mild laxative-in fact, none other is

BARBARISM IN LOUISIANA.

We hesitate to call the atten-
ton of our readers to the spec.
tacle Of barbarlsm and crime
which took place at Monroe, La.
a few Digs ago. 1t hardly seems
possible that such low state of
civilization can exist anywhere
in America as seems to prevail
in Louisiana.
La the case referred to, a SOFT
ed and crazy Negro shot fifteen
or twenty men. The white peo-
pie. in the ignorance and lack OF
self.control, sought to take re.
venge upon the Negro after he
had been shot down by hanging
his body and then burning it.
Nothing more disgraceful than
this could have occurred in Gen.
trial Africa, in Turkey or in the
darkest portions of Asia. The
same class of white people who
took part in burning this Negroes
body object to the Negro receiv
ing education in order that he
may learn self-control, and not
break the law and become muir,
derer. They want the Negro to
remain ignorant and criminal.
and then when he shows the re-
suits of his ignorance they at
once show lack of self control
that is disgraceful and pathetic.
Surely, if there is any place in
the civilized world where educa
ton is needed, it is among the
black people and white people of
Louisiana. Now is the time for

restraining them from using grain
quotations established by the Chicago

owner is Francis j. Minor, formerly

joined it from using its quotations.

not merely in form, but in fact, an in
stitution OF democracy among this
people.
This is the greatest program to
which the nation ever pleIgel its
credit. Its success means complete
readjustment of the relations between
the east and west. From the true
position in the Philippines there
comes the obligation, of leading the
Orient in intellectual and social re-
construction, perhaps the most sig.
nifcant in all history, We must not,
we cannot, prove unequal to this
great task.
THE declaration of independence
has been invoked as unanswerable
reason why the Units2s States should
withdraw from the TSslippines. There
were times in the civil war and many
other times when the patton has in
terpreted the principiss of the lrcla-
ration by the logic ofsexperence and
actual conditions. There is a sense
in which the ideas of the declaration
are fundamentally eternally true In
that sense It is the Obligation of the
United States TO insure life. property
and the pursuit of happiness TO 5000,
900 ignorant and helpless people.
