Selfridge is president, returned to
Washington yesterday from Hampton
Road, after spending two days in a
thorough test of the new government
built cruiser Raleigh, built in the Nor
folk navy yard, with the results which
far exceeded the most sanguine expec-
tations. Until the formal report is
made to Secretary Herbert the exact
details of the tests cannot be made
public, but the members of the board
are enthusiastic over the performance
of the vessel, and assert that the Raj
eigh conclusively demonstrated the
fact that the government can build
warships equal in every respect and
superior in some to those constructed

The nail has been hit squarely on the
head by the Baltimore Sun and We freely
endorse its remarks for the benefit of the
English anti-lynching society in regard
to the recent Ohio affair The Sun says:
1t is instructive to the English anti
lynching society's agents in their visit to
this country to find that in Ohio, a north
ern state, assaults by negroes on white
women are as bitterly resented as in the
south. The equanimity with which the
anti lynching English, under Miss Ida
Wells teachings, regard the outrages
from which lynchings result, is not
shared, it seems, by the people Of Wash
ington Court House, Ohio. Dolby, the
Ohio negro who assaulted Mrs Boyd, a
white widow, had been tried and seutea
ced 10 twenty years imprisonment
This sentence did not, it appears. seem

mensurAte with the crime committed
Death, they thought, was the penalty ap
propriatc to 4 crime accomplished by
threatening death, ami they resolved TO
in1ict it by lynching. Their effort to do
this resulted in the killing Of number
OF persons aud the serious wounding of
others The military engaged in guard
ing the negro fired upon The would be
lynchcrs with the effect mentioned
The affair is deplo7able one No
only wa' the attempt to lynch deplorable
but the negro's attack on the helpless
woman was deplorabe, AMI the general
result of the killing and the wounding
Of many citizens was deplorable All
would have been obyiated if the woman's
assailant had omitted his uujusti6ab,e
action. He is responsible for all the evils
