The front page of the Chicago Inter
Ocean of Hay 28 Is occupied b{ a car
toon from the pencil of Thomas Xast,
that represents Justice, drawn to her
full, majestio height, and with scorn
and Indignation on her face, arresting
the lynching of a Negro by a mob of
flerne-looking white men, armed to
the teeth. Crouohing behind her and
looking to her for protection are a
group of frightened Negroes. At the
head of the cartoon are these words t
“Our Republic can only exist so long
as Its citizens respect and obey their
self-imposed laws.” Accompanying
the cartoon Is an editorial headed
“The Crime Against a Race,” from
whloh the following clippings are
made:
The lynching, and llie murder, of ilia colured
men by their white brethren In the South for
the last six month, may Iw called a carnival of
blood. Iai has lieen outraged and Justice
cruciffed in thodctermineil efforts of men who
neither know the one no. care for tlm other, to
vent their mnllco against an n|,pre«.cd and
downtrodden race.
It seems too bad that the old ques
tion between the two sections of the
country cannot be left to rest In peace.
Southerners are tired of the continued
yawp of some politicians who stir up
III feelings for political purposes. If
men, whose “hearts go out In compas
sion to the poor, downtrodden Negro”
of the South, would Inform themselves
on the true state of affairs, and then
speak frankly the truth, uncolored by
political designs nr maudlin senti
ment, there would then be nothing In
their speech or writing to arouse tile
Indignation of the better class of
Southern people.
But such utterances as the above
and the following tend, not only to
make worse the sore feeling that
every one must have who has fought
for and lost a cause that Is dear to his
heart, and that he believes Is a right*
eous one, but it will arouse an intense,
righteous Indignation In the breast of
every man who has the welfare of
Ills country at heart, and whose own
particular seotlon suffers under a pe
culiar Btate of affairs that all strive to
better.
Did the writer of that editorial live
in a country that numbered live Ne
groes to one white man, and where it
Is unsafe for a lady to go driving
alone for more than a mile or two be
yond the limits of the town, or to be
alone on any of the streets at night,
he would not hesitate, himself, to
bring retribution, swift and sure,
upon the wretch who dared oommit an
orlme that death Is too mild a punish
ment for.
Did he have any comprehension of
the Negro eharaoter, he would know
that tho fear of Imprisonment or the
chain gang will not restrain him from,
committing orlme. And, too, to im
prison a Negro for crime, to await a
sentence to be hauged from a Judge,
and then to hang him after due delib
eration, means, in many sections of
the South, an uprising of the Negroes
and a calling out of State troops to
preserve the peace.
No, tho knowledge that Judgment
will be visited upon him certain and
swift by an Indignant community, un
fortunately, seems to be the only thing
that serves to restrain the Negro ohar-
notcr and to make It possible for white
people to live among them.
But enough of that. The following
Is tho unklndest, most unjust senti
ment, putting It mildly, that has for
years appeared In a Northern paper
Tho |miml iiluntov ami all hi. tribe, humill
alad at defeat,,', tho battlefield and , riot,a over
tho luaws tho war and Lincoln', iiroclnnintlon

poicfc. Under such condition, as tho war left
tho South Immediate peace tva. liuptNulble.
The Southern planter was never “fu
rious over losses” the war brought on
He accepted hU defeat ns Inevitable,
came home and went manfully to
work to bring out of the ohoatlc state
of affairs a new regime upon a differ
ent basis. What he has accomplished
speaks for Itself in the present pro
gressive state of his country.
The Negro was never an object on
whloh the Southerner vented his
spleen. There is no class of people
who so well understand the Negro
character, who do so inuoh for him,
and rejoice in whatever progress he
makes, as the people among whom he
lives. Is It not absurd to accuse any
class of people living in a civilized
country and a Christian era, of hunt
ing down and generally maltreating
another race of people among whom
they have lived for generations! 1
There Is progression and peace both
In the South—peace, except when some
Ignoramus, some designing politician,
or fanatio imbued with a missionary
spirit, makes such utterances as found
In that editorial, that stirs up
righteous, burning indignation in the
breast of every one who rends. The
Northerner need fear no serious dis
turbance between the Southern white
man and Negro, but if he longs for
peaceful intercourse betweeu the two
sections of country as warmly as does
the Southerner, let him* abstain from
such atrociously untrue and unjust
statements as made in that editor
iai.

last long in one of our Reclining

you to rivet your eyes on the price,
because it will probably make you
stare: $6.50. There isn’t any su'A
