That there are some people in this
country who do not believe that a
black criminal is worse than white
ones, is evidenced in the following
poetic excerpt from the San Francisco
Bulletin. It speaks for itself:
They burnt the Negro boy today
For his inhuman deed
A beast, no doubt, but what are they
If not the self-same breed?
They burnt the Negro boy today
Just sixteen summers old.
He showed no heart, himself, say they,
Let ours be deathly cold.
They burnt the Negro boy today!
In Paterson last week
Four white men did the self-same way
AS this low black child weak.
They burnt the Negro boy today;
But these are cared-for men.
Defended by grave lawyers gray
The lords of Paterson.
They burnt the Negro boy today;
Each mother froze her breast,
And voted for the vile display.
That mercy would detest.
They burnt the Negro boy today;
They chained him to a rail.
A father set the flames at play,
With murderous hand and pale. 4
They burnt the Negro boy today
And jeered his writhing sore.
They burnt the Negroes child today!
What savage could do more?
They burnt the Negro boy today
2 To mercy's thunderous roar
AS deaf as devils all were they -
What devil could do more?

WHAT ABOUT PAIS?

Now what will be done about it?
The Geographic dispatches from In
dianapolis state that positive evidence
has been secured by the state that the
man who was known as "Whistling
Joe" Rolla and who was hanged by a
Spencer county mob at . Bonneville
Monday night was innocent of any
participation in the murder of Barber
Simon at Rockport.
If it is better that ten guilty should
go free rather than one innocent SUI
fer, what will be done about this?
This lynching of human beings be-
cause God, who, made all, in His wis
dom made the lynchers white and the
lynched black must be stopped. What
excuse have these lynchers now, for
their MURDER of Rolla? ~

DECEMBER, %, 1900.

One of the most assinine inconsis-
tencies of which the whites are guilty,
is the terrible hullabaloo they kick up
when an Afro-American and eau
casin are legally welded. The latest in
that direction occurred in Lower AL
legheny Tuesday when William Zeller,
white, a traction employee, married
Jennie Manley, an Afro-American, and
went to his home on Richmond street.
Richard Zeller, cousin of the groom,
together with the latter's father, tried
to break into the room where the cOu-
pie were, while a crowd numbering
nearly one thousand people encouraged
the besiegers with cries of Lynch
them!" Kill them!" and kindred
phrases. At midnight the couple were
barricaded in their home under police
protection. The father, under his ex-
citement, is said to have threatened
to kill his son before morning or COM
init suicide.
There would have been very little
thought of it, if they had begun to
live together as man and wife, with,
out the legal formality Of a marriage
ceremony. In fact, it is almost con-
sidered the proper thing for white
man, in the South, especially, to keep
an Afro-American mistress But for
them to be joined in the holy bonds
of matrimony according to Gods holy
ordinance and the laws of the. land,
is SO terrible a disgrace that the father
OF the groom threatens to murder his
own son Or commit suicide.

YOUR record-tell us what you propose
| to do" If they do this l Confidently
predict that the republican party will
obtain what it wants every time, The
history of the republican party has Just
begun.
Following MIR. Mclean short address,
es were made by Senator Keller of Nor
walk, nominee for acknowledgements
Senator Vinal of Middletown, nominee
for secretary of state, and Ablram
Chamberlain Of Merlden, the nominee
for state comptroller. All expressed
themselves as being confident of large
republican majorities in the approach
ing election
Senator Hawley's short address was
apparently appreciated greatly by his
auditors. His words were glowing
with patriotism, and he paid high trib-
ute to President Mckinley. After re-
ferring to the nominations for state Of
ticers as happy ones and the certainty
of the nominees being elected, he went
on to speak of Mckinley. He extolled
his great sense and the perfect calm
ness with which he has met all emer-
gencies. "And his message of accept
ance" he continued statement un-
surpassed in literature for style, or in
craftsmanship for sense and Wisdom--a
perfect eptomy of the whole case.
What a calamity it would be to fail to
re-elect him, and to elect Mr.. Bryan
Imagine, you business men, how you
would feel if Bryan should be elected.
With Bryan elected all the vexatous
questions that have affected business
and made the country miserable would
be renewed. Aguinaldo would from
democratic standpoint become a hero
and our soldiers contemptuous for hav-
ing engaged in an unholy and unjust
war For the sake Of our dead heroes,
for the sake of the blood that has been
shed in the Philippines, for Gods sake,
stand by your flag and your country
every one of YOU
The speaker uttered his last words in
a ringing voice and took his seat amid
perfect storm of applause. The band
struck up patriotic air. and it had no
sooner finished than Senator Hawley
was again on his feet. In clear toned
voice, with perfect air, he commenced
to sing Marching Through Georgia"
at the same time signing with his
hands for the others to join in. This
they did and the song waxed louder

GEN. R. M. CLARKE

The death of Gen. Robert Clarke
removes from sphere of usefulness in
Nevada one of its oldest and foremost
citizens.
He has resided for more than 4
quarter Of century in this city and
was Acknowledged all over the Coast
as one Of the most brilliant lawyers
this State has ever produced. The
leading characteristic of the man WAS
a devotion to his clients interests
that never wavered and he prosecuted
his legal battles to the bitter end, re-
Kardless of friend or foe, with an abil-
ity that earned him the respect Of
every member of the bar who ever
crossed swords with him and cour-
age that never wavered for an instant.
His strong love Of justice often caused
him to take the cases Of people who
could pay him nothing tor his work.
After once in the fight there was
never an array Of counsel bis enough
nor a corporation wealthy enough to
make him yield an inch of ground.
Whether his tee was thousands or
merely the gratitude of sem poor
client he was bef,iending, it made 20
difference with the patience or care
with which he prepared his case or
the zeal or ability with which he pre-
scented it.
He was man of very liberal edu-
cation, fond of the best and highest
literature and at all times and places
and under all circumstances a gentle.
man in the highest Sense Of the
term
While speaking in court he some
times hayed his opponents in word:
that bit like vitrol but he was AWAY:
within the pale Of the record and the
evidence and never an expression
dropped from his lips to which ex
ception could be taken
He was the soul Of honor in til
practice Of his profession and scernet
the slightest approach to underhand
ed play or trickery. He always me
his opponents in the open, giving fai
blow for fair blow and exacted til
same from them. He had masterl
and convincing manner of presentin
case He made every fact and wor
tell and was concise and logical to
degree, that when he spoke in an IL,
portant case the court room was &c,
tain to be crowded
His last case of importance was tn
Mint trials and it was to his abilit
and zeal that is due the victory fc
the government
In private life he was the essence
gentleness and kindness and wol
never passed his lips that coul
wonnd the feelings Of anyone.
He was a blg-hearted, geAerou
man. entertaining and giving wit
lavish hand on every side. He nev
turned a deaf ear TO the voice of di.
tress and he was the idol of his fan
lily circle.
This State has not for years lost
man harder to replace than Gener
