LaSalle, on Monday, gave the

ception his friends say. There, as in
Dixon and Freepport, he was met by
a reception committee from the
Chamber of Commerce and taken to
the reception committee and taken
to the Kaskaski hotel where he was
guest of honor at luncheon. At the
high school auditorium he was greet
ed by one thousand farmers, busi-
ness and workingmen.
Col. C. r Miller, director of pub
lie works and buildings who made
the trip with the GOVERNOR said
yesterday that political leaders of
LaSalle, Lee and Stephenson coun-
ties we're unanimous in the opinion
that there had been a wonderful
change of sentiment concerning the
governor in northwestern Illinois
rhich hes heretofore been regarded
as unfriendly territory.
"The people up there want their
roads built at the governors figure
of $27,00 per mile and not at S4o,-
900 as advocated by the interests

1885 and 1921, 4,096 persons were
lynched in the United States; an
average of 1T year.
an 1919, there were SO, and 10
1920 65. BY far the larges number
of those killed in this manner were
Negroes; but of the SO lynched in
1919, 1 were white and Mexicans,
and of the 60 lynched in 1920, 10
were white. The greater number
of those crimes ar the result Of race
antagonisnl, and hav occurred in the
Southern States. Apologists for
this condition have sought to excuse
or at all events to palliate, these
offenSes upon the ground that the
lynchers were occcasioned by out
RACES committed by colored men
upon white women, and that in nc
other way than by summary pupu-
lar justice, could comparative safe
ty for white women be secured IN
those communities where there is
preponderance of colored popula-
ton. Statistics of these crimes re-
fute this theory. Of the 3,434 per-
sons lyncched from 1899 TO 1919,
only $40 We're charged with offenses
against women, and of the 264 Ne
groes lynched from 1914 to 1918,
only 28 were so accused. }

Southern States. Constitutional
objections were urged and AT the

NEW YORK, March 22.-The
following Memorial to the United
States Senate was read and adopted
at an Anti-Lynching Mass Meeting
held by the National Association for
the Advancement Of Colored People.
in the Town Hall, New York, on the
evening of March J., the meeting
being addressed by Senator William
M. Calder of New York, Representa-
tive Leonidas c. Dyer Of Missouri,
who introduced the Dyer Anti
Lynching Bill in House of Repre-
sentatives: by former Attorney Gen.
eral George W. Wickersham; and
by James Weldon Johnson, Secre-
tary of the National Association
for the Arrangement of Colored
People.
Memorial to the United States
Senate
The killing and burning alive of
human beings by nlobs in the United
States is reproach upon our coun-
try throughout the civilized world
and threatens organized govern
ment in the nation.
Since 1889 there bs.ve been 3443
known mob murders, sixty-four of
the victims being women. In only
q few instances has prosecution of
the lynchers been even attempted,
American mobs murdered sixty-four
persons in 1921, Of whom four We're
publicly burned at the stake.
The House of Representatives on
January IS, 1922, in response to in
sistent countrywide demand, passed
the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, which
invokes the power of the federal
government TO end the infalny o.
American mob murder.
This bill Is now in the hands Of
the United States Senate.
Wiekershani's Speech
Mr.. Wckershau said in part:
FOR many years, the number and
extent of lynchings in various parts
of the United States, have provok-
cd the adverse comment Of foreign
observers and competed sense of
national humiliation on the part Of
Americans. OF all forms Of Iawless-
MSS, this is perhaps the worst, Tor it
takes from daily constituted authori-
tes of the state their highest and
most solemn function, the admins
tration of justice.
"Laaless acts of this character
have been committed in many parts
of the country. Statistics nsed in
the recent debates IN the House OF
Representatives show, that between

day swing through northwestern III
inois, where, according to reports he

receptions at the three good roads
meetings held at LaSalle, Dixon and

Two thousand people are reported

complete the waterway and hard
road systems before the expiration
of his term of Office" is reported to
have brought approval from the big
crowd. The address at Odd Fellows
temple was preceded by luncheon
rendered the governor by the Free
port Chamber of Commerce, which
was attended by over five hundred

The Dixon reception was similar.
There, on Tuesday morning when
