WAR IS HE'LL"

WHAT is likely to be the great
est war in the history of the
world is now raging in Europe
Five great countries and one
small weak nation are already in
the death grapple. with other
powers getting on a war footing
as rapidly as possible. Millions
OF men, the flower of the nations
involved are likely to be ruthless
ly slain and MANNED for life be-
cause of ambitious rulers. The
treasure of Europe in men and
money is being sacrificed upon
the alter OF the god of power. g"
In this struggle there is no
great principle involved. no great
cause to serve, no wrong To a
venge; it is essentially a war for
power and supremacy. The Triple
Alliance is afraid the Triple En-
tente will become supreme in
Europe and vice versa and the
people who must bear
the brunt Of conflict will ne pay
ing the price for more than an
hundred years.
These great nations boast of
their civilization and christian
Ity, ye worse than savages they
wantonly cause the strength OF
the nations To be usely slaughter
ed. The world talks Of peace
and prepars for war. man builds
peace temples and surrounds
them with soldiers: he builds ca
nails in order that civilized man
may come closer together and
plants along its sides the most
powerful guns known In order
that our fellow men may be
struck with awe. More money
IS spent by the great nations Of
the world in keeping up great
armies than is used for the ed.
ucation Of the worlds children.
The money invested in the great
navies Of the world would feed
its hungry and clothe it's naked
and yet we call this christian
civilization. Truly war is hell
and the best are but little re
moved from the savage.

OF Nashville, Tenn, and vouched
for oy our correspondent. The
Press Association heralded it to
the country that Negroes had
lynched a white man and the
Coroner's jury rendered a ver-
dict of justi6able homocide.
The facts are that Vorner was
killed by Langford, who had been
deputised by the sheriff. in self
defense and there was no mob
OF Negroes whatever. The Negro
u essentially law abiding race
and there are only few instan-
ces where he has resorted to
mob violence to avenge alleged
wrongs, and every one knows
that he has more wrongs heaped
upon him which should be aveng
ed than any race in America.
The Negro believes in law and
order and in most cases where
be violates the law 1t is more
from ignorance than from ma
hciousness or wanton disregard
for law.
The Negro has been lynched

from his home without cause, the

gone further, he has appealed to
the honor. dignity and con science
OF the nation, when he could have
brought desolation and devasta-

are the states which treated him
worse and gave him no protec-
ton. The leaders OF the Negro
race through the press, from the
pulpit and upon the platform ad-
wise their people To be orderly /
and law abiding and in the main
this advice is being followed. |
They appeal to the better ele
