No thoughtful person need be surprised at
the unlawful conduct of a number Of colored
citizens who lynched the brutal murderer OF
colored planter at Nitta Yuma, Miss. There are
no novel features in the story, and it can hardly
be said that the already malodorous reputation
Of the state for such unwholesome conduct has
acquired additional stencil through this hap
pening. A desperate criminal was taken from
the hands of the sheriff and after being hanged
served as a target for many bullets. Discussing
this incident-notable only because all the parti-
cipauts were colored-the Baltimore Sun saws,
philosoI hicaly, that lynching is not it appears,
a matter Of race prejudice" The conclusion
Is doubtless correct, SO far it goes, but it is
unfairly superficial. Such conduct by Mis-
sissipp negroes is not the result Of prejudice, it
is the offspring Of example-the ull-grown
product of crime that will cause endless
trouble TO the communities in which it has
been and is being fostered. The negro race
In its effort to secure complete emancipation is
necessarily initiative. and i. would be ex-
tremely strange if this faculty should be ap-
FLIED only to the virtues Of the white man. At
all times and in all places the laBless Caucasans
OF the south have -lynchcd without let or him

Honest folk will be pleased to know that an
object the detection and prosecution Of those
dealers who sell oleomargarine to customers
who ask for butter and paw butter prices for
the chemical compound. which is In every sense
less desirable than the pure product of the COW
and the butter-worker. TIE STAR yesterday
directed attention to the fact that local pro-
duce exchange is about to be organized here
and that one Of its first duties will be the en-
hghtenment Of the public as TO the tremendous
amount Of oleomargarine which is being
disposed Of in this city. Now, there is
nothing wrong In either the sale or
purchase Of oleomargarine provided that
seller, purchaser and consumer are all
fully aware Of the character of the ami
NAL fat which they, respectively, vend, buy
and consume, but when deception il practiced
to the end that profits accrue, then the truth
should, through some means or other, become
known to all men In an interview published
In yesterdays STAR a leading produce merchant
said that number Of the large hotels in Wash
ington use oleomargarine on their tables and
that almost all Of the restaurants make use of
this cheap substitute. The reason for such
OupucitN - purely HudnchL OleOm2rgarlne Is,
1t Is said, sold by the tub as cheaply as fifteen
cents per pound, and if placed on the table
when fresh is said to look and taste
as well pure butter which at retail sells in
our markets for thirty-fve cents. This tempta-
tion to handle goods at a profit of more than
one hundred per cent cannot be otherwise than
demoralizing, even in the case Of men whose
inclinations are toward honesty, and as a con-
sequence the public is being cheated by those
to whose keeping much Of the public health is
intrusted. In neighbOring cities these rascals
have been exposed and several of them are sub
tects for trial on grand jury presentments.
Similar action should be taken here. and with
all possible speed There is no reason WHY
the authorities should wait until a produce ex-
change is organized before action be taken
against those who fraudulently deceive: who
sbtain money under false pretenses. Oleo-
margarine may not be unhealthy. but it is not
butter, and those who sell it for such should be
Immediately subject to criminal prosecution.
