EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR

Recognizing further that the south is
no exception to the nations OF the
world. in that its courts OF Justice are
often more favorable to the rich than
to the poor. and further recognizing
the fact that the Juxtaposition Of
more privileged race and less privi-
legged race complicates this situation.
we plead for courts Of justice instead
Of mere courts Of law. We plead fur
ther for n deeper sense Of obligation
on the part of the more privileged class
to see to 1t that justice is done to every
man and woman, white and black
alike.
We recognize in the next place that
lynch law Is no cure for the evil Of
crime, but is rather an aggravntfon.
and is itself the quintessence OF all
crime, since 1t weakens law and il un-

er things seing equal, we recognize
that crime is worse which is commit

an individual Of another tace and that
the form of retaliation is most harm
full which is visited by one race upon
another.
We further believe that there must
be a prompt and Just administration
of the law in the detection and punish

added those influences Of knowledge
and Of good will between the races
which will more and more prevent the
commission of crime.
Lastly, we recognize that the eco

coLoRED COLONY A SUCCESS.
MEN WANTED IN BEET FIELDS

William D. Moore, agent or Chainey
& Young, came down from Deerfield
to secure ten men and boys to work
in the beet fields. They have a con-
tract for 200 acres at 500 per acre,
which amounts to $4,000. Negro labor
is in great demand and the beet
growers are well pleased with the
negroes work. This shows what a
possibility there lies in Deerfield for
Negro opportunity. Easily 100000
worth of beet work can be had by
negroes every year, and since Deer
field is and will be mainly a negro
settlement, this money will be spent
there and handled in Denver by ne
groes. There is no reason now for
an idle negro in Denver. No excuse
why more negroes might not go up
there and take sugar beet land. The
soil is begging cultivation and pro-
duction. Already opportunities are
being opened to Negroes. Go now and
get in on the ground floor.

STORY OF NEGRO
 MAY WIN HIM PAROLE

Little Rock, June 17-Monday afternoon a young negro, about twenty.one years of age, appear ed in the office of Gov, Futrell. He told the governor a story of filial duty that made a deep inn pression on the executive, that may later on result in the exten- tion of clemency in his case.
 The negro, Odie Burchette, was convicted about four years ago in Hampstead county, of grand larceny, and sentenced to two years in the penitentiary. He claims that he was innocent of the offense charged against him. After serving four months of his term, he was persuaded by another convict, who threat, ened to kill him if he did not do so, to make his escape, when he was already given partial free dom as a trustee. For three years he has been wandering about, fearing capture at any time. He has lately been at work in Waxahatchia, Tex. Since his escape his father has died, and he told the governor that his mother is left almost destitute, and he had decided that he would return and serve the rest of his sentence, then go home and support his mother for the rest of her days.
 Gov. Futrell gave him letter to the Penitentiary Commission. CTS, reciting the story told him by Burchette, and the negro walked from the capitol to the penitentiary where he delivered the letter in person. It is pro- babk that upon an investigation of the record they may recom- mend parole.

STATES WIN BIC VICTORY
DECISIONS IN FAVOR OF BIG SYS.
 ITEM ARE REVERSED.
Maximum Freight Tariff Statutes of Missouri, West Virginia, Ore son and Arkansas Unani-
 mousIy Upheld.

Washington, June 17.-Maximum rate laws of four states, Missouri, West Virginia, Oregon and Arkansas, were sustained by the supreme court in a series of unanimous decisions read by Justice Hughes. Except as to a few railroads with small mileage in Missouri alone, the court declared the laws are not confiscatory The court did not decide in the Kentucky rate case.
 All the opinions reaffirmed the states rights principles laid down in the Minnesota cases. They consti- tuted the most sweeping dominating defense of the states rights" doc Urine since the Scott slavery case. Ia brief, the court decided:
 Missouri's 2-cent and maximum freight laws valid as to all but few railroads.
 Oregon's law, creating a state com mission and reducing passenger and freight rates, valid.
 Arkansas 2-cent fare and reduced freight rate laws constitutional.
 West Virginia's 2-cent&fare law valid.
 The decrees mold with mighty force both future railroad development and the rate regulation Jurisdiction of the nation and states. They end in vic tory for the state in the desperate fight for life of the state railroad com. missions.

 But the drug trade has found
 a safer, more pleasant remedy than calomel in Dodson's Liver l Tone.
