WHY IS BOS.KV DANIELS
KEPT IN PRISON?
To the Editor of The Georgian
In 1891. fifteen year* and more ago,
Holey waa tried In Sumter county
< inirged with having killed Hamp
Swain*. another negro, the occualon
being a general Quarrel over a game
,.f curds; possibly there was the addl-
tlon of bad wtdsky, but certain It Is
there waa no premeditation, no con-
sptracy, only a wild scramble resulting
in the death of one participant.
John Green, another negro now aerv.
log a life aantence. awore that Holey
did the killing. Boley strenuously de
nies and affirms Innocence; In all the
long years he h*s never Swerved from
min statement.
The jury rendered verdict, “Guilty of
murder In the second degree," and
• ■-commended him to mercy. He waa
riven a life eenlenoe
For more than fifteen years Holey
lots served the state, denying guilt, but
never In any way violating the rules.
Hint winning the respect and esteem of
nil hla keepers. These Join tn his pe
tition for pardon and release, know-
tog that the long confinement has ■«•
nously Impaired hla health and unless
1 -leased he will die In prison. It would
have been more merciful to have hang
ed hlin long ago.
* My several appeata made before the
t.irtlon board have been Ineffectual and
>ve are about where we begun ala
umntha ago.
Yet there Is not one valid reason
«hy thla pardon ahould not Issue and
t to* victim of possible perjury be per
mitted to go home to the old mother
who longs for hla return. Bbe la 75
Tears old and can not live much longer.
The legal doubt of Boley's guilt Is
umiuestloned. It salats and la aa real
m< any other feature of the trial. Now
i.v what moral right can we hold thla
man longer In custody? What reason
■ ttlstu why he should fall to get free?
chaplain Vaughan vouches for his
good character and affirms that Boley
has no place In the convict camp. Ills
dace la outside where he will do good
service In effort to Improve hie race.
He lias learned much In the achool of
adversity and Is a higher and better
type of his race than la usual outside
Hie prison.
The members of (he pardon board
are aa Individuate moat worthy and
g.aai men. but In their corporate ca
pacity they do not fulfil their mission,
and there Is need for change ami reor-
K.mlsatlon.
Boley appeals to the outside world
f**r sympathy and clemency. Hitherto
tic has received only “Inclemency" and
•Hat In rich profusion.
During my boyhood one of our neigh
bors, a worthy man. waa called upon
at^ a religious meeting to make the
opening prayer. He began somewhat
haltlnaty: •'w* thank Thee, Lord; that
we are utrmlUOd Ul IVI tw this place
where the gospel is dispensed with."
It may not be Oulu fair to my friends
of the board, but ae I made my appeal

prove, I thought of the Incident and

nnd women who will not silently ac

mi aroused public sentiment which

result of neglect rather than from any

The editorial page of The New York

a score of personal references. At least
three-fourths of them are couched In
terms of ridicule, satire, contempt, sar
casm or other down-looking aspect, the
remarks varying from mild ridicule to
savage sneers, apparently animated by
bitter malevolence. Among those who
fall under the disfavor of this chronic
and peevish growler are President

SENA7 OR CARMACK
To the Editor of The Georgian!
No one understands tb* negro race
better than BenatAr Carmack, aa the
following from hi* recent speech oa
the Brownsville affair (not affray)
shows:
"YeLther* la no man In thla country
today, hot ovan the senator from Bouth
Carolina, who Is so universally and so
bitterly haled by the negroes as the.
man who abolished the rndlanola post-
office end dined with Booker Washing-
tonr Attibrnrite has don* forthe ne
gro. ell the evidences of friendship he
haa shown In (he past, have been ut
terly forgotten simply because he has
not shown that sympathy with the
criminal negro which pervade* the ne
gro population tn this country, from
one end of It to the other.”
The negro race Is In sympathy with
lls criminals. Thla sentiment pervades
the negro population of this country,
North and South. It la a peculiar trait
of the negro race. It is a definite
characteristic that Stamps diem wher
ever found. It la an African trait of
character. And thla distinctive trait
explains the sudden mutiny of Ih*
TOSS against President Roosevelt.
Senator' Foraker wall understands
thla faature of tb* negro's make-up.
thla peculiar trait, and h* hastens to
utilise It In the plan to overthrow
Roosevelt's Influence with his party,
and to forward his own chances fur
the presidency.
Foraker ellll talk* ae a bloody-shlrter.
Benatdr Carmack'* portrait of him Is
aa true *a was Tom Norwood's de
scription of the carpet-bagger As
Carmack says. Foraker would sever
the neck of the South at on* Mow.
And her* la where Tillman has com
milted the unpardonable sin. He '
elding and. abattlng PorekrF* plan
ths - presidency Foraker has
won the solid vote nf nlggerdom by
his'policy of protecting the criminals
of the negro race. And Senator Till
man Is a party to the Foraker scheme,
not to hid* negro erlinr. but to help
Foraker'* ambition to solidify the n»
gro vote for hla nomination. We d,
not want Forakar. Jtr la still of (he
bloody shirt variety, lie despises such
sentiment" a. Charles Francis Adams
uttered at Lsxlagibn. nu . on the 19th*
Lee'* centenary. By the way. that
speech reached the moral sublime,
stamp* lls author aa n great man.
It la alao a matter nf regret that
Benator Spooner, while roasting Till
man for hla views on lynching, failed
to uttar any censure at all on negroes
for the crime \>f rape.
Northern editors and orators, de
nounclng lynching so strongly and
allsnt In ciitewn of ihe negro for
crime produatof lynching, hove led the
negro to the faun conclusion that rape
of a white woman nf the Bouth Is
pleasing to the North, ahd the only
horror Ta tn the lynching of the rapist.
Northern speakers and writer, have
misled the negro,
Hence, Senator ^ponner'a threat 'at
Tillman did not roach the negro a', all.
But .Carmack's description of Fora
ker will stick like the shirt of Neasus.
Tha carpet-bagger could not aurvlvs
Norwood's ridicule; It drove him from
the South, sad no one will ever recall
Foraker without laughing at him fur

GREAT PILGRIMS OF PEACE
To the Editor of The Georgian:
I noticed on editorial tn your valu
able Journal of January IS, entitled
"Great Pilgrims of Peace." In which
you comment un Ihe auggeetlon of the
English Journnll-t, W. T. Stead, who
wants a great peace pilgrimage of nota-
Me men and women around the world
thu* elding prophecy, ec you clelm. In
bringing about u universal peace In the
world.
Now, I beg to take Issue with y
this point. I admit thnt the drift of
public opinion In In tho direction you
Indicate and to entertain different Ideal
in unpopular: II ha* ever been a herd
and ungrateful lot to swim against tha
tide. There le empl* plain acripture.-i
oa well *a physical, practical evidence
to show that this world Is not to enjoy
a great unlveraal peace, but on tlie
contrary li to be Involved In ware upon
top of war* until the culmination of
that gnat uhlvemi war of Armaged
don. —
Th* horiion of thla eventful period li
already la ha seen In Ihe distance. I
think I ean produce a "thu* salih the
Lord" for thl* end much more, and 1
feel that It is spiritually criminal to
see ouch erroneous Ideas prevailing and
not nlae a warring voice.
