THERE is A DIFFERENCE.

The "jimcrow negroes" who are
continually repeating ''the North is
no better than the South" know they
are lying when they utter such rot.
The oppression Of the colored people
is ten thousandfold greater in the
South than in the North. Ninety per
cent Of the lynching occurs in the
South, and ALL Of the disfranchise-
.ment and jimcrow laws.
A little instance which is illuminat-
ing. A colored man was arrested in
Chicago last week charged with hav-
ing assaulted white. woman with a
diagnosed his case as dementia prae-
cox and he was committed to the
psycopathic hospital for treatment.
What would have happened in Geor-
gia? Well this is what did happen
in Georgia last summer even when no
white woman was involved. A col
ored man shot a white man and in
turn was shot by white mob. He
was taken to hospital where he died
shortly after. About midnight the
white mob went to the hospital to
get the. wounded colored man and
lynch him. s Exasperated at finding
that he was dead, the mob broke into
the dead room, got the corpse, car
ried it to- the outskirts Of the city and
burned it to Grip. The charred re-
mains were then returned to the hos
pital. This happened in the city of
Augusta, Ga, in the Year of Our
Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Twenty
one.
