.FLORIDA'S CONVICTS
WERE LET AS SLAVES.
preston News Service)

Tallahassee Fla, April 19-The
expose OF the convict leasing system
IN this state has stirred the country
thoroughly. 1t had not been realized
generally that such a condition exist
ell. 1t was to put 1t tersely and truth
fully and without camouflage, actual
slavery.
For years it has been known that in
all sections OF the South system OF
peonage prevailed on plantations as
far as Negro labor was concerned. 1t
has not been confined to any one sec
ton OF the South. although it has been
more notorious in Georgia, where gey
era' cases got into the federal courts
through the instigation OF Col. Henri,
Lincoln Johnson. Negro plantation Ia
borers have been frequently kept in
debt to their employers by the manipu
lat1on of credit in the plantation stor-
eS. This practice has been going on
since the days of slavery and nothing
or any consequence has been done to
put an end to it, save the Georgia cas-
es. The National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People has
created considerable attention to this
EVIL by making surveys and reports Of
the existing conditions. But thus far
havc been unable to get any definite
action taken to put an end to this alb
ominable practice.
But the charges OF convict leasing.
which means the turning over Of white
men to private employers for their
own gain have aroused a feeling of
genuine opposition to the continuance
OF such system. Not all these men
nave been hardened criminals by anv
means. Many Of them from respectable
families, lured into the South by the
call of the road" But in this state
+vagrancy is a very serious offense and
severe penalty is exacted-punish.

DEMPSEY MAY NOT
ENTER RING AGAIN
preston News Scryicel

Chicago Ill, April 19.-Word has
come that Jack Dempsey may not en-
ter the ring again. Fortunately he has
at last found way to side step meet
ing contenders for the heavyweight
championship. Willy Jack Kearns is
saiG to he secretary OF the coal MIN
ing company of which Dempsey is the
president somewhere in the West 1t
takes considerable business ability to
operate a coal company and lots o.
nerve to make it successful venture.
Both of these elements appear to be
lacking in the makeup of the coal con
Germs president. With the combined
thinking of the head officials of New
York State, Muldoon and Kearns il
was found difficult to dodge meeting
worthy contestants for the champion
ship.
Sport fans are inclined to think
that this latest announcement OF
Kearns is just another camouflage.
Still bluffing the public. The field of
worthy contenders for the fight crown
is getting too full of frightful aspir-
ants to suit man with as small brain
capacity and as little nerve as Demp-
sey has. He has actually taken to the
tall timber in his latest move
Persons conversant with the coal
mining business know that this indus
try is exceedingly expensive to con-
duct in the Western states. If Dempsey
and his advisers had wished to have
really put up a stall that the public
would swallow they should have locat
ed in Illinois, Indiana West Virginia
Alabama or Pennsylvania. Regular
coal mining districts.
According to Kearn's statement the
pr rosed company owns 5000 acres of
agricultural land. This of course will
give them chance to thrive for Demp
sey is much better fitted for a plain
farmer than anything else.
In plain words. Dempsey Is afraid
to meet Harry Wills or Floyd Johnson
or any of that coterie of title aspir-
ants. 1t is true that there is a strong
sentiment in various parts of the
country against Dempsey and Wills
having bout for it appears that the
crown would pass to the Negro fighter
and this is what many white people do
not want to happen.

pentier low and wrested the white
mans championship from him. Hoots
and Kisses, mingled with applause anil
cheering greeted the appearance of the
black man; but even to the impartial
listener it was evident that the boots
and Kisses predominated.
The contrast between the rivals
was apparent as far as physical condi

flabby. He looked anything but tho
splendid athlete who met and defeated
Carpenter on September "a, last. Car

ounce of superfluous flesh. he appear

fight. His muscles were supple under
his clear skin, and if his brittle hands
can hold out he seemingly will be able

The benefit was huge success, both
