THE ACELuAMA OF NATIONS.

The st. Louis Republic says: 'The
lawless and brutal blackman, in his
crime against an individual, does harm
to the entire white race, but that harm
is much less than that which he does
to his own.
Negro opinion against criminals
ought to make itself felt in an organ
lied and systematic way"
All of which is true except the evi-
dent implication that the Afro-Ameri-
can has done nothing or very little in
that way. But the Afro-American pull
pet and press have, without exception
protected against and condemned
crime of all kinds. They have done
nearly all in their power.
We might retort and perhaps prove
that the Caucasian-American has done
very little better in suppressing law
lessness. The so-called superior race
has allowed the United States to be
the Aceldama of nations, excelling all
others in the number of brutal mur-
ders. What has Kentucky done with
her night riders, Tennessee with her
thugs? Simply told them. to go in
peace and sin no more-until the next
time.

All persons acquainted with race
conditions in the South are aware
that in that section miscegenation
has prevailed to a vast extent. Pub.
lie sentiment made no protest against
this condition of things, and, indeed,
it was by many Southern thinkers
stoutly maintained that it was in
reality a benefit, that the sacrifice of
the virtue of the black woman was
almost an absolute protection of the
purity of the white woman. This was
regarded as an admirable dispensa-
tion of Providence, showing His high
regard for the superior" race. But
it is evident from an article in one
Of the magazines that such views in
the matter are changing The con-
tentiOn of the article is simply this,
that the young white man, by his
illicit intercourse with the black wom-
an contracts a "social disease" which
by subsequent marriage, he communi-
Gated to the white woman; and that

THE PURE WHITES AND THE

race articles in Pearsons Magazine.
1t is said that there are only 1000

OF New Orleans; all the rest have an
admlxture OF African blood Many are
leaving Louisiana and the Catholic
church record books are being closely
watched to keep them from being de-

been passing for white for more than
nine generations. Many young women
who have been raised in converts
have been adopted in white families

the revelations will cause a vast
amount of suffering among the unfor.
tunate victims; but they deserve little
sympathy for they are victims of a
most unhuman prejudice which they
themselves have promoted to the full
extent of their ability.
And even the thousand "pure white
families will suffer no little annoyance
for who knows which is which?

But they grind exceedingly fine.
