REMOVE rAE cAllsE.

In another column we quote from the
Louisville Courier. Journal an article con-
trasting the partisanship Of the Michi-
gan Legislature, in condemnlng the
Southern states" for "barbarously"
lynching negro rspists and refusing to
condemn similarly barbarous lynching
Of a negro, few days previous, at Port
Huron, in their own state. They say in
effect that it is barbarous TO do in the
Southern states what It is humane to do
in Port Huron, Michigan. They refused
to substitute Omitted States" for
Southern states" they did not wish to
condemn the Port Huron mob.
One Of the members declared on the floor
Of the House that people going to church
in the morning knew that this lynching
was to take place and that "the sheriff
deserted and left his charge to the fury
Of the mob" Another member who
knew the facts" is thus reported:
There are some crimes which laws OF
Michigan are inadequate TO punish prop
erly This was such a crime. It aroused
the people Of Port Huron and they turned
out and dealt out to the offender the
punishment Of death. Mr.. Bailey knew
who did the work of vengeance. II com.
prised so large portion Of the orderly
and reputable citizens of. the county that
IL was afterward impossible to procure
signatures TO petition TO the Board OF
Supervisors TO investigate the lawless
/ conduct. The offenders were well known.
| They were not Of one party, but OF al
parties. Republican, Democrat, Populist
Prohibition, all participated.
II is lamentable. it is horrible that
rapes and lynehlngs are made matters
Of public discussion; II is shocking anC
awful that either crime is perpetrated.
But they are perpetrated. We must
con slider the facts as they are. On
crime leads to, almost necessitates, thl
other crime.
The question Is not, is either right
but what shall we do to stop both?
Evidently stopping the effect will no
stop the cause. As the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. Republican paper, tersel.
says: "The colored people Of the coun
try talk Of forming an anti-lynchinI
society. An antiraping society woul'
accomplish better results"
Everybody is opposed to lynchings
but, it seems, that nobody in the Nortl
opposes, OF tries to prevent the negroe
from committing the unspeakable crime
which invite lynching.

Lynoh Law and the Negro.

Louisville Courier Journal.
The Courier. Journal yesterday gave an
account Of the unique proceedings Of the
Michigan House of Representatives when
that body passed the following resolu-
tion. Resolved, That the House OF
Representatives Of the State Of Michigan
contemplates with horror the manifest
disposition ON the part Of the controll-
ing element of the population OF the
Southern states to condemn, unheard,
colored people accused Of crimes and
misdemeanors, and to visit upon those
poor defenseless poople-whom the con-
stitution Of our country guarantees the
right belonging to ell citizens-punish-
ments cruel and barbarous. The House
calls upon the authorities at Washing
ton 70 exercise the power of
the nation TO prevent wholesale
lynchings and other crimes Of like char
acter. This resolution was passed by
a strictly Republican vote, and although
few days before negro had been
lynched ia Miehigon, an amendment
substituting the words United States"
for Southern States" was promptly
rejected. The Courier Journal does not
propose to attempt the enlightenment Of
these Michigan statesmen Time is too
valuable too waste in that direction. But
as this actiop illustrates an opinion,
common in the East. that the negro is
lynched 10 the South ON account of his
color, Information as 10 the real facts s
ought 10 do something TO revise that
opinion. Thomas Dixon, Jr., Of New

ANOTHER TERRIBLE STORM
OVER 1000 LIVES LOST
100000 in Property De-
stroyed by a Tidal Wave.
GREAT DESTITUTION FOLLOWS

A terrible southeast storm set IN ut Mobile
Alabama, at O. clock ON Monday morning.
By | O'Clock in the afternoon the wind had
reached II velocity of so miles an hour, and
by midnight il had reached 125 miles. All
the Wholesale and part of the retail business
district was flooded 10 IA depth oil about four
ieet. Houses were unrooted, trees and Chin
neys levelled, and street car travel stopped.
MANY marine disasters were reported, and
two men were drowned in the river.
Reports reached New Orleans Tuesday
night that settlements of oyster fishermen on
Biyou Cook and the summer resort OF Grand
Isle had been destroyed by the storm on Mon
day, and that the loss of lifes has reached the
annaIling figure of $50. Rumors of loss Of
life near Mobile and in Plaquamne parish,
Louisiana. increase the number.
Orange orchards, rice plantations and sugar
cane fields have been totally destroyed. to-
perher with much valuable machinery. Rail-
roads. county roads and bridges. wharves,
warehouses, &c.. were washed away, while
the damage to shipping is immense.
In some of the parishes in Louisiana not a
building is standing and many persons barely
escaped with what clothing they had on. The
Louisville and Nashville Railroad lost 80
miles of tracks and bridges.
A tidal wave seemed to rush in and swept
every thing before it, and in receolng carried
into The Gulf nearly all the live stock.
On the Florida coast the same scenes were
enacted, and it will be weeks before the full
damage will be known,
Hogan, Georgia, was struck by cyclone
