Members Of Mob Are
Red-Handed Murders
In Address to Ministers Elk
Gov. Northern Declares
Whites and Blacks Bit
terly Hate Each Other.

Ex-Gov, w. ]. Northern took
up the negro question at the
meeting of the Evangelical Min
| is:ers' association Monday morn
ing, and gave expression to
views that caused not little
surprise.
The white people hate the
negroes and the negroes hate
the white people, like they both
hate the devi ," he said. There
is deep grained antagonism ex-
listing between the two races,
and, where the negro is concern
ed. the white people are all ready
to cry with Ben Tiliman, to hell
with the law"
This spirit has existed in
high places, and is alive in the
courts. | recently wrote to
members of the supreme court,
asking if they did not consider
lynching nothing less than MUIR
der. l failed to get an answer,
and it was the same way with re-
gard to the sheriffs.
In resonse TO other letters, l
received an Insulting reply from
a Baptist minister, and, by the
way, that was the only such re-
ply have received except from
a prominent church member in
south Georgia.
believe every one of mob a
red. handed murderer, whether
he be the tail end mem Der or a
leader, and it is my opinion that
all people connected with a lynch
mig, whether they only be onlook-
ers or not, should be sentenced to
serve at least five years in the
pepitentiary.
Il consider people who burn
negroes as savages hot from
hell"
Many are trying to belittle
this negro question, and say it
would be better not to agltate it.
1t is greater than all the other
problems combine d, and should
have every southern mans at
tention. Just now we are laps
ing into barbarism, aud our civil
lization is slipping from US.
Something must be done"
In response to question ask
ed by DR.. T. P. Cleveland, ex-
Governor Northen stated that
a committee of twenty-five
prominent lawyers has been APP
pointed to see what can be
done toward providing speedy
punishment for those who com.
nit assaults, and in this way re-
move one of the main causes of
1ynchings. At the conclusion of
Ex-Governor Northen's adj
dress, the Evangelical associa-
ton endorsed the efforts he IS
making to better the relations
existing between the white peo-
pie and the negroes.

Dear Sir-I had printed copies

AS to my political instincts,
to which you refer in your letter
of Decent Der IS, am quite sure
l have none and my being made
at all prominent in the political
situation is entirely due to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and because of
my taking an active part in the
autumn OF 1904 at his urgent re-
quest and his taking advantage
of conditions then created to
further his own interests. If it
had been a premeditated plot it
could not have been better start
ed or carried out.
About a week before the cleo
tion in The fall of 1904, when 1t
looked certain that the state tick

doubtful as to Roosevelt himself,

day in month at 3 o'clock p. m
So many of our people seem tc
think the word missions" and
missionary" apply to the work
dore ia foreign countries but
that isn't all for they are just as
applicable to our own land as to
the heather country for the same
conditions exist in our land that
are in heather countries Web
ster defines mission" as orga-
nizei effort for the spread of re-
ligion, or for the enlightenment
walton of some community or
religion. The propagation of
a religious faith in a community
where his church has no self
supporting indigenous organiza-
ton" Accepting these de6ni-
tions, we can readily see the
amount of home mission work
tina, is to be done in the United
States both in evAugelization and
education. Mems souls need to
be saved first and then give them
healthy bodies and decent homes
to house those souls; to make in
telligent citizens aud good Chris
tians.
CHARACTERIZATION AND EDUCATION
We claim that the population
of the United States is 8O,O00,00O
in round numbers. OF that
number. there are only about 80,
100000 people who are members
of any religious body, leaving at
least 100000 people who
make no profession of religion of
any kind. Subtracting the Jews,
Mormons, Roman Catholics, and
some small sects that have but
little claim to be called Chris.
tians, we have left hardly 10000.
900 Protestants-about on e
fourth of the entire popu-
lation. There are about g.
100000 children of school age
who are not in any Sunday School
but of the 8O,OOO,0OO, there are
1000, people who are absolute
ly iliiterate that is, they cannot
read or write a word ever so
poorly, for llliteracy is put as low
as that. Of the 100000 child
rem of school age, there are about
4, 100000 " no are not 10 schools
OF any kinds and growing up in
dense ignorance.
How are we going to meet the
above situation does it not be-
come our duty as Christians to
help the church to make larger
efforts TO evangelize and instruct
in every community? This is
truly home mission work.
HOW MAY WE SAVE OUR CITIES
Surely there is money in our
land and to spare for any up
lifting work of missions, for
United States claims to be the
richest nation in the world with
ts wealth estimated at over $l7O.
900, 100000. Yet side by side with
it's wealth we find poverty.
There should be no slums IN our
rich cities, no accumulation of
disease-breeding filth, no over.
crowded, fetid houses, no moth
er's children forced to labor, no
mothers forced to leave their lit
tie children, no children out of
school, or with no place to play.
This, the richest country in the
world allows about 1000, 900 OF
it's children to be injured by un-
natural child labor that they may
have bread to eat, and enrich
various industries. According
to authentic Statistics, there is
an annual sacrifice of 80, 900 baby
lives due to poverty, and $4,000
still-born infants, victims of the
same cause. Think of ii! Every

THE BEST FROM US.

Senator Foraker has succeeded in
getting in some of the best testimony
that has thus far been given for the
soldiers of the 25th regiment, and
having the hearings postponed until
November The testimony given by
Major Penrose. Captain Macklin and
General Burt was as good as could
be given.

TIME WILL TELL.

In the world of education in this
section now, there is but one theme
Howard University. All thoughtful
people are viewing with alarm the pro-
nouncements that are coming forth
from time to time. The announce
ment in the Evening Star that Booker
T. Washington only fayors higher ed
ucation for the ministry, and this too
from DR.. Wilbur p. Thirkield, is max.
ing stout hearts quail. But it is
scarcely possible that the bishops Of
the African Methodist Episcopal
church who stood for the university
two years ago, can repudiate their
stand now and see the institution de.
stroyed.

THE MAN WHO BETRAYs YOU.

Who is an enemy? That man is an
enemy who sl,ulks about in the dark,
back biting, tattllng and slandering
his fellow-men. That man is an en-.

today and uses II to destroy you to-
morrow. That man is an enemy who
sits at your feet and learns the great
truths OF the human race and of the
world and then, like a cold and bitter
serpent, stings to death the being who
has warmed 1t into life, and brought
1t in touch with great truths That
man is an enemy who is ever playing
