Started by K. K. K.
Ku Klux Klan circulars warning
the Chicago free thinker to "stop
stirring up trouble in Mobile
County" were thrown about the
streets of the city when Darrow APP
peared here last week to lecture on
Social Crimes" before a crowd of
nearly 1000 in the Lyric Theatre.
Murmurs of amazement rose to cries
of indignation when the champion
of evolution began to advocate what
his audience understood as social
equality for the black man." Dar-
row repeated, in part, a speech he
had made a short time before at q
Negro academy.
Lynchings and discrimination
against the Negro are disgrace TO
the North and South alike" the Chi
cagoan is quoted as saying. .t .
"In Chicago, st. Louis, even IN
Springfield, the home of Abraham
Lincoln, Negroes are accorded the
same unjust treatment, and the SAINT
horrible riots occur as here.
81 can't help you, you will have
to help yourselves, but l advise an
attitude of defiance towards the
white man who calls himself your
Friend How has he manifested his
friendship?
"By hanging and burning you, by
making you do his work, and use his
back door, refusing to let you enter
the best hotels and to use the best
coach in the train, and making you
sit in the rear of the street car.
THE. only front place yae white
man has ever given you is in the
battle line. There you can stop the
bullets, but when you return home
you can't use the sidewalks. You
have to use the road. What can the
colored man do to help himself?
81 see you pray, but l don't SO.
why. Your God must be a white
man considering the way he treats
you. No doubt, there will be a Jim
Crow law in your heaven when you
get there.
"You can sing. l heard you sing
Sweet Land of Liberty but ! don't
see how you can. | don't sing it
because | know it's not true.
But you can work and gain a
place for yourself if you can do bet
ter work than the white man. You
are being recognized and you have
some friends who are not afraid to
sit at the table with you.
81 have done so and even drank
bootleg liquor with you, and in what
better way can friendship be mani
fested?"
A demonstration following the
meeting. With racial sentiment on
edge, mob vengeance was feared by
county officials. Mobile is quivered
with anger at what it considers un-
warranted interference by an "out-
sider."

 FOUR CASES

 On March 2S, Hjalmar Carlson, an alien, pleaded guilty, before U. S. Commissioner Boyd at Fairbanks, to a charge of illegal hunting, and was fined s2OO

 On March 31, O. Frederickson, an alien of St. Timothy, pleaded guilty in the U. s. Commissioners court at Fairbanks to the charge of trapping without an alien license, and was fined $150 and costs.

In passing sentence on Frederickson, the court in both cases stated that he made the penalties quite moderate due to the small quantities of furs caught and handled by Frederickson and in view of his ill health i Warden Dufresne states that for some time he had received reports of the operation of Frederickson and at the first opportunity to obtain suffi cient evidence for conviction the two cases were filed.
