FACTS ABOUT LMHINGS Stevenson Lays Bare Empty Hypocrisy ol the Republicans. FEDERAL INTERFERENCE4WNECESSARY , M?I? ' fc* Savage Barbarity of Mob Violence Had its Origin in the North, and Ihe South it Daino More Than Any Other Bee tion to Wipe it Out. i-Correspondence The YotttriHe E.iqulror One of. the beet short speeches made in the house against passage of the .Antil-lynching bill according to soihe Of those who have closely followed the f'" scussion from day to day was that of eprcsentative W. F. Stevenson, of ?he . fth South Carolina' district. Mr. ^Stevenson said -to begin with that ^he cruelty of burning persons ailre did 4pot originate wltli the lynchers but ?Was first auyiorixed and carried out b^y ^he states of the North, which had sold the negfo slaves to the South. As . ,yroof of this fact he eked the record ?of the caad of a negro who was burned ^(lalive by the order of a oourt of the fl&te of New York , in 1712. It was In the North and not in the South that jhe burning of negroes alive by law oeL *&n. v Ov When the South purchased the negro slaves from the North it xpadtfled the Jqw so that when the pivii War come there was only one crime iq any Southern state for which a negro could he burned alive and that was for the iqqrder of his master and in most of the Southern states that form of punishment ftad been abolished altogether. Mr. Stevenson in answer to a question from Representative Bird of Kansas, did he wish to perpetuate lynching, declared that South Carolina is doing more to stamp out this crime than Vnnoflji Is Hnlnsr How did lynching originate? The first lynching on record in South Carjo-r lina, he said, was the shooting to death of a one armed Confederate soldier( Matt Stevens, by a company of 14(1 negro militiamen belonging to the Carpet Bag government of the state in 1871. Stevens driving a wagon loaded with \yhfsky was met on the highway , ,.by, these armed negroes who demanded tjie whisky. He resisted and wan *%ynched but the anti-lynchlng bill in the house would not touch that case .^for Stevens was not accused of a crime nor was he takon from the cus' fdby, of officers. Bat ttoeja and there was called forth the deepest curse, which we are strug gllng to overcome. The white people '"'of the?community rose up, disarmed rjthose negroes and put them In Jail. The Carpet Bag government at once under^ took ,to release them. The white people then looked into the matter and hung; those they deemed guilty and llboratsd^thei others. ; Ever sinoe that day Hue people of South Carolina, declared Mr. Steven - son, have been 'fighting the crime of lynching. Wha?- haa been the outcome ?rt "Let me," said he, "give you f 25 yeaxB of history, so that y6u will see whether you are any better under the | Federal statute." From 1894f to 1898, five years, there were 36 lynchlngs in . the state. From 1899 ?to 1903 there . , were 19 lynchinga From 1904 to" 1908 there were 15 lynchlngs. From 1909 to f 1913 there Were 14 lynching*. - FrOm 1914 to 1918 there were 8 lynoWn^s and I in the year 1919 there were only two lynchlngs. Judging by this steady decrease In the number of lynchlngs, Mr. Steven? son asked the house if it could say that South Carolina is not trying to maintain the dignity of the law and protect the man accused of a crime. On the other hand he pointed to the lr raeo riots that have occurred in the n1*st five years In- New York, Springfield, 111., East St. Louis, Chicago and v\Washington. He said more people had r been killed in these riots than had been .-lynched In South Carolina in the last 15 years, yet none of these riots came within the terras of this bill and what Is more such bloody riots do nqt occur in the South. He said if the bin became a law it ''could imprison the governor of t\ state for bis failure to protect a prisoner. The police officers of every city, town aqd hamlet in the country would be ;liablo to arrest and congress could provide for others to take their places .and concentrate all authority in Washington. And the only reason for this bill Is that some people have appointed themselves guardian of the negro. He drew a psychological picture of what takes in a Southern rural community when a black brute outrages an unprotected school girl on the highway or a lonely farmer's wife and asked: "So you suppose if you pass this bill yoh will better this awful thing?" IJr. Stevenson then concluded with a sojhmn warning to the Republicans In the house. He said: "We have been dealing with this evil and South Csgolina has made gfeat progress. You wiH only foment agitation and resent mpnt by $\Is b\JI. The Juries be the. same no matter in what court you call the case. The state authorities will cease to enforce tjieir laws, shifting the burden on the national government, with the result that local cooperation will be paralyzed, and the latter end of the matter will be worse ' than the first." * ?avid E. St. Clair. The Wizard at Work.?Those whc have been thinking that Luther Burbank slumbered at the switch are advised that it is no such thing. He has been working his miracles right along Some report of his activities comes tc us trom his haven at Santa Rosa / mong other things he has tamed the wild cat. The new Burbank oat i white, hull-less, and weighs approxi mafely sixty pounds to the bushel in stead of forty-five of the present com mon variety of oats.

Possibly that j is wnere . in? orange comes in. 1 Also from Brazilian nativity Burt>ank has developed a fruity vegetable much like our tomato and equally desirable in soups and salads. From Peru he has evolved a" winter grass that 'has alfalfa skinned. It withstands the heaviest frosts and is a fine forage for live stock, poultry and goats. The report further says that Burbank has an entirely new crimson artichoke, the globes of which are as beautiful as roees; but ten times great., There are also a yellow hibiscus, a prickly poppy and ah iridescent amaranthus. -1 In a morie practical way there is a new brand of sweet .corn that is said to be bigger/better and earlier than any other variety noyr in-the market. These are Some of tb*? upstanding fo&tures of the Burbank bulletin and show that years have not withered nor custom staled his propensities for tampering with the works of nature for ^he further benefit and entertainment oi mankind.?Ix>s Angeles Times (Jnd.

If all thle epltaphB In the graveyards told the' truth the devil would be wearing mourning. I believe in the Christian religion, in ,the supremacy of the Anglo-Saxon race and In America. There la no neutrality in religion or in Americanism. A man Is a one hundred per cent Christian or he is not a Christian at all;, a man is either a one hundred per cent, patriot or he Is no patriot b* ail. Every -nan's value is meaoured by his willingness to serve his country la peace as well as in war. Civilization is a ship, and you have a caotain's obligation to either save it or go down with it No 'flag can be greater than the people who live dnder it What a' coun-! try we would have if Eugene Debs were president and Victor Berger vice president and all the rest of that crew in high position in the govern-1 ment! i When the socialists nominated Debs for president w^ille he was a convict In the penitentiary they insulted every star in fhe flag and every man who loves his country. V " > i. -I I am a labor union man. All of my tabernabifes are built by union labor and I am proud of it, but I would not let a member of the I. W) W. drive a nail or saw a plank if I knew it. .A workman Is a thief if he loafs on his job, and an employer is a thief if he pays his employe less than a decent wage. Neither capital nor labor has the right to dictate the terms of an industrial dispute without taking the rvnhlio into consideration. The public has a bigger stake In any Industrial dispute than either capital or labor, and don't you forget it. The mission bf America qow Is to salvage the world from the wreck and the hell of war. Our next fight here In America must be to abolish the so-called social evil. I believe In denominations. Denominations fit different temperaments, and I believe they are of God. But a real Christian doesn't pay much attention to denominational lines. Our society will never be worth respecting until it demands the same standards for men that it demands for women. Modest dress means high morals; ijnmodest dress means low morals and you dare not dispute it. The devil himself couldn't catch a man until be baited his hook with a woman. Adam, the first man, fell for a woman, and men have been falling for women ever since. Enthusiasm for God is infectious. If you have it you will give it to others. Knowledge Is of no value unless you use it. The greatest handicap to Christianity is the kind of lives that some so-called Christians lead. "There are no difficulties to him that wills." We can do anything that we will to do. I am not a magician or a professional entertainer of any kind. I am merely an- old-fashioned preacher of old, fashioned religion. When time is lost it cannot be sal( vaged. It is a total loss. A man may be converted ir a desert ' or upon a lonely mountain, but T don't believe any man was ever converted } without the use of some human agency i ' " BeWare of get-rieh-qulck schemes.

It takes neither brains nor heart to be a knocker. A working Christian will never have jiny doubts as to his Christianity. If vmi ?Ls?f him if he is a Christian he will not say, "I hope so."

The key check probably assisted the traitorous Arno.d the night he removed military plans from West Point and came down the Hudson to meet Major Andre of the British.
