"ANARCHY OF LYNCHING"
BOOKER WASHINGTON'S LESSON
FROM BUFFALO TRAGEDY.
He Quotes Statistics of the Past Six
teen Years 40 show the Growth
Of the Anarchistic Spirit.

TUSKEGEE, Ala, Sept. 24.--BoOker T.
Washington, of the Tuskegee Normal and
Industrial Institute, has given out a state
ment in reference to the assassination of
President Mckinley, i'm which he says:
In all sincerely, l want to ask is
Czolgocz alone guilty. Has not the entire
Nation had a part in thiS greastest crime
of the century? What is anarchy but
defiance of law and has not the Nation
reaped what it has been sowing? According
to records, 2.516 persons have been lynched
i'm the United States during the past six
this anarchy of lynching nearly 125, 800 per-
sons.
TO check the present tendency, it seems
First, for all classes TO unite in an earnest
effort to create such public sentiment
will make crime disappear, and especially
is IL needful that we see that there Is no
idle. dissolute, purposeless class permitted
i'm midst. Second. for all to unite in
brave effort TO bring criminals TO justice
and where a supposed criminal is found. to
see that he has fair, patient. legal trial.
Let us heed the words of our departed
and beloved chief as he lay upon his dying
bed. referring to his murderer: L hope he
will he treated with fairness.
IF William Mckinley. as he was offering
up his life in behalf of the Nation, could
be brave enough, Thoughtful and patriotic
enough to request that his assailant should
be fairly and honestly tried and punished
surely we can afford to heed the lesson"

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. Sept 2i.-The death OF
Jere Nj. Wilson, of the Schley counsel. has

a real personal sorrow. Perhaps no other

broad-minded men that a city likes to

His death was great personal shock to
Washington. Every one knew him and ao-

men here in the course OF thirty years. but
