FURNISH ADDITIONAL REASONS
FOR a "JIM CROW" LAW
T. Il. ROACH ASSAULTED-AN-

Rowdy and drunken negroes are

ment in favor OF ''Jlm Crow" leg

Jams blocked the aisle on number

7. Il. Roach. pass him. Mr.. Roach
demonstrated with him, when the
negro threatened to throw him out
OF the car and struck him over the

cessitating several stitches. igMr.
Roach defended himself as best he
could, but might have been serious-
ly hurt but for the interference OF
Mace Bennett, G.. A. Neikirk and
Others, who choked Williams off. In
the confusing Williams escaped from

We have before us a letter from
Olmstead, which the writer failed to
sign. and the Incidents there mar
rated are given with this explana-
tion. We cannot vouch for them.
The writer says that on yesterday
as number / neared Huger, a negro
man who had been standing up got
tired OF IL and deliberately sat down
In the lap OF a. white lady, where
he remained until the conductor
came In. There were so many ne
groes on the car that the white peo-
pie were afraid to resent his con-
duct, and he announced to the
crowd that there was no "JIm

not do It. however, for the conduct

The number OF criminal negroes
In this section make law OF this

for the hundreds OF respectable ne
groes in this section that so large
a percentage OF their race should be
OF this character, and II IS pretty
tough on them TO be required to
ride with this class OF people, but
81 Is better 10 segregate the races
