"What is the Negro seeking? His
rights as true and loyal American
citizen; fair distribution of the pub
Lie school funds: mans chance be-
fore the civil and criminal courts; to
vote as Citizen of this great republic
and an opportunity for public inn
provement in general. The Negro is
not pleading to be mayor or governor
Of any city or state in the South, yet
every qualified Negro should be al
lowed to vote for the mayor or the
governor, and the qualification for
the white man To vote should be the
same for the Negro This plea of the
Negro Is not radical, but conserva-
tive, and a right, and under God 1t
should be made until it is heard and
granted.
las for mob violence in our coun-
try, it can be stopped by every one OF
US obeying the law, white and black.
Especially should the white man, who
makes the law, obey it. The Negro
as a rule believes in law and order,
but the masses have decided individ-
ually to protect themselves against
mobs as far as possible. This de-
cision was not made solely by the
Negroes from the result of the teach
ing Of any leaders, but it is in keep
ing with the spirit Of the new era. It
is the outgrowth of the war-self-
protection. This fact is verified by the
accounts of the recent, race disturb
ances in our country. San Francisco

This is an age OF monopolies, trusts,

it behooves him to be armed with
weapons that will best insure his sue

Concerted action and collective bar
gaining have proven to be the most
effective weapons of this commercial
age. In fact, no class or race of peo-
pie can scarcely hope for success un-
less it is thus armed. The Negro
race can not hope to be any exception

The supreme court Of North Caro-
lima has upheld the state warehouse
law passed at the last session Of the
legislature, including the provision
levying a tax Of 25 cents for each bale
ginned. The court finds that this tax
is to be used to benefit all cotton grow
ers whether they intend to warehouse
their cotton or not. When the same
question was up in South Carolina, II
will be remembered that the tax pro-
vision was knocked out. and the estab-
lishment Of the South Carolina ware
house system had to be financed
through the private resources OF the
farmers on a basis of their confidence
in the ability Of Hon. John l. McLau-
rim to make the thing go. Also, 1t Is
remembered, that Mr.. McLaurin had
to pay office and administrative ex-
penses out Of his own pocket until
revenues became available from the
system he had established.

HAWKER AND eRIEVE ALIVE.
Daring Aviators Picked up at Sea and
Now are on Way to London.

Harry G. Hawker, and his navigator,
Lieutenant Commander Mckenzie
Grieve, have turned up sound and well
after having been given up for dead
for six days.
/ The news came by way Of London
Sunday, and there Is no possible mis-
take about its correctness
The two men were picked up by the
little Danish steamer Mary, bound
from New Orleans and Norfolk to Aar-
huus, Denmark, on last Monday, May
10, at point LOO miles out from New
Foundland. and 500 miles from the
Irish coast.
The aviators had to go down into the
sea because Of engine trouble. The
feed pipe from the radiator to the wa
ter pump became clogged with refuse,
the water boiled out, and the engine
became so hot that it could not work.
There was nothing for the aviators
to do but go down into the sea, and
the little steamer Mary, which saw
them at distance, arrived within
about 80 minutes, during which time
they had been keeping afloat with
great difficulty.
The Mary took the men on and on
rounding the Butte of Lewes, the most
northerly point Of the Hebrides. on
Sunday, WigWagged the news. Inc SlS
mailman at the Butte ascertained that 1t
was Hawker and Grieve and immed1-
ately wirelessed the British admiralty,
which sent the destroyer Revenge to
overtake the Mary, and on Sunday aft
ernoon the Revenge wirelessed that 1t
had the men on board and would reach
London this Tuesday afternoon.
The people of the whole world, and
especially Of England, have been thrill
ed by the glad tidings Of the rescue
Of the two airmen.
Mrs. Hawker said that she had been
feeling all along that she would see
her husband again; but nevertheless
she was overjoyed at the news as
though one had returned from the
dead. She Immediately posted at her
home this notice: my husband has
been found. He is now on the boat
Mary, bound for Denmark"
The Mary's signal to the Butte OF
Lewes was like this:
Saved hands Of Sopwith airplane.'
"Is it Hawker?" was asked.
YES" was wigwagged back.
On their return to London this att
ernoon Hawker and Grieve will be ac-
claimed as men returned to life.
