A STRIKING CONTRAST.

While Booker Washington in Richmond
be Industrious and not to rush to town
and seek to live by their wits. a negro
preacher in Boston was going to ex-
tremes to save from a fair trial negro
charged with arson in Durham. Let us
contrast the expressions of the two.
Booker Washington closed his address TO
the National Negro Business League with
these words:
after we return to our homes let us
Lear in mind that in the long run and
N the last analysis our influence and
power for good will be measured by what
our neighbors, black and white, have TO
say atout us, rather than the words of
the man who lives a thousand miles dis
tant from our territory"
The negro preacher in Boston, trying
to save negro from trial, declared:
81 would rather be shot running awaS
from an officer in Massachusetts than
take the word of Governor Aycock. OF
North Carolina, promising me fair trial
and go to that State for trial"
Booker Washington has often warned
the negroes against preachers of lax
morals, who condoned vice. and the fol-
lowing from his Richmond speech seems
to be addressed to preachers of tho
Scott sort:
1.-The type of minister who heretofore
has spent his time in merely travelling
from one community to the other without
a home of his own. without bank &C
count, without financial credit, will more
and more lose his influence as a leader.
The people are beginning to look for
leadership in the type of a man who
owns his home. who has a bank account,
who has the respect and confidence Of
not only the black people but the white
people in the community where he lives.

THE LESSON TAUGHT By THE
ALABAMA ELECTION.

The Lesson of Governor Johnston's de-
feat is found in his opposition to the suf-
frage constitutional amendment.
AS between Johnston and Jelks, the
people would have chosen Johnston ten
to one. He is a far ADLER man and In
every way better qualified. But he made
a fatal mistake when he threw himself
against the amendment that cut off the
negro vote. He said he was in favor OIL
getting rid of the negro vote III some
ether way, but the people decided to take
no chances. The victory of Jelks is not
personal victory for him or personal
defeat for Johnston 1t is an emphatic
declaration that no man who stands
against honestly suppressing the ignor-
ant negro vote can hope for success in
any Southern State.
That lesson has not been learned by
some would-be leaders in North Caro-
lima. Perhaps they will learn it after a
second defeat this year.

THE LYNCHING APPROVED BY
THE JURY.

The verdict of the coroners jury In
OF the negro rapist is significant. Usually
the jury contents itself in such cases with
a declaration that the rapist ''came to
his death at the hands of parties I'M
known to the jury.''fIn this case a Wayne
county jury, composed of representative
and influential citizens, rendered the fol-
lowing verdict:
eve, the undersigned, empanelled as
jury to inquire into the cause of the
death of Tom Jones, find that he came to
his death by gun shot wounds, inflicted
by parties unknown to jury, obviously
by an outraged public acting in defense
of their homes, wives, daughters and chill
dren. In view of the enormity of the
crime committed by said Tom Jones, alias
Frank Hill, we think they would have
been recreant to their duty as good citi-
zens had they acted otherwise"
That verdict will be approved, too, by
very many of the best citizens of Wayne
and other counties in North Carolina.
The sentiment in favor of lynching for
rape is so strong it seems that no official
or journalistic effort to end lynching has
availed to check it. The deputy sheriff
risked his life to save the prisoner, who
was in barn, showing that there was no
official winking at the lynching.
The fact that public sentiment justif1es
lynching in cases OF this character does
not warrant any officer of the law if he
should fail to do everything in his power
to prevent it. In fact, because of the
strong sentiment justifying lynching for
rape. it is all the more incumbent upon
public officials and public teachers to con-
Sinue their efforts to build up stronger
counter sentiment in favor of executing
the criminals through the legal process
instead of by neighbors, instigated by
lust Indignation. The only real way to
end Iynching for rape is to continue to
preach observance of the law 1t is
show remedy? Yes but there is none
other. The suggestions of requiring the
county in which the lynching takes place
to pay large penalty, of Offering re-
ward for those taking part in the lynch
ing, and like drastic measures will not
change the determination of men to lyncn
rapists Those who engage in the lynch
inc are laboring under such Indignation
and wrath that no possible punishment
will deter them. The slow work OF
preaching obedience to law and ORDER and
illustrating its efficacy by making the
courts sure in melting out justice to wrong
doors. will alone gradually lessen lynching
and cause all citizens to leave to the or
DERBY process of the law what they now
too often taken into their own hands.
That remedy will not work? Then there
is none.

DENSE IGNORANCE IN BOSTON

Missionaries ought to be sent to Mas
sachusetts. The Boston Herald quotes
Col. Norman H. Hollowell. "who led &
Massachusetts, regiment in the Civil
War and has been president of the Ma
tional Bank of Commerce for many
years as saying, in opposing sending
Monroe Rogers to North Carolina for
trial upon the charge of incendiarism,
that Gin the South SO out of every 100
white men would not hesitate to lynch a
negro on almost any pretence."
We are sorry for this ignorance upon
any subject displayed by a man of
enough ability to be president of bank.
How can we reach the educated and
wealthy people of Darkest Boston and
make them know the truth about the
South?" asked an eminent Southerner
once residing in Boston. ''They know all
about South Africa and every other por-
ton of the globe except the South. Their
ignorance about it's people is dense, and
as they are Greek scholars with bank
accounts, they are the hardest people in
the world to reach"
We greatly fear that man of the type
of Col. Hollowell is COINED to his idols
and will die believing the horrible things
he says about the South. If he could be
induced to spend month in Raleigh he
would learn the truth. to-wit: that the
white people and the colored people live
in friendliness and in concord, and that
the life of every negro here is as sacred
as in Boston. If he would devote as
much time to learning the truth about
the South as he does in accepting iso-
lated cases as representing the general
sentiment, Col. Hollowell would be
ashamed Of his declaration.
Why not raise fund to send mission
aries to Boston?

THE GOVERNOR ON TOP.

The Governor of Wisconsin has forced
his opponents to his terms. Led by Sen
ator Mcmillan they opposed his plans to
secure fair taxation of railroads. At the
State convention, controlled by Governor
Lafayette, the recollection of Senator
Mcmillan was promised, provided he
would endorse the State platform, which
endorsed the Governors programme The
Senator's friends kicked awhile and said
he would be reelected without that hu-
initiation required in the resolution.
News now comes that the Governor and
Senator have agreed and that the Senator
s.will assist the Governor by endeavor-
inc to secure members of the Legislature
who are willing to support the policies
of the State platform" That is all the
Governor demanded and yet it is tele-
graphed that ''the Governor was forced
into an agreement. The Governor got
the turkey in the agreement.

In a recent address at the Farmers
Congress, Mr.. Oswald Wilson, United
States Statistical Agent for Texas, says
the Southern farmers are 500, 100000
innate for the past three years of the
cotton crop. The spectators and for
eign spinners are inclined always to give
out estimates of an immense crop, and
if their estimates govern prices the far
mers can get less than their cotton is
worth during the Fall months when
most Of their cotton must be sold. The
reports of the Agricultural Department,
though persistentIy discredited by the
agents of the foreign spinners, have come
to be regarded as more nearly accurate
than any other estimate sent out. The
past three years particularly they have
had an appreciable. effect upon the price
of cotton, to the advantage of the cotton
farmers. There is no money appropriate
ed by Congress that is of such value to
the Southern farmers. That Department
ought to be strengthened to the end that
it's estimates shall be as nearly accurate
as the best posted men in every cotton
growing section can make. The appoint
ment of special agents in every county
by the Census Department to locate the
gins and get the exact number of bales
of cotton is the first practical step by
information as to the cotton production
by the Census Bureau.
