in the Baltimore Ne1Vs, given on the

Mob Law In Ohio.

The indignation of the people Of
Akron, o., over the crime of the
negro brute, the other day, and
the rioting consequent on the at
tempt OF the mob to take the cul-
prit from the hands OF tNe author
tiles and lynch him, with the loss
Of some lives, shows that the black
is the black man North or South:
it also shows that the white man IS
the white man North or South.
Whether in Ohio or Mississippi the
crime with which this negro is
charged cries equally loud for
vengeance, and whenever the
wretch guilty of it falls into the
hands OF the outraged populace
his punishment will be sure-and
deserved. That is all there is to
it.

( In addition to carrying the irk
] some duties OF the chairman Of tn
= House Committee on Militarl
) Affairs, looking after his constitu
ents in the Seventh Iowa district
and helping to run the Republican
campaign as vice chairman Of tht
National Congressional Commit
tee, Congressman J. A. T. Hull
says Hearts's Chicago AMt1icaR
has formed a big corporation
which promises to make ITS stock
holders rich from the resources oi
the Philippine Islands.
Congressman Hull is president
Of the philippine Lumber and
Development Company" AS
chairman OF the Congressional
Committee on Military Affairs he
appears to have gotten in on the
ground floor for the good things
OF the Philippine Islands. With
the assistance OF his son, whom he
handilY had appointed a judge
advocate in the volunteer army OF
the United States, the astute Con-
gresham has launched a S3,Ooo,-

tracing dollars out OF the hard
wood timber lands, gutta percha
forests and coal fields in the Phil.
ipDines and incidentally showing
the Filipinos they did not know a
good thing when they had it, and
that the Yankees know something
more than hoN to fight.
Congressman Hull, as president !
OF the big corporation, is floating |
the big enterprise in Chicago and
the rest Of the United States. His
prestige as chairman Of che House
Committee on Military Affairs has
made it an easy task, it appears,
for curiously enough investors
seem to think such a prominent
position in the Federal Govern
meat ought to insure big profits
to the company in the islands over
which the military branch OF the
Government has absolute control.
Congressman Hull says his posi-
ton counts for nothing, and
proudly announces that mo Gov
ernment concession will be asked

Judge Advocate Hull, u. S. ",

OF the Re-
Ube Senator
from Marplano

~ a -
from MarvIano Of the Re
publican party who have broker
with Mckinley, none has shown
the same strength Of character thai
marks the senior Senator from
Maryland, George L. Wellington.
He is the only Republican in Off
cial life who has bearded the lion
in his den. Henry u. Johnson, OF
Indiana, did the same and has con-
tinued that opposition since his
retirement from Congress. But
Wellington in the Senate, a stall
warr Republican OF the Lincoln
type, the man who made the Re-
publican party in MARYLAND, while
still in the Senate, hurls his anath-
emas at the Administration for its
violation OF truth and honor, as
well as the traditions of the Repub.
lican party.
Senator Wellington is one OF
those who voted tor the treaty Of
Paris. and it will be remembered
that it was passed by bare mai
oritv, Every known device was
used by the Administrator to get
votes. Some we're promised Offices,
one was promised immunity from
crime, another received a money
consideration, and so on. But |
Wellington could not be reached
by ordinary methods. He opposed
the acquisition of the Philip
pines, and could not be swerved
from his course. So Mckinley
simply lied to him TO get his vote.
That is the plain fact of the matter.
He told him he did not intend to
retain the Philippines, and that the
treaty simply meant ending the
Spanish war. The utter worthless.
ness of the treaty from a moral
standpoint is thus shown. What
national disgrace it is to have man
IN the Presidential chair who will
1oc only promise Offices Tor votes
n the Legislature, but will bribe,
'ondone crime and lie, And these
hings William Mckinley has {
lone. Such is tine result Of keep 5
ng company with England. War t
en- Hastings forged a paper in '
rider to gain control of India. Nc +
Smiley lies to have treaty ratified. i
Unlike the sycophants and un- t
politicians like Thurs 6
On, OF Nebraska, and Proctor. OF {
,ermont, Senator Wellington has n
ontinued his opposition to impe-
alism and all its works and o
omps. He also condemns the Il
for trucking to Il
ngland on the Boer question. To p
Y and ignore his standing in Z
LarYland all the patronage has m
cen given to the oleaginous and to
nifty Senator McCoI~ as, who is sc
illing to be a tool to Mckinley. p'

Mr.. Judson Lyons speech was re

was not received with dlscoveraole ems

$500 consulate from this stale and he
man who was not identified with the
Negro race or any Negro organization
such as was giving this dinner. Mr..
Lauterbach in his speech had braveIy
spoken OF the failure of the party IN

and disfranc chisement, and the guests

hit of the evening, responding to the
toast "The duty Of the election district
workers" He deplored the habit OF
talking about the loyalty OF black re-
publicans as a thing belonging to the
party by right. He said they were the
most loyal OF all classes of republicans
because they were the most truly Ameri
can, and Americanism was synonymous
with epublicanism. The speech was
