total of seventy days in the county
Jail, for having flask in his hip
pocket He was on his way from
Kansas City to visit his aged mother
and his daughter in Blaine county, and
when he got off the train at Watongea.
he WAS arrested on charge OF M.
lawfully transporting liquor into pro.
hibition Oklahoma. He admitted that
he had the liquor, but pleaded that it
was only to be carried through the
State for his own personal and medi-
cinal purposes. But the court stuck to
tho letter Of the law, declared tho Mis-.
sourian guilty, and sentenced him as
stated
The New York case will probably be
considered by most people as mis-
carriage of justice and evasion Of the
law. But we do not see how any per,
son Of candid mind can approve the
Okla homa case. it is probable that the
railroad passenger trains passing
through Oklahoma carry more or less
liquor all the time, perhaps in their
passengers A great many persons,
men and women, are carslck, and 1t
is necessary for them to have little
brandy to steady their stomachs. The
enforcement of a prohibition law in the
manner of the case cited is personal
outrage upon the passenger Of the
train, which seems altogether inexcus
able.
The two cases illustrate anew the
points that the locality where the tria
occurs often has a very important ef

the desire Of the liquor seller to sci
| liquor, law or no law, is offset on the
other hand by the fanaticism of tho
prohi to punish those who have
anything TO do with liquor, whether
| there is sense md reason In 1T or not.

Had this occurred anywhere south
of the Ohio river the verdict would
have been an international scandal.
The press and pulpit of the nortn
would have made 1t so. 1t would have
been thundered from editorial columns
that even Booker T. Washington. edu-
Gator. philosopher. philanthropist. was
not safe from violence at the hands
of the southern white men. and that
he could get no redress In southern
courts of law 1t would have been
insisted that the jury was influenced
wholly by race prejudice and that the
charge laid against DR.. Washington
by his assailant was too fantastic to
be considered seriously by any one
conversant with the life work of DR..
Washington, with his character and
mental calibre.
In the view of the Courier-Journal
the charge made by the defendant in
the case just settled was as fantastic
as 1t would have been If 1t had been
laid against any equally noted white
educator and philanthropist in Amer
lea To believe that Booker T. WASH
ington would descend to peeping
through keyholes it would be neces-
sary to believe that he is mentally
defective, and he has been the sanest
agitator of the negro question. white
or black, who has achieved prominence
as a specialist upon the race question
since the abolition of slavery.

1t is that friendship that when dark
forebodings come creeping into the
soul, driving the light from the eye
and the smile from the face; when the
head is bowed down and the spirit is
broken with the heavy weight of ad-
versity, and man and angels, yea and
God himself seems to have turned
away and hid his face from the poor
mortal, that can even then throw
about the broken body and fainting
soul the arms of love and sympathy,
and lift him up and speak words of
comfort and cheer that shall cause
him to lock UP and take heart again
and once more stand upright as man
among men. This friendship has it's
own reward in fullness of joy that
only those can know who have car
ried it into everyday life, and solved
the problem of genuine friendship In
practical work of good for men,

If the ministers of the gospel would
set aside a time, free from selfish mo-
tives, and throw the church doors
open to the people in a general meet
ing and preach a sermon on race
unity, race patronage of business en-
terprises, and show to the masses
their plain duty. they would be car
rying out the plan of Earthly Saliva
tion,' which would create an everlast-
ing harmony with the spiritual plan.
To do this the minister must be right;
he must set the example; his sermon
will have no effect If he tells the
masses about race patronage and race
unity tonight, and in the morning calls
the white grocer, the white coal deal
er and-the white laundryman to fill
orders for his household. No general
plan of action is effective which has
a negative strain.-St. Louis Central
