A RACE RIOT
fortunes.

AS rule race riots are participated
In by the worst elements Of the two
RACES involved. The worst cl,inent
|of the white race figures in a riot
which Is reported In a South Carolina
village near tho Georgia line
The correspondent at Fair Play
says:
Trouble between the races has
been brewing for days. and came to
head when a white man, said to be
Woodrow Campbell. and George Glib
son. young negro, quarreled over
Gibson's attentions to mullato wo-
man. Negroes sided with Gibson, and
last night the friends of Campbell
formed a mob and took Tom Springht,
q negro. across the Savannah River
into Georgia and gave him a terrible
beating.
Gibson and his father. Green Glib
son. arrived on the bridge in bug
gy and demanded that the bridge be
cleared OF the mob SD that they might
pass. Walking to the buggy. one OF
the men said to young Gibson:
You are the one we want
"Glbson was pulled from the buggy.
He resisted and escaped. The escape
only infuriated tho mob more. He was
chased and after time caught. Then
he was beaten to DEATH"
There follows a melodramatic ac-
count OF the brewing and breaking OF
a general battle between whites and
negroes, in which there occurs q pa
thetic incident. the killing Of the aged
father OF Gibson, who was shot in the
back and beaten to death with his
own gun after he had made q stand
behind bridge.
Everyone In the South who Is IA
miliar with the moro sordir aspects
OF life knows what type Of white man
is negro's rival for the affections OF
la mulatto woman. It will surprise
many persons to find that in any
American community, however be-
nighted or debased, such white man
could beat up a following and cause a
race riot Tho village OF Fairplay-
surely the irony OF fate gave it the
name-bot3 into prominece after a
lifetime OF obscurity only to attract
ture, however, debased and outcast,
finds mon OF his race who will side
with him because he Is white, or be-
cause they want IN excuse for brawl
with negroes.
UPiift societies have probed and
treated such social ulcers as thoBe
found In the more squalid sections Of
New York's East Side. The South
Carolina village of Fairplay ia remote.
and 1t as yet unprobed and unre-
deemed. There arc doubtless more
pleasing aspects of Fairplay than thar
which Is brought to attention by the
race riot. but they have not been ad-
vortised.-Courier Journal.

Dear Mr. Editor: @t.
In reading the morning paper I no.
tice that In 'speaking of the meeting
of the governors Of the Anderson Re-
lief Association last night you say
no names were mentioned of those
who have been aiding In this most
commendable work, and it occurred to
me that the mime OF the Anderson
Daily Intelligencer should have been
mentioned, forceably and With express
sions OF gratitude and appreciation
for such an aid. This Is tho opinion of
all who Pre- interested In this noble
work. The Intelligencer was the first
to come forward and offer Its office as
a repohitory to receive contributions
and hes been acting as bureau OF
relief. Not only. In t:.:s Wy. but CIV
ing ita columns to make known any
need that has come to It's notice and
urging q response from the generous
public such as the Anderson public
he's always been in time of trouble o.
any kind. I am sure 1t was not All In
territorial slight on the part OF the
governors but only an oversight that
they will be the first, gladly. to cor
rect In the mantine, allow me to say
all honor and praise is due the Ander-
son lntelligencer in this great and
good work, from one who reads anu

RURAL SOCIAL CENTERS

Speaking OF girls canning clubs and

great value these organizations are
as means OF adding Zcg; to the
social life of the rural communities
OF the State. Clarence Poe. the editor
Of The Progressive Farmer, recently
delivered an able address on "The Ru-
raj Problem and the Rural Commun-
ity." In which he sets forth the great
need of he rural community for So
cial ccnters and social life. He says
that the advent Of the rural mail de-
livery has largely oblternted the

the whereabouts Of that home. The old
postofficc did give one a home. 30 to

tho social center must be the school,

There ely the meetings or the commun-

ter shouu radiate all tn, factors for
building up each community, and CO.

should hold their meetings.: the COM
munity fair should be there. and IL
should be the home of the girls can
ming clubs. the boys pig clubs, and
the boys corn clubs. The athletic
sports, the debating or literary soci-
eties should hold meetings there.
So the people OF Anderson county
should welcome Miss Darlington with
open arms and assist her in every way
possible in organizing this most help
ful and. interesting work, the girls
canning clubs. We should also provide
for and welcome the farm worker who
will organize the boys pig clubs. An
derson county cannot afford to make
better farmers Of her girls than Of
her boys.

rover.
