to the Obsrrvant reader, must afford

crimes occurred on Southern soil,
and naturally force themselves pre-
eminently on the Southern mind.
What conclusions can lie adduced
as to their cause or consequence,
after careful consideration Is the
human race progressing in rice y.
Wherever these malefactions have
been committed by negroes, they
have been seized upon by the local
Democratic press to make capital
for the color line movement; but
reference to the papers during this

We invite this examination; but,
unlike the majority of our narrow

We desire to make no point as to
an impending war Of races. We
hold that the arc-angel of crime for
