The efforts of the state of Alabama
to punish persons found guilty of
lynching deserve the heartiest praise
Already one man has been sentenced
to Imprisonment for life for lynching
a negro accused of stealing chickens,
and two Others have been found guilty
OF murder in the second degree and
sentenced to ten years Imprisonment
for their part in the same outrage. The
courage of the Judge and the fidelity
OF the jury before whom these cases
were tried, have been applauded no
less warmly by the influential papers
of the South than by their Northern
contemporaries.

is THERE IN SHREVEPORT
An Organization of CoIored
People 10 Protect Criminals2

The failure to capture Prince Edwards.
the negro murderer, has suggested to th e
seusationslists that there is perhaps in the
city of Shreveport an org eanization OF
colored people whose aim and purpose is
to aid and protect criminals OF their race.
Is there such an oTganization?
1t may be said fer the negroes as a elsss
that they are rot inclined TO what NAV be
termed Ms6aisn.
IL may be SAID to the credit Of he coIcr d
people that as Glass they. are we'll
behaved in Shreveport. 1t is true that
now and then a negro OF the present
generation may assume some importance,
but he can be readily taken from his perch
or clipped OF his highness whenever he
attempts to be TOO, utterly too, too.
1t is also true that there 10 a class OF
negroes who IDLE and gamble, and these
would not hesitate to give aid and oo.nfort
10 fugitive OF their race; ard it is true
that there ale many negroes in this CITY
wao would from race sympathe, give
comfort to one Of their color who had
committed crime, but, from our general
observation of the negro as a class, we
may say there is no organization in
Shreveport Of negroes whose aim and
purpose Is to give aid and comfort to
fugitive criminals.
There is 40 incentive for the well
behaved, we'll to do negroes in Shreveport
10 engage in such conspiracy, which, when
discovered would lead them to the psui-
teatisry for long terms of years, and the
shiftiess negroes, the negroes who idle and
gamble, would not Vent1,e into such an
organization. There are negroes who may
oe well informed of the movements of
criminals iugitiVes, murderers of white
meh who meyer will venture the east clu-
which would lead to capture of the m q
wanted, aid thess could not be induced to
Tell even for money, but these same
negroes would not band together to give
aid and comfort to iugItlves-they have
bGtter sense. The statement or suggestion
that there is such an organic alton In
Shreveport, is In our opinion, mooushiue,
and this much has been written 10 dIspel
the impression created 10 the minds OF
some people who accept, without reason
ing, all the exsggerations and the sensa-
lions In eome newspapers as being facts
Ii any newsl aper man has knwledge of
such an organization he is dlrelect in his
duty in not informing the police and assist
ing Ia the arrest OF the eonspirators.
Because Prince Edwards has not been
captured is no indication OF such an
unlawful organization being in exIstence,
nor that Edwards came to Shreveport,
where he may be IN hiding, as alleged,
when is nonsense.
We NAV venture the assertion that
, friends In Shreveport are few, if
loy, AMI ne would not take the risk of
,spture by coming to the city. He

and the operators, it is said, are now
preparing for general strike over the
