matter what the provocation. The
innocent frequently suffer, and, it is
my observation, more usually suffer
than the guilty. The white people
of the South indict the whole colored
race on the ground that even the bet
ter elements lend no assistance what
ever to ferreting out criminals of
their own color. The respectable COZ
ored people must learn not to harbor
their criminals, but to assist the Of
ficers in bringing them to justice. This
is the larger crime, and it prOvokes
such atrocious offenses as the one at
Atlanta. The two races can never
get on until there is an understanding
on the part Of both to make common
cause with the law-abiding against
criminals of any COLOR
Not Individuals.
Moreover, where any crime commit
ted by a member of one race against
a member Of another race is avenged
in SUCH fashion that it seems as if not
the individual criminal, but the whole
race is attacked, the result is to exas-
perate to the highest degree race feel
ing There is but one safe rule in
dealing with black men as with white
men; it is the same rule that must
be applied in dealing with rich men
and poor men; that is, to treat each
man, whatever>nis, color, mis- creed, or
his social position, with even-handed
justice On his real worth as man.
White people owe it quite as much to
themselves as to the colored race to
treat we'll the colOred man who shows
by his life that he deserves such treat
ment; for it is surely the highest wis
dom to encourage in the colored race
all those individuals who are hon
est, industrious, law-abiding, and who
therefore make good and safe neigh
bors and citizens. Reward or punish
the individual on his merits as an in
dividual Evil will surely come In

citizen; but it does much. The louos.
and most brutal criminals, those ,or
instance who commit the crime q,
rape are in the great majority mo,
who have had either no education Or
very little; just as they are almosr
invariably men who own no propertv.
for the man who puts money by Oil
of MS earnings, like the man who ac-
quires education, is usually lifted
above mere brutal criminality. or
course the best type of education for
the colOred man, taken as a whole is
such education as is conferred in
schools like Hampton and Tuskegee:
where the boys and girls, the young
men and young women, are trained
industriously as we'll as in the ordin-
airy public school branches. The
graduates Of these schools turn out
well in the great majority of cases,
and hardly any of them become GRIM
inals while what little criminality
there is never takes the form of that
brutal violence which invites lynch
law. Every graduate of these schools
and for the matter of that every
other cOlored man or woman-who
leads a life so useful and honorable
as to win the good will and respect OF
those whites whose neighbOr he or
she is, thereby helps the whole col
Ored race as it can be helped in No
other way; for next to the negro him.
self, the man who can do most to help
the negro is his white neighbor who
lives near him; and our steady effort
should be to better the relations be-
tween the two. Great though the ben
eft of these schools has been to their
colored pupils and to the colored peo-
pie. it may we'll be questioned wheth
er the benefit has not been at least as
great to the white people among Wnom
these colored pupils live after they
graduate.
Be it remembered, Furthermore, that
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-12-04

can take part in the torture of a
human being without having his own
moral nature permanently lowered.
Every lynching means just so much
who nave any knowledge of it, and
therefore just so much additional
trouble for the next generation Of
Americans.
Let justice be both sure and swift;
but let it be justice under the law
and not the wild and crooked savag-
cry of a mob.
There is another matter which has a
direct bearing upon this matter of
Iynching and of the brutal crime which
sometimes calls it forth and at other
times merely furnishes the excuse for
it's existence. 1t is out of the ques-
ton for our people as a whole per-
manently to rise by treading down any
of their own number. Even those who
themselves for the moment profit by
such maltreatment of their fellows will
in the long run also suffer. No more
shortsighted policy can be imagined
than, in the fanc!ed interest Of one
class, to prevent the education of an
other class. The free public school,
the chance for each boy or girl to get
good elementary education, lies at
the foundation of our whole political
situation. In every community the
poorest citizens, those who need the
schools most, would be deprived of
them if they only received school IA
cilities proportional to the tastes they
paid. This is as true of one portion
of our country as of another. 1t is as
true for the negro as for the white
man. The white man, if he is wise,
will decline to allow the negroes in a
mass to grow to manhood and woman
hood without education. Unquestion-
ably education such as is obtained in
our public schools does not do every
thing towards making a man a good
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-12-04

the end to both races if we substi-
tute for this just rule the habit of
treating all the members of the race
good and bad, alike. There is no ques-
ton of social equality" of negro DOM
nation" involved; only the question of
relentlessly Furnishing bad men, and Of
securing to the good man the right to
his life, his liberty, and the pursuit
of his happiness as his own qualities
of heart, head and hand enable him
to achieve it.
Negro Enemy.
Every colored man should realize
that the worst enemy of his race is
the negro criminal, and above all the
negro criminal who commits the
dreadful crime of rape; and it should
be felt as in the highest degree an
offense against the whole country, and
against the colored race in particular,
for a colored man to fail to help the
O1nCerS OF the law i'll uuutlIlS uOWu
with all possible earnestness and zeal
every such infamous offender. More
over, in my judgment, tine crime of
rape should always be punished with
death, as is the case with murder;
assault with intent to commit rape
should be made a capital crime, at
least in the discretion of the court;
and provision should be made by
which the punishment may follow i'm
mediately upon the heels of the Of
Tense; while the trial should be so
conducted that the victim need not
be wantonly shamed while giving tes-
timony, and that the least possible
publicity shall be given to the details.
The members of the white race on
the other hand should understand
that every lynching represents by just
so much a loosening of the bands of
civilization; that the spirit of lynch
ing inevitably throws into prominence
in the community all the foul and evil
creatures who dwell therein. No man
