ANTI-NEGRO RIOTS

AS long as the white citizens OF this
country permit their prejudices against the
.cOored citizens to assume state OF lntoler-
ance, which grows and grows until 1t be-
comes acute, there will be outbreaks be-
tween the two classes-race riots, IT you
please-of the kind that occurred in Wash
ington. d. c., one day this week. From
time to time. and more especially in the
South and the near South, the white folks
have shown their displeasure at the black
folks trying to "act like white folks" and
never lose an opportunity to try to put the
breaks on the actions Of the colored folks
wherever and whenever it is possible for
them to do so. In the most Of the large
cities they coonized them and then charged
that the acts and depredations Of the
criminal ones were the sentiments Of the
entire colony, and when they set out to
punish the criminals they operated against
the whole on the theory. All coons look
alike to me- In every community the
crimes of the colored folks are magni-
fled, while their good behavior, if any
they have, is minimized. The metro
politan daily papers completely overlook
the good citizenry of the colored people
of their respective communities, but hold
up for public inspection and condemna-
ton any crime that may be committed
by any one of them Most any day may
be seen accounts Of the police raiding
places of vice. wherein so and so many
men are arrested, and one, two or as many
Negroes as happened to be caught are like
wise arrested In other words, the Negro
is the only distinct criminal that is desig-
mated, he not even being classed a man.
If the colored citizens make an effort to
prove to the white citizens that it is a
mistake to judge all of them by the criminal
acts of one or more, no consideration is
given to whatever they say to the contrary.
It is generally considered below the dignity
of a "whte man" to attend meetings con-
Quoted by the "niggers," and that, too,
whether such meetings be for the cause of
patriotism or for their own class uplift.
But last Tuesday evening coored man of
national renown lectured in the auditorium
of the Y. M. G. A. Of this city, preaching a
better understanding between the whites
and blacks Of this country and yet not to
exceed half dozen white folks were pres
ent and not one daily paper condescended
to reportorially cover the meeting that their
great army Of white patrons might read for
themselves the efforts the colored man is
putting forth to smooth out the differences
between himself and the white man. Race
riots even more violent than any that has
as yet been reported in this country will
disgrace this Gland Of the free" unless both
white and colored citizens try to see the
good instead Of the bad in each other. AS
long as the white citizens teach their chill

apparent that all the Negroes of Washing
ton did not commit the Offense, and the
idea that, because man is of the same
epiderma tint as the offender he should be
mobbed and bludgeoned, will not appeal to
those Europeans the least equipped to
reason. To the dullest it will be obvious
that race antipathy is discerned at the
bottom of not few Of the present and past
super-riots in European wars the emptiness
OF most of our perpetual peace plattudes
will be their most impressive feature
Making allowance for the Russian and
Polish ignorance of local affairs and for the
scrappy disconnected details of these race
rots that will reach Russian and Pole, what
will be their disposition when they receive
our protests against the pogroms? Can they
take the resolutions which we passed with
so much solemnity seriously? Common
sense tells us that they will think the same
thoughts as we would if the situations were
reversed.
"Those who display so much enthusiasm
for the legal forms of constitutions and
covenants might well consider the facts of
human nature as evidenced in these Wash
ington riots. There is plenty of law to deal
with the offending Negroes; plenty of law
to protect the innocent Negroes All the
forms and all the officials are ready at hand.
Still unmistakably the condition in Wash
ington is one of anarchy, white against
black. What do '|men everywhere" say to
this? Are there any yearnings audible?
Soldiers and sailors who fought to make the
world safe for democracy are conspicuous
in the mobs, no doubt energetically beating
up black soldiers and sailors who also
fought to make the world safe for the same
democracy

Despite the fact this old world in it's
present form and fashion has only been in
existence not to exceed ten thousand years,
if that, yet scientists tell us that in some
form or fashion it has been wagging along
for millions Of years, it having from time
to time undergone physical changes owing
to commissions from within and corrosive in
fuences from without. During all those
years Of it's existence. in one form or an
other, it has been fully peopled, who have
lived and died just as they do of this day
and age Our religion teaches u.s. man
being an infinite being, does not die but
lives always in soul, though the body, which
is the home of the real man from the cradle
to the grave, sickens and dies, when the
soul, directed by an Omnipotent hand goes
to final home somewhere in space. If
that soul, during the life of the body, lives
it goes to a home Of everlasting happiness,
and if not, it goes to a home not quite so
inviting, but to whichever it goes the ques-
tiOn is, If souls have been going to one or
both of those imaginary homes as regularly
as they are now doing, for all Of those mil
lions of years are not those homes pretty
well jammed by this time?
While thinking on this subject an idea
came to our mind. May, perhaps, the souls
