INTEREST IN SEGREGATION.

If there is need of evidence to con-
vince any one of the growth of race
prejudice in this country it may be
found in the widespread interest in
segregation of the races in cities.
The plan of restricting Afro-Ameri-
cans to certain neighborhoods has
been adopted in many of the smaller
cities of the South, but Baltimore is
the largest city in which the plan has
been enacted into law.
Samuel L. West, who's enjoys the un-
enviable distinction of being the au-
thor of the Infamous West segrega-
ton ordinance, announces that he has
sent copies of his race segregation
law from the Atlantic to the Pacific
oceans. He says that there is de-
.nand for information from every part
of the country and he is kept busy
sending copies and. replying to ques-
tons about the working of the law.
The law works injustice to both races,
but West seems to glory in his in
fanny.

SATURDAY, JUNE g, 1912.
NOW, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
THAT?

1t has been generally supposed that
no white man is ever punished for
anything he does to black one in
the South. But get that idea out of
your mind. Away down in Alabama
a white jury has actually convicted
two white men of murder in the first
degree, for killing one black man; and
has given third one, connected with
the killing, life imprisonment And
that, too, in Jefferson county, where
for ten years it has been impossible
to convict anyone of first degree MUIR
der. These murderers enticed the
black man to the woods and shot him
to death, and concealed the body. AS
their victim was only a black man, he
was not missed, and although that
was about year ago, it was only re-
Gently that the crime was discovered.
1t was also discovered that the MUIR
derers had seven other killings to
their credit. Most of their victims
were shot from ambush, some for
grievances, others to close their
mouths; one for the purpose of rob-
berry and one "just for fun" Murder
in Jefferson county has been a weekly
incident for twenty years, and that
region became known as Bloody Beat
o." The good people of that com.
munity have just woke up, and as there
are more than dozen prisoners in
the county Jail charged with murder,
it may be that others will get their
just deserts. To which We say, amen!

Is LYNCHING A CRIME?

The question, Is lynching an acct
dent?" is to be thrashed out in the
Louisiana courts. The point came up
at Baton Rouge when the widow of
Frank Miles, an Afro-American, who
was lynched by Shreveport mob,
filed preliminary proceedings against
an insurance company. The payment
of $500 accident policy is demanded.
The petition does not specify that
Mills was victim of an accident, but
recites that he was found hanging
from the limb of tree in the rear of
the base ball park with a rope tied
about his neck"

one of these houses on your lot and let

Lynching cannot be classed as an
accident. Everywhere in the South,
and in a few localities in the North,
it is a fixed policy to lynch Afro.
Americans charged with crime.
At the general assembly of the
Southern Presbyterian church, at
Bristol, Tenn, there were majority
and minority reports on marriage and
divorce. Both reports urged against
permitting polygamists to enter the
church, either in this or foreign lands
No action was taken regarding the
thousands of Southerners who have
lived polygamous lives with Caucasian
and colored women. Many Southern
churchmen consider crossing the color
line in this way perfectly proper.

Twas a very grateful and graceful
act the presenting to Captain Arthur
H. Rostron, of the steamship Carpa-
thia, the draft for $4,000 at New York
last Monday. And it was equally
graceful for the gallant captain to say
in accepting the gift that whatever
success came to him in the part he
had played in the Titanic tragedy, was
due to the loyalty of his crew. This
shows that his heart was in the right
place.

Some folks insist that there is no
such thing as luck; well, what would
you call this: A woman in Milwaukee
charged with vagrancy, was awaiting
sentence, when she was notified that
she had been made heir to 100000
and an interest in three plantations in
Louisiana. Through her attorney the
charge of vagrancy was dismissed and
she started for New Orleans at once,
to claim her legacy. If that isn't luck,
what is it?

SAUCE FOR THE GANDER, SAUCE
FOR THE GOOSE.

Mrs. Mary Dubal of Birmingham, N.
Y. is believed to be the first suffra-
gist in the United States to be given a
penitentiary sentence for husband
beating. She was arrested on war
want obtained by Mr. Dubal, who COM
planned that in a fit of rage she gave
him a sound beating. City Judge AL
bert Hotchkiss declared that if wom-
en- desired mems prerogatives, they
should also have mems punfshments.
He always dealt severely with wife
heaters, he said, and accordingly SEN
fenced her to three months in the
penitentiary. Now, ladies, will you be
good?

Every day we are more and more
inclined to believe that if to BE a
CHRISTIAN one must:
with all thy soul love God above,
And as thy self thy neighbor love-
few of our white brothers can justly
lay claim to the title. And nowhere
is unchristian action more pro-
nounced, so far as the brother in
Black is concerned, than in so-called
christian institutions controlled by
whites.

Away back in 1884 John B. Kirchell,
of Kingston, N. Y, made a wager to
never cut his hair or shave his whis-

course he lost, and has paid his wager

feet long and his whiskers reach to
his waist. What fool things people
do in connection with politics, and we
may look out for lot of freak bets on
the coming presidential election.
