N. A. A. c. P. SENDS STRONG
PROTEST ON CABINESS MURDER
Governor of Texas Asked to Investigate CHASTITY
Killing of Negro Family-Mother and Five
Sons Shot to oDeath---Democracy
Where Art Thou?
National Association for the

"HE National Association for the
Advancement of Colored Peo-
= pie, through its secretary, John
r. Shillady, makes public telegram
sent yesterday to Governor w. P. Hob
by of Texas, protesting against the
lynching of Mrs. Sarah Cabines and
her five sons at Huntsville, Texas, and
the fatal wounding of her daughter, on
June /, as the result of an alteration
between a white man and George Ca
biness. Mr.. Shillady calls the atten-
tion of the governor to the fact that
sixteen Negroes have been lynched in
the state of Texas alone since America
entered the war, and pointedly asks
the governor concerning his action in
bringing to justice the murderers of
the six Negroes At a time when 157,-
900 Negroes are offering their lives
for the preservation of the ideals of
democracy, the association wishes to
know if the Negroes of Texas are to
be given their share of the democracy
for which they are fighting. The tel
egram follows:
June g. 1918.
Hon. w. P. Hobby, Governor,
Austin, Texas.
Press dispatches in New York pa
pers June 1st state that Mrs. Sarah
Cabiness, a colored woman, and her
five sons were shot to death by mob
at Huntsville, Texas, on June 1st, and
her daughter fatally wounded because
of alteration between a white man
and George Cabiness. In the name OF
its one hundred twenty-five branches
with over thirty thousand members of
both races as well as all other justice
loving people of our country, the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People protests in
strongest terms against this outrage
and urges you to use every power at
your command to bring the perpetra-
tors to justice. Two hundred forty
mob violence since the United States
entered the war. Sixteen of this num-
ber have been lynched in the state of
Texas alone. At time when one hun
dred fifty-seven thousand Negroes are
in France or preparing to go, offering
their lives for the preservation of our
country, it behooves Texas to do every
thing through it's officials to stamp out
mob violence. The laws of Texas are
adequate to punish all offenders
against them Lynching is cancerous
growth upon the body polite and un-
less checked will spread as it has done
during the orgy of bloodshed in your
state and in Georgia during the past
two weeks. Is Texas going to uphold
her laws in this present crisis?

question: "Does it pay to educate col
ored people?"
For the past fifty years Hampton In
stitute has been offering to selected
colored youth an opportunity to pre-
pare themselves for wise community
service and effective leadership in
school-teaching, agriculture, mechanic
arts, and home-making. Today Hamp-
tons army of 10000 leaders is definite
ly helping to remake and improve COM
munity life in widely scattered dis
tricts.
Education for Life"-written by DR..
Francis G. Peabody of Harvard, de-
voted trustee of Hampton since 1890,
and published by Doubleday. Page and
Company-is the story of Hampton's
fifty years of marvellous growth in en-
rollment, equipment, financial re-
sources, and influence for good in ed
ucation and citizen-making.
With Christian frankness and his
torical accuracy and in his character
istic charming literary style, DR.. Pea
body has presented picture of Hamp-
tons phenomenal development. The
twelve chapter headings suggest the
content of his 325 pages of interesting
biography and appreciation:
The Negro in the Civil War; Negro
After the Civil War; Coming of Arm
strong; Beginnings of Hampton
Years of Promise; Coming of the In
dians; Years of Fulfilment; End of an
Era; Coming of Frissell; Expansion of
Hampton; Hampton and the South;
and Hampton and the Future.
Education for Life"-a title sug-
gested by the basic principle on which
Hampton has been built-shows clear
ly what has been accomplished. under
the inspiration of Samuel Chapman
Armstrong and Hollis Burke Frissell.
in bringing together for effective CO.
operation a large number of thought
full, spiritually-minded, busy people to
work at and through Hampton for the
promotion of racial goodwill and rae
ial adjustment on the basis of social
justice.
Hampton's work has been that of
laying deep foundations on which two
powerful groups in the South could
build stable superstructure of eco
nomic prosperity and improved COM
munity life. Today a similar work
for the Nation must be done.
Hamptons educational influence has
gone, however, to the ends of the
earth. DR.. Peabody, without any at
tempt to praise Hampton unduly, has
made, by his masterful presentation of
facts, strong case for the wisdom of
giving Hampton and other educational
agencies strong financial and moral
support. He has stated so clearly
Hampton's educational principles that
many thinking men and women must
turn to Education for Life" to receive
an answer to the recurring question of
the hour: What ought we to do to
make democracy safe for those home
folks who fight bravely and cheerfully
to make the whole world safe for
democracy?

PRESS APPRECIATED.

The editorial comments of the Rocky
Mountain News and the Times, the
publishing of telegraphic news by the
Post. the matter-of-fact expression Oh
the Express-daily papers of this city,
besides other papers of the state, also
the New York Times and others

completeness. There is no guess then,
when with emphasis the assertion
comes, more Negro troops will ex-
pedite the finish of the Kaiser.
GERMANY AFRAID OF DARK
RACES.
Expression of fear, which took the
phase of annoyance at the initial stage
of the war, when through their alli-
ance with the British, Japan seized
German arsenals and ships in China
also possessions in the Pacific, is plain
ly seen and known from Germanys
disapproval of dark races entering the
war against her, giving Britain and
France a scathing denunciation which
she would carry into effect in some
form or other if she would be victor
ious; but she realizes prejudice will
not work at this time as THE COLOR

GOVERNOR WHITMAN, OUR
sTAUNcH FRIEND, BAREs
FACTS.
In dedicating the new Brooklyn
Young Mems Christian Association
building last week, Governor Whitman
of New York, an exponent of the
DEMOCRACY which always exhibits
its practical side under all circum-
stances for the betterment of human
ity irrespective of color or class, paid
a glowing tribute to our Negro soldiers
when he declared THAT A NEGRO
REGIMENT CARRIED THE FIRST
AMERICAN FLAG TO THE FIRING
LINE, AND ANOTHER NEGRO REG
IMENT TOOK THE FIRST NEW
YORK STATE FLAG TO THE AMER
ICAN FRONT. How glorious! How
our hearts beat with pride over anoth-
er proof of the American pluck, cour-
age and fighting ability of our boys!
No wonder the charge to them by this
same state executive few months
ago, when he presented them with
flag-the gift of the Union League:
"Three times have you taken this nag
on this spot, and three times has 1t re-
turned, shattered and torn, but not
dishonored. Take it again, and may
your great actions, your realization OF
your American citizenship and the re-
sponsibility on you, guide to the VIC
tory that will merit recognition the
world over, and MAY GOD BLESS
YOU"
