Milwaukee, Wis., Aug* 4.?A Sentinel special from Marinette, Wis., says: United States Senator Benjamin R. Tillman, of South Carolina, ( addressed a large audience on the 1 race question from a southern . standpoint. One of the features j of his remarks was a plea in justi- i fication of lynching. "In Wisconsin you hare 5,000 black meo," tie said. "Why don't you try the bleaching pro- i cess and exterminate them by ii- i termarrying ? The idea is repug- ) nant to you.

The 'carpet-bag- i gers,' the 'nigger' and the south- j ern scalawags and scoundrels ruled j us after the war, until they had stolen everything that there was in the State; then we went with our shot guns te the polls and took it away from them. All men are not created equal and the 'niggera' ate not fit to vote. Come what may, the white people of the south will govern their own country." He condemned Booker Washington's scheme of educating the negro along industrial lines, as an attempt to place him on an equality with the white artisan, something that would intensify race hatred in the south. He said that among the 4,000,000 slaves dur. in. /V-ll ' ?ug ?b? v/ivn war, mere were more Christians than there are today among the 9,000,000 blacks in the south. "I do not want to uphold slavery," he continued. "I thank God there are no slaves today under the stars and stripes."
