SPRINGFIELD TRAGEDY Again our boasted modern civilization has made a blot upon her intelligence by committing the grossest inhuman butchery and most heathen crimes ever perpetrated among socalled civilized men. Yet this most shocking killing and butchering took place in Springfield, the very heart of Illinois capital, in the shadow of Abraham Lincoln's monument, in hearing and in sight of the Governor of this commonwealth, and for two days and nights this drucken, heaten, ignorant, rowdy element overridden all law and order, and went anywhere shooting killing and lynching innocent men and women because they happen to be black, and still destroying their property which was the accumulation of half a century. As the result of this riot more than 8 are dead and 80 wounded, and fully 1,500 people are homeless and penitile. All of this was done upon innocent colored people. We believe like Governor Deneen, who says, "this outbrake upon innocent colored people is an intolerable as it is inexhaustible." It is indeed a most atrocious crime and every man or woman who participated should be severely delt with. The time has come in this country of ours that the Negro race must unite ourselves to assist the lawbinding citizen to quell, suppress and stop such feindish outbreaks as those of Springfield, Atlanta and Evansville. We as a race must not be so afraid, but be prepared to protect ourselves and our homes. When these brutes come to your home let him destroy your home over your dead body. Be brave, protect yourself; the world likes a brave man and abhor a coward—so don't run like a rabbit at everything, but defend yourselves. MOB VIOLENGE DEPLOR That mob violence, bayonets and bullets will never solve the race problem is the opinion of Rev. J. Cornelius Reid, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist church, who in a sermon last evening discussed at length the racial troubles at Springfield, Ill. "Let right prevail, uphold law and order, and the Negro problem will take care of itself," was the theme of his sermon. The preacher said in part: "The city of Springfield, Ill., now takes its turn in furnishing the world with a new and bloody chapter and mob cowardice and race hate. The parallel comparison of the Atlanta riot and the Springfield mob reveals the same spirit; reason dithered, sane minds rendered incompetent, peaceful and harmonious relationship becomes a farce, religion a dream, the ties of brotherhood an echo, the power of education as a civilizer a thing of contempt, all because of the usual crime." 'The burning of homes, beating and killing of innocent people, is an evidence that all who were in the pathway of the mob, whether Negroes or protectors of law and order, were accessories after the fact to the usual crime.' The psychology of a mob of supposed rational beings is hard to determine. Can it be that this uncontrollable thirst for human blood comes from an honest desire to mete retribution to the offender regardless of race, because of such a crime? Or is it an inherent hatred of a dispicable race that is trying to claim all the rights of full manhood? The mob's indiscriminate action toward innocent Negroes will not in reality intimidate them, but will make the problem more intricate in its solution. 'The American Negro possesses the same progressive spirit, alertness of mind, keenness of observation, braveness of heart, inate power of resentment of a wrong, as the American white man, and justice alone can harmonize these similar forces. The racial situation does not present a dark aspect; all that is necessary is for the majesty of the law to be upheld by those in authority. Duty, must be the watchword. It is useless to attempt to reason with a mob of frenzied men—a determination to conquer, if need be, with bayonets and bullets in the hands of authorized agents of the law is the most effective solution of mob violence. "There are thousands of white men whose hearts beat as true as steel to the administration of justice and right, and the gravity of no crime committed by a human being can upset their reason. Gov. Deneen, Mr. Chaffin; Mr. Loper and the worthy sheriff are the type of men all oppressed citizens should look to for protection. There will be no retaliation from the Negroes as long as such men exist unless manhood be outraged to the most extreme limit of human patience. "The eye that never sleeps is watching. It is divinely written that wrong shall not always triumph over right. The homes of innocent colored people of America are constantly in jeopardy. The mob spirit is not confined to any special state. There can be no peace of mind among Negroes knowing that racial hate is robbed them of protection. Negroes must be protected, but first the Negro should learn to protect himself in time of danger. If the Negroes of Springfield had remained in their homes, defending them as best they could against a mad mob, and even suffered their bodies to be burned in ashes with their homes, instead of 'taking to the woods,' brave, modest and loyal white men would have applauded them and even died for such manifested courage. True sympathy cannot be extended to a coward. The Negro must prove his metal, and he cannot do it by cringing before a mob. It is the innocent Negro who is most concerned relative to to the acts of a freazied mob."—Sioux City Journal. 6th.. ANNUAL SESSION hold of Ruth No. 21. JURISDICTION OF IOWA, G. U. O. OF O.

Was the citron tree the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden? Some persons think it was.

"A word silk spoken is like piles of gold in pictures of silver." And in the Song of Solomon. "As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons." And again. "Stay me with dagons, comfort me with apples, for I am sick of love." Hia Discovery Cholly—You remember I told you yesterday that Miss Perkins told me the night before that she would marry me.

Says the Tramway and Rall: ‘way World (London), as abstracted io the Electrical Review (New York): “The brake consists of two steel ‘shoes, each formed of a number of ‘poles placed so that they alternately become north and south poles when the carrent 1s passed through » single ‘exciting coll, Excited in this way, the shoes are drawn down upon the rail midway between the wheels of the car with a force of several tons. Ex. clting current {s furnished by the ‘motors, running as generators, thus rendering the brake indepondent of the trolley circuit. Between the two shoes is connected a channel fron and a system of brakelevers and chains attached to brake spindles at each end of the car to enable the shoes to be pressed down upon the track by band tn the usual manner of track-brakes. It fs intended to use the brake in this way for controlling the speed of the car on downgrades, and for slowing ‘up under usual conditions. When thus ‘used the car can be stopped elther by Increasing the pressure due to the hand-lever, or by exciting the electro- magnets. ‘The thrust occasioned by the retarding action of the brake is taken by a tongueshaped steel brack- ct, which is bolted to the truck and engages with Jaws on the sides of the magnet. The wearing shoes of the brake are attached to the poles of the magnet, and the boits may be renewed when necessary. ‘The exciting colle are entirely inclosed in @ watertight case.” Some men are born bald. some achteve It, and others acquire it after marian’: TO AND FROM IOWA STATE FAIR Lip THis our AND Shing rrwirn vou Waking alcntage of our Factory Sule of Pianos, now in progress, PIANOS $25, $42, $61 AND UP F.
