with the colored
race or in his coulrse toward
tlhe Republicans of the Southl,
<olie has but to look back at
his action in Louisiana and
a" other Southern States. Itn
,. Alabama, durjing the early
S,ldays of his administrationl,
lie appointed men whlo rprpre
,e ented the Lily white ele
inent to fill the Federal ottices
O- in that State, and who refes
it el to allow any coloir-t1 men
iin their convention. with the
s belief that they were c'ar.il:g
ijolot the expressed wi:-i,4hs of
1 Mr. Roosevelt. Howev:-r. for
11- o11e unknown catse or Ie"a
son. he very. suldlenly and
radically ch ngel fro;it. andt
`:without jucl e orjutly pe:'n:ip-1
,l'trily remnoted tlht veiry- m10e
whom he h' but shortly ap
Ir pointed to 'gice in that State
iaandil declare~d, if not iii Words
at least by his action, that no
a flee under h administration
inl who was not willing to affi
liate with the colored man.
ie Yet, in Louisiana lie chang-,d
to, his tactics and reverted ba .k
cou his original Lily white
u!. policy firt inauguattcl inl
of Alabama, and removed all
the old-line Republicans ap
pointed bly President M1 Kin
kly, despite the fact that
Stheir official records were unn
of impeachable; and appoitedl
ri il their stead men who had
vl Ileen rabid l)emnocrats up to
the time that a I)emociatic
Cdhgress repealed the esgar
Shoiunty, when they declared
thnemselves to be National Re
iC publicans, but still Slate
o i)emiocrats, retaining onlyy
one or two, whose greed for
o' tice induced them to adopt
Lily white ideas.
re Hlowever, when Mr. Mc
y Kinley was elected P'resident,
e in 1b96, they finally declared
d themselves Lily White Re
puiblicans and sent a dtlega
etion to the Republican Na
er tional Convention at Phiila
In delphia in 1900, and !by false

suiranc~e of electing several
n. Republican Congressmen at
ir their own expense at tile en

ir they unfortnately succeeied
r in del`it wenty'tiiree out
of the forty-one members of
the 'Jomnnittee into this be

In President McKinley. as altc

Th 'hey were given the nmal
