WHERE THE REMEDY LIES.
within the Power of the Negroes to
Stop Lynching.
(Damyille RcgiStpr.)

Readers Of the HcgiStor will doubt
less recall recent reference to the
crusade by Miss Jcwett, of Boston,
against negro lynching. This young
woman. either through excessive en-
thusiasm or desire for cheap notori
cty, has been delivering harangucS
cuIo@izing the negro and indiscrimi-
natelv dcnOuncing the whites of the
South. The Young woman is either
dcnselv ignorant of the subject she
discusses or so grossly pre- JUDGED
that her appeals to scctionaism and
race pre- judice harm rather than help
the cause she has cspOuscd. Con
traStcd with Jewctt's frcnZied and
unrcasoning TRADES on the same sub
feet, the following from a Northern
newspaper. The New York Morning
Tcicgrdph. is really refreshing:
Miss Jcwctt is the latest champion
of the colorcd race, and has begun in
Boston an agitation to suppress the
lynchings Of negroes in the Southern
States. There are many things about
which Miss .Jcwctt could busy her
self beside lynching. Many iniqui
ties and in CAPABILITIES which require
amendment exist in our social svs-
TEN whereof her chances of success
full reformation would be much
brighter. This negro lynching is a
failing which has worried the best
minds of the country, North, South
and West, as well as in Boston, for
thirty years, and the remedy has not
vet been found. Miss Jewett. like
all others who have dealt with the
question theoretically, begins her ar
gumcnt on false premises. The fault
is not with the white people Of the
South, as she alleges. but with the
negroes. 1t is within the power OF
the blacks to stop lynching at any
time. If they will obey the laws.
cease criminal practices, they will not
be lynchcd. Southern whites do not
set fire to the colorcd population
merely for the fun there is in it.
There is IN underlying purpose, a
reason for all these negroes depend
ing from trees and these other ones
burning at stakes. The reason is
obvious. The remedy lies with the
negro, not with Miss Jewett. She
can get herself talked about and her
picture III the papers and have cold
blooded persons say unkind things
about her. but until the negroes de
eide upon a complete change of sys-
TEN and wholly alter their modes of
life. we fear Miss Jcwctt will not
check lynching in the South"
We do not remember having seen
in the press of North or South Il more
dispaSSonate or faircr presentation
OF this question than these express
ions of our contemporary.

Concerning Strawberries.

splanting should be done in late
summer or early fall on the coast and in
early November in the interior of the
state, followed by resetting in February
or March when necessary. The best dis
tances for hill culture are variable, from
36 by IS to 36 by "a inches being recon-
mended. In matted rows, 4S by IS
inches, the runners being allowed to
make a row about IS inches wide, leav-
ing 80 inches for cultivation, is consid-
cred the best distance. In the annual
rotation no cultivation after fruiting,
except the eradication of the larger
weeds, is necessary. In the biennial TO-
tatlon continuous cultivation through
out the first season must be followed.
Mulching previous to fruiting is recon.
mended, the most economical material
being pine straw. The mulch should
never be burned off, but turned under
with the plants when the plat is de-
stroyed. -Rulletin, Georgia Station.

The following story is told about
Dave Moffat: A young man came to
him and asked pecuniary aid to start
him in business. DO you drink" ask
ed Moffat. "Once in a while" stop
it, stop it for a year, and then come and
see me again" The young man went
home and broke away from this habit.
1t took him some time, but he finally
worried through a year and presented
himself again. DO you chew" asked
the banker. Yes, l do" was the des-
perate reply. Stop it. stop it for a
year and then come to me again" The
young man stopped chewing, but he
never went back again. When asked
by his anxious friends why he never
called on Moffat again, he replied that
he knew exactly what the mar was
driving at. He'd have told me that
now.. that l had stopped drinking,
smoking and chewing, that I must have
saved enough to start myself in bust

The amount of coal consumed by a

largely upon the speed, for the con-

A MISGUIDED

|
A correspondent of the Cheyenne
Tribune. who states that he is a cattle
man and has paid taxes in Wyoming
for eighteen years, rushes to the de-
Tense of the proposition to loot the
public treasury through the payment of
wolf bounties. The gentleman says:
Il notice an article in the Sun-Leader
copied from The Laramie Republican
in regard to a wolf bounty. I think the
editor takes a very narrow view of the
ase when he says that the citizens of
Cheyenne and Laramie and other big
cities have nothing at stake in pro-
tectipg the stock industry of Wyoming.
I would like to ask him what Wyoming
would amount to II It were not for the
stock interests of the state?"
The position of The Republican upon
his question is not a narrow one. On
the contrary this paper stands upon
he broad ground of equality. Every
IN under the flag should be perfectly
Hing to bear his equal and exact por-
lon of the burden OF government.
The correspondent asks, What
Pould Wyoming amount to if it were
kot for the stock interests Of the
ate?" We answer, perhaps not a
a deal. 1t is true that the stock
terests are immense and that the men
the ranches have p~rospered in a
greater degree than their city neigh
bors. but is that a good argument in
favor of increasing the tax burden Of
the city resident, the railroad man and
the miner in order that the opulence of
the man OF the range should be still
further augmented? Would it not be
nor in with right and
Justice for the stockpan to say to his
neighbor of the city, II am doing well.
My profits are greater than yours. l
can afford to protect my own property
rust as you are compelled to protect

wolves Is a matter which concerns me
almost wholly. and I propose to bear
the burden out Of my well-flled larder,
not asking you, my friend, to assume
tor me a tax which o can i'll afford"

says: 81 want to know what we, the
