Haired Against Negroes
BY Poor Whites Comes Purely From Envy---The Race
Question and the "Jim Grow" Car Law.

significant to the thinking Negro.
The Nashville papers are saying
that the Negroes in Knoxville and
other cities are riding, which is
not fact, and the Knoxville pa
pers are saying that the Negroes
in Nashville are riding which is
not true. Some of the Negroes in
all of the cities are riding, but they
express themselves as feeling very
much humiliated by having to ride,
but ride because of the distances
which they must travel to get to
their work, etc. There is no good
reason why such a law should be
passed. There is no desire on the
part Of the Negro to be with the
the white people any more than
there is on the part of the whites
to be with the Negro; but what
the Negroes object to is the cur
failing of their privileges, wicked
prescriptions and saucy conduct
ors. Let them give the Negroes a
car and keep all the white people
off of it, then the races will be
separated. AS the cars are being
operated now, the white people are
riding all over them from one end
to the other, but the Negro must
be crammed in a little corner in
the rear end, half a dozen on one
seat and pay the same fare, this
he will never submit to.-Sunday

charges with having alienated the
affections of Cans from her.
The answer and suit for damages
were both filed by George w. Cam
eron, attorney for Mrs. Cans.
She denies in the answer that
Joe has conducted himself as a
dutiful husband, and declares that
he would absent himself from his
home and her society for days at a
time, never letting her know his
whereabouts and causing her great
anguish and suffering She also
declares that Cans has been un-
faithful. naming Martha Davis as
correspondent, and stating that
Cans and the colored teacher have
been intimate in Baltimore and
Washington. Two letters which
will prove allegations are in the
possession of the wife, according
to the answer.
Until recently, she admits in the
answer, Joe gave her enough
to eat and to wear. He also
supplied her with diamonds, she
states, but he pawned the jewels
at his pleasure and they are now
out of her possession.
Since November 10, 1904, when
Cans alleges his wife was unfaith-
full, she has received numerous
letters of an affectionate character
from him, the answer asserts, these
letters beginning Dear Wife
and ending Love and Kisses"
She asks that the divorce suit be
dismissed. In her suit for dam
ages for the alleged alienation of
the affections of her husband she
states that while they lived at 1926
Argyle avenue the school teacher,
Martha Davis, caused him to
abandon his wife and alienated his
affections.

Negroes Make Bold Hoid-up.

Des Moines, Ia, August 4.-Ov-
er 5000 was the haul made by two
Negroes who entered a business of.
fee in the heart of the downtown
district during broad daylight yes
terday afternoon and perpetrated
the boldest robbery committed in
years in this city, leaving S. T.
Roberts, their victim, insensible
on the floor, and making their es-
cape before the affair was discov-
ed.
The amount secured consisted
of $415 in cash and two checks ag-
gregatipg over $500, which Mr.,
Roberts was preparing to take to
the bank. The holdup occurred
in the office of the Des Moines
Building company at 82O Locust
street, in which Mr.. Roberts was
alone at the time. The Office is in
one story brick building just east
of Ninth street on the south side
side of Locust, Immediately in the
rear of the saloon on the south
east corner.
Mr.. Roberts had been footing
up his account preparatory to 60
ing to the bank and had placed
the two checks, 1890 in currency
and S25 in gold, in his bank book
which he had placed in his pocket

and was just starting to leave the
Office when the two Negroes sud-
denly entered the door and walked
to the back of the room where he
was standing. The men had evil
IDENTITY been watching him through
the window and had seen him
place the mouey in his pockets.
The Negroes entered, demanded
the money, proceeded to take it,
and then, with a blow, rendered
Mr.. Roberts insensible. They
have disappeared. There is no
clue.

The real trouble in this country
between the races seems to be pc
ouliarly located. The man who
carefully studies the causes and
the effects of the every day trouble
between the races must conclude
that the best white people are not
responsible for such troubles, ex-
cept in very remote way; that is,
they, because of popular senti-
ment, do not express themselves
as they see and feel, on passing
axeats, There is a hatred among
the lower whites against the best
\ Negroes and it comes purely from
,nvy, because the Negro, the best
egro, the tax paying Negro, the
kself-respecting and intelligent Ne
gro has outstripped them, and now
stands next to the best white peo-
pie. This we admit is an envia-
BILE place and worth contending
for; but the class of Negroes nam
ed have it by great odds. Now, if
merit is recognized and the best
white people speak out along this
line, the question will be settled,
but as long as the best white peo-
pie remain out of politics, give
ground to these popular mobs, ir-
responsible persons, the condition
is not going to be changed. We
were approached the other day by
a poor white man who sought to
rent store house on the rear end
of our lot. We replied to him that
we did not want to rent. He stood
at our front door gazing inward
and finally asked DO you own
this place?" We replied yes. He
said "Were you not a slave?"
"Yes,' we replied. He said, "Well
we need not charge the govern
ment with our condition, we were
born free and here | am now living
in an old storehouse with no floor
ing in it, with a shoe shop in the
front and my family in the rear,
and you, born a slave and living
in your own beautiful home shows
that it is in the man and not in
the government" "a man is
what he makes himself" The
Negroes of Nashville are paying
about ten per cent. of the taxes,
and are entitled to better treat
ment. The discrimination of this
city is criminal and the best white
people should assert themselves in
seeing at least that the Negro is
treated as citizen when he de
serves such treatment. The "Jim
Grow Car" law passed by the re-
>cent legislature is a direct stab at
lie Negro and the Negro knows it,
t least all sensible Negroes do,
and are walking it out, which is
commendable and right. The
newspapers of this city are saying
very little about the. Jim Grow

A special from Lima says: Long
before the civil war John Ran
dolph, Roanoke (Va.) planter,
freed his slaves and purchased
lands for them in what is now
Mercer county. The whites of
the vicinity rose up against the
Negro and drove them away, with
out making any compensation for
the lands, it is asserted. Now the
heirs of these former slaves are
making a fight for the land, and
the farmers are greatly troubled.

kind Disseminated against on ac-
count of race, color or previous
condition. He said:
THE progress of the human
race is very slow. We are not adj
vancing with the sweep of an
eagles wings, but rather with the
slow and laborious crawl of a snake.
Though the world has been in ex-
istence for aeons, and though we
may boast of the colossal achieve
ments in industrial and in econom-
ic realms, we are now only in the
infancy of the worlds growth
This assertion is evidenced by the
existence of the different preju-
dices fourishing today.
"What is prejudice? The
etymology of the term clearly de-
fines prejudice as an act of judg-
ment before the requisite knowl-
edge and the necessary facts have
been gathered. Prejudice is indi-
genous to barbarism, and barbar-
ism is characteristic of distruct.
Prejudice has come down from the
dark ages. For barbarians, the
confines of home are co-extensive
with the lines of tribal or racial
affinity. The first prejudice exist
ed between family and family;
then between tribe and tribe. To
be the son of another tribe marked
one an enemy. AS long as men
did not come together, they would
and could not learn to know one
another. Ignorance was then, as
it is now, the futile mother of pre-
judice. There are national preju-
dices. But nowhere has the dog
matte spirit of prejudice been al
lowed unchecked play to greater
extent than within the sacred pre-
cincts of religion. Nowhere
abound so many and such obstin-
ate prejudices as in the .shrines
where alters flame and the sweet
frank incense of devotion curls its
devout fragrance heavenwarI."
A race which has never been op-
pressed can have but little idea of
the weight of depression under
which it places those so unfortun-
ate. To be barred from privileges
which other men enjoy and to
which all men have a God-given
right, simply because you are who
you are, gals at times almost past
endurance. Then it is that to the
oppressor's treatment seems moth
ing short of hellishness.-Ex.
