Wa, the Chinese minister, pays his
respects e. the mob which burned The
negro at. Leavenworth, Kas., in these
words: "What do | think Of lynching?
Well, that's strictly an American in.
ST 'utiOn China is acc sed Of many
barbarities, but lynching is not one If
them, He died protesting innocence.
Guilty men don't do that. The diff
cuity seems to be that you regard the
negro as a savage and treat him as
such. He feels himself an outlaw and
behaves as such. Why not assimilate
him benevolent. There is only o,e
way to do this and that is to make him
white, not in color, but In nature. I
would say encourage NEGRO men to
marry the lower class of white women
and your negroe women to marry the
lower class Of white mea. II this is
done the negro in few generations
would be extinct. The crime for which
Alexander suffered is unknow in China.
