Ii is a fact, though very few Bepu bli-

geo is steadily advancing in intelli-

progress 3 handicapped 10y the almost
equal readiness that has been shown
by some members OF the colured race
To become criminals and the enemies
of society. The unlawful punishment
of these henous crimes by the whites
has given opportunity for the fabric
alton of shameless falsehoods concern
ing the attitude of "thc races IN the

now pay any attention to such stories.
The best answer to them, udeed. is
the fact that the negro is making un-
