Washington, Sept. 25.--L. NJ. Her
shaw, Of Georgia, editor Of the Hort
zon, a monthly "magazinette," pub
lished in this city, makes a signth-
cant comment In the August number
Of his journal upon the recent deliv-
erance Of Dr.. Booker r. Washington
on the 1ynching evil, sent out by the
New York World. Mr.. Hershaw Is
the local secretary Of the Niagara
Movement, and has long been, 100 ed
upon ,ass an trrecohciliable opponent
to the teachings, PHILOSOPHERS ana
methods Of the famous Wizard OF
Tuskegee." 1t is, therefore, note
worthy to find q common ground up
on which these usually divergent
thinkers are able to meet. Says Mr..
Hershaw: .., h
+ con the 10th of August, Mr.. Book
er T. Washington sent to- the New
York World from Baltimore a com
municatfon Of six or seven hundred
words, dealing with the Iynching
question, doubtless1y suggested by
the Springfield affair, though he does
not specifically say so. yy His views,
as here expressed, are th6 cIearesst,
strongest and most courageous he
has uttered since his Chicago speech
at the celebration at the close Of the
Spanish-Afnerican war. The whole
statement is unekceptFonable."
After a decade Of critical examina-
ton, Mr.. Hershaw has finally awak-
ened to what everybody else has long
since found out--that MIR. Booker T.
Washington is 49, statesman of the
most far-reaching, courageous and
constructive type.
However, revelation and CONVEX
sion even at the eleventh hour is bet
ter than dying In ones sins. There
is hope for Mr.. Hershaw. E +.
