SAYS SOME c0LORED MEN
TRYING TO HELP wHITEs.
A Sensible Open Letter by J. H. M. Pollard
He Urges all to Abide by the Laws and
Refrain From Violence.

To the Editor: The tragedy which oe-
CURED on the S. A. l. Tuesday, hurrying
one soul into eternity an leaving the
other at the point of death is of such a
character as to call forth the condemna-
ton of all right minded men.
l came from South Carolina little
more than four years ago to cast in my
lot with the people of this State and to
strive earnestly in every lawful way to
aid in building up and not pulling down.
Some colored men are trying to help the
best white citizens in building the State
along true and right lines, and have no
sympathy for the vicious and law break
ing class. In my travels all over the
State the railroad officials are uniformly
courteous to all their patrons and only
harsh when necessity demands it. / have
seen some of them under very trying
conditions, great deal more patient
than l would have been under like cir
cumstances. Capt. Clements is a courte-
Gus and chivalrous gentleman and al
ways on the lookout for the comfort of
his passengers, and Porter Mitchell is a
brave and fearless man, attending every
call of duty.
The following letter contains advice
given by me a short time ago and may
be worth publishing at this time for the
benefit of others.
Respectfully,

The following open letter from Supreme
Chancellor, j. H. NJ. Pollard, needs no
explanation, apology, or comment from
us, and will be of interest to those who
read it. and furnish much food for
thought:
Office of Supreme Chancellor,
21S South Swain Street,
Raleigh, N. c., July Il, 1902.
P. P. xxxviii.
All sorts of letters come to this office
of which the following is a sample:
In Jail, July 10, 1902
Dear Brother: l am confined in Jail
and have been for five weeks. | am
charged with murder until it is proven
In this my sad hour of distress and
grief, I am compelled to call on you all
for help. l am financial in my subor-
dinate lodge.
While sad is the hour that I write /
hope you will give this your immediate
attention.
With greatest respect, yours in II. c.
& B. c. W."
l wish to make a few remarks on the
above letter. The writer is not known
to me and this is no appeal in his be-
half If he is worthy and his cause is a
just one he will receive some assistance !;
but that must be first ascertained. But
wish to admonish the members of the
order to live as law-abiding citizens and
to keep out of trouble, unless actually
forced into it by circumstances which
they cannot control 1t is a notable fact
that too many members of the race suffer
themselves to get into trouble on the
slightest provocation. The principles of
the order demand that all should be
friendly, cautious and brave. not only
sometimes, but at all times and in all
places. 1t is more manly sometimes to
suffer under great provocation, without
any attempt or resentment than to in
jure another or take human life
While the members of the order have
taken a solemn obligation to stand by
one another they have made an excep-
ton in that obligation and no man need
expect the members to stand by him when
he is violating the laws of the coun-
try or living in open defiance of the
regulations of society
Some men get into trouble by asso-
ciating with bad companions and in
dulging in games of chance and habits
of drink and other vices; some men
make trouble for themselves, because
they think it manly and brave to do so;
some men carry deadly weapons and
make use of them for the most trifing
offences, and then when the trouble
comes they appeal to their former friends
to aid them--not in securing justice, but
in escaping just punishment. We be-
lieve that the guilty should be punished
and that their friends would be doing
injustice to society by aiding them to
escape punishment. Gentlemen, count the
cost, before you do the deed.

JACK THE KILLER CASE

Watch Fails to Identify
Mason To-day.

Boston, Nov. 7.-Prompted by the find
ing In a pawnshop here Of the watches
of Agnes McPhee and Clara A. Morton,
the two women who have been murdered
. In assault cases In this vicinity, the
police are working with ell their energy
to place II possible the responsibility for
the crimes.
The paWnbroKer, James Nemser, In
whose store both the McPhee and Nor
ton watches were found was at police
headquarters to-day, and repeated his
stories about the watches. after which he
started for the East Cambridge Jail to
sec Mason, but he failed to identify him.
At the jail Mason was placed among six
other men and Nemser carefully scru-
tinized each one. He picked out one
man as the person who pawned the
watch, but it was not Mason.
The negro who has charge of the house
where the Masons live was about his
work, as usual, to-day, although the
police claimed that he had gone away.
He said to-day that he was at his post
yesterday and could have been found
there by the police II they had looked for
him.
In probing the case at Waverly the state
police have found evidence that Mason
had made at least two attempts to have
women meet him at night at 1.-THE Oaks, -

walton not far from the Mclean insane
asylum, where Mason was a patient and

petition Of wholesalers, which requires an
affixed amount Of stock continuously car
ried to entitle dealer to membership
and levies upon and collects from whole
sale dealers a penalty in case they make
sales to consumers directly or to retail
dealers not eligible to membership IN the
association, Is unlawful. ,*
The supreme court has administered a
knockout blow to the Nebraska Retail
Lumber Dealers association. The de-
cision Is a substantial Endorsement OF the
state anti trust laws and the court further
declares that members of the association
can be held liable for damages.
This suit was brought by Anderson, Wh<
was formerly in the lumber business a
North Platte against j. c. Cleland' O.
Fremont as secretary Of the association
itself and three dealers named Carroll
Black and West. who were In business II
North Platte. He claimed that they nae
issued a circular to wholesale dealers
warning them not to sell lumber to him
declaring that he was not regular dealer
He claimed that by reason OF this clrcu
lar he was forced out OF business an(
driven into bankruptcy.
Upon trial in the lower court Messrs
Black and West escaped liability by show
ing they were not members of the asso
citation. but judgment was returned 70
several thousand dollars against Cleland
Carroll and the association.
It appeared that Carroll was a member o
the association Of which Cleland was sec
rotary and that the association attempt
to prescribe what constitutes q regula
dealer in lumber, one who carries stool
Of $4,000 feet Of lumber and maintain
yards and an office continuously.

But the Air Of Old England Failed Him

: The brain Is composed Of thousands Of
little cells and these contain a vital sub
stance which is used up during active

With many people, coffee drinking en-
cites the brain and prevents it from get
ting the necessary rest, and breaks down
ard destroys the cells and the soft, gray
matter therein, nor does coffee supply the
2 food to replace these cells and this ma
Z turally leads to mental exhaustion and

middle western states for president in the

eral of the most astute politicians east

as against the increasing shadow being
cast by David Bennett Hill in the Allan

into the center of the stage at this time
is regarded as most important.

dent Of Ottumwa, Iowa; Danfel"J. Cam
pau Of Detroit, Mich. and G. A.. Hoffman
formerly chairman Of the Iowa state cen
trail committee Of the democratic party
were engaged in conference with Mr.
Stone. It Is significant that the returns
from Missouri on Tuesday brought great
cheer to the heart to each ant
