AN ALARMING STATE OF AZ
FAIRS IN METROPOLIS OF THE
OLD DOMINION.
Publishers Press.1

Richmond, Va, Jan. 13.-Several
times within the past two weeks
white women and girls have been ace
costed in insulting and threatening
manners by negro men. These Incl
dents have occurred in several sec
t;ons of the city. and with special
frequency along Grace and Franklin
streets, which is a very secluded res
idential section, and invariably in the
late afternoon or early evening.
Heretofore it has been the boast OF
Richmond people that women might
go about the streets unattended and
with perfect safety. Now there is a
kind of panic among the white wom-
en-, who don't dare to move out OF
doors at or near nightfall without an
escort.
In discussing the alarming state OF
affairs, the News Leader makes use
of the following editorial comment:
This is a new condition for Rich
mond and it will not be tolerated
We don't believe the offenders are
our own colored people. The Rich
mond negroes have lived here toe
long and have the habit of decency
and self respect and good behavior
so well established that we cannot
imagine them guilty of such acts. We
are inclined to think the offenders are
some ten or fifteen loafers from out
side who have struggled in here The
first of these who is caught by any
white man will be killed. There are
no two ways about that. Our people
are not used to such conduct and viii
not stand for it. The streets of Rich
mond will be kept safe for womeT
day and night. We want no Atlanta
business here and will not have it.

I'VE are rapidly becoming recog-
nized as 4 power in the adninistra-

ent OF the Anti-Saloon league. at the
First English Lutheran church last
night, ''and this is illustrated by the
large number OF legislators who daily
ask us for the privilege of presenting
our bills In the Indiana general as
sembly. Since the passage OF the
Moore law by tn elast general assem-
bly,, people have heard his name laud-
ed throughout the state to SO great
an extent. that many le eyislators would
have their names placed In like posi-
ton. Four years ago we had to beg
the state law makers to present our
bills. Today we cannot supply enough
bills for the demand. Fifty men have
applied to us for the privilege of pre-
senting our bills dusing the present
session OF the gensfai assembly"
The address. of Rev. Humphreys
was very interesting as he showed the
rapid growth of the prohibition cause
in the United States. He said that
over one half OF the present area OF
the United States was under prohi-
bition control. while the ranks were
making rapid inroads into the other
half. He said that In Indiana there
were four counties who boasted. OF
having not single saloon. they being

ton. There are 666 dry townships In
the state while only $50 townships are
wet He continued to say. that there
had been more progr1hs In the state
of Indiana. In the past year along pro-
hibition lines than In the past ten
years, all probably due to the Moore
and Nicholson temperance laws.

THE BREACH BETWEEN ADHER.
ENTS OF "OILY TOM" TAGGART
AND THE ANTS CONTINUES
TO WIDEN.
(By Demas S. coe.)

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 13.-On the
eve of the second week of the genefai
assembly there is a general feeilng
that both business and party politics
will cut considerable figure in the
deliberations of the legislators, es-
pecially in the lower house, where the
division between republicans and
democrats is SO close that the lead
ers of both sides dare not doze Tor
an fnDtant.
Politically the legislature is in
peculiar way. Not only do the demo
Gratis have to watch the corners OF
everything to prevent the republicans
from planning and executing a coup,
but there apparently is wide breach
between the Taggart and anti-Taggart
Wings of the democrats party ITSELF
II the house where the republican
1nJority is very small, few bolting
rfpublicans might give the democrat
. manipulators the winning hand,
while IL also is true that on purely
politicaI issue some of the democrats
antagonistic to either Taggart or the
anti-Taggart forces might line up
with the republicans. In the senate
the democrats are badly worsted, the
republicans having 81 members TO
their opponents IS. There is no dan
ger. therefore of serious conflict
there. But there are mutterings or
war to the knife between the two
factions of the thirteen democrats.
with united front the thirteen might
not be able to do anything in the way
OF effective opposition for or against
any proposed legislation, but united
they could wage fight that would
prove to the democratic forces in the
state at large that they are here to do
what they can in sticking to Jeffer-
sonian policies However, there is a
division in the democratic senatorial
forces. The caucus placed Senator
Gal Wood In commend as the senate
floor leaders because the dominating
power OF Thomas Taggart so willed
it. thereby sidetracking Senator Ert
Slack, the man who stands head and
shoulders above Wood in brilliancy.
it Is asserted. Slack, by his courag-
eous stand against bossism in his par
ty has earned the lasting hatred OF
the Taggart forces and they deter
mined to give him a lesson. Leaving
Slack and Wood out of consideration,
there are eleven other democrats in
the senate. Six of these stand by
Wood as leader; five will cling with
tenacious loyalty to Slack If occasion
requires There is feeling that
Slack win not openly oppose the Tag
CART forces. He will endeavor to
make his record by standing for or
opposing good or bad measures no
matter whether they emanate from
republican or democratic members.
Recognizing that in politics he is not
lined up with the wing that is in con-
troll of the machinery, Slack probably
will not Intentionally burn his fingers
in political play but will stick to
business.
