has spoken i'm high terms of the work he

ed in an interview the work he expected
to do, saying:
''Our people need very much to be
aroused from the awful slumbcr of idle

and necessary. to be pushed for all there
is in it by determined. prudent and con

What is my idea about lynchings
etc. and the hardships of tae colored
people! Certainly, lynchings are TO be
deplored beyond description by all civil
cations, especially. Christian civilizations.
and the success of our work will at least
leave the way for Il clear sky. Cnfor-
turlately. the negro has been educated to
expect relief from hopeless source. He
has looked for protection as Il negro at
the hands of Il certain political party. 1t
is true that he has gotten some protec.
ton at the hands of the Republican par
ty. but that protection. such as ii has
been and is. has not been given him so
much as an American citizen. but simply
as Il political ally of that party.
THE Republican party also cam not
protect the negro. 1t has moi done it,
acknowledge that it cannot do it. The
Democratic party alone can not protect
them. The negro, if eyer protected.
must he protected. not as negro. no:
as white man. not as an object of pity,
but must be protected as an Amcrit-.iai
citizen, and this must be done by the
Americans people and no ONE party. And
if this is done. the negro must identify
himself with the best interest of his
community. State and country and adj
just himself properly to the principles
that will produce these results. regardless
Of party. whether that course puts him in
the Democratic or the Republican col.

WHAT ABOUT sUMMERELL.
Charges of Cruelty to Convicts Have
Not Yet Been Investigated.

What hts become of the Summerell
investigation!
Sulnnerell, you know, is supervisor of
the Northampton farm.
Suminerell. you know. is the man from
whose farm no end of charges of cruelty
have come.
Summerell, you know, is the man on
whose farm II convict was beaten to
death.
Summercll, you know, is the man on
whose farm. last winter. one coIvict
was frozen to death in the field.
Summerell. YOU know. is the man on
whose farm half dozen other coDvicts
were so badly frost-hitten that they had
to have toes and fingers and in some
cases larger parts of the feet and hands
cut Off
These men are now here in the Cen
trail Prison. They were brought here
and shown 10 the board OF directors.
The board ordered an investigation
But no investigation has been held
Not that one expected any. but that
makes it none the less the shame that
this cruelty should escape the dog lash
of Justice.
No investigation was expected by any
one for the reason that almost immc-
diateIy the investigation was ordered
many months ago there was an init
nation from the Governors office that
there would he no investigation.
But later Mr. Travis, chairman of the
Executive Board. said that there would
be an investigation.
And now pray, why has 4 not bcel
held. Who is protecting Summerel, and
to what end? Is not the Executive
Board with its inactive silence screening
this man!
Either tell us this, or else strik. Z
match and look earnestly into the mat
ter. Some folks have Il theory that he
would more ittingly adorn cell tEtn
a supervisorship. Cruelty to prisoners
is easy. For which no reason should be
spared to make it utterly unpopular.

IT should not be overlooked by some of those who are worrying about ''the white mans bur don," in the Philippines, that the first and most important burden for any man to look out for is the proper support of those dependent upon him Notunti that is done is any man expected to bear the bur- den of others, be they black, white yellow or red.

Sometime since we noted :he efforts of tho Commercial League of Ft. Smith in it's endeavor to induce the Arkansas legislature to permit the people of the State to vote on constitutional amend ment that would authorize the passage of such laws as would en. courage the building of manufact- uring establishments in the State, On being solicited by the Ft. Smith Commercial League 10 lend our aid in this matter, we then pointed out to these men the hopeless fight they were making, calling their attention to the fact that 1t was the burden of our political speak
 CTS to curse the capitalists, and that these mossback politicians had succeeded in creating q senti- ment in the State that was radically opposed to any such progress and
 were not even willing to permit the people to vote on the question. However, the efforts of Ft. Smith received encouragement from 8 number of the progressive towns of the State ana the matter was brought before the legislature in the early part of the session, and as we had predicted, it dId not re- ceive the appreciation of but a very small contingent of our represen- tatives in that enlightened body. h tact, the proposition when pre- sented was received with jeors and
 hisses and ne of the deciples of moss backism moved that coffee mil Is and peanut roasters be eX- empt from the list of manufacture ing enterprises to be encouraged
 In the face of the fate of the efforts of the Ft. Smith League, now comes the Commercial League of Pine Bluff and asks TEE TRIBUNE to circulate a petition among our business men at once and forward the 8ame to our rep rcsentatIve and bring all the influence possible to bear upon him, urging him before the legislature adjourns, to give his support to the very same kind ofan amendment proposed by the
 Ft. Smith League We have only to say: Gentlemen, we ad dmlre your pluck, but condemn your judgement Itwouid be just as consistent for us to circulate a petition asking he members of the Commercial League of Pine Bluff to change their politics as 1t would be 10 ask the Arkansas leg isIalure to pass any law looking to the material progress of our Sla.e
