views are set forth in a letter to Ow-

REV. GEORGE w swoPE's BOOKS

Rev. Gerge W. Swope, Th. NJ, pas
tor Of the Baptist church in Able
vile, recently from Central Baptist
Church, Norfolk, Va, preached a Be-
ries of sermons since coming here on
"Kingdom Builders" which attracted
wide attention and most favorable
comment. The book treats on the
lives of the twelve apostles chosen by
Christ, including Judas Iscariot. It
gives d careful analysis of each apos-
tie including a biographical sketch
of each and answers the question,
"What distinctive work did each
apostle do in the apostolate." The
to this question explains
WHY Christ chose each for an apos-
tie. For short time the books will
be on sale at the Drug store Of Bow
den & Simpsons.

DANGEROUS EARTH ROADS.

In Iowa there is well organized
state highway commission which has,
however, only very limited authority.
AS result, it has been compelled to
issue the following advice to citizens
concerning dangerous earth roads,
instead Of remedying the trouble by
direct action. 'No community should
allow its road draggers to work the
roads to a peak in the center. If the
road drag man is getting the center
of the road too high for comfort or
safety, 80 that it is dangerous to|
drive on the sides or even on the
peak, stop the first time you meet
him and call his attention u It. Tell
the road superintendent and the
county engineer. Telephone the su-
pervisor who lives nearest you. If
the road man, the road superiRten-
dent, the county engineer or the
supervisor tries to shift the blame or
tells you that the Highway Commits
sion requires them to drag the roads
so, tell them that you happen to
know the Commission has nothing to
do with the matter at all. So long
as no one outside Of the county and
township read men have any authori-
ty to compel road draggers to stop
making roads dangerous by running
the crown up to a peak in the center
of the road, the people of the COM
munity must take the matter in
hand and insist on road draggers
flattening out the crown so that it
is SAFE"

LYNCH FOR ASSAULT
IL AND BATTERY7
(The State.)

The urdisputed facts so far given
to the public In respect Of the lynch
ing Of Anthony Crawford in Abbe-
vile are, briefly, that the negro quar-
relied with a white man, used rough
language to him and then, when at
tackled by others, struck and severely
injured a white man with a heavy
hammer. After being badly beaten
he was placed in Jail. A few hours
later he was taken from jail by a
mob and killed.
It is said that Crawford was in a
critical condition and might have
died from the wounds that he receiv-
ed before his arrest, if he had not
been hanged by the mob.
Subsequently a meeting was held
in Abbeville which resolved that
Crawford's family be ordered to leave
the county. The family owns valu-
able lands and other property in Alb
beville. ..r...... ...
If Crawford was q "bad negro" if
he had been implicated in murders,
assaults or barn burnings it has not
been reported IF he was a disturb
ing factor in his community, if he
delivered ineendiary speeches, If he
stirred his race to animosity towards
the whites, II he was in any way no
torious or criminal or had been guilty
Of any offense prior to the day that
he was killed, 1t has not been 50 re-
ported to the press Of Abbeville or
Of the State.
The only defense set up even by
implication, 50 far as the public is
informed, for the lynching Of Craw-
ford is that . negro who uses insult
ing language to a white man and then
fights back when attacked is worthy
Of death and should be forthwith
hanged without process of law;
though he Is in the custody Of the
law, In jail, and sorely wounded. =,
II the family Of the dead man are
public enemies and dangerous to the
community, it seems that the COM
munity should have sufficient faith in
the white citizens Of South Carolina
4 to put it's case before them.
There may be facts 80 far sup
pressed that might be offered in ex-
cuse or mitigation Of the killing of
this Crawford. The State and, we
think, the people Of South Carolina
are unwilling to form a final judg-
ment on the evidence that has been
related. While this would not justi-
Sfy Q lynching, for in a civilized coun-
try nothing does, it may be that other

circumstances than those reported
incensed the men who killed Craw'
ford and drove them to slaughte,
him.
If there be anything that has been
kept back, anything that would ex-
plain the affair additional to that
which the public has been told, it
should be revealed. Is the testimony
in defense of the slayers of Craw-
ford all in? Does the defense "rest?"
Are the people of the State and the
United States to form their verdict
as to the killing and the threatened
expulsion of the dead mans family
from the home, on the narrative
printed in the newspapers?
Under the conditions in which we
live and have lived in the South, in
science from a negro is peculiarly
hard to bear. Right or wrong the
fact remains that a negro can not ex-
pect to fight white man on equal
terms and, regardless of the merits
of the question, it is the simple truth
to say that a negro who strikes a
white man can not expect to be ac-
corded the same fair play that he
would receive if his skin were white.
Ie were useless here to discuss the
facts Of race difference; it is sufi-
cient to admit that they exist. At the
same time, they do not answer the
question, Shall q negro who is In
solent to white man and commits
an assault and battery on a white
man be lynched? III.
Shall death by the mob be his pun
ishment? ' .
Are the people Of Abbeville and Of
South Carolina resolved that, regard
less of the laws Of their State and;
of the United States, this shall be
their practice? ! E."ts
It is Just as well to state the issue
plainly. Is it or is it not the inten-
ton Of the people Of South Carolina
to undertake to maintain before the
people of the United States that they
can and will lynch an insolent and
fighting negro and Danish his family?
If this is to be the position of our
people the sooner they proclaim it
and defy the world, the better. If it
is not to be, the sooner they take
steps to convince the world to the
contrary the better. "
