of describing lynching mobs as made
up OF the foremost citizens OF a town.
In no case that l know OF, either
South or North, has a mob been made
up of the best citizens; but the best
citizens have stood afar off 'decrying
the mobs'-as Springfield man told
me piously-letting it go on"
Yes, MIR. Baker is right; the best cit
izens do not take a part in lynchings
under any circumstances, but the best
people are often the most indignant
over the outrage for which the crimi-
nal is lynched. 1t is not the cruelty
wreaked upon this criminal that is
deplorable. In nearly every case. he
deserves all he gets. Neither must we
blame too severely the particular in-
dividuals who chance to do the exc
cuting-for not every lynching is real
ly murder. If they are not the "best
citizens" they are at least doing
what many of the best citizens want
done. The whole trouble lies with
our courts, with our system of jury
trial which allows murderers to 20
free. The best people and the worst
people, too, lose respect for the justice
OF the courts and they naturally hold
the opinion tnat while mob law is
bad, it is yet better than no law at
all.

Washington Post
Some of the good Democratic pa
pers in Indian Territory are up in
arms, figuratively, because the Ham
lton Statehood bill makes no pro-
vision for separate schools for ne
groes. They are Southerners in sem
timent, at allevents. ."-Montgomery
Advertiser
Available facts do not warrant the
conclusion that separate shools for
white and negroes are a distinctly
Democratic idea. That plan is, and
long has been, in operation in both
Republican and Democratic commun-
ties. 1t was adopted to some extent
in the North in both Whig and Dem
oeratic States before the Republican
party was born. But the greatest
outrage in this connection we have
ever known was perpeerated by both
the Republican and Democratic par
ties in one of the old Northwestern
States for long period prior to 1870.
In that State there were many free
negroes before the war OF 1S61-5, ,and
not u few of them accumulated con-
siderable amount OF taxable proper
| ty. But the State made no provis-
ion for the schooling OF their children
They were taxed to support the
! schools from which their children were
| barred-a policy as contemptibly
mean as it was regardless of the in
terests Of all the people.
So far as the Post is advised, the
SEPARATE school plan is not only pre-
ferred by both Republicans and Dem
ocrats, but is entirely satisfactory to
nearly all of the negro parents. All
that they ask is that their children
! shall have equal educational fscili-
| ties with those OF white parents. And
it is sound policy to give them that.
AS to schools in any new State, what
| matters it whether or not the enab-
ling act provides for separation?
Each State is free to make its own
school laws.

The Minority.
Charlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer.
The following editorial from the
Raleigh Times is entitled to public at
tention and general thought:
1T is no pleasure to be in the minority
and have things go againt you and not
be able to point with pride to what has
been accomplished. But the minority po-
sition is not without it's rewards, not
without its responsibility. It's eas sy to
drift with the big side, and gallop with
the crowd. But what does this amount
to after it is done? A man can as i'll af-
ford to surrender his integrity for intel
lect as for morals. To surrender either
leaves man an ill-rounded individual.
General Ransom was always in the
minority and yet he was a most success
ful Legislator. He often had the sympa-
thy and active cooperation of his politi-
cal opponents for the reason that he
showed rare tact, good social points and
gentlemanly instincts OF the highest order.
He found it necessary to exercise his in
telligence in the most vigorous and care
ful manner, in order to win over to his
side those who would naturally oppose
him from party point Of view. So the
very difficulties under which he labored
lpeu W ueSe1oPe IL great IuiHu anu u
big man."
To begin at the beginning of this:
What difference does it make about
being in the minority? None at all.
The folks who are right are generally
in the minority-this has been the
worlds history. But he who has q
quieted conscience, who is right with
himself; he is u great big majority
among the peoples of the world, and
it he is a minority numerically, it
should not be matter OF concern.
To be in the minority! What boots
it? To be right is the only thing that
counts!
Our contemporary refers to Gener-
al Ransom. He said on one occasion
perhaps on many-that he looked
only to ''results"-that was his word

lynching Treated SaneIy.
Charlotte New {

SA''Ai"seS Wv
Again we have an instance of a
Northern man who has come South
to see for himself and for the country
the kind OF people that are here and
the conditions which prevail respect
ing the relations between the races.
And again we have the usual result.
Mr.. Ray Stannard Baker has made
a study Of ''lynching towns" in the
South and in the North. In December
McClures Magazine he describes the
towns of Statesville, Ga, and Hunts
vile, Ala, where lynchings have taken
place, telling of the kind OF people
who live there, the conditions OF af-
fairs before the lynching, in what es-
TEEN human life and the courts were
held, and SO forth. He does the same
now for two typical Northern ''lynch-
ing towns" Springfield, Ohio, and
Danville, Illinois. A saner, more COM
prehensive, and more significant pre-
sentation of the whole subject OF
lynching has not been made, and
Mr.. Bakers work ought to have a
good effect in allaying some of the
prejudice against the Southern peo-
pie. Note this remark, for instance:
Indeed, there are everywhere evi-
aences that the negro problem is
creeping northward, not slowly; and
that as the proposition of colored
population increases, the Northern
States will be compelled to meet ex-
actly the questions with which the
South is now struggling-disfran
chisement OF the negro, lynching, and
socialequality in all its various forms.
And the Northerner, with little under
standing of the negro character, is
not likely to be as patient as the
Southerner has BEEN"
But it is not in comparing the North
and the South and in being ''fair to
the South" that Mr. Bakers articles
are strongest. The main strength OF
his work in the the treatment oflynch
law itself and the causes which any
where among a civilized people must
inevitably lead up to it. He does not
excuse it Or condone it. The heroes
of his story are the Alabama Judge
who swept down upon the lynchers
and the Illinois sheriff who with his
wife and one deputy defied and de-
feated a mob OF, 1900. He tells us
also, what we already know, but
what it is we'll to say over and over
again:
