"SAME AS White FOLKS"

During the recent trial of Will Cole
man, an Afro-American, at Greenville,
Miss, a mob of women of the same
race thronged the court room and
begged the judge to give him UP to
them. They wanted to do him up
same as white folks" The judge de-
clined to grant the request
Our. Caucasian friends would do well
to note the desire of these women to
act "same as white folks.' There is
a good deal in it. A great number of
the crimes of the Afro-Americans in
the South is due to the desire of the
Afro-American to do the same as the
white folks"
The Appeal., 1910-08-13
THE PALESTINE MASSACRE.

That the killing of the Afro-Ameri-
cans in Texas was simply a wanton,
savage butchery, without even the
usual palliations for such occur
rences, is evident from the testimony
of good citizens of the state.
1t was butchery which puts that
of kischinev in eclipse and surpasses
that of Bialystok. The whole coun-
try, not Texas alone, is disgraced by
such a demonstration that a large
portion of the citizens of Texas are
as savage as the Cossacks and as fe-
rocious as the Modoc Indians. Is it
surprising that the Austrian govern
ment is throwing every possible OBJ
stacle in the way of the migration of
her citizens to the South?
The Appeal., 1910-08-13

the letter "i." In North Carolina an
enraged citizen shot neighbor
through the breast, inficting wound
which resulted in. the latter's death
and his own arrest for murder. A
short time later, however, he was
released from custody. In the indict-
ment the clerk had spelled breast
"b-r-e-s-t." The court held that the
misspelled Indictment was not legal
and freed the prisoner.
The Appeal., 1910-08-13

The most sensible train of thought
concerning the Reno fight comes from
the Mayor of Toledo, Ohio:
."Some persons talk as if this prize
fight had decided the question of SD
premacy between the black and white
races he said "Why, I would not
be surprised if Mr.. johnson could
whip Tolstoi. Perhaps he could
whip Mr.. Roosevelt. And | have no
doubt that Mr.. Jeffries in his present
battered condition could defeat Book
er T. Washington"

THE PERvERsE CAUCASIAN ed
TORS. -F..

It is a remarkable fact that the eau.
casion editors persist in speaking OF
the Afro~Americans of the United
States as if they were as Wild, ig-
norant and uncultivated as the tribes
of the jungles of Africa. For in
stances the Washington Herald says:
''The Negro does not know by in
heritance or early training how to
care for himself, either as to temper
ature or sanitation. He still needs
supervision and instruction, even COM
pulsory, in such affairs of self-preser-
vation."
The foregoing is true in reference

-. G. Wells in the
N. Y. independent.

1t seems strange that such condi-
tions can exist in so enlightened a
country as the United States but facts
are facts. And the tendency of such
occurrences is to contribute to the
general contempt for the law which
spreads over the entire country and
imperilling our very civilization. We
spend billions to support schools and
churches; but despite all we can do,
the moral tone of the people seems
to grow worse and worse.
