THE IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR
THE SOUUH.

Naturally, the speech Of President
Roosevelt at Arlington on Friday last
has set some of the Northern people TO
talking about lynching in the South ana
naturally the Southern people resent al
that is said against them. Ihat winch
makes the Southern people SO indignant
and which disgusts them is the self-r1ght-
eous manner in which these assaults are
made. One would suppose from reading
the pharisaical journals at the North
that the Northern people are truly good
and that lawlcssness Is to be found only
in the South.
But the question which seriously con-
Germs the Southern people is this: Is
there any ground for the charges that
these self-righteous people make against
us? Unfortunately, there is. There
have been many 1ynchings in the South
and some Of them have been Of most
brutal character. Recently a negro was
chained to the stake in Texas ana a
great crowd of people gathered around
to see the spectacle, while enraged men
went up to him and applied the torch
here and there to his person and slowly
tortured him to death. One incident IKE
this is a reflection upon the entire South
and all of us The innocent as well as
the guilty have to suffer for it. 1t is
a serious question for the Southern peo-
pie to consider. So long as lynchings
occur we may expect to be criticised, and
we may expect that every such case will
be exaggerated as far as possible and
used against us by our enemies at the
North.
If our enemies say unkind things
about us that is their affair; that which
concerns us is whether or not the accu-
sation is true. If it is false we need
not give ourselves any concern about it.
If it is true we must give it our prayer
full consideration. SANDER will never in
jure the South. 1t is the truth that
hurts.

WALL STREET AND THE STRIKE

Wall Street seems at last to be taking
the coal strike seriously. For the past
ayee,S or two traders in stocks have reaS-
cncd among themselves that the strike
could not last very long and while there
was little disposition to buying stocks
those who held stocks were not disposed
to throw them overheard. But 1t would
appear from the state of the market yes
terday that traders in stocks are beconl-
ing moro or less alarmed. Yesterday
AFTERNOON just before the market closed
there was rush to sell stocks. and
prices declined sharply.
Wall Street is more or less historical,
hut the strike is serious affair. 1t has
not attracted as much attention as would
otherwise have been the case. as the OPP
orators of the anthracite coal mines have
made no attempt whatever to carry on
business. When the miners struck the
rminc-owners simply shut up shop.
But by and by the union called out
those whose business it was to run the
puinps and keep the mines from flood
ing. Most of the men responded to the
call, and then the owners of the mines
had to resort to all sorts OF expedients to
keep the pumps going and to keep their
property from being destroyed. Just how
well they have succeeded nobody seems
to know. Tho owners OF the mines say
that they are working the pumps without
difficulty. On the other hand it is re
ported by the strikers that many OF the
1unaps have stopped running and that as
