ried a vitriolic attack on American
Democracy as practiced on Ameri-
cans OF African descent. 1t drew the
fire of a certain small calibre Okla
homan in the form of letter which
we reprint together with the reply OF
the editor of Pearson's:
Wagner. Oklahoma.
Editor Pearson's:
l wrote you a letter asking that
you say something about that infer
nal question. that nasty problem
known as the niger question. You
ignored my letter. but 1 see that you
have quite piece in the May number
about Southern lynchings of the black
murderers and rapists.
The fact that you don't know any
thing about the question. and that
you have never been South, and have
no intention of visiting that section,
that you might secure tirst-handed in
formation. makes no difference.
Nearly all American editors write
about things they know nothing of,
for the average editor isn't interested
in the truth, but is. like every one
else in this land of dollars. interested
in circulation, in dividends. But
even if you don't know anything of
the subject and have the English
mems prejudice in favor of niggers
as opposed to at least Southern white
people, hope you may write many
articles of bitterness illustrated by
the brush of some South hater, be-
cause that is sure way to stimulate
interest in the question by the real
thinkers and patriots both North and
South. and that's the surest way to
hasten the final solution, the only So
luton. j. g., the migration of the
Negro.
