MEMORIAL PAGE


OF the Minutes of the Fair River Baptist

When the minutes of the Fair River
Association were printed in The LEAD
Err Office last month, by an awkward
oversight of the pressman, the "Mem-
orial Page" was left out in the make
up" after it had been put in type and
corrected, and the omission was not
discovered until the minutes had been
bound and good portion of them dis
tributed to the churches. The blame
for its non-appearance is all chargeable
to this Office, and in no way the fault
of the efficient clerk, Mr.. Geo. I. Doug
lass. The following is the matter

Counties.
Is Ready to Take Hand in Stamp
ing it Out.
Bonus, Miss, Dec. 16, 1902.

DOltloS [CNs AO9 IcO-'
Mr.. Editor Midnight raiders
have been terrorizing negro ten
ants for both merchant and far
mer along the Homochitto river,
by giving orders to quit the prem
ises. This. Mr.. Editor, is very
wrong. 1t is unjust. to the mer-
chant who earned the plantation
by the sweat of his brow or who
inherited his land; it is an out
rage on the farmer; it is viola
ton of the law and damaging to
public interests. Your subscrib-
err would not speak of this which
is so well-known to every think
ing man were it not for the fact
that there has been an organiza-
tion of farmers in this county.
There have been circulated some
very startling and some very ex-
aggerated reports about negro
preparations for war on the
whites. This came from Amite
county and spread over our own,
with agitators seeking to orga-
nize secret societies among the
farmers. And, like former
chairman McNeily thought of the
Farmers Alliance, the best men
of our farming communities
thought best to fall into line and
try to round up the stampede safe
ly by taking the lead. This they
did by organizing the Farmers
League and adopting a constitu-
ton which was recently publish
ed. However, it seems that all of
their efforts were in vain. That
spirit of lawlessness which fills
the breasts of some men has
causd part at least of our coun-
ty to do that which every member
of the Farmers League and eve
ry good citizen must condemn.
District No. 5 had no representa-
ton at the court house meeting.
District No. has been and is be-
ing ill-advised, and it is hoped
will see the evil they have done.
We know that many good men in
that district condemn the action
of these blinded men. We con-
demned lawless action; we con-
denim it still. If a community
should ever be cursed with riot
GUS negro colony why not ask
the owner of the land to put a
white man in charge ? There is
absolutely no justification in the I
action taken, and it is contrary
to the intentions of the League,
which opposes all night meetings.
I desire to say to the member
ship who have done me the honor
to elect me president, that | do
not believe under the circum-
stances secret organization
could effect any further good. |
l do hope, however, that every |
member will be present on the
first Saturday in January to ex-
press his condemnation of the
acts of the midnight riders.
And at the suggestion of some of
our best members | take the lib
erty to call a mass meeting of all
the good citizens to meet with us
on the third day of January,
when we will give our mutual
pledges to stamp out this lawless-
ness. While / stand ready to
take the lead or do good work in
the ranks, should the negroes
ever be so foolish as to declare a |
brace riot, still I think the ne
gro, like the mule, is necessary
evil and should be treated right
so long as he behaves himself,
| herewith tender my resigna-
ton to take effect on the 3rd of
January, 1908.

MANS RIGHT TO LUORK.

Organized labor believes in and
thoroughly recognizes "the right Of la
Dor to work, Of industry to sell it's pro-
duct freely, of invention and capital
to seek their reasonable profits" It
at the same time insists upon ths right
to dispose of it's patronage as it pleas
es and sees fit. Between these two po-
sitions there is not the slightest incon-
sistency.
A mans right to work does not in
clude the right to compel another man
to work with him or for him. That
"other man" who is generally over
looked by the straw individualist, has
the right not to work.
A mans right to sell his products
freely does not include the right to
compel another man to buy them. The
other man has a right to abstain from
buying them, or to 70 to some other
dealer on the next street.
A mans right to seek reasonable
profits does not inclue the right to
compel another man to pay him that
profit.

DEFEAT OFLOUD.

The recent election had one good
bit Of news for organized labor. It had
to come from the west. Congressman
Loud Of postal reform fame was de-
feated for reelection. Union labor in
California put up a candidate against
him. Union labor succeeded. Mr.. Loud
was defeated by large vote in a Re-
publican stronghold. He was regarded
as one Of the republican leaders in the
house. This did not save him. No band
wagon cry, to support the administra-
ton could be effectively used in this
district. Mr.. Loud had made himself
obnoxious to labor. He refused to raise
the salary Of letter carriers. He was
willing, however. to pay millions year
to railroads for carrying the mail. To
him it made a difference who did the
carrying. A railroad company was the
recipient Of his sympathy, while the
letter carriers, according to his ideas
were altogether too we'll paid.
He also attempted to prevent the dis
tributi0n OF reform literature by pro-
hibitory postal rates. A journal of a
trade union that advertised anything
foreign to the use Of union for which
a journal was published was obliged,
through his efforts to pay the full pos
tai rate, while they formerly enjoyed
the usual newspaper rate.
The president Of the letter carriers
organization was interested in Mr..
LIQUIDS defeat. Often was he insulted
for doing the work Of his organiza-
ton by this same Loud. No one, dur
ing the time that Mr.. Loud was chair
man of the postal committee of the
house ever received respectful hear
ing before his committee save the poor
nder-paid railroads. Labor stood for
him as long as it could. Then it rose
in its might and defeated him over
whelmingly at the polls. Thus is labor
learning to remember it's enemies.
