TRYING TO SAVE THE SOUTH

That efforts are not altogether lacking
on part of both races in the South, to save
that section from being completely sub
merged beneath the waves of mob violence
and lynch law is made evident from time
to time. Despite the fact that but little
substantial result has so far been mani
Tested in response to their appeals, these
devoted advocates of justice and the up
holding of the law continue their efforts to
save the civilization of the section with
undated zeal.
Conspicuous among those members of the
race who have an abiding faith in the de-
sire and ability Of the better white element
of the South to prevail in the struggle
against lynching and mob rule is Mr.
Charles Banks of Mound Bayou, Miss Time
and again he has urged the giving of
publicity to the position being taken by
the white Southerners in addresses and edi-
torials against lynching, and the inclina-
ton among men of influence and affairs to
come out openly and strongly for Justice,
square deal and larger opportunity for
the Negro in the South.
Recognizing the expediency Of the policy
urged by Mr.. Banks and the great good
that would follow all genuine effort on the
part Of the white South to remedy it's in.

From the current issue of the Portland
Advocate under the caption Of Frame Up on
Colored Man, I clipped the following article
which fully speaks for itself and needs no
comment from me further than, the same
things happen in other places, for example,
Omaha and Duluth in the North and an
hundred and one places in the South:
The reading public has not so soon for
gotten the big scare headlines which appeared
in the local daily papers a week or so ago
describing an alleged assault by "burly
negro" on 'pretty white woman" in one
of The Dalles, Dr. hotels. One paper ran
the cut of the alleged "beautiful" victim
and another paper said editorially: "Its
good for the negro who attacked the white
woman of The Dales that he was not in
or burned at the stake" The object Of
these papers was to start race riot or to
have a ''necktie" party; but the law-abiding
people of The Dalles were not swayed by
such infammatory utterances Of the news
papers and as result the colOred man was
arrested, placed in jail and a grand jury was
called in to investigate and their finding
was that the whole business was frame
up' on the colored man in order to have him
mobbed or sent to the penitentiary. The
colored man has been set free. Now, what
about this "pretty'' white woman who help
ed to frame up on this burly colored man
and her coterie Of conspirators? Why didn
the daily papers give as much publicity to
the vindication of this colored man as they
did in trying to have him murdered by
fastening the crime of rape upon him?
And what about this "pretty'' white woman,
who is not only a liar but a perjurer and
would-be murderer? Thousands of innocent
colored men are lying in their graves today
through just such dirty frameups as the one

have counted upon an immediate popular
response to such sentiments that would re-
veal itself in some active movement to
curb the excuses Of the mob spirit. I'm.
doubtedly the speakers and writers of ex-
pressions against lynching and mob law
are sincere and earnest in their utterances,
but the practical response to their plead
ings is slow to come. Nevertheless, every
effort on the part of the Southerners of
both races to try to save the South to
civilization is to be commended.
The South should respond to it's true
leaders and purge itself Of lynching and
mob vioence.-New York Age.

or more white citizens hereabouts In the
South the leading daily papers Of that Sec
ton are greatly disturbed lest the twelve
million colored citizens of the United States
enslave the ninety million white citizens
and thus is life for the white man of this
country just one damn thing after another.
Ain it sickening?
This thing of putting the entire colored
population down as cocksure Republicans
as the Republican leaders are doing in this
state and county and making no effort to
organize them, may cost the party the loss
Of a good many votes. No, they will hard
ly vote the Democratic ticket, but many Of
them have strong leanings toward the
Farmer.Labor ticket and in the absence of
personal workers among them in the in
terest of the G. O. P. there may be grave
danger of many of them wandering after
strange political gods.

THE WAR IN HAYTI

In his speech on Constitution Day Senator
Harding said in referring to American mill
tary operations in Santo Domingo and
Hayti:
''The censorship is no less strict than it
was during the secret conferences and con-
spiracies in Paris. Practically all we know
is that thousands of native Haytians have
been killed by American marines.'
Nevertheless it is possible to form an idea
of the character Of this war, which as Mr.
Harding says, is being waged, though never
declared, through the usurpation by the
Executive of powers not only never bestowed
on him but scrupulously withheld by 'Fthe
Constitution. -
The Haytians whom the marines are pur-
suing are known as Cacos Some are simple
bandits, some are revolutionists many are
men who have been driven to the hills in con-
sequence Of a mistake made by the American
administrators early in the occupation of the
island The Americans took too seriously an
OLD law requiring men to work the roads
four days month, there was rebellion
against the attempt to enforce it, Haytian
opposition to the Americans crystallized on
this issue and ever since stream of recruits
has been flowing to the bands of outlaws and
revolutonists
One OF the duties Of the American marines
has been to hunt down these bands Tt
has been described as a war of extermina-
ton. Samuel Guy nman, executive secre-
tary OF the Committee on Cooperation in La
Tin America, who made survey of the island
IN the summer of 1919 wrote in his report:
These outlaws go in bands numbering
from twenty-five to two hundred generally.
Not more than 20 or 80 per cent are armed.
and these are very poor shots, so that there
are few casualties among our men. They
are now making systematic drive and clos
ing on the bandits, and in some battles from
twenty-five to sixty are killed.
1t is with great hesitancy that one seem
1ngly passes criticism on our American ma
rlnes. 1t is the machine, not the man, that
IS to blame. From the military standpoint
1t IS natural to regard all life as Cheap
Another observer, Otto Schoenrich a New
York lawyer, the author Of book on Santo
Domingo and formerly secretary of the
Dominican Minister of Finance, heard t.un-
fortunate stories of torture Of prisoners by
water cure and by application Of red hot
matchets. Giving prisoners an opportunity
to escape and shooting them while escaping
was also said to have occurred''
Mr. Harding spoke Of thousands of native
Haytlans having been killed. James Weldon
johnson, field secretary of the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of the Colored
People, who visited Hayti recently says that
IN the five years of American occupation
more than three thousand innocent Haytians
have been slaughtered.
The Immediate provocation of the Ameri-
can occupation of Hayti was the violation
by mob of the French Legation at Port
au-Prlnce and the killing Of President Gull
laume Sam, who had taken refuge there
after causing the death of only 100 political
prisoners. And the purpose of the Ameri-
can occupation was to improve the govern
ment of Hayti New York Herald.
