.aaid may be instructed to place the
tea things on the table every after
noon about o'clock and to remove
them at dinner time. This will give
the hospitable girl chance to offer
refreshments to her friends without
imperilling the family possessions.
The wise woman has her tea brewed
in the morning, quickly removed from
the tea leaves and placed on the ice.
Then when o'clock comes it can be
brought out to the tea table in great
glass pitcher, accompanied by cracked
ice and powdered sugar, and the heat
of the day will be forgotten by all
who taste of the beverage
Those who have no principles

their afternoon tea table attractive

lemonade and orangeade are not to

vary the monotony of her repasts by

NO MORE COULD WE EXPECT.

The Des Moines Leader and the Os-
kaloosa Negro Solicitor, both Demo-
cratic papers, disagree with Miss Wells
for political reasons. They present no
facts to disprove what she has said.
The Solicitor takes the monkey part in
the play and the Leader furnishes the
modicum of brains. The Iowa State
Register comes boldly to her defense
and says:
The Register wishes Miss Wells sue
cess in her undertaking to arouse public
Indignation. We are glad that the
Negroes have found a voice, and that
among their own race, to appeal for
justice to the civilized world and to
Heaven. Law and order must be re-
stored in the South or National demor-
alization will ensue. If england can
help us we shall welcome even Eng
land. The South stands branded as
the home of lawlessness and disorder,
as a section in which the darkness of
barbarism broods over all. There is
only one way of getting back into the
world wide respect, and that is the
way of law and order.

LYNCHER CONFESSES.

Robert McGarver, son of Sheriff Nc
Carver, of Memphis. Tenn, went before
the grand jury Saturday evening and
gave the full arrangements for the
lynching at Millington of six Negroes.
He said that H. n Smith, one of the
men now under arrest, invited him to
join the party and gave to him the
names of the parties to compose the
mob, as well as details of the plans
afterward carried out. Smith declared
that the sheriff and Criminal Judge
Cooper were not ignorant of the plans
of the mob McGarver has been held
under $4,000 bonds for appearance at
the trial
A call has been issued by the pastors
of all the churches of colored people in
the city for nass-meeting tonight for
the purpose of publicly thanking Gov.
Turney, Judge Cooper and the white
citizens of Memphis for the determina-
tion they have shown to bring the Mill
ington lynchers to justice. Funds will
be raised for the widows and orphans
OF the six Negroes who were murdered
by the mob.

SUCH CANNOT ALWAYS EXIST.

How long are the outrages upon the
colored people going to last? This
question has brought forth the most
serious consideration of our best think
ing men. Should person innocent
before the law be tortured as that poor
and defenseless citizen, Andy Martin,
who was buried alive August %, 1894,
by white william, Robert Tucker,
because he was unable to tell of the
murder of fuckers son? No! most
emphatically, no. The truth is
simple one. The old gentleman knew
nothing of the murder and consequently
could tell nothing. The world would
have arose in arms, as it were, had the
burying been that of white citizen.
Think of the sufferings undergone by
the Negro race. No person can account
for such action other than one race is
to extinguish the other. The colored
race will yet see the day when similar
treatment will be given the whites who
assist in such outrages. God forbid
chat human and God-fearing people
should forever tolerate such heinous
crimes as are perpetrated upon the
Negro race. 'sGod made Of one blood
all nations" and this country cannot
and should not exist so long as its
colored citizens are burned, shot,
hanged and buried alive. OH God.
where is Thy sting? How sad 1T is to
reflect back to the days of bondage and
behold the faithful slave, loving and
submissive, working day after day in
producing wealth for his master and
country ard receiving nothing in
return, aside from what God intended
all men should have-food and shelter.
How gloomy is the outlook. We are
offered no protection and our life is as
the sand of the seashore-washed away
and hardly missed. A government that
will not protect it's citizens must fall as
did the Roman empire. Appeals have
been made to the chief executives of
our nation and they are dumb to our
pleadings. If a treaty is disobeyed or
an infringement of territory occurs it
quickly becomes a subject ofimmediate
action. But when colored loyal and
patriotic citizen of the United States is
shot or murdered otherwise, words of
commentator may be spoken, but no
action taken to prevent reoccurence
of a similar deed. Human life is not so
dear as our financial and commercial
interests according to this mode of
procedure. 1t must be stopped The
wholesale numbering of Negroes can
not much longer txist. The second act
of this tragedy will soon be on and
unless decided change is made some

DEATH OF ROBERT LEWIS.

Robert Lewis, son of a Mr.. Lewis
living nine miles south of this city, died
Sunday, after short but painful i'll
ness. Deceased was q nephew of Mrs.
Bass of this city. The young man was
Industrious and honest. The future
held in store for him a good name.
His parents and friends knew nothing
but love and respect for him. He was
IA years of age at the time of his death
and had been a resident of this county
for number of years. The funeral
occurred Monday and a large concourse
of friends and relatives assembled at
the parental home to pay their last
tribute of earthly respect. The be-
reaved family have the sympathy of all
who know them.

Peoples Advocate: Monday morning
the doors of the public schools of At
lanta, Ga, We're stood ajar. The
teachers were found at his or her post
with smile for the many bright-eyed
girls and boys who had congregated for
instruction. At the Gate City school
Prof. w. B. Matthews could do nothing
for while but seat the little seekers
for education. The fathers and mothers
at the same time, like Jacob of old,
were hanging to him and would not let
him go until he blessed their child with
a seat. When Prof. Matthews had
seated all he could, he reluctantly
turned away 295 owing to lack of room.
Other schools were equally as literally
patronized,

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The republican party comes again before
the people of Iowa with every promise per-
formed and every prophecy fulfilled.
The history of the past year has again
demonstrated the unfitness and incompe-
tency of the democratic party to admins
ter the affairs of the nation, and has again
vindics ted the eternal truth Of republican
principles.
From the universal disaster that has ac-
companed democratic supremacy we
turn with confident hope to the sacred duty
of restoring peace to a distracted and dis
ordered eountry.
We again declare for a system of pro-
tectiye duties so adjusted tn at every Amer
lean resource can be developed by Amer
lean labor receiving American wages, and
we insistiupon tariff that will accomplish
these ends.
We have but to mention the disastrous
results which have followed the mere men.
ace of free trade as conclusive evidence OF
the wisdom of the republican policy in the
past upon this subject
We adhere to the declaration of the
national republican party in 1892 upon it's
monetary policy.
We reaffirm our belief that ''the interests
of the country, its farmers and working
men, demand that every dollar, paper or
coin, issued by the government, shall be as
good as any other dollar"
We favoS the largest possible use of silver
as money, That is consistent with the per-
manent maintenance of equal values OF all
dollars in circulation.
We do nG5 want monometallism, either
of gold or S silver. and we pledge ourselves
to cont1nueeto work for bimetallism, to be
brought about by all fit means within the
power of the government.
The welfare OF the laborer and the main
tenance of the dignity of labor have been
the constantcare of the republican party
from its birth. Its whole history is an
effort to secure to the wage worker his just
share of the fruits of toll; and it now re-
news It's pledge to defend the working man
not only against the assaults OF foreign
competition but against the attacks OF
domestic avarice.
Resolved, That the honest and industri-
Gus immigrant who comes to our land with
the intent to become in good faith an
American citizen, is always welcome. None
other should ibe permitted to come, We
favor the amendment and moro stringent
enforcement OF the immigration laws so as
to exclude criminal, pauper and all other
undesirable classes whose presence tends to
degrade American labor and incite dis
order
The republican party, ever mindful OF
the patriotic services and sacrifices of the
veteran soldiers of the republic, reaftirms
its position in favor of liberality to the na-
tionn's defenders. We favor the granting
of pensions to all honorably discharged
union soldiers and sailors whose disabilities
or ornecessties justly entitle them thereto

OVERTHROW THE COMMON ENEMY.
Peoples Adyocate, atlanta, Ga.

We want good government and we
want it badly; we want a free ballot
and fair count; we want a jury that
shall guarantee to every citizen trial
by his peers; we want party in power
which shall not spend all it's ener-
gies in opposing the progress and
growth of any good citizens of the
state. For twenty-five years the pres
ent Democratic party has been in power
and the line of it's march has been
marked by misrule, by intimidation at
the ballot boxes, by unfairness in
counting the votes, by an unqualified
attention to disrespect, and crush the
opinions of other men who dared to
differ with them on political or social
questions. We think every man who
has looked into the situation has found
it just as we have painted it. We know
that the party that has been guilty of
such actions has no right to the sup
port of men who want progress and
prosperity in this state.
Now it is our Judgment that all the
people both white and black, Demo-
Gratis, Republicans and Populists would
be benefited, if the old machine was
disorganlzed. Good would surely come
to the people Prove all things and
hold fast that which is good, is the
doctrine which the colored man needs
to follow just now. We have tried the
Democratic party for twenty-five years
and find it to be the common enemy to
the Negro at every step, and now an
other party has come which offers to
make concessions to us us men, which
promises a free ballot and fair count,
which declares against every evil COM
mon to the Democratic party.
