deal with men who in the first place
were guilty of what was practically the
worst possible form Of lynching-for a
lynching is in its essence lawless and MUIR
derous vengeance taken by an armed mob
for real or fancied wrongs-and who in the
second place covered up the crime of
Iynching by standing with vicious solid
arity to protect the criminals
1t Is OF the utmost Importance to all
our people that we shall deal with each
man on his merits as a man. and not deal
with him merely as member of given
race: that we shall judge each man by his
conduct and not his color. This Is i'm
portant for the white man. and 1t is far
more important for the colored man. More
evil and sinister counsel never was given
to any people than that given to colored
men by those advisers. whether black or
white. who. by apology and conformation.
encourage conduct such as that OF the
three companies In question. II the col
ored men elect to stand by criminals of
their own race because they are Of their
own race. they assuredly lay up for them
selves the most dreadful day of reckoning
Every farsighted friend Of the colored
race in its efforts to strive onward and
upward should teach first, as the most
important lesson. alike to the white man
and the black. the duty OF treating the
individual man strictly on ais worth as
he shows II. Any conduct by colored peo-
pie which tends to substitute for this rule
the rule OF standing by and shielding an
evil doer because he Is a member of their
race means the inevitable degradation Of
the colored race. 1t may and probably
does mean damage to the white race, but
1t means ruin TO the black race
Throughout my term Of service in the
presidency I have acted on the principle
thus advocated. In the north as in the
south have appointed colored men of high
character to Office. utterly disregardng the
protests OF those who would have kept
them out of office because they were col
ored men. So far was in my power, /

pie all their rights under the law. 1 have

ton Of Extreme Radicals
Conceded.

st. Petersburg. announcement
of the impending Jewish reforms has
aroused, as expected, the opposition
of the reactionary elements. Tele-
grams of protest are reaching the en-
peror and Premier Stolypin from all
parts of the empire. The party of
legal order, which formed the ex-
IRENE right of the constitutionalist
parties at the last elections, has
Joined the openly reactionary leagues.
M. Stolypin has received q dispatch
from the headquarters of the organi-
cation at Kiev, concluding as follows:
"The extension of the rights of the
Jews will drive the patriotic Russian
people to criminal measures"
It is stated on good authority that
the reforms already contemplated will
not be abandoned, although 1t is the
intention of the ministry to leave the
main Jewish question to parliament
for settlement.
The constitutional democrats have
entered into an active alliance with
the Jews in the western provinces.
The former will nominate joint par
liamentary ticket with the League Of
Jewish Equality, and expect the sup
port of the Jewish bund.
The election of stronger faction
OF the extreme radicals is also con-
coded.
The constitutional democrats, on &C
count of the extension of their organ
ization, are APPARENTLY certain to re-
turn to parliament as the largest
group, but with the diminished num-
bers on account of the governments
