LITTLE CHANGE IN THE SOUTH
1t Is Almost Impossible to Overcome
Race Prejudice.


Race Prejudice.
1t is in the rural regions and in
such a circle of the old academic So
ciety that you come upon the southern
problem-that unyielding stability OF
opinion which gives g feeling of des-
pair, the very antithesis of social
growth and of social mobility, says
Walter H. Page in the May Atlantic
Everything lies here where it fell"
said a village philosopher in speaking
of this temper. There are the same
rocks in the road that were there be-
fore the war;"
To illustrate: One morning l went
in Just such a town to a colored col
lege where / heard a very black boy
translate and construe a passage OF
Xenophone. His teacher also was a
ull-blooded negro. 1t happened that
I went straight from the school to
a club where 1 encountered a group
of gentlemen discussing the Imita-
tions of the African mind Teach 'em
Greek,'' said old Judge So-and-So
Now a niger could learn the Greek
alphabet by rote, but he could never
intellfgently construe a passage from
any Greek writer-impossibl I told
him what l had just heard. Read it?
understood it? was black? a black
man teaching him? I beg your par
don, but do you read Greek yourself? ?"
Sir" said he at last, Il do not
for a moment doubt your word.
know you think the niger read Greek
but even if you knew your Xenophone
by heart, I should say that you were
deceived I shouldn't believe it il J
saw it with my own eyes and heard
it with my own ears"

LET OFF FOR COSTS.
Parties Charged With SEEMING Get
Off Easy.

Arson Chubb and H. NJ. Braman,
who were charged with catching
fish with seine, contrary to law,
got out of their trouble rather east
ly. J. C. Naylor, the prosecuting
witness, didn't appear when the
case was called last Friday and the
county attorney consented to dis
missal, STIMULATING that the defend
ants pay the costs, which amounted
to $11.70. The costs, together with
attorney fees, made the fish rather
expensive.
We are sorry that Chubb and
Braman got into this trouble. They
are friends of the writer and we
would have been pleased had the
defendants been somebody else, but
the seining business had become
such a common thing that it had to
be stopped.
No true sportsman will undertake
to catch fish in this manner. Fish
are source of food supply, and for
this reason laws have been made to
protect them.
The penalty is very severe for
catching fish in any manner except
with line and hook, being fine of
not less than $25 nor more than 500
and costs of suit, and six months
imprisonment in Jail; and each fish
caught contrary to law constitutes
a separate offense.
The law further says that the pos
session of seine or net shall be
considered prima facie evidence of
guilt.

BOLD
BAD
BURGLARS!
Morrow Drug Co. Suffer
Again by Burglary.
ABOUT STEENTH TIME.
Twenty-Five Dollars and Some
Goods Were Taken.

For about the steenth time with
in the past two years the drug
store of Morrow & Company has
been burglarized again. This time
it was Wednesday night and the
amount taken was $50. Mr.. Carney,
the manager, thinks some goods
were taken also.
The burglars entered the store by
breaking into rear window. The
money was in the safe, having been
put in there at closing time by Mr..
Carney. He evidently forgot to turn
on the combination, 30 that proba-
bly, all the burglar had to do was
to turn the knob which works the
day lock.
Verify. this store is i'll fated, 80
far az thefts are concerned. Last
year it was robbed four or five
times.
Mr.. Morrow and wife are on the
Pacific coast on pleasure trip.

We hope the catching of fish con-
trary to law will now cease.
Cherokee county had 39,053 acres
of winter wheat this season. There
are 64,196 acres planted to corn and
1,792 acres planted to oats.

The trial of John Norton, who
shot and killed Marion Thomas,
city marshal of Empire City, is set
for Monday, June 16. Norton has
been in the penitentiary for the
killing, having been convicted in
the court of common pleas. which
was afterward declared illegal. He
will now be tried over-just as
though he had never been tried
and the case will be holly contested.
