Negro Held for Robbery

Pine Bluff, Ark, Sept. 13.-Wli-
liam Barnes was arrested in the
northeast section of the city last
Tuesday on complaint filed by three
other Negroes, who accuse Barnes of
robbery. He was committed to Jail
under bond of $1,000.
Rowe Anderson, Will Clark and
Nellie Simmons stated to the county
attorney that Barnes offered to take
them automobile riding. They ac-
cepted his invitation and after they
had gotten out quite a distance in
the country on a lonely road, Barnes
pulled revolver on them and robbed
all three of them, the sum amounting
to $3.50. He then jumped from the
car and disappeared along the road

fathers and brothers fight and die in

the South with an occasional effort
to free some poor oppressed Negro
slave.
In spite of the impossibility of a
fair trial, even the apostle of "a
square DEAL" advises the Negro tc
assist in experimenting Negroes
charged with offenses." This advice
will always be met by a disdainfu
smile until the courts will give ever
a Negro chance to be proven guilty

that Negro has family rights if a
white man desires to invade, no judge
to condemn; and therefore no Negro
who will appeal to the law to punish

a Negro is charged with crime, he is
arrested, tried and most surely con-

partial solution of the whole prob lem of national welfare. In addition to approximately 4,50O,000 men who entered the military and naval es- tablishments proper, there are many additional millions who became a part of the great wartime industrial army engaged in the manufacture of arms, ammunition, clothing and in countless other lines of war activity Many of the plants engaged in such production have already closed down; others have materially reduced their working forces For the future we'll being of our State and Nation it is absolutely essential that those who were employed in wa industries and are now or will soon be without en- ployment, be promptly provided for.
 Most of the men who put on the uniform were promised the return of their positions, by their employers, upon their discharge from the army. Those promises should not now be forgotten, nor ought we to overlook the fact, in keeping them, that many persons who filled the positions dur ing the absence of the soldiers, will presently find themselves out of employment.
 Speaking from the standpoint of the State, I believe it is our duty and responsibility so to adjust conditions that there will be employment avail able in the State for every able-bod- jed person willing to accept it.
 "All of the responsibility for fur nishing employment should not be showed over upon the governmental agencies. It is true that the Nation, State, counties, municipalities and other political subdivisions can assist greatly in handling the problem. But it is equally true that the investor who had contemplated the erection of a business building, the individual who had desired to erect a new resi- dence, the manufacturer who intended Improvements in his factory, all of whose plans were delayed by war con- ditions, ought now quickly to. so ar range their affairs that they may proceed with these contemplated improvements and thus aid in provid- ing employment for those who desire and need it. sincerely hope our peo- pie will not overlook this individual responsibility. They should not ex- pect the entire problem to be worked out through public improvements that may be undertaken, for if this be the case the time will come when pub. lie work will cease and the labor prob. lem will remain .unsolved."

DUKE CITY GIRL
BELIEVED To BE
MURDER VICTIM
Roy E. Taylor Switchman, Is
Held in Washington After
Body Is Found in Shallow
Grave,

The Portland Oregonian, received
here yesterday, tells of the arrest at
South Bend, Wash. of Roy E. Taylor
Northern Pacific switchman, follow
ing the discovery of the body of a
young woman suspected of being that
of his wife, whom authorities could
not locate
Although the Oregonian says the
switchman asserted that his wife was
visiting her mother in Albuquerque, no
one could be found here who knew
either the girl or her mother and
Taylor was unknown to railroad men
here. His name does not appear in
city directories for several years back
The Oregonian says:
Evidence of the crime for which
he is held was not discovered until
July 3. The victim was found in
shallow grave, protected from the
covering of earth only by filmy un-
dergarment. She had been killed bv
blow from a blunt instrument or a
shotgun charge fired at close range
There was little about the body at the
time to identify it. 1t appeared to be
that of woman in her twentles. was
of medium size. rather plump, with a
heavy head of brown hair and sever
al gold teeth.
suspicion of Taylor arose over his
being seen near the spot the morning
after the night when the crime is
thought to have been committed.
When questioned Taylor first denied
ever having been married, later con-
tradlcting himself by saying that he
had wife and three children.
When asked where his wife was he
said she was with her mother in Albu-
querque, N. NJ. Authorities received
word from her parents there that they
did not know where she was, nor had
they heard from her for months
THE three children are under the
care of woman in Salem who not
long ago lived with the Taylors at
Portland, and through whose knowl-
edge the authorities became aware of
the wife's disappearance.
What may have the gravest mean
ing is Yakima dentists record of |
dental work done for Mrs. Taylor sew
eral years ago. This record, it is said |
tallles with that of the woman found |
near Olympia
