LYNCHINGs IN RECENT YEARS.

In sixteen years 2.516 Iynchings have
taken place in this country and every
state but five has been the scene OF at
least one of these illegal executions.
Three New England states, Massachu-
sets, New Hampshire, and Rhode ISL
and, and Delaware and Utah have
been guiltless in this direction. South
ern blood has been responsible for 1850,
and negroes have been the victims in
1878 cases. Twenty-one Indians, nine
Chinese, and seven MeXicans have been
subjects of the mob's fury, and sol
whites. Fifty-one women are included
in the total of 2,5l6 Each year since
1892, when 236 met this violent death,
the number of lynchings decreased un-
till 1899, which saw 107 In 1900 there
were lis and there have been so far
this year 10l Of which twenty-three
were of white people, Among the
cause given for the whole sixteen
years are many trivial ones, but the
present year has seen lynchings for
quite as slight reasons as any time I'm

media a Portuguese stone mason at
Spreckelsville was found dead in a deep
ditch near the Spreckelsville mill this
morning at $50. He had been missing
since last night. and his wife and others
had been searching all night for him.
There was a little water in the ditch
where he was found but his face was
bruised showing that the fall in the
ditch probably stunned him. He had
been drinking.-Ma News.

A military convention is rumored to
have been concluded between Greece
and Roumania, under the auspices Of
Count GoluchOwski, the Austrian min

the credit Of having brought it about.
As Bulgaria and Servia have lately
gone over entirely to the side of Russia,

equilibrium i'm the Balkans to make
Greece and Roumania allies. Turkey

ment of fact does not show whether the

mine this question of good faith or in

mitted to me. | am satisfied, however,
that 1t is within your power to detain
and examine such alien seamen, and to
deport them, if you are satisfied that
they intended to remain within this
country. You are not obliged to remain
inactive when so easy an entrance
through our immigration barrier is be-
ing effected.
Replying to the inquiry in your let
ter of April ?, 1901, | think the liability
of these alien seamen to pay the head
money under the act of August 3, 1882,
depends upon the same question of in
tention, and must be dealt with ac-
cordngly as "A matter of fact to be de-
cided in accordance with the evidence
of each particular case. If they ship
ped as seamen as a convenient method
of securing passage to this country,
and for the purpose of entering there
in as other alien immigrants, then
they are passengers and subject to the
capitation tax But if they shipped
with the intention in good faith to con-
tinue their occupation as seamen, and
with no intention to make entry into
this country, then they are not passen-
gers, and are exempt from the tax in
question"

Too Much Expected.

Newspaperdom publishes the
paper read by Col. John Dymond
at the La. Press Convention. lie
says; "The press of Louisiana is
the power that shonld now take up
this GOOD roads movement ; that
should criticize in every locality
the bad roads and ask the reason
why; that should praise the good
roads wherever they are found and
show why the roads are good, giv~
ing credit to the people who Sc
cure the good roads and blame to
those whose Indifference or care
lcsSneSs has led to the bad roads"
Which is all very good, and the
press is a mighty agent to further
all great and desirable ends. 1t
must not weary in well-dOing how.
ever, for on it are laid not only
the sins Of the people, a vcritable
scapcgoat, but,alI their aspirations
and GndeayOrs for better things.
For instance, it is said, very pleas
antly, Of course, to the newspaper
man "Why don't you stir
up the people about good
roads?' Or 81 shall like to see an
occasional article On the roads"
Well, THIS press is right weary on
the subject. 1t has said things for
years about the roads, it has de-
scribed good roads, land pointed out
the losses from bad ones. And
when results are expected, 10, the
people enjoy barhecucs, Or petition
the Police jury to reScind the only
practical action it has taken in
years to make good roads an &C
cOmpIished fact.
"Criticize bad roads" says Col
Dymond. "Cni bono? The only re-
suit ever seen from it was to make
that particular road oyerSeer an

Slippery Willie Adams.

Dep'y-sheriff r.. S. Towlcs re-
turned early in the week from a
trip to NatcheZ, where he had
reason to expect to find VIM Adams
under arrest. The latter is the
same negro, who escaped from Mr.
TOwles, on Arondalc plantation,
some weeks since, evidently going
into the adjoining cane brakes of
Mississippi, whence it was easy
for him to proceed to Natchez. lie
had a bullet ilf his shoulder which
he had received some time since,
being fired upon, from ambush by
some unknO wn person. AS the
wCnnd was troubling him he appli-
I'd to Dr.. Brown, surgeon of the
Natchez Hospital, giving his name
first as Johnny Jenkins, but later
admitting to The Doctor his real
name. He was under treaLment at
The hospital when the Eatchez chief
of police, learning of his where.
abonts, went with t;TO of his skill
ed assistants to arrest him, taking
the prccaution to 90 ont to the
hospital IN q closed cab. But some
thing evidently aroused Adams
suspicious. for before the officers
could get into the building, he ran
ont at the rear, even closing the
door behind him, and leaving no
trace of the direction he had taken.
Another negro in the same room
with him, wounded in the hand.
took fright, and also disappeared
at the same time. The hospital and
police officials were much annoyed
by the escape of Adams, but il
goes to prove how exceedingly willy
he is, and how it came about that
he escaped from Dep'y sheriff
TOWlcS, who has % hitherto III
broken record for success as u war
rant officer. The latter's kindness
of heart betrayed him, however
for had he not turned to speak a
rc,asSuTing word to the negroes
sisters, Adams would never have
gotten the advantage. by the way

stating that the deputy sheriff got
behind the door. lie stood his
ground, saying "NiSger, don't you
shoot me-" and the negro backed
out of the door, dropping off the
high gallery and escaping from
beneath.

about % years old, slender, five
feet six inches in height, oval face,
grif in color. lie says he will

The Work at TuSkcrpp,

The True Democrat is not of
those, who would deny the negro
race chancCto improve it's CO...
<lition, to rise. And indeed it feels
that the prosperity of the South
depends largely on the improve
ment Of the dark race. Conditions
of climate and temperament make
it necessary for the Caucasian, in
this section to have the Africans
assistance in all manual aud out
door employments. He is an abso
lutte necessity, and nowhere docs
he, when properly treated, assimi-
late with economic conditions bet
ter than in the South, where his
long acquaintance and association
with the white man makes him the
better understood and the more
easily ma2aged. And he is all the
more improved by representation.
Note the word, proper, before
you, Mr.. Negro Halter, raise your
hands in horror. BY proper edu,
cation is meant, education that will
purify lis heart, train his bands,
as we'll as cultivate his brain. a
smattering of knowledge, which
leaves the morals unframed, is
dangerous acquisition for a white
man, and to expect it to be less
dangerous for black one is not
sound reasoning. A knave who
can read and write has one weapon
more than All ignorant creature who
has never even "tOuchcd the pen"
And this, whether he be white OIL
black. But education that also trains
the hands and cleyatps the Morals.
is the only true sort for a man
who must Carn his own living,
whether he be white or black.
And Booker Washington, the
negro president of Tuskegee Indus
trial Institute, has undoubtedly
discovered this great secret of econ
omics and morals. lie is the Apos-
tie, the industrial Savior Of his rae, :
If they hearken to his teachings, Le
will be the Moses to lead them on
ward to better things. In such ca e
the white race will have nothing to
fear, as the negro will have become
a moral self.rcspccting, self>support-
ing member of his own distinct
society.
For a full description of Tnskc-
gee, its work, its methods, its aims,
the reader is referred to All exhaust
i've article by Booker Washington
in the September number Of Frank
Leslic's Popular Monthly.
Not in many a summers day has
his writer read a more interesting
paper Oh any subject, mastcrI y i'll
its line, and we commend it to the
public, and,to doubters particularly
the passage where Booker Wash
mgton says: "But | maintain with
all the emphasis that | can emplOv,
that the rank aud file must ha,e in.

can come to possess general pros-
perity,"
