Hemenway, in charge of the bill,
opposed the amendment because it was
new legislation on an appropriation

which followed Hemenway declared
that State homes not only secure from
the government 800 year for the
care of each soldier but withhold
part of the soldiers pension. thereby

also plain that the Japanese forces out

Russia seems so much alarmed about
those poisoned swords she claims the
Japanese are using, she must have an
idea they are long distance swords.
However, she seems so far to have been
able to keep most Of her soldiers out of
reach of these dangerous swords.

THE NEGRO AND THE NEWS
PAPER.

"COlored people as a class are not
extensive newspaper readers. They
rarely know Of anything that is going
on except when they are told. It was
announced in the daily newspapers
not long ago that Civil Service exam
inatiOn would be held for messenger
boys and out of the hundreds of boys
that made application, not a single
colored boy appeared. Our youths of
today have the same opportunity as
the white youths to take and to pass
these examinations, and it is criminal
the way these opportunities are
neglected. The COIOred American.
1t can be said that the younger ele-
ment are not extensive readers, but
go to the home Of the masses and you
will find them three to one, nearly
every white paper published in the
community, and one to three, or now
and then, will you find a Negro publi-
cation; and on finding the latter. an
investigation would most likely show
that the person to whom it is address
ed is in arrears with his subscription
to the amount of several months,
more or less, while the white publica-
tion in the same home is paid for, if
at all, in advance.
But Bro. Cooper speaks truthfully
when he says cit is criminal the way
these opportunities are neglected"
Many a good opportunity has been
thrown away simply on ACCOUNT of
negligence, and the sooner our young
people open their eyes to these facts,
the sooner and better will our condi-
tiOns become as a people.-Afro-

ANARCHY IN OHIO.
The Growing Sentiment of Lynching
in all Sections of the Country.

The deplOrable state of anarchy
now existent in Springfield, Ohio, in
vests with peculiar interest a series
of editorial expressions regarding
Iynchings in the United States, COLA
ted by the Pen and Pencil Club, of
this city. 1t will be remembered that
a high ecclesiastical prelate,. Bishop
Brown, of Arkansas, a few days ago
gave utterance to sentiments far more
favorable to the idea of lawIessness
and lynchings than could reasonably
be expected from so distinguished a
subscriber to the doctrines Of Chris
tian ethics.
That all thoughtful men are be
coming alarmed at the rapidity with
which the irebrands of race hatred
and contempt Of law are Overspread-
ing the land, may be easily inferred
from the following editorials clipped
at random from representative jour
nails, religious and secular, located in
widely separated sections of the coun-
try. Note first the powerful indict-
ment charged by a leading southern
journal, the Vicksburg Herald, called
forth by the lynching of a colored
man, HOlbert, and his wife Accord
ing to an eye witness writing IL that
newspaper, they "were tied to trees
and while the funeral pyres were be-
ing prepared were forced to suffer
the most fiendish tortUres," and '@tO
hold out their hands while one finger
at time was chopped off and dis
tributed as souvenirs" while 'the
most excT'uciating form of punish
ment consisted in the use Of a large
corkscrew, which was bored into the
arms legs, and body Of the man and
women, and then pulled out, the spir-
ais tearing out large pieces of raw,
quivering flesh every time it was
withdrawn" OF this the Herald says:
"If there is any hell, and if it is the
abode of devils, they must have turn
ed green with envy of the genius of
their brethren on earth
Who is responsible for the state of
the public mind which renders such
awful tragedies possible? Here is
what the Springfield Republican has
to say:
There is responsibility for this
fearful affair which approaches very
near to men who speak as does Bishop
Brown, and it rests heavily on men
of the class of Gov. Vardaman, of
Mississippi"
Similar views are expressed by the
Southwestern Christian Advocate, or
gan of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, for it says:
I'VE firmly believe that the Varda-
man gubernatorial canvas is at the
bottom of this heart-sickening affair.
He went in to convince his fellow
citizens that the Negro is, if any
thing, less than human. Many who
heard him turned from the speaker
convinced that the Negro is unworthy
of consideration and has no rights
which they need respect"
