IOWA jim CROW BILL.

Last week a democrat representa-
tive introduced bill in the legisla-
ture prohibiting the inter-marriage of
the races in Iowa, claiming that the
Jack Johnson episode was the cause
of him introducing said bill. We are
indeed very sorry that the question
of color should ever again be raised
upon the free soil of Iowa. For the
very first judicial decision that Iowa
ever passed upon when she was a
territory was by our territorial ju-
dicial judge, which was in favor of
the colored man, and Iowa was the
first state to wipe off Of her statute
books the infamous black laws, and
now, after fifty years Of progress and
intelligence, to attempt to go back to
the Jim crow laws against the black
race or any other race is un-Ameri-
can, un-Christian and violation Of
the constitution, a wrong against the
right of liberty of the individual.
While I am unalterably opposed to
the intermarriage of the races, yet l
do not want any laws preventing the
rights of any other man. do hope
that common sense and better judg-
ment will prevail and such law will
be defeated

BUXTON BRIEFS.

At Mt. Zion Baptist church on
Sunday morning we started the day

school, and an interesting study Of
the lesson by all the classes, and with
our newly elected organist, Miss Elsie
Lowery, presiding at the organ and
the Sunday school choir, with Mr.. G..
W. Cheatham as chorister, in place
we enjoyed some very good singing.
This was followed by the morning
service, in which the pastor, Rev. F.
B. Woodland, preach, All excellent
sermon from End Samuel 9:13. To
say the least it was: a sermon so full
of truths and presented with such

gave another very helpful sermo'
from the first verse of the 9th divis
ion Of Ps, and thus we closed a sue
