Is THIS RETRIBUTION?

The first lynching by burning a
human being at the stake took place
in Paris, Texas, many years ago, when
Henry Smith an innocent colored man,
CHARGED with assault on a white
woman, was saturated with kerosene
oil and burned to death in the public
square. 1t was a gala event. Thou
sands of people, including "many of
the leading citizens" came from miles
around to witness the human holo-
caust. The woman who made the
charge lighted the fire and as the
flames cracked about their victim the
elite of Texas danced like demons
about the pyre.
The woman afterwards confessed
that the colored man visited her not
only with her consent but at, her
solicitation. Remorse over her
fiendish act so preyed upon her mind
that short time after she died a
raving maniac.
That was twenty years ago.
Now the fire fiend has again visited
the Texas city and Paris is in ashes,
This time millions of dollars worth of
property of many Of the Heading
citizens" who took part in that man
burning has gone up in smoke.
Is this retribution?

"Nine-tenths of our social strife
come from trying to know people by
labels or numbers. We require a
great deal more temperance and virtue
from the tramp who comes to the back
door and asks for cold victuals than
We do from the society youth who
comes into the drawing-room and asks
for our daughters hand.
Think Of the simple Russian, Ger
man and French peasants across the
sea tonight, numbering each other. II
you went through the ranks most Of
them wouldn't know what it is all
about. They are doing it just because
some one in authority has labeled the
other fellow-'enemy.'
"The secret of nearly all our hatred
and Indifference toward our neigh
bors is because we don't know them.
We are all slaves to names and
titles; we hate to face realities. We
are getting morally color blind to the
finer shades of right and wrong. Often
we are afraid to be alone with our
real selves for fear we should get
acquainted with them"

MIXING THE RACES.

The South, that is the white South Is
not opposed to racial admixture, but
being at heart thoroughly immoral it
insists that the mixing be done in an
illegal manner.
The mixing which has already been
accomplished was started by the white
South. 1t began in the days of slav.
cry, when the white master forced the
black slave women to bear children,
who followed the condition of their
mothers and became slaves. A few
masters manumitted their half breed
children, but they were the excep.
tons to the general rule. Many mas,
own offspring for sale and in time the
tiers made practice of breeding their
raising of children for the slave mar
kets became recognized Southern
industry.
Since the abolition of slavery, the
white South, claiming Christ as it's
guiding star, has enacted laws making
Christian marriage a felony, thus d.
rectly aiding immortality. The white
South has in every way endeavored
to humiliate and degrade it's colored
people the majority of whom have
more or less Caucasian blood.
Search history through; read the
atrocities of the barbarian invasians
of the early days, read the barbar.
tiles OF the Middle Ages; read of the
1nquisition; read the story of the
French Revolution; read of Russia's
persecution of the Jews: read of CIV
ilized CD Europe's rape of Africa;
read the horrors of the Christians
war now devastating Europe. Add all
of these together and they will not
equal in blackness what Southern
white people have meted out to their
own sons and daughters to their own
brothers and sisters, who are of a
slightly darker hue.
1t is the blacklist page in the annals
of the world.

r1ght, the smallest personal right, to
speak or think his race prejudices in
pubic. That is un-American and
registers him as not an American. It
is difficult thing to do at best, this
Kidding ones self of prejudice, particu-
lariy OF race prejudice. There appears
to be no corollary of tolerance to the
American proposition of liberty. But,
never was there a moment in our his
tory when the call to this difficult
achievement was so loud, or the op-
portunity so large.
And, at this moment when every
man feels prejudices and every man
KNOWS 1t is laid upon him to act so
far as possible free from prejudices.
there is very large opportunity to
consider and Danish a certain race
prejudice. We have had the race with
US almost from the beginning and will
nave 1t to the end. Much Injustice has
been wrought and will be wrought if
we 40 not confirm or grant of not
only liberation but friendliness to this
race.

cent OF the University will speak on
The Psychology of Prejudice.' It is
an illumination of which we are all
in need. Too often our prejudice
is matter of instinct, without any
psychology, any mental side to it. To
discover where we err, and where we
fail to manifest any intelligence
should go far to cure us of our
medieval ill. And at this moment
there is nothing which we, as Ameri
cans, an amalgam of all races, are SO
much in need of as an UNDERSTANDING
OF prejudice, leading to it's elimina
ton: or at least it's subordination in
public AFFAIRS
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1916-04-01
THE REASON WHY.

A distinguished foreigner who is
touring the United States had this to
say relative to his impressions of the
race question in this country:
Il have always been interested in
what is called the race question in
the United States and since my arrival
have endeavored to study it from
every viewpoint and if possible find
some reasons for it's existence.
After had met so large a number
OF intelligent, we'll educated, refined
and cultured colored people 1 was at
a loss to understand the reasons for
the bitter race prejudice and the at
tempts in various parts of the country
to segregate people of color.
The problem was largely solved
when I attended at Evanston, Illinois
recently conference of the various
branches of Methodism and in which
the colored branches had representa-
ton.
THAT a body so-called Christians
should find it necessary to even dis.
cuss the question of segregating any
class OF people was so contrary to
the spirit of Christianity that I was
greatly surprised; but after South
ern delegate had in vigorous speech
opposed segregation, 1 was dumb
rounded to see a bishop Of a colored
Methodist church arise and make a
speech favoring the separation of his
branch from the proposed union of
Methodism. He referred to his mem
bers as white folks Negroes" and
said they wished to be set apart,
1t was disgusting revelation.
~The whole thing is now clear. Some
ignorant, short sighted self-seeking
leaders are seeking segregation in the
church for some personal reasons.
Evidently they are not versed in his
tory or they would know that they
are playing with fire. If they are
segregated in the House of the Lord.
segregation civilly and socially fol-
lows as a natural sequence. Old col
ored men who were reared in slavery
are apt to have slavish ideas and
the only hope of the colored people
is that the young men, the clear
headed thinking young men, will take
charge of the situation and push to
the rear the trucking leaders who
are willing to sell their birthright
for a mess of pottage."
