An Exponent of Truth and Justice GOVERNOR CONDEMNS LYNCHINGS Arkansas Executive Says Mohs Have No Respect For God Nor Man. MUST BE STOPPED Declares He Will Urge The Present Legislature Of His State To Fix Responsibility On Officers Who Allow Prisoners To Be Taken By Mobs Following a statement in the daily press that Governor Thomas C. Mellin of Arkansas would reopen legislation to summarily dismuse from offenders any sheriff or other officers permitting lynching in the State of Arkansas the editor of The Argus wrote Governor Mellin for a further statement of his feelings along those lines. In reply the Governor sent a copy of his message that was delivered before the Arkansas General Assembly January 27, following the lynching of Henry Lowery at Nodaway a few days ago. The Governor's Letter Editor J. K. Mitchell. 2241 Market Street. N. Louis, Mo. Dear Sir: Governor McKinne takes me to knowledge receipt of your kind letter of January 29, and say to you that he has perhaps been quoted a bit wryly, in that he did not say that he advocated a law to mammary dislims from other life or other affairs, permitting lymphings. He does advocate a law painted out in the enclosed carbon copy of his message to the General Abunddy. Respectfully, C. P. NEWTON. Secretary. Gov. McKinne's Message January 29, 1822. Mr. Spencer: Murder evidence is an assault, first upon law and order and constituted government, and second upon the life of the individual, but no amount of philipophilizing upon this assault will be regarded by the muth when some form of male do not reunion; they have no sense of justice; no respect for God or man. We must devote methods of exerting surmiser to the muth spirit. Others who will not protect their prisoners should be removed from authority. An officer who permits a prisoner to be taken from his custody by self-constituted augustors, should be made to suffer for their condemnance. The Attorney General of the state or any Prosecuting Attorney of any district, might be empowered to proceed against such offending short of either officer, and a statute promising this should be enacted by the present General Assembly. The launch in Minnesota County yesterday will stand out as a comprehensive disguise to any State. In this particular case there was no simplicity that the courts could not or would not promptly and properly. This instance is fairly typical of the newness of illegal emancipation. There is no need to delineate the horrible angles of this abjection, which is a subject for further collection upon the part of citizens who believe in law and order and who consider emancipation in any form. I issued that your homosexual body address itself to an early consideration of a bill to fix the opportunity specifically upon the officer who negligently abhorred or was present in his duty in protect the life of his pursuer, making an part of it the presumably offence of his office, and giving the Attorney authority to institute such action as may be necessary in any county in the state, necessitating that local authorities are equally仔细ly led for the prospect of a compromise which might be an reasonably handled against an officer as another a helpful criminal prisoner. CANDLEMAS SERVICE AT THE ALL SAINTS CHURCH SUNDAY EVE Candiances Day will be observed at All Saints Episcopal Church Sunday evening with a chapel rebellion, pertinent and the proclamation of double hearsay, February 2 in the dual Candiances Day and is observed in honor of the Purification of the blessed Mary. In older times condoms were burned at the door to ward off still spills. In Europe the penis belongs to a Gay Urologist whose products prevent chlamydia. An old Dutch saying is: The St. Louis Argus THE MAYORALTY AND THE NEGRO The mayoralty situation in St. Louis is attracting a deal of attention at this time. While many politicians among the Negroes are slow about committing themselves before the last filing day, yet there are a few who have expressed themselves on the subject. As the case now stands with Col. Robt. Burkham having filed for the office and Mayor Kiel a vowed candle due for the third term, it is hard to say with any degree of certainty just how the Negro would vote. But one thing that is noticeable is that no candidate now, as in the past, can count upon the Negroes when filing for office. Two new features have entered the Republican politics of this city, one is the Negroes claim for political recognition as the price for his votes and the women entering into politics. That the Negroes are willing to follow any faction that will give him a place in the politics of the city is a pretty safe prediction. A. W. Lloyd, who has filed for the Board of Aldermen from the 17th Ward is assumed of the almost solid support of the Negroes of the city. It being argued that surely the Negroes are entitled to one of the twenty-eight KU KLUX KLAN ENTERS HOUSTON PostsWarning Proclamation In Negro Neighborhoods HOUSTON, Tex., Feb. 2.—The Ku Klux Klan has been at large here and has posted the following proclamation aimed in Negro neighborhoods, on champs, hats and the like: "If I Known and Herely Proclaimed That this organization, composed of native born Americans who accept the benefits of the Christian religion, proposes to uphold the dignity and authority of the law. No innocent person of gay color, creed or lineage has any just cause to fear or condemn this body of men. We propose to protect the innocent under all circumstances. Our creed is opposed to violence, yinchings, etc., but we are even more strongly opposed to the things that cause yinchings and molk rule. "Co-habitation of white men with Negro women is against the laws of this state is against the interest of both race and is the direct cause of racial trouble. We want no more half-breeds. "The eye of the unknown hath seen and death constantly observe the man or woman, white or black, who disrece gives this warning. 'Whatsoever thou screet, that shall ye also reap.' Without regard to official, social, or financial position, this warning applies to all persons alike living within the jurisdiction of this Klan. "Be it remembered that your sins will find you 'out.' Do not deceive yourself. You cannot deceive us and we will not be mucked. "This warning will not be repeated. Mene Mene Tekel Upharsen KNIGHTS OF THE KU KLU KLAN NORTH CAROLINA MURDERERS WILL NOT BE PUNISHED Members Of Mob Who Shot Down Negroes Will Not Be Brought To Justice For Fear Of Recurrence Of Violence. Associated Negro Press WARRENTON, N. Car., Feb. 2—All efforts to apprehend members of the mob which broke into the jail, removed two Negroes held there after an armed rifle with whites over 10 cents-worth of apples, and shot them to death, were set aside today in the anxiety of authorities to forestall a recurrence of violence. The murderers, therefore, will never be brought to justice. Seven of the nine Negroes left in the jail by the mob were today hurried to Kailigho for safe keeping, and this afternoon five additional arrests, were made and the prisoners also rushed to Kailigho. Four other Negroes for whom warrants are out have escaped. The Warrenton Home Guard, ordered out by Governor Morrison last night was under arms all day, and the Henderson Home Guard also stood in readiness to respond to any call. However, tonight we further outbreak was regarded as probable. The courser's jury held an inquest quickly returned a verdict of "death at the hands of unknown persons." All the witnesses testified to their inability to identify any members of the mob. PHILADELPHIA 134,098 PTITSBURG 37,688 NEGROES Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 2—The Negro population of Pittsburgh, rub- tled on October 22, 1920, was 57,088, an increase of 12,065 or 47.1 per cent, the largest business annuated. Negroes in Philadelphia numbered 354,600, an increase of 40,620, or 58.5 per cent. Published In The Interest Of Colored People ST.LOUIS,MO.,FRIDAY,FEBRUARY 4,1521 members of the city's law-making body. Weight and Measures The question of weight and measures is being discussed among Negroes just as keenly as the lines are drawn between Kiel and Koeln. A weight to the mayor so far as they are concerned is Frank Slater, and J. N. McKelvey. The measures are the long promised fire department by the mayor, which some call a "political football." However, some think these wrinkles could be ironed out if the mayor will lend his support to the Negro candidate for the Board of Aldermen. Some are still friends of John Schumoll and don't hesitate to express it. In the mean while it is said that Ed. Koeln is making an inroad into the Negroes political strength that will have a telling effect in the primaries. It is generally known that Negroes have a deal of confidence in Edw. W. Forstel, whom they call the "brain" in the Koeln faction. The Citizens Republican Club is looked upon favorably by a large number of Negroes because they favor particularly clean and honest election; in that co-operation is common ground. CHURCH RECALLS FORMER PASTOR Dr. C. L. Fisher Asked To Return To Birmingham Baptists After Failing To Get Any Other Minister To Please Them. Associated Negro Press BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 2—Members of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church settled the question of a permanent pastor. Nearly 500 members gathered in a special conference and elected Rev. Charles I. Fisher, of Hartford, Conn., pastor. He is a native of New Orleans, La., and served the 16th St. Baptist Church, one of the most beautiful edifices in this country owned by Colored for 12 years as pastor. He started the structure of the present building and resigned and accepted other work; two pastors have served the church since his resignation and for nearly six months the church has been without a pastor. Rev. Mr. Fisher is one of the foremost scholars and preachers of our Race. He was graduated from Leland University, New Orleans, and the Seminary Department of Chicago University. CARNEGIE HERO FUND MAY INCLUDE 2 COLORED MEN By Associated Negro Press. CHESTER S. BUR, Feb. 2.—There is considerable probability that the Carnegie Hero Fund will include the names of Lex Kennedy and Macery Young, two young Colored men who saved the life of little Mary Alice Marshall, white, last summer at a riffle of their own lives and safety. Frank L. Marshall, father of the little girl has been anxious to have the occurrence brought to the attention of the Carnegie authorities, and Mr. David Hamilton who has had charge of the correspondence, said that he has had a reply to his letter which indicates that the matter will be taken up. It will be recalled that on August 9th last, little Mary Alice Marshall, while picking grapes on an old well, which was twenty-eight feet deep and had eight feet of water standing in it at the time. Lex Kennedy and Macery Young, aroused by the outeries of those who witnessed the scene, rushed into the yard with a rope and descended into the well and sent the little girl up to safety in the nick of time. It was a brave and many dead, and the people of this community will be glad to see the exploit given the recognition that it deserves.

A.E.MALONE LEADS FOR REGISTER OF THE U.S.TREASURY Henry Lincoln Johnson And R. S. Abbott Win In Second And Third Choice In Poll Of Fifty Editors QUESTIONAIRES WERE SENT OUT TO 100 Ten Other Missourians Are Mentioned For High Honor. More Replies Are Expected. Many Politicians Have Their Eyes Turned Toward Washington. As March 4th draws near, more interest is being shown among politicians and political leaders of the Race in what they call "patriotism" that is expected to come to Race men when the Republican Party goes into office and takes hold upon the reins of this government. The one high office which is considered as a " Cabinet" post, (the Register of Treasury) is being exed by many of old as well as the young and the new in politics. And from all indications, about March 1st will be found around the Capital scores of office seekers with honournets and friends, making inroads on the "powers that be" for political preferment. Editors have been slow to advance their ideas or preference for the high office of the Register of Treasury and as a result, there has been very little said on the subject. That there is a large number of eligible is shown by a poll of one hundred editors made by The St. Louis Argus, about two weeks ago. In as much as we had not committed ourselves on the subject as to our preference in the matter, nor suggested any names, it looks like a pretty fair idea of how the editors are thinking on the subject. In our questionnaire we asked the editors to give first, second and third choice for Register of Treasury on the promise that we would publish the results. Malone First Choice A tabulation of fifty replies which are all received up to date, Aaron E. Malone of St. Louis is made first choice; Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia, second choice and R. R. Abbott, editor, Chicago Defender, third choice. A. E. Malone received 12 first choice, choice, 2 second choice and 1 third choice, a total of 15 votes. Henry Lincoln Johnson received 6 first choice, 3 second choice, and 2 third choice, a total of 11 votes. R. S. Abbott received 2 for first choice, 2 for second choice and 1 for third choice, a total of five votes. The remaining votes were scattered from Massachusetts to Florida, Among Missouri voted for, wore, Dr. J. R. A. Crossland 3; J. Silas Harris 2; J. E. Mitchell 4; N. C. Craws 2; Dr. Chas H. Phillips Jr. 1; J. M. Weil 1; C. J. Calloway 1; W. C. Hueston 1; Prof. Joe Rowla 1. Other Names Voted For Illinois: Ed. Morris, Ed. Wright, Col. Otis B. Duncan, J. R. Lynch, Tabern and Swann. Ohio: Patterson, Seichorough, Cottrill, Joe Jones and Fleming. New York: Chas Anderson, Raisom, Rozell, Weldon Johnson, Charandler Owens. Tennessee: R. R. Church, H. A. Royd, Vernon, Napier. Georgia: Ben J. Javis. Florida: W. Cohn. Fabriana: W. Conn. Arkansas: Sculp A. Jones. Pennsylvania: A. Steven and S. H. Reading. Oklahoma: E. Barbour, G. W. Sau- ner. Kentucky: Phil Brown. Mississippi: Perry Howard. Massachusetts: Monroe. Trotter. Maryland: Fitzgerald. Washington, D. C.: E. J. Scott, J. R. Hawkins. North Carolina: Chas. Moore. Minnesota: Wm. R. Morris. The above miscellaneous vote ranged from 1 to 3 votes each. All editors who have not answered to date are expected to do so at their very earliest convenience. The re- sults of which will be published later.

Besides' Mr. Villard's address, the Association will render a program, which will include musical numbers by Mrs. Walter A. Giles and Miss Verna L. Beaumont. Rev. John W. Day, Pastor of the Unitarian Church of the Messiah will preside. It is predicted that a large crowd will be present, and those desiring scats will do well to come early. ST. LOUIS POPULATION OF NEGROES IS 69.603 WASHINGTON, D. C. The Director of the Census has issued a preliminary statement of the population of St. Louis. The figures are 772,887, comprising 742,742 whites, 694,633 Negroes and 559 others (Chinese, Japanese, and Indians). The figures for 1910 were whites 642,887; Negroes, 172,888; others 581. The white population constituted 90.9 per cent of the total in 1920 and 93.5 per cent in 1910, while the Negro population constituted 9 per cent of the total in 1920, and 6.4 per cent in 1910.

Of the total population of St. Louis in 1920, the males numbered 383,438, or 49.6 per cent and the females, 380,450, or 50.4 per cent. In 1910 the corresponding figures, were males, 343,608, or 50.4 per cent; females, 310,961, or 49.6 per cent. The ratio of males to females was 98.5 to 100 in 1920, as against 461.5 to 100 in 1910. Y. W.C.A. RECEIVES $1500 FROM ESTATE OF MADAM WALKER Y. W.C.A. RECEIVES $1500 FROM ESTATE OF MADAM WALKER As shown in the annual report of Dr. Amanda V. Gray, Branch Secretary, the challenge of the late Madam C. J. Walker was met by Wheatley Branch. Madam Walker, during her lifetime, proposed to give to Wheatley Branch the sum of $1500.00 provided the Association raised the same amount, by January 1, 1919. The Association raised it's quota but on account of Madam Walker's death her part could not be paid until one year had elapsed. This sum was recently paid from her estate and as a result the building has been freshly painted and some interior decorating has been done. Wheatley Branch took peculiar pride in this achievement and the challenge of Madam Walker was typical of the big-hearted members of our race who have acquired wealth. MRS. HARDING SAYS NEXT PRESIDENT WILL GIVE THE NEGRO RACE SOUARE DEAL MRS. HARDING SAYS NEXT PRESIDENT WILL GIVE THE NEGRO RACE SOUARE DEAL (By Syndicate Press Bureau) (Bry Sympante Press bureau) WASHINGTON, B. C. Feb. 2. Mrs. Harding, wife of the President, elect Harding was interviewed by a representative of this bureau. She was extremely busy packing and preparing to move from her Wyoming home, but was willing to spare the time to extend a greeting of cheer to the Colored people of the nation. She said: "I thank the Colored press for the support witch they gave Senator Harding." When introduced to Mrs. M. L. Gray, president of the Negro Woman's Republican League, she extended her hand, and with a smile that one could see came from the heart, stated, "The wonderful support that was given to Senator Harding by the Colored women of our great nation shall ever be green in our memory," and I knew Senator Harding will give to the Colored citizens of our nation a square deal."

Brazeton's donation increases the CONFERENCE AT JEFFERSON CITY WELL ATTENDED In the audience were quite a few members of the legislature who listened to the proceedings with a deal of interest. Speaker of the House, Hon S. F. O'Fallon, who addressed the meeting was received with wild applause. He told his hearers that he was pleased to be associated with Mr. Moore as he had found Moore to be intelligent, and a gentleman, and was entitled to every consideration, "and he shall have it" continued the speaker. Mr. O'Fallon said he was in sympathy with the bill introduced by Mr. Moore and that he expected to take the floor and urge the cessare when it comes up for consideration. Mr. W. L. Vanderventer, floor leader, of the Republicans, also spoke encouragingly of the bill. He said the Negroes were entitled to representation in the law-making body of the State. "The white people of the State owe your people a debt of gratitude that they can never pay," said the speaker. "With proper educational advantages, you will in twenty years, be equal with any race educationally," he said. Attorney Geo. L. Vaughn of St. Louis, addressed the conference, pointing out" the many needs of the Negro youths of the State.

HARDING SILENT ON APPOINTMENTS OF COLORED MEN Has Given No Indication Of His Intentions. May Call Limited Number Leaders For Conference. Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON. D. C., Feb. 2.—The Colored men being appointed by the incoming administration will not down. There is considerable squirming by the leaders on the matter but it still remains one of the vexing problems of the present political situation. President-elect Harding, as yet, has given no indication of his probable attitude in this matter of Negro appointments. It is not even known here whether he has been approached concerning the disposition he will make of the question when it is brought to his official attention as the President. In a very general way he has already agreed that she Negro is part and parcel of the entire body politic. But he has given utterance to no specific intention of what he intends doing for the Colored man and brother when he comes to distributing the political plums of his administration. There is said to be a considerable number of intelligent, well educated Colored men—many of them in Washington—who will argue President Harding follow the policy of making his apparent rights of black men to office. Whatever this may mean nobody in particular appears to know or cure. What the wife once want is "jobs" with small regard for either the ethical or social elements in the way of their cutting them. William Howard Taft has sounded what may believe to be a solitary warning of the incoming administration. He has said, rather falsely that the Colored leaders themselves should call a halt to all demands that seek to procure Federal appointment for Colored men in the South. While it may seem rather fat fetched to interpret Mr. Taft's gestures adjoining Colored men in a warning to Mr. Balding, something it appears to be Try The Famous Llyra Hair Beautifier If your Hairdresser Cannot Supply you, get it from the nearest Drug Store or direct from THE SLAUGHTER SYSTEM 3001 Lawton Ave. St. Louis, Mo.

STARTING NEXT FRIDAY FEB. 11 "Double Adventure" A Thrilling Tale of the Outdoors featuring the most fearless man in the world CHARLES HUTCHISON, The Amazing Stunt Marvel FOUR ACTS VAUDEVILLE AT BOOKER WASHINGTON Wells and Wells, trapese artists, feature a good four act bill at The Booker Washington Theatre this week. These performers, man and woman, are gymnasts of the stellar class, their acts consist of rapid evolutions, gravity defying balancing and other wonderful feats that require strength accuracy and artistic finish. These performers are generously applauded by the audience. Probably next best on the bill is the team of Davenport and Davenport. Their act is made of rapid-fire conversations, sometimes caustic, but nevertheless witty. The man is adapt in the use of popular slang, and succeeds in keeping the audience in a fit of laughter. They also introduce a number of good songs. Big Company Next Week The Martin and Walker Musical Comedy Company, of twelve, performers, will open a one week engagement at The Booker Wassington Theatre next Monday. This is the first company of a long string on the circuit of the Theatre Owners Booking Association, to come to St. Louis. It has made a big hit in large theatres of the south and a top-notch entertainment is expected of them here. Real Daredevil Next Friday Charles Hutchison, the "bravest daredevil of the screen," will be seen at The R. W. next Friday, Feb. 11, in the first episode of the new Pathe serial "Double Adventure." The serial is a succession of startling thrills. Among them, Mr. Hutchison climbs like a fly up the side of a tall building, jumps a motorcycle across a perilous ravine, climbs over a yawning chasm upon a slender rope, jumps from a falling tower into a tree, leaps from one machine to another going seventy miles an hour, swims through the rapids, and battles with sharks, all for the girl he loves! VOICES. OUR SENTIMENTS We observe that the tendency among Negro theatre people to fling jibes and jests at the women who seek to have and keep their hair straight and properly kept is growing. They do not consider that white women spend more time in keeping their hair in good condition than upon any other part of the body. A woman who neglects her hair, is much of a slovenr and not good for domestic purposes. Our stage artists should be able to find some more appropriate object of jibes and ridicule than the proper attention our women give their hair, and if they get further away from the burnt cork and that stage act they would be doing a good work. -Negro World. THE PENDLETON — A review of popular favorites has been arranged by Mr. Austin for The Pendleton Theatre patrons, during the coming week. The first offering will be Augustus Thomas' romance of the border, "Rio Grande" on Sunday, On Monday Marshall Nellan's Speelhurst, "Dinty" will be shown. Tuesday, Basil King's powerful drama of the unseen world, "Earthbound." Wednesday—Fannie Hurst's beautiful story of a boy's genius and a mother's love, "Humogesque," Thursday—Cecil B. DeMille's vivid story, "Something To Think About." Friday—the appealing picture of the Northwest, "Dehob 'my Wife'"; and on Saturday, Feb. 12—the sensational melodrama of night-life in the great metropolis, "While New York sleeps." THE STAR — The feature program at The Star Theatre next week will open with "The Boomerangs" this Saturday. The story deals with the machinations of unscrupulous filmmakers, who seek and obtain complete control of the food supply of the country. Through force of circumstances the son of one of the plotting magnates sets in motion the machinery of the law against the conspirators, who are convicted but released on suspended sentence. In ferries with the economic and industrial troubles of the principal characters is a double love story. On Sunday the feature will be Frank Mayo in "Honor Bound." It is the story of a society neer or do well who loses his friends and his dances through his weakness, and who is given a last chance to redeem himself in a new country. Face to face with the primitive he develops latest powers and qualities which not only relocate him in the eyes of the world but which finally win back for him the love he had lost. The super-feature for Thursday at The Star will be Charn Kinhall Young in "Mid Channell." It is a production that is a slice of life—the tenacity, courage story of a man and a woman who could longenear where it was not to be found—and who, at most, discovers him each other. THE MARY SCHULZ — Lena Hurst and Mayo will be featured at The Theatre of New York and Dearborn. It is the story of the woman who was born in the city and lived there for many years.

Governor McRae, the titinent is now. The burning-lynching of Henry Lowery, a Negro at Nodena, Mississippi County, Arkansas, last week by a mob, has upset the common order of things, and the thinking people of the country are now wondering where are we as a nation, really coming. To be sure, burning-lynchings have occurred before in this land, but the aspects of this Arkansas case is just a little different from the others. It is said that the governor of Arkansas had promised Lowery a fair trial upon his return to the state. The governor had ordered that the prisoner be brought direct to Little Rock for safekeeping. All of these facts were in the hands of the officers who had charge of the prisoner. Contempt For Governor's Orders The refusing to obey the orders of Governor MeRae is a downright case of contempt, pure and simple. The laws of the country must be respected. The governor of a state has wonderful power. He is the chief executive. The head of the army and navy of his state. All power of the state is behind him to enforce the laws of the land. Then, why a lynching? Press reports were far in advance of the actual lynching at Nodena, telling of the surrender of the prisoner by the officers to the mob. The people will want to know didn't the news reach the governor's ears in time for further action on his part? According to the statement the officers turned over their prisoner in blake style. The mob, after chaining their victim to a log, piled wood and brushes about his body then poured on oil, all of which was done in the presence of women and children, and while the victim was yet alive. Then applied the torch, and stood by, watched with heathen-glee, the poor wretch struggle in the flames of hell. Then a second application of oil was made to hurry the then charred body to ashes, and the murderers made not attempt to hide their identity. We are quite hopeful that some of the members of the mob will be punished. Gov. McRae has the opportunity of his life to do the big and manly thing. This is undoubtedly the psychological moment to strike and strike hard, that serpent, mob-law-rue in America. A blow from the South will have a telling effect on the futur. The people have waited, lo these many years for God to raise up a man in the South to strike the knockout blow. We believe that Governor McRae is the man: He has made a good start. His cause is right. He can have nothing but a satisfied conscience of a duty well performed, in his efforts to stamp out mob violence. Isn't it time to emancipate the South from the curse of mob-law? But who will make the start? We mean a real, honest-to-God start. Governor McRae, the time is ripe. The psychological moment is now.

Los Angeles Times It is inescapable that the citizens of California would, for one moment permit such bloody and violent outrages upon any class of our residents or upon any individual member of an alien race as were practiced by the Ku Klux Klan in the South. Whatever offenses against law and order may be committed in this State are amply covered by our system of justice and can safely be left to its proper administrators. We have no need for a Ku Klux Klan to aid in the settlement of the Japanese question; we have no desire to see the fair name of our State furnished by lawless secret organizations. There may be room for a society to aid in maintaining the supremacy of the white race, but it is not through blazing crosses, white-draped and masked riders and threats of mysterious reprisals that the supremacy of any race can be maintained or advanced. Quite A Contrast In Justice What looks to us like a stra- called to our attention a few day two convictions of first degree re- vieled. One of the robbing a man of $40. He tentatively. The Negro was convic- tion. He was sentenced to serve a 10 yea- r. A statement of the case as re- vieled. Two highwaymen were con- victed in the Circuit court yesterday. "James Regan of 1821 So- vence in Judge Landwehr's copi- s of the Steamer J. M. at Sec- hting him on the head with a re- gan admitted that on Feb. 25, 190 ruled weapon and was fined $10. "Will Ester, a Negro, of 22 years by a jury in Judge Hartin help up the restaurant of Toune last November and obtained $10 was indicted with Ester on the not yet been tried." A case like this raises one with the administration of justi- of whether a jury composed of a Negro charged with an offence with the same offense? Second the bench?

He was sentenced to Syracuse was convicted of a drugstore to serve a 10-year term in the prison of the case as reported in the daily press. Paymen were convicted of first-degree court yesterday and were sentenced to the man of 1821 South Broadway was judge Landwehr's court, for holding up O. O. J.

He an restaurant of Toney Agnes, 608 South and obtained $10. William Tally, and Ester out the same charge, took a bid." This raises one or two important points of justice in our courts. Fry composed of all white men will deal with an offense as they would a defense? Second what charge did the man read the above statement in the light, without feeling that something is wrong: The Negro gets ten years dollar robbery; the white man gets five hundred ($300.00) dollars. Q What looks to us like a strange case of administering justice was called to our attention a few days ago through a newspaper report of two convictions of first-degree robbery in the Circuit Court, here last week. One of the defendants was a white man, who was convicted of robbing a man of $340. He was sentenced to 5-years in the penitentiary. The Negro was convicted of a drugstore robbery of $10. He was sentenced to serve a 10-year term in the penitentiary. A case like this raises one or two important points in connection with the administration of justice in our courts. First, the question of whether a jury composed of all white men will deal as justly with a Negro charged with an offense as they would a white man charged with the same offense? Second what charge did the jury receive from the bench? No one can read the above statement in the light of facts given in the news item, without feeling that something is wrong with justice. The case summarized: The Negro gets ten years for taking part in a test (10.00) dollar robbery; the white man gets five years for robbing a man of three hundred ($300.00) dollars. Quite a contrast in justice. BIRTHS RECORDED # GIRLS N. & M. Thompson, 4200 N. Mainte C. & M. Thompson, 3022 W. Bainte H. & L. Attorberry, 2845 Morga W. & N. Johnson, 3403 Walnut. O. & C.
