PRO-zULU

johannesburg, July 2S.-Des-
pite the governments restrictions,
the contents of Mr.. Keir Hardie's
extraordinary Zulu letter, in which
he said that he hoped the time
would come when the blacks
would be able to defend themselves
as against the whites, are known
to hundreds OF educated Kafirs,
and are being rapidly disseminated
throughout the Transvaal.
The result is not only to en-
courage the rebels in the field, but
to inhame the spirit of discomfort
throughout the Rand.
The news of the murder and
mutilation of Mr.. Veal by Mesini's
men has exasperated the white
population of johannesburg al
most beyond endurance.
The women residing in the su-
burbs are devoting the afternoons
to revolver practice.
One report has it that combi-
nation of black and yellow is form
ing, the Chinese who have been
working in the mines and the ma
tive Zulus.

Little Rock, Ark, Attorney Gen
eral R. l.. Rogers threw a bomb
into the camp of the State Democ-
racy with an opinion that the poll
tax amendment to the state consti-
tuition was void because it had not
been legally adopted, This amend
ment was declared adopted ten
years ago. 1t provided that every
voter must pay ii tax of 81 before
being entitled to vote. 1t virtual
ly disfranchised 10000 Negroes in
the black belt. Democratic leaders
said the opinion would increase
tember election by 10000.
The Colorado statesman., 1906-08-11

A young colored woman up in
New Jersey recently committed
suicide. but the act was deferred
until she had worked for and
bought herself a 500 lavender
dress. And when this was secure
life's aim and ambition were at
tanned and there was nothing more
to do but to shuttle off this mortal
coil. There are hosts of other pov-
erty stricken men and women pur-
suing the same suicidal policy in
the mad effort to "shine" with
those means are unlimited.
The Colorado statesman., 1906-08-11

Montgomery, Ala, July 17.-At
Carlowville, Dallas county, this
afternoon, Joe Matthews, young
white man, was shot to death by
Phillip Washington, colored, Mat
thews and his brother, Sam, went
to the home of the colored man for
some purpose not ascertained As
they approached the house the
colored man appeared in the door
with a shot gun and fired, the load
tearing away part of Joe Matthew's
head. Washington made his es-
cape. Every mans home is his
castle and this colored man evil
dertly knew it. That these white
men went there for no good pur-
pose is evident. Colored men are
learning white folks sense. Wash
ingto did just as white man
would have done and these two
would-be law breakers have them
selves to blame for their undoing.
Had they followed Washington's
example and stayed at home, the
unfortunate tragedy would not
have taken place.

What Thomas E. Watson said
in recent issue of Peoples Par
ty paper:
Il believe in the jefferson creed
with all my heart and think that
all the aims of good government
can be covered by that one sen
tence, equal and exact justice to
all men,"
"To the rich and the poor; to the
farmer and merchant; to the bank
er and the miner; to the scholar
and the ditcher. And to empha-
size here what 1 have been so mis-
represented and blamed for saying
before, that this republic will nev-
er reach its true grandeur as long
as a dead line is drawn between
one section and another, one color
and another.
81 yield to no man in my pride
of race. [ believe the Anglo-Saxon
is stronger in the glorious strength
of conception and achievement
than any race of created man; but
from my very pride of race, springs
my intense scorn of that phantasm
manufactured by the political
bosses and called Negro domina-
ton
Socially | want no mixing of
races. 1t is best that both should
preserve the race itegrity by stay
ing apart. But when it comes to
matters of law and justice, [ de-
spise the Anglo-S Saxon who is such
an Internal coward as to deny le-
gal rights to any man on account
of his color, for fear of Negro
domination.
"Dominate what? Dominate
how? Dominate whom"
''It takes intellect to dominate.
Haven't we got it?
1T takes majorities 10 dominate.
Haven't we got them?
at takes wealth to dominate.
Haven't we got it?
"It takes social, financial, legis-
Iative, military, naval, ecclesiasti-
cal establishments to dominate.
Haven't we got them.
For a thousand years the whites
the Anglo-Saxon, have had all
these advantages. Armed with
4 the garnered wealth of ten centur-
les, equipped with all the revenues
of commerce, all the sources of po-
\ litical power, outnumbering the
blacks eight to one, and continual
ly gaining on them, what words
can paint the cowardice OF the An
glo Saxon who would deny equal
and exact justice, to the ignorant,

helpless, poverty-cursed Negro in
whose ears the clank of chains
have scarcely ceased domination.
Away with such contempitable
timidity of counsel.
Right is everlastingly right.
Wrong is eternally worng."

Cessive zeal in pardoning prisoners,
has made him the subject OF much ri
dicule through his attempt to release
from the county Jail a state prisoner.
The mayor, under law, has the right to
pardon prisoners held under city ordin-
ances. and Dahlman, since he came
into office six months ago, has been eX-
ercising his prerogative with unusual
freedom. But when he ordered the re-
lease of a prisoner from the county
Jail the sheriff returned the order with
the sarcastic inquiry: ''Do you think
you are governor of Nebraska?"
