atl (S DISPOSED TO BLAME sigs KINLEY. Editor iyi Watterson on the Race War in the Carolinas. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 15.—In the Courier-Journal this mornir leaded double column editorial on the election riots and the race war in the South. He is disposed to blame President McKinley largely, | taying at the start “The President may express such becoming horror of the race troubles | m the Carolinas as he thinks the moral or partisan exigencies of the administration require, but he can not hold himself wholly guiltless Jrom responsibility for their exist- ence. “If he wished to experiment with the negro as an officeholder, why did he not undertake a few test cases at the North, where the black popu- Yation is not so dense and, therefore, where the race friction is less acute? Bo set black over white men in the more negro ridden districts of the South is to light a torch ina powder mill. Yet in Northern communities, from which disproportionate num- bers have expelled the menace, and almost the consciousness of racial antagonism, this would be consider- ed, from the political point of view, a prudent thing to do. “Imagine a negro postmaster at Boston, or a negro Collector of the Port of New York.
