was flowing from a cut upon his scalp
and his watch was hanging from his
pocket
Putting the watch into the mans pocket
the officer then set out TO arouse the
slumberer
After some difficulty he got the man
upon his feet. At first there was a tor

that Ellis had TO use his night stick
With the assistance of two citizens the
man was subdued and placed In the patrol

In the police court Orr pleaded not guilty
and was held for trial tomorrow morning
He sent for Commissioner Harrington.

OF any intoxicants
Tomorrow's trial will probably settle

A white girl was outraged, and she
and her brother were murdered, last
week, near Des Moines, Iowa. And
as usual, since no one else could pos
sibly do such thing(?) an Afro-Am-
erican, John Hutchinson was arrested
and accused of the crime. Not only
that one but a dozen were arrested
and it required all the force possible
to prevent a lynching. 1t has now
been proven conclusively that Hutcn-
inson nor any of the Afro-Americans
had anything to do with the crime.
Had this case occurred south of Ma
son and Dixon's, line, there would now
be another murder charged up to the
Southern lynchers, another and, per-
haps, more than one innocent Afro
American would be numbered among
the victims of the damnable, dev-
ilish, degrading lynching habit
that is damning the Southern people
and not few of the, North.
This should serve as warn
ing that even an Afro-American

legal 'adage, no one is guilty until he
is proven to be SO, by jury of his
