Pres. Taft is “swinging the circle.”
Evidently he is trying to “square 1L”
The head waiter of the Rogers
Hotel called his waiters and asked
them their opinion of the write-up
as it appeared in the Star. We came
in for severe criticism. We pub
lished the article for those on the out
side, and it stands without success
ful contradiction. We do not give
those waiters credit fo even feigning
ignorance on subserviency, but as a
fair demonstration of that destruc
tive element, better known as ptfre
bone-heads. We have met the man
agement and, although words as
passed are too hot for print, we lived
to tell the story. The Star editor
is no hero worshipper and “Toozie”
is but one of the hotel proprietors.
There is no people in the world
which more quickly recognizes and
appreciates the qualities of frankness
and sincerity, whether they are ex
hiblted in a friend or in an opponent,
in a white man or in a black man,
than the white people of the South.
I have found that there Is a claaa
that has gained a good deal of fleet
ing popularity for possessing what was
supposed to be courage iff cursing and
abusing all classes of Southern white
people on all possible occasions. But
as I have watched the careers of this
class of Negroes in practically every
case their popularity and influence
with the masses of colored people
have not been lasting.

World's Work.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A SUB
SCRIBER?
A court decision has lately been
rendered in Massachusetts on what
constitutes a subscriber.
The judge firmly believed that a
man who received the paper, although
he never subscribed for It, la entitled
to pay. James Thompson moved,
and 'William Robinson took Imme
diate possession, and received and ac
cepted a weekly newspaper that was
delivered to him through the malls
every week. The goodnature* editor
sent accounts frequently, hut no at
tention was paid to them by Mr. Rob
inson. Finally there was a day of
reckoning. Robinson had reeetved
the paper for some time, he informed
the oollector, but he said that he
never subscribed and declined to pay
for it. The judge personally ques
tioned the defendant, who said that
he read and made use of it and was
receiving the accounts, whloh were
frequently enclosed in the paper.
Judgment was rendered in favor of
the newspaper.
The judge was severe in his criti
cism of people who are receiving pa
pers and do not think it worth while
to pay for what they receive and
make use of it as an act of dishon
esty, he said one should acquaint the
publisher and pay for what numbers
he receives.—X.

Refering to our article of last issue
under the caption of “▲ Notorious
Dive” we will again give notice that
we will continue to print the news
about Curley’s place or any other
without fear of intimidation, and deal
fairly with all whose affairs come
within the scope of public discus
alone. It is our duty to inform our
readers for their personal welfare
and the general social welfare of the
community. Such is our mission,
founded on these principles, which
we will follow and defend, without
hesitation, and fearless of factions or
individuals.
Investigation is being made by
representative men of the charges of
discrimination against Negroes In
the Unique Thbatre. Maybe the
Rogers Hotel waiters can settle the
question.
There has been more than 1,000 de
positors registered at the Postal Sav
ings Bank in St Paul—one tenth of
the depositors were Negroes.
