FEELING STIRRED BY THE ENGLISH
INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.
Condition of the Blacks Today—A Crime
That Boases the Fury of Men of Every
1 Race—Ida It Wells and the Duty of Ne¬
groes Themselves.
j i Atlanta, [Special Sept Correspondence.) 20.—And the ten¬
bo
der hearted English am to investigate
Uhl Well, we can sfcyid it We have
been investigated in turn by Bntler,
Sheridan, two Shermans, Blair and so
on down to little Billy Chandler, and
if we can stand all that, great Scott!
what can’t we stand? To say that most
of onr folks are redhot over this truly
English performance would be drawing
it mild, bat a minority—and I am in
and out of it—look on it as a huge
joke, an appropriate close .for a season
which opened with Coxey’s march on
Washington. Ordinary impudence an¬
noys, but such colossal cheek as this has
in it an element of the sublime And
there is one good thing to be said for
these Englishmen—they are not trying
to make votes.
I have made seven tours in the sonth
and changed my mind on some point
after each tour, and am therefore dis¬
posed to be charitable
My first experience after the war was
in Texas in 1873. Coming fresh from a
rather radical northern community, I
expected freedom to do everything for
the blacks and do it quickly. Irritated by
their dawdling incompetence, I reacted
to the other extrema I tried tho negro
by the northern white man’s standard
and pronounced him incapable of prog-
IDA B. WELLS.
resa Set this down as the northern
man’s first mistake on coming south.
They nearly all make it My next view
was in South Carolina in the campaign
of 1876, and there I was almost per¬
suaded that if the whites did not exter¬
minate thorn they would soon bo eating
each other. In Mississippi in 1877 and
Louisiana In 18791 inclined to the their
prevalent theory that the race tended to
die out. The census of 1880 knocked all
that nonsense out of us, and we took a
fresh start.
Three C<raclu*ive Fact#.
Three long tours through the black
belt have since convinced me of at least
three facts. First, the progress of the
blaoks in any section depends chief¬
ly on the progress of the whites in. that
section. Take this beautiful and pros¬
perous city as an example. A little over
60 years ago it was not marked on the
map. Since 1860ithasdonbled in popu¬
lation each decade and far more than
doubled its wealth and business. It has
therefore about the finest colored popu¬
lation in the south. The English com¬
mitteemen can see their well organized
colleges, their flue churches, their ele¬
gant high school and other public build¬
ings. They will be welcomed by many
refined and intelligent colored people.
They will be handsomely entertained at
the homes of bishops, doctors of divinity,
learned professors and fairly well to do
business and professional tm«t all col¬
ored, but they will find another class of
blacks which is a menace to the peace
of any community.
Where white progress has been
greatest colored progress has been great¬
est Where the whites have been slow
or stationary the blacks have also, and
if there be a place in the sonth where
the whites have retrograded I think yon
will find that the negroes have moved
back and kept ‘ ‘company distance. ”
The second fact of importance is
that the colored rade is rapidly divid¬
ing into classes as clearly marked as
the Four Hundred and the ragged Reu¬
bens in New York, And this is one of
the surest signs of increasing civiliza¬
tion. There is a small class gaining
rapidly, a much larger class gaining
slowly and another stationary or retro¬
grading. It must not be forgotten that
the imported negroes were from many
different regions. One authority says
143 tribes were represented, the intel¬
lectual range as great as from the Cau¬
casian of Boston to the “greaser” of
Mexico.
The third fact of importance is
that the two races are getting farther
apart, and that right rapidly. The good
of each race respect each other, but
have no wish for closer association, and,
as for the bad, one fact tells it all—mis¬
cegenation has almost entirely ceased.
A Cue In Point.
Standards of right and propriety dif¬
fer amazingly, but there is one offense
which rouses to fiercest fury the men of
every race from the Caucasian to the
Piute—violence to its women, especial¬
ly to little girls. In the presence of a
victim the most enlightened community
goes insane. In 1876 I was in southern
Ohio when the corpse of a lady (her
lame was Bennett, I think) was found
in the woods, murdered by a tramp.
He was dragged through the streets,
with the best men and women in the
jdtizen, place crying for vengeance. A leading
an aged Christian, who had
never been bftard to utter an oath, was
asked to address tbe mob for law and
order. He began, broke down in tears
and fairly screamed, “Boys, go hang
the d----- -d-!” And they did hang
him, the good men assisting, the good
women appending. The popular rage
at the south is tenfold fiercer because
the danger is tenfold greater. In a
thickly settled and thoroughly policed
country like England that crime is al¬
most an Impossibility. The south is all
frontier. Save in a very few localities
the population is sparse. Women and
schoolgirls must often go long distances
on lonely roads- The temptation to the
ly lawless is gxgat. Tbe retriba-
gwift, certain and terrible,
negro Is most unfortu-
brought
not been time f6r the Internal to change
in harmony with tho external. Scien¬
tifically speaking, the organism has not
developed to fit the environment Tho
negro is subjected to 600 times os much
temptation as in Africa and has not
acquired five times the power of moral
resistance. The result is much tbe same
as it would be with a lot of wild cattle
gathered at random from tho plains and
mountains and put under the restraints
of a well ordered stock farm. It has
taken 1,200 years of select breeding to
produce the mild eyed and gentle Jer¬
sey, yet every stockman knows that
when the sex instinct is roused the wild
nature is apt to break out and tbo Jer¬
sey to become as dangerous as a wild
Northumbrian.
A Needed Remedy.
There is, however, a remedy, and it
is high time to apply it Tho negroes
themselves should organize more thor¬
oughly ahd mark tbe bad men of their
race. The whites must realize that
every lynching has a reactive effect on
the nature of citizens—a hardening, de¬
moralizing effect Most important of
all, there is a ebanoo that an innocent
man may suffer, and though the chance
be but one in a thousand that is enough
to condemu the whole system.
Miss Ida B. Wells has achieved a re¬
markable success—of the kind. It is
evident at a glance-that her view is al¬
together presumed and one sided, and
many of the statements she makes oan-
not in the very nature of things be true.
Nevertheless there is an evil, and it
should be cured, nor shonft tho absurd
exaggerations of reformers binder it
And, as to our English friends, let them
come, and welcome. They are sure to see
ten times an much good as evil, and tho
more they see of us the better they will
like us. They will find nine-tenths of
this southern country as open to the
rambler as their own settlements in new
countries are and much the same sort
of people. They will be sneered at a lit¬
tle and laughed at a good deal, but their
own cottntrymeu already settled here
will tell them many things they did nob
know, and after hearing it they will
think bettor of us. • «

CRANK INVENTORS.
New Ideas For Liquor Flask-, Pulpita sad
Steam Enginea.
[Special Correspondence.)
Buffalo, Sept. 20.—If you want to
hear good stories, you will do well to
get into the company of an accomplish¬
ed patent promoter.
“One of the most interesting cranks
I’ve met in a loDg time, ” said one of
them to me the other day, “was a chap
with a scheme for a church which be
thought would be a treasure to indolent
preachers. The pnlpit was to be in the
center, and the pews were to be in cir¬
cles extending clear around the speak¬
er's stand, rising at tbe back as the tiers
of seats rise in a theater. The pnlpit
was to be stationary, bnt the pews were
to rest on rollers, running on circular
tracks. By the use of an electric motor
the seats were to be kept in constant,
gentle motion, and in that way the
gallon in service without once having
to turn around. 1 don't remember
whether the device had yet l>eon patent
ed or not, but I had a great time getting
rid of the. fellow. ”
“His scheme,” said the second of my
promoter friends, “reminds me of the
plan that has actually been adopted in
jailbuilding somewhere in the west.
The cells are in tiers ui a great cylinder
of boiler iron. This sands on end in
side a cylindrical structure of masonry
and is kept slowly moving, while tbe
outer stone walls, of oourse, remain
still. Before this jail was built there
were many escapes from the sheriff's
custody, but not afterward. The most
persistent chop I hare met was a fellow
who wanted to save a lot of money to
liquor bottlers. He proposed to get up a
bottle that could not be used a second
time. Inside the flask he was to havo
some sort of a movable float which the
minute the last drop of liquor was pour
ed out would fly up and act as a stopper
Until ;it was removed nothing more
conld be poured in, and the only way to
remove it was to break the bottle. ”
“I knew an inventor,” said the third
man. “who, inspired, I suppose, by see¬
ing a gas engine at work, proposed to
use gunpowder in the cylinders of en
gines for ocean steamers. He had a
mode) of his contrivance, too, bnt it
was of wood, and he even tried to work
it, of course. His machine was .to au¬
tomatically deposit, say, a quarter of an
ounce of powder behind the piston at
every stroke. It was to be exploded by
electricity, and the resulting gases, he
held, would furnish ample force to move
an engine of great horsepower. I told
him I wouldn’t take the invention np
because I was afraid that some day a
spark from the explosions in the cylinder
would reach the main powder magazine,
and then there would be force enough
to smash tiie entire craft The fellow
got very angry at me and would never
speak to me again. Bnt I didn’t mind ."
Then the talk drifted to the subject
of good lnck in touching cripples on
the street and the bad luck that inheres
in the number 18, but as tbe state¬
ments made were not substantiated by
affidavits it would be injudicious to re¬
peat them here M. L Dexter.
