At this writing martial law has
been declared and thousands Of troops
are patroling the streets.
Think of this condition in free
Americal
The latent cause of these distur-
Dances seems to be the animosity IN
white soldiers, sailors and marines
against Negroes on account of treat
ment accorded colored soldiers by the
French people. They made their
boast. "When we get back to America
we will teach you niggersl how to stay
in your place" Colored troops
brought this declaration back with
them, and this together with the
shameful conduct of American white
officers to colored soldiers, account
for the bitterness that has come ove1
both races. Education and fair pub
| lie press are the only things that will
ameliorate this cneslity. White anc
colored pastors should instruct theil
congregations against the folly of moi
rule, and all unite to maintain peace
and order. hTere must be some toll
GRAFTON from both sides if the races
are to live here in peace.

AMERICA IN THE
GRIP OF MOB RULE


For several weeks white hoodlums
have been attacking defenseless col
ored citizens in Norfolk, Va, Wash
ington, p C.. Chicago, ILL.,, and Day
ton, Ohio. The persistent and organ
ized efforts Of the red necks" to ter
rorize Negroes wherever found. have
exhausted their patience and in every
place except Dayton colored people
have fought back with equal frenzy
The white press has been instrumental
in spreading the propaganda Of kill
a niger and in Washington legal
action will be taken against a leading
daily for excitement to riot. The
white press IS also very unfair in
enlarging and exaggerating the
crimes of Negroes. This prejudicial
attitude Of the daily press has poi
soned the minds Of thoughtless white
people against the colored citizens.

The following Is q brief account OF
he racial trouble in the four cities
mentioned.
Dayton
Sunday, July 20, gang Of pool
room toughs ran all the colored peo-
pie out OF Lakeside Park, q public
resort adjacent to the National Mill
tary Home. There were about thirty
colored persons in the park, including
men, women, and children, and all
alike were molested, insulted, and
beaten. without receiving any pro
lection from the park police force;
indeed, it is said the policemen them
selves participated in the maltreat-
ment. Four white men were arrested,
but released on their own recogflz-
ance. The city police department
claims that the park was out of its
jurisdiction, whilst the county sheriff
and his deputies have shown an ap-
palling disinterest.
Norfolk
The outbreak at Norfolk occurred
while the colored citizens were cele-
brating the return Of colored soldiers
The coluored people were attacked
without provocation by soldiers ano
sailors. The Negroes repelled the as
sault by fighting back. No arrests
1 have been made.
Washington
At Washington the trouble started
when United States sailors and ma
rines began to abuse colored citizen:
unfortunately on account OF th'
alleged attacks on white women D.
/ black men. These crimes originated
lin the perverted minds Of white re
porters.
The peace officers at the nationa
capitol took sides with the white ruf
fans and united to beat up colore
men and women Finally coiore
lpeople became enraged and retaliate
with such fury brigade under ma
jor general was called to stop tn
| fighting. When the hoodlums foun
the colored people prepared the
raised the cry of Negro domination.
President Wilson and Seeretar
Baker held conference over the dis
turbance.
Chicago
The most serious Of the racis
clashes was at Chicago, where accord
ing to the last report 30 are dead an
several hundred wounded. Here tn
disorder began when policeman rt
! fused to arrest white youth who dt
liberately murdered eolored bo
who drifted on RIFT among whit
bathers. The riot extended for fly
miles through the colored section an
downtown districts. Seventeen NJ
groes and thirteen whites were killet

offered no protection to the colore
people and they had to fight back lax

colored residences were burned.
!, Provident hospital was stoned b
the white culprits and some cf the pc
tients injured. A band of sailor
charged the United States postoffic

men in the mail service. The me
