While there are af ew patches Of

best we have had for an umber of
years.
Owing to the rain Sunday the atten-
dance at the Sunday morning services

but the night service was well attend

HOOSTON'S TRAGEDY

The mutiny and riot Of the negro
soldiers Of the twenty-fourth infantry
wholesale murder, utterly unprovoked
win no doubt reach the consciousness
Of the war department, which the ap-
peals and advice of representative
southern men have hitherto been I'M
able to impress.
The negro military units must not
be quartered in southern communities,
Those that have been ordered to
southern points must be sent else
where, otherwise appalling conse-
quences are inevitable.
Those that are already here must be
sent away, a repetition of Thursday
nights tragedy is to be averted.
The southern cities are not going to
change their laws to suit the demands
Of negro soldiers, nor are they going
to submit to insolence, mutiny, riot and
murder.
The war department must under
stand that and understand it quickly.
Secretary Baker must quickly under
stand that Houston or Columbia is not
o., where social equality is
somewhat of a fixed element of racial
where negro teachers teach
white children and all that sort of
thing. And that kind of condition is
not going to be set up in the South,
either in peace or war.
The negro soldiers resent our sep
arate coach laws, our customs which
prohibit mixed schools, mixed service
at places of public entertainment, but
that measure of separation is abso-
lutte and will be maintained.
If they cannot recognize these condi-
tions peaceably, it is necessary for
them to go, not only for their own
good, but for the good of much larger
numbers of civilian negroes whose well
being depends upon cordial relations
with the white people.
Houston is not going to endure an
other such shock as that Of Thursday
night, is not going to have her orderly
and peaceful life disturbed by armed
murderers Unfortunately shooting
up the town, is not going to have men,
