The Lubbock avalanche. (Lubbock, Tex.) 1909-1922, 1922-05-19

long az a time without there being
some kind Of disagreement. OF
course there are some exceptions 20
the rule. Neither can the Caucas-
ians and negroes live longer in the
same towns and communities with
out serious trouble. II is inevitable.
There ought to be a separation for
mutual benefit
believe that the time has come
for the parting Of the ways with
out the white people shedding any
tears. except for joy. The negroes
are humans and should be treated as
such. At a safe distance.
Western Texas is not in the dan
gerous zone, at this time, but farther
east and south different conditions
exist. and really there is some danger
where there are any negroes az all.
We can better afford 20 do without
them than we can 90 run the risk Of
having our wives and daughters fail
ing victims 90 their wicked lusts.
Their room should be more desired
than their presence.
Lubbock County could colonize
her per cent Of them on some big
farm We ought TO give chem a bill
Of enforcement, as a final separation.
I believe that they would willingly
accare L.. II would not be right TO
annihilate them. for they are not
responsible for being in this cOun-
try. We are their superiors and al
ways win be- therefore, IL is the more
imperative that we treat them hum
aniy. but how can this be done when
al time least expected they seize
some innocent victim. like some fero-
cious beast seizes its prey Then
follow the tramping Of the law I'M
der foot, by the burning or hanging
Of black human beings. but IL is too

from awful suffering and death As.
tares are separated from wheat, so
the negroes ought 90 be separated
from the whites
Some might believe that II the
negroes were c0l0niZed, they would
n the course Of time. become greater
and Outnumbcr their superiOrs IN
these United States. like the Jews
became SO profile and greater than
the Egyptians during the former's'

state that 10 is unreasonable 70 be-
lieve TINT the God Of creation had
not answered the prayers Of our Pill
grim fathers. when they bent down
on their knees at Plymouth Rock,
and after thanking Him for safe
voyage across the ocean. prayed that
they might be able 90 organize and
maintain the kind Of government,
like that under which we are living
today. And after their descendants
having done as much for christian
ity and civilization as they have.
Such an idea would be unthinkable.

paper that farmer, in some part Of
that State was sick and unable TO

their teams, plows and drills and

read a news item in a paper not

of a house in the State of Illinois,

fathers in the Northern states think

supposed that they do, and one Of
their daughters screams were heard
thirty minutes apart and Il turned
out that she was held captive that

negroes. more than likely there
would be an old-fashioned burning
or hanging there. The ABOVE named
conditions are the ones under which
the kirvin citizens were impelled TO
