some parts of the south. and their deeds
were lauded as worthy of the new citizen
ship which they have been earning for
themselves. But the remedy for the evils
of race prejudice apparently lies elsewhere
than in a campaign marked by the courage
and patriotism of the negro.
1t is clear that the spirit of fellowship
born of common necessities ard hardships
in the midst of a campaign against a ma
tiOnal enemy is essentially different from
that which exists in the community in time
of peace. The troubles reported today
from these five points in the south spring
from the feelings created long years ago
Generations of social distinctions are not
wiped away easily. The negro and the white
man are each at fault, in measure. The
one demands more than caution dictates rs
wise for him to ask the other resents the
advances toward equality which the law
has virtually forced upon the black man,
All Il is in a region where mob violence
too often takes the place of the laws

The conditions are unfavorable to a quiet
solution Of the problem. Will it work out
in time? This question agitates all think
ing citizens most deeply. The majority.
being optimists, believe that it will Pes
simists forecast trouble of a serious sort.
These riots and killings will probably
teach their lessons gradually. Some day,
it is sincerely to be hoped. the south will
no longer be the scene of bloodshed this
account. AS a step toward this desirable
condition it should be the effort of every
conservative citizen to deprecate lynchings,
to advocate the enactment of strict laws
to prevent these crimes against justice
and to give the court a standing of GER
tain power in every community.
The lynching spirit is behind most of these
conflicts. The negro is taught by his white
neighbors that the law is written for no
practical purpose and he readily takes the
cue and becomes a bandit in spirit and too
often in action. The evils of this disregard
for the conventions of civilization follow
each other thick and fast. One act of Ii
cense generates another. Barriers are
broken down. apprehensions are created,
and from relatively small beginnings the
race war develops. useless demoralizng.
devastating. The south is creating for it
self a far graver evil by the refusal to
strengthen the fands of the law than the
race question itself.

Senator Keller Is Manager.

Senator Henry Keller left his home
at Sank Centre yesterday morning and
came to Minneapolis in hot haste,
after he had read the Times report
that he had been superseded in the ac-
tive management of the beet sugar
manufacturing company by Adolph
Hinze of New York. Immediately
after his arrival here the senator hired
rig and, accompanied by R. j.
O'Connell, he drove out to the sugar
factory at st. Louis Park to see Mr.
Hinze. But Mr.. Hinze had gone home
when the senator arrived. Early in
the evening Senator Keller called at
the Tines Office. He was very indig-
nant and declared with considerable
warmth that there was no truth in the
statement that he was no longer the
general manager of the company.
Said the senator:
81 am the only general manager of
the Minnesota Beet Sugar Manufac-
turing company-I and no one else
Why anybody should say that I have
been superseded by Mr.. Hinze or any
body else l cannot understand The
statement is absolutely false and with
out foundation. It was I who EN-.
ployed all the help and made all the
contracts for the machinery, buildings
etc., and I propose to continue the
management of the plant and show the
world what the state of Minnesota car
do.
"As I said before, continued Sena
tor Keller, 81 cannot understand how
and where the report that I had with
drawn from the active management o.
the factory originated, unless the story
was started by some one who wants te
injure me in my senatorial campaign
and belittle me before my constituents
[ went back home over a week ago tC
look after my campaign and also tC
attend to some Of my business affairs
there. I am confident that [ will be
reelected to the state senate by ma
jority of more than 1000. "-Minne.
