been that the northern people who come
south to live soon get their eyes opened
and understand the situation. Not along
ago the editor of a Baptist paper in New
York said that the South was not ready
for it now, but the time would soon come
when miscegenation would be found the
best solution of the race problem. And
only last week the editor of a Republican
paper defended Mr.. Roosevelt and said
that in another generation social equality
between the races would be universal at
the South and it was well to start it at
the white house. With such malignant
fools we can do nothing, for they are too
far off. But they had better shiny on
their own side. BILL ARP

An Englishman is responsible fer the
following sentiment:
ITO write book is an easy task, it re-
quires only pen and ink and some pa
tient paper. To print book is slightly
moro difficult, because genius often cx-
presses itself in illegible manuscript. To
read a book is still more difficult, as one
must struggle against sleep. But the
most difficult task that any one may at
tempt is to sell a book"

COLOMBIAN REVOLUTION.
Government Claims That 1t Has Been
Stamped Out.

WASHINGTON. June 20.-Dr. Martinez
Silva, the minister from Colombia, has
received dispatches from the capital of
Colombia which he regards as setting
at rest the reports that the Colombian
revolutionists are again in strong force
around Panama.
The minister's dispatches state that
the uprising has been entirely stamped
out, with the exception of few small
scattered bands operating in the neigh
borhood of Panama. The bands are
said to have no strength in Panama
city, but their guerrilla tactics in the
neighborhood account for the alleged
fear experienced by American parties.
In the view of the Colombian minis
ter, the revolution is actually at an end
and the bands around Panama are
treated as part of the guerrilla move.
ment, like that going on in the Philip
pines
AS confirming the view of the gov
ernment, the official dispatches state
that the Bank of Bogota has offered to
advance the national government all the
funds it requires if the issue of paper
money is discontinued. At the same
time, leading banks in the interior have
made loans to the state.
Considerable trouble arises, owing to
filibusters from Jamaica and other West
Indian points.

Story of Demand Upon Great Britain

WASHINGTON, June 20.-A complete
denial is obtained at the state depart
ment of the story emanating from a
special correspondent in Copenhagen to
the effect that the United States ad-
dressed a note TO the Danish govern
ment recently relative to st. Thomas
and st. CrOix, demanding that the Dan
lsh government fortify the islands if it
refuses to sell them to the United States.
The state department has had no com.
munication whatever with the Danish
government on the subject of the Dan
lsh West Indian islands for the past
three months, and it neveIehas contem-
plated making any such demand as that
reported.
Negotiations respecting the acquisi-

have progressed languldly but in perfect

there is no reason to qualify the origi.

that they will be concluded in season to

Two Louisiana Negroes Die FOR MUIR
der at Foster.
SHREVEPORT, La, June 20.-Frank,
better known as Prophet" Smith. and
f. D. MoLand. held at Benton for COM
plicity in the murder of John Gray Fos-
ter, were taken out by mob last night
and strung up to tree. They were
left dangling side by side.
The lynching occurred on the Arkan-
sas road, about 1 mile and a half from
the Jail. Both negroes made statements
before death, denying that they had
anything to do with the killing.
Smith, who was at the head of the
"Church of God" movement in that
section, and was blamed as being re-
sponsible for the sentiment against the
whites which led to the death of Foster,
died praying. McLand was silent as he
was swung up.
AS Smith was being led from the Jail
prior to the execution he was heard to
say:
Lord, you promised to be with me
now"
There were about 200 armed men in
the mob, and they overpowered the
sheriff and jailer, taking the keys away
from them.
The lynchers claimed that the execu.
tion of these negroes was necessary to
the preservation of the lives of white
men in this locality.

Public Sentiment Approves.

SHREVEPORT. La, June 2O.-Affairs
are as quiet as a summer sea in this To-
cality today. The only evidence of mob
violence at Benton when day dawned
was the lifeless forms of two negroes
swinging lightly to and fro in the
breeze. The usual verdict, Hung by
parties unknown" is the verdict. The
execution created no excitement what.
ever, either in Shreveport or Benton.
1t is probable that no effort will be made
by the grand jury, which meets next
week IN Benton, to fix the responsibility
for last nights dual execution. Public
sentiment here is not condemnatory of
the mob's work.
