Sleeves Divorce
sCase Continued

Judson Sleeves of Fairfield was
married in 1887 to his first wife. She
died in 1911, leaving him with four
children. He continued to live on
Wilson street, Fairfield, but finally
went to live with his cousin a widow,
Phoebe Tipping of Kings Highway,
and her three daughters, leaving his
own children with one of his married
sons.
Finally, July 8, 1915, Judson mar
ried his cousin Phoebe, and they re-
turned to his home on Wilson street
to live. The Sleeves evidently did not
agree and Mrs. Sleeves left her hus-
band the first time in October, 1915
This time she remained away for over
a. year. Again in 1918 on the 18th
of April, she left him and. has been
gone ever since.
When Judson decided to obtain a
by his wife both claiming that the
other deserted. In court yesterday
when the case came up before State
Referee Joel Reed, Attorney George
Finklestone appeared in behalf of
Mrs. Sleeves with a telegram from
Detroit from his client stating that
she was unable to attend the divorce
proceedings.
This is about the third time that the
proceedings have been deferred due to
the absence of either Mrs. Sleeves or
one of her daughters who is a wit
ness for her. Judge Reed yesterday
heard the action of Judson in his ac-
ton for divorce.
The case was continued until next
Thursday, by which time Mrs. Sleeves
will have ample time to return from
suit. Attorney Paul S. Chapman rep
resented JudSOn Sleeves

A Citizen Worth
While

John Fields is a Negro. He has no
education to speak of. He lives on a
little East Texas farm. He attends
strictly to his own business. But John
Fields is good for anything he wants
at any merchandising establishment in
the town where he does his buying
and selling He owns his own home
and he has money in bank. And he
did it himself, with the help of his
wife.
The explanation is twofold. In the
first place, Fields works. In the sec
end place, he has something to sell
every month in the year. He runs a
twelve-month farm, instead of Il three
month or Il siX-month farm. He doesn't
go into winter quarters nor "lay by"
his crops. He always has n crop of
something coming on. If it isn't ap-
pies it's berries, and if it isn't berries
there are tomatoes and peaches and
fall garden truck. Fields plants win
ter turnips on his corn land and fall
beans on-his- cotton land, and makes
his soil bring him in 5000 to $500 an
acre And then when crops of that
sort give out Fields sells cordwood.
1t isn't all easy sailing for Fields.
Fields thinks he would like to go fish
ing. AT least he says that he laid OFF,
to go fishing as soon as he got his
home paid out. But by that time he
had the habit of working until he
couldn't find time for vacation. But
he has found out how to grow year
round income on a farm. That is a
discovery which a great many white
farmers haven't learned. He has
found, too, that it is better to farm n
few acres down to the last square foot
than to scratch around over n section
or two and have nothing much to show
for it. There are lots of farmers who
would profit by that discovery, also.
Not that Fields is trying to obtrude
his discoveries on anybody. He's too
busy. But as citizen that doesn't
make John Fields any the less worth
like him it would be a great thing for
both races in this part of the country.

Federal Anti
Lynching Bill

Would the mob which burned three
Negroes, at Kirvin, Texas, on Satur-
day, have been so bent on its atrocity
# it had known that every participant
who could be hunted out by federal
officers would be imprisoned for from
five years to life? Would the sheriff
have been so ready to hand over the
keys of the jail, had he known that
failure to perform his duty fully would
lay him open to a fine of $1,000 or five
years imprisonment, or both? Would
the county authorities be quite so ac
quiscent in this horror if they faced
the necessity of paying a $4,000 fine
immediately-$10, for each man?
We think not The lynching was pecu-
liarly cruel; two of the three men
burned died protesting their innocence
the only evidence against them being
the confession" of the third, very
likely extorted by torture One of the
leaders in the opposition in Congress
to the Dyer bill, which would provide
the federal penalties for lynching
listed above, was Representative Sum-
mers, of Texas. Yet Texas had 294
lynchings in the years 1SS5-1919, or
more than any other Southern state,
save Georgia and Mississippi. Every
such atrocity is worth dozens of
speeches in Congress as an argument
for "wiping out this barbaric stain, "
as President Harding has put it
