sLAUGHTERING NEGROES.


AS indicated by authenticated reports
from Palestine, Texas, there occurred
on Friday, July 20, at Slocum Springs,
in Anderson County, Texas, an affray
between negro and white man which
eliminated IN the killing of eighteen
negroes, and several white men were
wounded, some seriously and one fa-
tally.
The affray originated in a dispute be-
tween negro and white man who had
endorsed note for the negro, who
added harsh words to his declination TO
pay. From this melee the affray spread
until more than two hundred men and
boys armed secured the country shoot
sng negroes at sight who were guiltless
of any offending.
This slaughtering of negroes is very
much like the Ohio method, when white
men of the lower caste shoot and kill
negroes simply because the negro is not
white.
To say the least, this slaughtering Of
negroes is outrageous. It is barbarous.
Il is cowardly.
We of the South should be fair to the
negro. We exact from him conditions
to which he must yield. The negro as
9 rule is conservative, docile and law
abiding, When one Of the race shall
attempt the naneless crime, the penalty
IS death This IS imperative, but while
exacting this penalty for this crime, the
negro must be treated as human being
and not as beast of prey which must
be shot and killed on sight.
In the instances of the nameiess crime
there is no retaliation on any one of the
race. The only life which must be for
feited is that Of the criminal.
Had the ARRAY been confined to the
negro and the white man who originated
the dispute. there would have been no
slaughteriag of negroes, unarfned and
offering no resistance, and the law,
taking its course, would have been all
sufficient. but the racial antipathy swept
away moderation and reason, and our
civilization Is again blackened with al
record of blood.
Are the men who were engaged in
this slaughter Southern men, men who
know and understand the negroes, or
are these men from the North, men who
equalize themselves with the negro, and
when they become offended at some ne
gro are ready TO exterrninate the race,
s4itll FIRE and sworn, as in Ohio
This slaughter should be deplored and
condemned By every good citizen, and
from this scene Of blood there looms up
The naaniiness Of Sheriff Black who did |
all he could to check the massacre and
g protect the negroes who were cowed
with fear. And IN the heroic course of
aeaion BY Judge A. B. Gardner there is
given soaae assurance that the men who
have been engaged in the slaughter viii
be apprehended and held anenabIe to
law
While maintaining the rule of white
supremacy. We must be fair to the ne
gro. who must BE safeguarded In his
life ana his property and as he IS not a
savage, ever bent on rapine and murder,
be must be treated humaneB. As a
faale if the negro IS let alone he will not
attempt to equalize himself with the
white man, and whatever differences
may arise can BE adjusted without re-
sort to race vars and race riots"
which are discredit to the superior
race.
