Baltimore Md. Oct. . Senator
(rorman In -a speech delivered recent-
ly at Highland brande.i President
Roosevelt aa the "csar" and "emperor"
ot politics and bitterly denounced iilu
for meddling with affairs in Maryland.
The speech has attracted great In-
terest and some of Senator Gorman's
utterant are regarded as very sen-
national and unusual. 4
Among other things Gormanfottnl:
"Unfortunately the presidei .pf tne
United States has forced Uits race
issue to the front. Tho Anglo-Saxons
made the laws. They conquered tho
Indians. No other race but the whlto
race shall ever have possession of this
country. That sensible man ot the
colored race Booker T. Washington
has given his people some good nd-
vice. He Ires told them that politics
demoralizes them.
"I speak of the president of the
United States with the greatest res-
pect as all should. I criticise his pub-
lic acts because his acts and his
speech go from ouc end of the coun-
try to the other and determine for-
eign affairs. The white men ot the
south who ttro roputahle men of that
section the thoughtful mou of tho
noi th know that no greator crlnio was
evor perpetrated on this country than

"With the impetuosity hardly worthy
of a youth In a small community tho
president of the United States sud-
denly one morning brought to tho
front this race question which tho
people wero settling quietly and or-
derly by Inviting Bookor Washington
to (ifne with him in tho whlto house.
"This act was Interproted .by the
whole colored race as moaning not
only political but social equality of
the two races. It now confronts us to
deal with this question. Tho presi-
dent of tho United States Invitod tho
Republican candidate for governor of
Maryland to dine with him and to oc-
cupy the same sett which was prob-
ably occupied by Bookor Washington.
I tell you that no liberty' riofnfety
remains whon you. have a dictator or
a czar or an emperor in Washington
who can send for Marylandera and tell
them what he wurfte done - Ha tells

lish social equality of tho two rac.es."
