We have noted this striking differ
ence between the white press and the
negro press In their comment regard
ing the frightful tragedy of the IT,
tanic!
Colored writer's invariably infer or
pre-suppose 1t to have been the work
of God, or at least that God in some
way had some hand or purpose in
bringing 1t about. The white man dis
cusses the matter without any such
inference or prepossession. So far as
can be judged from this latter's writ
ings, God was not in it either direct
", or indirectly. Man alone was re-,
sponsible
Were there enough collapsible
boats? Enough life preservers?, Neg
lect to provide binoculars? ANY,
thing wrong about the mechanism of
the wireless apparatus? II SO. man
was responsible, the error can be cor
rected and the banner OF progress can
be planted higher up the heights.
But II God did 1t, then there Is no
need to try again. Let the army Of
progress camp where 1t Is and never
move a step further Such is the
legitimate consequences Of two radi-
cally different ideas when traced to
their logical conclusion. +
But what has always puzzled us Is
this, is It q necessary law Of mind,
tina. the under man habitually thinks
lof any unforeseen tragedy happening
to the man In advance as having been
sent by some power above. But this
much is certain, had the man In ad-
vance continued to think like the man
farthest down both would today have
been nearer the jungle than they are.
All the progress known today has
been made possible by cultivating the
habit Of looking for the cause Of de-
feat and victory In the only world
known to man. 1t is by reason Of this
fact that man has v conquered the
world. He never would have done so
had he held to the silly belief that his
misfortunes, defeats, reverses and
tragedies were sent upon him by some
God or Devil Mankind will benefit
In countless ways by that frightful
sea-tragedy which we all deplore. ~

To many the sacredness of indi-
vidual rights has no meaning. To
them the home ties have no value:
and for much the majesty Of the law
has no terrors. IT..
The time has come when because OF
the technical skill OF the lawyers. the
fim liam practiced in the courts, the
criminal no longer fears the penalty
OF his crime. Those who should be
vigilant to rid society Of these men
are Indifferent or careless. Laxity in
the court room leaves no home free
from fear that some Of its members
may be violently taken away because
of the prey Of some street tramp or
lawless individual. In this enlight-

and crimes likened unto the days Of

Let our feelings not be constantly
harassed by evil or crime and H.
cense. Let the men who have COM
mitted murder be dealt with accord
ing to the law on the statutes Of our
states. Let the criminal feel the real
force Of the punishment he invites.
Punishment is the only antidote for
heinous crimes. The man who Is so
that he can ruthlessly take
the life he cannot give is also SO
hardened that there is but little hope
that 1enient sentence will help him.
When crime ceases to 60 free because
Of sentiment or money crime will

The duty Of the court is to protect
The citizens, their rights, their prop
erty and their lives. 1t is not Its
duty to lay q premium on crime alb
rogating punishment. We beg the
Judges on the bench, the states at
torney and the honorable lawyers at
the bar to aid the crusade against
crimes by sternly setting their faces
against light sentences and easy dis
charges Of criminals brought before

People who sweat their eyeballs out

a negro business or professional man
has ten chances to reach you again to
one chance for the dollar spent with
the other fellow. Negro grocers, ply.
sicians. lawyers. dentists, druggists
and what not are almost unanimous
in saying that the people who can best
AFFORD to pay for high class service
take 1t to the white man. 1t is from
the mass Of "just ordinary" people
that the negro business and profess
sional man receives his sport. If
these negroes will not patronize negro
enterprises, then let them be put out
of the service Of negroes. Keep tab
on them, and when the time comes to
fill place, put in a negro who will
spend his money among his own PEG.

In news article published some

fact that movement was on foot to
have national conference Of walters
to consider the subject Of negro
walters throughout the country. This
is important. vastly important. and
we hope 1t will be done. -. f

tons: people who manufacture
brooms hold conventions; people who
manufacture clocks hold conventions:

While all this has been going on
among the white people the negro
has been thinking far too long that
he could benefit himself by simply
holding conventions declaring in ia

rest Of 1t. We have gone on with this
nonsense until the negro walters have
begun to lose their bread and butter.
