SPEAK KINDLY TO THE CoLoRED MAN.
Lewis and Henry Canter, of Lawrence
county, Ohio. father and son, were tried
in the United States Court at Cincinnati
last week, before Judge Leavctt, on u
charge of preventing 4 colored man from
voting. This is the first tlial had under
the odious law of Congress. 1t appears
that Lewis spoke rudely to couple OF
colorcd men who were approaching the
polls on election day. He should not
have talked SO harshly to the '.nation's
wards" Ii he wanted TO swear at
anybody he should have directed his
remarks to some poor white man, aud the
"nation" would have overlooked the
matter, and not dealt SO cruelty with him.
AS il was, the son was acquitted, and
Lewis Canter, for hurting the feelings OF
Jupiter. Wilkinson and his sable companion,
is to be confined one month in the Law
renee county Jail. Being Il poor man, the
fine of 5000 was mercitully RENTED. Let
this be u warning. Hencelorth remember
the 18th amendment, and speak in gentle
tones to the African on election day. Ii
you should from any cause become angry,
address your remarks to white man, and
you will not be punished. Portsmouth
