THE SEQUAELAE-LYNCHING
THE LYNCHERS.
Sequelae is a term used by physicians to denote the effects which usually follow certain diseases—permanent results which remain after the diseases themselves are conquered. For instance, some diseases result in blindness. The term, however, may be used to denote other effects than those that result from disease, and it will be so used in this article. The object of the article is to call attention to the fact that the outrages of the night-riders are the natural result, or sequelae, of the lynchings of the Afro-Americans which have occurred in the South.
The main argument by which the lynchings were justified was that they were absolutely necessary for the protection of white women from the assaults of "burly" Negroes; and thus the press defended them and the pulpit made but little, if any protest. The APPEAL always made the contention and attempted to show that if lynching were justified by public sentiment in the case of an assault upon white woman by a degenerate Afro-American, it would not be long

before it would be extended to other cases and other races. Everybody now knows that the contention has proved to be absolutely correct.
ness of roast pig by burning his fath er's house and burning the burgis which dwelt therein. The tidings flew, and in a short time all the houses, now
The exploits of the Kentucky night-riders added force to the argument and those of their Tennessee brethren have rendered it absolutely conclusive. These knights sans peur at sans reproche, have learned from the writings of Rev. Tom Dixon what a noble part their ancestors, the Clansmen, of Kukluk Klan, took in the promotion of civilization by invading hog pens and raiding chicken-coops, during the gloomy period of reconstruction, have even "bettered the instructions" of their Mentor, by first committing outrages in general, then defying authority of the State, and finally threatening the Governor with the penalty of assassination should he dare to interfere with their program. Like Mr. Bryan, the leader of their political party, they are demanding that the people shall rule—vox populi, vox del. But Governor Patterson seems to be very obtuse and even perverse in the matter; for he has ordered the militia to invade the sacred precincts of Reel-foot lake, and, moreover, ordered the muskets to be loaded with ball cartridges. Now, the APPEAL is not greatly delighted by the thought that its predictions have been verified, it takes no special pleasure in saying: "I told you so"; but it will be delighted if the result will be that a firm conviction shall be fastened upon the mind of every citizen that it is equally dangerous to all to tolerate any form of lawlessness toward any. Such a conviction would put an end to the lynching of Afro-Americans as well as those of a different race, Chinese, Japanese and Caucasians. It may be well, also, to call the attention of Messieurs les Lynchers to the fact that defiance of civil authority simply leads to the substitution of military government in its stead. We are afraid that Rev. Dixon has not paid any special attention to that fact.
The night-riders, as the lineal successors of the Kuklux and the lynchers, are having things their own way, not only in Kentucky, but in several other Southern States. The APPEAL again calls attention to the fact that the fundamental propositions upon which their operations are based is identical with that advocated by such men as Senator Tillman and Rev. Tom Dixon—that they are not necessary in order to reach and correct evils for which the law affords no remedy. But the trouble in the case is that the remedy is worse than the disease. Charles Lamb relates that a Chinese boy discovered the delicious

Says There Will Be Real Revision of the Tariff at the Special Session of Congress.
"There will be a real revision of the tariff at the special session of Congress to be called for the purpose," said Senator Culom of Illinois, as he left the White House executive offices Tuesday morning, after a brief chat with the President. Senator Culom expressed more optimism than most republicans who have perambulated this way of late. He thought that if, in the coming regular session, the committee charged with the work of preparing the schedules for submission to the two branches of the national legislature are on the job from start to finish the special session need not last more than two months. The Dingley bill was disposed of at a special session by July 27 and most of that time was consumed by the Senate. Senator Culom thinks there's no need to spend that much time in the work this time.
ness of roast pig by burning his father's house and burning the pigs which dwelt therein. The tidings flew, and, in a short time, all the houses were burnt down by the tenants in their greediness for the new delicacy. But, after a few centuries, some brilliant genius demonstrated that it was possible to roast a pig without burning down a house to do so. The APPEAL hopes that some such philosopher will arise among our Southern brethren.
In a state where there is a large Afro-American population, two firey white Southerners enter upon a duel to the death. One is instantly killed. The dead man's life work was devising ways and means to humiliate and degrade his brother in black. No tears gather in black men's eyes. Instead of the characteristic sympathy with which the bosom of the Afro-American is ever filled for those who treat them fairly, this dead man is suddenly called before a just, an avenging God, a God who is no respector of persons, with all his sins upon his soul unwept, unhonored and unsung by his brother in black.
Under the fostering care of her guarantee law, new banks are springing up like mushrooms all over Oklahoma. It has been decided that a charter cannot be refused to any so-called bank that complies with the legal requirements, so that every little settlement can have as many banks as inhabitants, if it so desired. Moreover, these little wild-cat institutions are offering to pay six per cent premium upon deposits, which no solvent bank will or can do. The result will be a smash-up, of course.
The reign of lawlessness in the South continues without abatement. Twenty prominent men were recently arrested in Arkansas for going to the home of a prominent planter and compelling him to give up some hogs and logs. Two of those accused were preachers. Our Southern friends will soon learn that it does not pay to tolerate lawlessness, no matter what class may be the victims. It will be of great benefit to them to have that principle firmly implanted in their minds.

our colored children in the country districts where from 80 to 85 per cent of our people live. In a recent trip through the state of Maryland I was surprised to find, for example, that there were rural communities almost the slight of the dome of the Capitol of the city where the public schools for our race are only open from two to two and one-half months during the year.
Taking the Southern States as a whole, it is safe to say that the country schools are not in session at present longer than four or five months out of the twelve. When we add to this condition, in most cases, poor schoolhouses or no schoolhouses, little apparatus and poorly paid teachers, it is clear that this is a condition demanding the immediate and constant attention of parents, ministers, teachers and leaders of every description. The facilities for public school education in the cities and larger towns are used for the most part, but I know of countries like Afro-American teachers are paid out more than $15 per month, and out of this they board themselves. This means practically no school, for a teacher worth more cannot live on such a wage.
In order to impress our people with the truth of how far we are behind and with what remains to be done, let me make a comparison: Two years ago each child in the state of Massachusetts had spent upon him as per school population, in the free public schools $26.42, while taking the South as a whole for the same year each Afro-American child had spent upon him as per school population from 50 cents to $1.50 in the different Southern States. At such rate, does any one believe that we can educate our children? Ignorance will grow denser, and crime, lawlessness and inefficiency will increase. Something must be done and that speedily.
What is the remedy? Let parents and leaders get into close and sympathetic, touch with the local and county and state officials and make known the condition and the needs of the children. If one effort does succeed, make another and another, yourselves, must make your wants known in form or will do it for you. We must in fact serve and yet polite manner insist upon our proper share of the public school funds.
DR. BOOKER T.
The Famous Educator Who Makes A
Sou
Parents must bear in mind that if they get all the public school fund that is justly due their children, this alone will not provide for the education of their children. Even the white children in the South are not receiving enough money to properly educate them from the public fund. In some way each community must organize to take and keep taxing itself until each community good schoolhouse and a school term lasting from six to eight months in each year, taught by qualified teachers.
I speak to our people now on this subject that they may begin organizing and that they may raise money this fall while our people have it. Now is the time to act. Do not delay another day. This is the season of the year when our people are handling considerable cash as a result of the sale of their crops. This is also the season of the year when they are tempted to throw away thousands of dollars in unwise directions. I urge you to be some of the money this fall that you have thrown away in providing for the proper education your children. We must, as soon learn to make sacrifices, it is better that we go without proper clothing that we go hungry, live on bread and water even if necessary, rather than neglect the education of our children. Let each person, teacher or minister, who reads these words, begin at once and stir the people to action in his immediate county.

To Cough Properly.
Few people know how to cough properly. It never occurs to the ordinary individual that there is a right way and a wrong way of doing it. Yet it is a matter of no small importance.
If every sigh means a drop of blood out of the heart, as people say, every cough means some greater or less proportion of time knocked off one's life.
Most people cough as loudly and forcibly as they can. But it is rather costly noise, for the single reason that it tears and inflames the lungs. The lungs consist of an extraordinarily delicate sponge-like tissue, which sometimes gets inflamed and choked with phlegm. When we try to get rid of this substance we cough. But obviously, if we remove it violently, we must necessarily injure the delicate lung tissue. Therefore, train yourself to cough as gently as possible.
Belich of Marie Antoinette
A most interesting presentation has been made to the town of Paris by a certain Mme. Blavet. It consists of the furniture which was used by the royal family during its imprisonment in the Temple. Among the items are included the bed of the Princess Elizabeth, the quilt which was used by Marle Antoinne, and a box of toys of the little dauphin. Chairs, tables and books are also included, and, finally, the locksmith's instruments with which the unhappy king passed his time while awaiting execution. The entire collection will be lodged in the Musee Carnavalet.-Dundee Advertiser.

The Bore Returns
Midnight came and still the bore remained.
"Do you like music?" asked the beautiful girl, just to break the monotony.
"Passionately fond of it," replied the bore. In fact, music will always carry me away.
She rushed over to the piano and played several popular airs.
"You are still here," she said, turning on the stool.
"Yes," yawned the bore.
"But I thought you said music always carried you away?"
"So I did—music!"
A Russian's 35,000 Sheep Dogs.
"What do you think of a man who owns 35,000 sheep dogs?" asked a Russian.
"Impossible."
"No, no. The man I refer to is Gustav Jovanovitch, the Russian mutton king. Jovanovitch's sheep whiten the Siberian plains for hundreds of square miles. They number 1,750,000, and 35,000 dogs after them. You talk of your mammoth American business enterprises, but have you anything to compare with one employing 35,000 dogs?"
Retort Courtcous.
The late Senator Hoar of Massachusetts was one of the most benevolent looking old gentlemen who ever sat in congress, but he said pretty nasty things now and then in debate. "Why," he exclaimed one day, "no man in Vermont is allowed to vote unless he has beaten Massachusetts people out of $5,000 trading horses." "And we all vote," bellowed Senator Proctor of Vermont
Poet's Family Needy

INFLUENCE OF THE MULLAHS.
No One Dares Lay Sacriigious Finger Upon Their Laytiny Persons. Ever since the beginning of the now constant troubles in India a good deal has been heard about the mullahs. a mullah, or, as it is more properly written, mollah, is a title given in India and throughout the East generally to a religious leader of any description. Thus the sultan of Turkey is a mollah, because he is the supreme head of the Moslem world. The hostile Sqailn leader who caused as so much anxiety between 1901 and 1906, and whose name occasionally crops up even now in the daily papers, was also a mollah. And there are hundreds of others. To most of the more conspicuous among them we prefix the adjective "mad." This, however, must not be taken to mean that they are insane, the word being used rather in its Oriental signification of "inspired."
The influence wielded by the mollahs who are now stirring up against us the border tribes of Afghanistan is enormous. Clu<sup>a</sup> in their sacred robes, bearing aloft the green standard of Islam, they go up and down the valleys shrilling the Mohammedan war cry, and woe to be to him who refuses to heed.
The person of the mollah is sacred. True, the Amir the other day was reported to have ordered that any of them caught preaching the jehad (holy war) should have their tongues torn out. But if he really issued such an order it is extremely doubtful—it means, meant for European ears. Not even the majority of lamb himself would care to lay a sacrilegious finger on one of these辛烈 personages. If he wore to venture such an unheard of thing vengeance would surely overtake him. For it is the cardinal principle of the Ulma—as the mollahs are collectively termed—that an injury purposely caused to one of their number can only be atoned for by the death of the individual inflicting it.
Boissier's High Priced Autograph.
A good Boissier-Renan anecdote is told by a continental contemporary. One day Boissier arrived at Renan's home with a beaming face, saying, "Now I'll tell you a piece of news that will humiliate you. My autograph has fetched a higher price than yours." "That does not surprise me," Renan said serenely. "And where did you think this time, then turned out that at an auction Renan autograph had been sold for three frances and Boissier for five." "Well," Renan wont on. "now let you tell you the reason. There were three faults in the spelling of your letter, which is now lying here on my writing table. A friend of mine was at the auction and made a higher bid for the letter, after noticing the artificial gem that adorned your prose. He brought it to me in order that I might return it to you, instead of reaching for the gem. The pressure of the accomplishments of members of the French Academy."
Also the Locomotive Spark.
In the Far West ten thousand acres, containing valuable timber, were set on fire by a lighted match, carelessly tossed aside by a casual traveler. In the enlightened jurisprudence of the days to come the careless tossing away of fire, however small the combustible, will be accounted among the fires to be burned by the law. There is entirely too much costly carelessness in the disposal of lighted matches and of cigar and cigarette butts.
California's Big Apricot Crop.
With trees bending under the burden of the heaviest crop in years—perhaps the greatest in the history of the state—the harvest of apricots in California is at its height.
It is estimated that the green crop will total 120,000 tons and that the return to growers will be $1,250,000. It is also important to appalling. Because of rapidity of ripening possibly 10 per cent of the crop will not be gathered. The fruit is exceptionally huscusic.
Bad Gin.
Mrs, Podunk—I dew think it's out-rageous to send cur fleet over to Japan.
Mr. Podunk—Oh, 'shaw, ma! it's jest on a friendly visit. Why is it out-rageous?
Mrs. Podunk—Why, they sailors will be full on them Japanese jinrikshas the hull time.—Judge.
