One of the very peculiar things con-
nected with almost every lynching OF
an Afro-American is that the victim
confessed his guilt" At least that
stereotyped phrase is generally found in
the newspaper reports.> Now, the facts
are, the victims of those man. devils are
not questioned as to their guilt or in
ocence and are seldom given time to
open their mouths before the tiger.men
spring upon them If you are black, or
can be suspe cted of having African blood
in your veins, you are convicted, con-
demned irrevocably as soon as sus-
pected of q crime in the South. And
they carry you very lonesome road in
many places in the North. The lines of
the Afro.American seldom fall in pleas
and places.

they seek to adjust it in proper way
by arbitration and if fai ing to thus settle
differences, they begin to look about,
individually, for employment else

similar institutions by Afro Americans
is again obvious. We have urged the
establishment of factories, brick yards,
ETC., by the well-to-do of the race, as it
will open the doors of employment to
many who find them closed to them on

can ever become great or powerful until,
it has become independent and able to
take care for itself. We have been too
long dependent upon, and sab.ervient
to the dominant race. If we are to solve
our own problems we must begin to do
it by making such Investments
that will prove beneficial to those
financially interested as we'll as to the
