peace based on a 'perpetuation oi
Prussianism" and criticisms of the
government and the conduct of the
war which are not constructive, -
were condemned by Secretary OF
State Lansing here at commence

Prussia having "wickedly sought
war" the secretary said, it is the
determination of the American peo-

and more war, and more war, until
the very thought of war is abhorrent

the ground of the necessity Of securing a
Whlte mans government they were bring
ing IN a backer regime by their own du-
pllcity than black ballots could have ever
delivered. They forget that the moral law
never sleeps and never frogets. This phase
OF our politics is passing.
But the most outstanding crime is lynch
ing. The tragedies seem to thick.
en- The fact is, we are simply waking up.
Our consclences are quickened. It is the
hour before sunrise
The sentiment is rising and organizing
against this hideous savagery and orgy Of
beastliness. The battle is joined, but the
fight is not over There is a respectable
number Of people who do not belong to the
underworld, and who, if they do not openly
advocate lynch law, excuse it. They will
not bring an offender to justice. They are
not moved with moral passion and indigna-
ton against it. If they do not start the
mob, they follow it, and enjoy as high sport
this American diversion. Such men are not
peculiar to the South, though the South has
suffered most from their atrocities Nor is
the Negro the only victim, though he has
been the chief sufferer
In condemnlng mob violence the criminal
IS not excused from the villany Of his crime,
whether Negro or alien. But law must be
made sacred and safe under all circum
stances Of excitement and Of emotional stress
and storm.
This is indeed frank speech from man
living in Texas. He concludes with a trib-
ute to the Negro soldier:
The Negro as a soldier in the present war
will be more than an episode in relation to
his future history. * * He is the SYM
onym Of loyalty. He is typical patriot.
He makes a good soldier He is furnishing
his quota of the American army What
effect will this war experience have on his
public and institutional relations? Already
the atmosphere is changing. I dare not guess

LABOR AND MIGRATION

The continued exodus of the NEGRO from
the South has not only improved the social
and economic condition of the migrant, it
has also awakened the South to a sense of
It's own remssness According to the Chi
cago, ILL.,, News Monroe N. Work said re-
Gently before the Southern Sociological Con-
gress:
80 great is the migration to the North
which began in 915 and continues TO the
present time, and SO far reaching and pro-
found were it's effects, that the whole fabric
OF the South's social structure was dis
turbed and shaken in way that it had not
been since the Civil War and Reconstruct
ton days The loss Of so large part of
It's labor caused the South to see the value
OF this labor IN a new light. AS a result
the South is giving labor better pay, ac-
cordng it juster treatment, better protec-
ton under the law and better educational
Facilities There is also a disposition to
endeavor to find out just how the Negro
feels and thinks about the situation and
what he would advise doing to better con-
dltlons and make him more contented and
satisfied
Negro labor itself has assumed a new at
tltude toward the South and on all sides
colored men express freely their views con-
corning the cause for their migratoin Mr..
Work quotes from a letter written by a
Negro to the Macon, Ga Telegraph:
First enforce the law equally between
all men, black and white The Wholesale
arrest OF Negroes for very slight causes
tends to create feeling in the minds of
our people that they are not getting a
square deal. In the second place, public
school accommodation for our people in the
South in many places is very poor. Hence
1t IS IN easy matter for many of the Ne
groes to be ured away when they are told
by an Immigrant agent that in the North
they will not only receive better wages, but
that they will receive better advantages for
the education Of their children. The Ne
gro has settled convictions about educating
his children. This he means to do no mat
ter what sacrifice as a parent he has to
make''

what breath will blow upon us when the war
