THE NIAGARA MOVEMENT.

We have read with care and in-
terest the address to the country OF
the Niagara Movement, which ses-
sions have recently been concluded
at Harper's Ferry. West Virginia.
We confess that we are surprised at
the earnestness and sincerity OF
these racial devotees. Their Ian
guage is radical and conservative

There is hardly n coiored person I'm

cial manhood. but what Will be af-

BLIND NEGROES.

We publish in this issue an &C
count of the action of certain color
ed citizens Of Greenwood county,
South Carolina. virtually endorsing
the lynching Of the Negro fiend, by
a white mob in the face of the
protests OF Gov. Hayward and al
most in his presence. The senti-
ment expressed therein will be ap-
proved by every law-abiding citizen
with the exception of that portion
which delegates TO the mob the pow
er OF the law. There is not a man
in South Carolina, In our Judgment
who, does not believe that Bob Davis
was just as sure of the gallows II
tried before a white Judge and by a
Negro jury as he was when placed
in the hands OF an irresponsible
mob.
The lawless elements did two
things. IL executed Davis and Il
assailed the majesty of the law.
The latter offense was equally as
serious as the first crime. The
lynchers. white and black should be

Bot Refused Request to OustSullivan
From National Committed
HELD TURBULENT CONVENTION

Peoria. H.. Aug. 22.-By a vote oi
lO3S TO $40. the Democratic conven
ton placed upon the table the request
Of William J. Bryan for the resigna
lion OF Roger sullivan from tho ma
tionai committee. Despite the fact that
Mr.. Bryan had declared that he did
not wish 10 be endorsed unless Sulli
van was repudiated. the convention
declared him to be the one and only
man capable OF leading the Democratic
party to victory in 1908.
The endorsement of Bryan and the
tabling OF the motion calling for the
resignation Of Mr.. Sullivan came al
the close of a most exciting session
OF the convention, in which there were
several fights. and throughout which
confusion reigned supreme.
The committee on resolutions de-
clined 70 report a plank calling for
the resignation OF Sullivan, and the
debate followed upon a motion made
I'm the convention by Judge Owen
Thompson, OF Jacksonville. calling for
Suilivan's resignation. 1t had been
agreed that each side should have As

form shaking with the intensity of his
feelings. His caustic criticisms finally
lost him the ear OF the convention and
he might never have been able 10 con.
clude his speech II Sullivan had not

Sullivan. who followed Thomson
and who was the first speaker in his
own behalf declared that the ear OF
Mr.. Bryan had been poisoned against
him and that the demand for his resie-
nation sprang from his personal enc
mics.
The end came on motion made by
ex-Congressman Kern. OF BelIeville
that the request for the resignation OF
Sullivan be laid on the table.
The following ticket was nominated:

CoLoRED TROOPS REMOVED.

The trouble at Fort Brown. Texas
between the white citizens and the
three companies of the Twenty fifth
Infantry (colored) has resulted i'm
the request for their removal by
Senator Culberson OF Texas upon
the request of the white citizens of
Brownsville and the prompt com

War Department upon the order Of
President Roosevelt.

The white troops that have been or

The white officers OF the colored
troops maze no secret OF the fact
that the colored privates have been
badly treated by the citizens and
that the collision was 10 be expect
ed. In the melee which is said TO
have occurred one citizen was killed
and the chief of police wounded.
The latter's arm was amputated. A
report was sent over the country
that the citizens of Brownsville had
formed Gordon around Fort Brown
and would kill the colored troops
IL they attempted 20 move.
Had the colored men been ciu-
zens only. we would have regarded
the report seriously. but as fighting
happens TO be these colored troops
business. il seems to us that the
greatest danger was to the obstrep.
erous Negro-hating citizens. rather
than TO the colorcd troops i'm ques.
ton. Suffice Il 10 say that they
have moved and none OF them were
killed by the moving. We are sat
ished that there were other white
citizens at Brownsville. who arc
friendly TO the colored people and
that the agitation was made by the
Negro hating kind.
This did not justify the Washing
ton Post IN its attitude and its Ian
guage in proposing that colored
troops be eliminated from the United
States Army. AS a lighting machine
it is admitted that there is nothing
in the service to surpass the gath
and 25th Infantry and the 9tn and
10th Cavalry. If the War Depart
ment is looking for sheep in soldier
clothes. 1t had better recruit its
ranks from some other OF the many
races Of American citizens in this
country. Colored men are fighters
in uniform and all Of the white
folks in Texas know it by this time.
Let us have peace.
