The Topeka Plaindealer Twenty-First Year. IS W. A. WHITE A "CRACKER?" Emporian Joins the South in Attack on Negroes. At over the South race hatred is most causing itself in race riots. Race riots are often organized murderers. The actual murdering is done by the blacks and the whites. Members of one race are as guilty as the other in these carnivals of blood host. The violent crimes dies down, but the hate that makes the violence re-mains. And the injustice which breeds the hate which makes the violence continue. So other riots spring up in other times and at other places in America it is likely that the situation will grow worse once it grows better. If at bottom the causes of race hatred are economic, not social. And these economic causes come from conducting the explosive experiment of trying to make a race which regards itself as superior, live besides a race which has been taught to regard itself as inferior, and that in a deserves which is based upon the description that all men are created equals. The result of that experiment is a crash. For the situation is so dynamite. There is no more answer to the Negro problem in America than there is an answer to the race in a powder mill. Either the black race will have to leave America or the white race will have to leave the South. They simply cannot live side by side. The trouble for the moment comes from war. The Negro soldiers were treated as social equals by the people of Europe, by the English well as by the French and the Belgians and the Indians. It is said that this treatment of Negroes as social equals was confined to women 'of a certain class'. This is untrue French and Belgian Ethiopian colonials have been received socially class for class for generations. This is because they were not slaves never as a class were these colonials inferior. When the American Negro went to Europe he was treated as any other soldier. And because he was rather a sensitive man the case man type of "brute man"—certain women—"not women of a certain class" but women of a certain temperament in all classes is referred him to white men or less savage instincts. The race difference did not diminish the attraction of these white women for the case man type of man any more than the rice-like stone certain white men not "not of a certain class" but man of a certain kind from seeking black women. 20 The Negro man came back as the brown man came back to India and the yellow man to China treacherously puffed up. He had as pernicious. He talked about them. Now the economic situation requires that the Negro not as poor. He must not talk. For the industrial organization of the South requires a permanent hereditary work in class, cotton requires inferior labor. Cotton is king today in the South. It was before the Civil War. The Negro must keep his place by hereditary. If the royalty of cotton is to be maintained. The white man cannot do the work in the cotton fields. And it becomes necessary to make that work degrading. To make it degrading it is necessary to degrade the worker. Hence race hatred hides the social bar slurst against the Negro. Hence the bitter resentment at Negro education. Hence the demand that the "nigger should know his place." We must not blame the South. It is not because they are Southerners that they feel as they do and act as they do. Northern men going down there quickly assume the Southern attitude, and forget their theories. But we must not confuse the situation. We must recognize that the present attitude toward the Negro is the real aim of deempooled economic forces just as the other slavers of the Negro was based upon economic need would have no serious check to an attorney or an aristocratic government. But in a democracy it is a dynamic power it is unlucky the Negro it will keep blowing up. The school teaches the Negro that he is a human being endowed with certain common bones and fears and universal attributes. The church teaches that he is an immoral soul. These democratic forces must the hardest of economic need. The hardest of clean labor which must be degraded before it is free to be in the awful guilt of these forces in the explosion called the Negro problem. The solution? Who ever solved a cyclone? To show a particle shows conclusion in the man like Mr White formu- lating why harmons does not or it should between the two hey they continue to write than for that creates haired If we time in the cross obliterate to save out to predicts the whi- se the block when it has manufactured, and we are our prised to find a man like Mr. White leading off in the wholesale attempt to discredit the colored race and impede their progress by penning such not as the above. Such outbursts belong to the "lowbrows" of the white race, the Southern cracker" whose beastly lust makes the "cave man" pale into insignificance. He cannot be considered in the same breath with a beast. The suffering of the white beast. During the dark days of slavery he reared two families, one by his white wife and one by his black slave the latter he sold to provide insurance for his white family, and the only difference in them and now by his black offsprings are not placed on the auction block but instead they are burned at the stake murdered and robbed and cheated out of their earnings. William Allen White, author joinin that globe trotter and citizen of Kansas spreading the propaganda of the Southern "tracher." It seems like a dream but it appeared in the first colorful column of his Emperor Garrotte俊爵 is his thunder Talk of Tavae man" type Mr White has but to share at his white blake brothers Now Mr White if you Southern white men were made to obey the law and at the same time apply the same law to the colored people, and compel officers to execute the law irrespective of race or condition there would be no reason for any trace to seek another territory. The Christian religion was founded so us to make us our brother's keeper. The South is the black man's home by education and conquest. He filled the forest built the towns cities highways and fed the people from hard till on the farm. He joined the Union forces in the boks whipped and conquered his former masters who were trying to wreck this Union. Now if anybody moves it ought to be the other fellow. However, it is not necessary for anyone to move Make everybody obey the law white and black The Southern white man does not apply the law as a rule to colored people but govern them with their feelings. The American white people are no better than the French or English, may be a little worse. It is said that the first who came over were not of the royal blood and there must be something in the statement for we notice that most all American will honour us to Europe booking for pure blood and noble stock thus passing up the Southern Junchets and murderers. This American white man has nothing over which to glost. The South is to blame for all the outrages perforated upon the colored people. They come North East and West sowing the seed of discord, murder and riot, and in many instances win a hostofure well meaning Yankee like Mr White to assist in carrying on their dominant pristine The Negro is here to stay and he is going to dwell in peace with his white brother if it cost the life of every white brother in the whole South.

Shan July, at New York, secretary of the N.A.C.P. by a few oblards of Texas County, city of Austin, capital of the state of Texas. We would like for you to inform us of these oblards, since the sentiment of the murders of the latter class of people in your state, and will you as government set ally by and allow of treats to disgrieve the name of Texas without you having approved or dis- approval of the act through some cultural or moral announcement. Of course there are several reasons that can be offered by you not receiving official notice. It all the other officers in Texas are of the same stripe and colour that these men are, than no official notice would come to you. We would be glad if you would take the press reports and use your good others to see that these outlaws are banshed from other. They are no more and no better than men who lynch born or job banks as the class who resort to these methods ignore the laws and proceed to do just as they please and are more ownedly than the community, who rob banks from the fact that they have taken advantage of popular opinion in the south against progressive colored people who stand up to manhunt and fight and who are trying to demand of the southern white men equal rights before the law. Any white man who stands for control progressiveness like Mr. Shiloh will become unpopular and subject to all the outrages and insults that southern white men help upon the colored one. It seems that every man elected to an office in Texas must stand for these outragous principles at the wants to be popular with the gang who have no respect for law God or man. As governor you have the power to have a warrant issued for these gentlemen (1) and see to it that they are properly prosecuted and punished for this intolerable outrage upon a Christian gentleman, who is their superior to every man, and who was going about doing good work, helping every citizen of Texas. While the members of this organization are made at both sides, it never has as yet done anything to distance or abridge the privileges of other. The policy of the organization is to insist that degraded white men, such as those who assaulted Mr. Shallily and touch them to follow in the mistletoes of the Savior by losing his neighbor is himself. You will admit that you have a large number of white people in Texas and to the South make up on the order of these assassins and are now doing all they can to impede the progress of the colored people and are including the whites, who at last believe that the colored man is the image of God. We wish you would answer the question, as governor of Iowa, as an American citizen and as a believer in the Christian religion. "You can be more than the colored people of America and entitled to do the rights and duties under the law as a white man and as a woman and man. It is a fact that the lowest white man is more respected in Texas and recorded more in colleges and rights than the few black-colored men? We believe we want to be a decent southern and will allow the outcome of the battle to be white people on the side. people in Texas and not to a minute till at the time colored people are stood to be hung to an iron without setting them in a hole to make it loose and shoots secure, everybody has to be made to inspect the same laws and the man who preached to execute those laws should be hounded, upright, tortured, and capable of the white man can do.

The colored man in the south has been the hum and law abiding. If he had wanted to, he could have dismounted in first级 property by are out and was in thousands of dollars. He could have way back and assassinated the class of white men he suspected of attacking women, lynching and burning as they have a fair knowledge of these class of white people, who perhaps in such crimes and could have resented these outrages, but they are too magnanimous and too bad. You know it is a fact in love but all over the South, white men are exhibiting with colored women and raising families and nothing is being said about it, but it is colored in books conserved at a white woman your people are ready to lunch and burn him. Turn about is fair play and you should not hop up more upon the colored people than you would wont heaped upon yourself. You know that the race is being made so much in South that you can hardly intinguish one from the other. The mixed colored people are going north and moving in the white rice and their children are returning to the South and mating into the white rice, so you see the southern white man is trailing what he sees and we truly believe there are thousands of white people in the South with colored blood coursing their sons and don't know it and at the same time are cursing and abusing colored people and tracing the color line. My dear governor it is time to white man at the South is being treated to the conditions that our town has.

King chairman committee on foreign correspondence The annual report of Grand Master Monroe urged the members of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge to stand by the men of their race in business and every other walk of life. The reports showed that the organization owns a farm on which it is intended to erect a house for the care of aged widows and children of members of the order. It urged the different lodges in the jurisdiction to confer with other committees as to the best plans for building this home. From these committees will be selected a committee of the grand lodge, which will consist of representatives of Hercoles of Joticha, Knights Templar and Scottish Rite Masons. Urged Hall Ownership. It also urged the members to combine and lend their aid and energies to creating business for the race, in order to get clerkships and other employment for the colored boys and girls. A city with 10,000 people and not a shoe store owned by a colored man or in which a clerk of the race was employed was ridiculous, the report declared. If 5,000 would buy their shoes from a store owned by a member of the race it would give employment to several clerks and other people of the race. The report then declared that it was up to the Masons to take the lead in this direction. Spent $11,000 as Aid According to the report of the grand secretary, more than $11,000 was paid out in the last year on death claims and charity and burial claims.
