TRAINING CAMP CADETS MAKE
LONG MARCHES.

On last Friday the Negro cadets at
Fl. Des Moines made their first long
practice march, which brought them
to South park, just across the Coon
river, distance of five miles from the
camp, where a short rest was taken,
and then the return march taken up.
The entire ten miles were covered
in two hours and half, including the
| half hour taken for rest, which made
an average marching time Of about
five miles an hour, and all returned
without feeling any the worse for the
trip.
On Saturday morning another
march was made out to the govern
ment rifle range, distance Of three
and half miles, not only for the pur-
pose of training in marching but also
to give the cadets little experience
in clearing away ground.
Axes, scythes and all sorts of tools
we're on the ground and within a few
hours the rife range was placed in
first class condition. This outing also
gave the men their first opportunity tt
use their mess kit, as dinner was
served on the range, each man using
is field mess kit, consisting Of alumni
mum plate, vegetable dish, knife, fork
and spoon, and they enjoyed it i'm
mensely. 1t was an extremely hot day
and several of the men were prostrat-
ed by the exertion, but all have fully
recovered and feel none the worse for
it now.
On Tuesday evening at $50 the first
formal regimental review was held
and in the presence of thousands OF
visitors of both races, including
large delegation from the Des Moines
Chamber of Commerce, Col. Ballou
lrew up the entire regiment into sim
gle line facing the main entrance and
put them through the manual of arms
and then had them pass in review be-
fore him, both of which ceremonies
we're performed in a manner which
would have done credit to regiment
who had been in training much longer
than the month that this regiment
has.

THE REMEDY FOR CRIME.
Fair Attitude Of q Northern PubIiea-
ton Toward Our Race,

Fair Attitude Of q Northern PubIiea.
ton Toward Our Race.
Under the caption Education and
Crime Among Negroes" the American
Review Of Reviews In a recent issue
gave this remarkably fair and logical
comment ON the subject:
Certain mistaken deductions from
statistics of crime and education In the
south are discussed by Judge Gilbes>
T. Stephenson of Winston Salem, N. G
in the South Atlantic Quarterly.
In the first place, it appears that the
amount Of crime for which the Negro
race is responsible has been consider
ably exaggerated. For example, If one
counts the inmates Of the pcisons of
this country on any given day he finds
that the Negro race, constituting only
one-tenth Of the total population, is
penalized for nearly one-third Of the
crime, but If he counts the number OF
commitments for crime during any
given period he finds that the Negro
race furnishes only about one-6fth in
stead Of one-third Of the convictions.
This difference arises from the fact
that the terms Of imprisonment Of Ne
groes are, as a rule, longer than those
of white people.
"All the availa BILE statistics and the
unanimous opinion Of men in position
to know the facts would seem to Be
proof that MISUNDERSTANDING or
advanced, industrial or literary-dimin-
ishes crime among Negroes. The
alarmingly high rate Of Negro crimi-
nality is as much a condemnation Of
the community in which it exists as of
the offending Negroes themselves.
Having discovered that the Negro
school is at least one institution which
successfully combats crime, the CON-
munity cannot afford to withhold its
active interest in and generous sup
port Of its Negro school. The more
money spent in making such schools
responsive to the special needs of the
race the less will have to be spent on
crime.
"And If it comes to question OF
cost it is cheaper in the long run to
maintain and equip schools-Negro
schools even-than police departments,
courts, jails, penitentiaries and re.
formatories, for the school properly
conducted makes the Negro a greater
asset, while the court finds him a liza.
bility and nearly always leaves him a
greater liability Of the community"

B. J. Davis of Atlanta, well known
in Negro fraternal circles, delivered
the principal address and urged the
white people to give his race better
treatment and referred to lynching
and insufficient school facilities as
some of the causes Of Negro migra-

Some Negroes" said Davis, "think
that God is better to the white man
than he is to the colored man. That
is not true. The white man works
harder than we do. God gives him
health and strength just like he gives
US, but the white man works and
