Collier's was tirailing against lyuchings,. {Southern lynching* especially) in ! February or March of this year; and, in the course of the editorial, 1 used "the exact text" which ap-j pears in the beginning of thisi article. j ^ Why is tile repentance of yMSN*?iolhers so belated? | The Christian Advocate, of 1 Dallas, Texas, called attention to! I that outrageous calumny on the \ South?did it last March. The! kin.Saw oDened nu at about the ' ?I ? f same time. The Macon telegraph, ? was not far behind. The An-' gusta, Ga., Chronicle also took upi the matter, and the .Jeffeisoniau blazed away in April. Why did Collier's ignore all these ' papers? It exchanged with the Telegraph, at that tittle. (1 presume it does not do so now; lor Mr Pondletou, j editor of the Telegraph, states, in: recent issue ??f his "paper, that! 110 longer permits Collier's to enter his home.) I know that Hapgood reads the; Kip-&tw, for he editorially (and) i with a lofty air of scorn) makes reference to it. Collier's also exchanges with The j ^ Jeffeisoniau and, presumably, with, h x The Chronicle; out whether itsedi-| |H^! torial High Brow condescends to read them, one cannot know. 1 The agents of Collier's have had / to meet this charge against the panot only m the South, but in W*~ the West, to which so many of our' I * joung men have migrated. There-1 I Jfc n-4nvaaspi'is. its sub- ! AV1C, Hum >.? , flcribers, and its exchanges, Collier's learned last April that its foul libel cf two months previous had kindled righteous wrath throughout two great sections of the Union. Did Collier's retract? Did it apologize? Did it pretend that something about an Illinois lyachiDg had slipped into its columns, without the knowledge of its editor, as it now does? Oh, no. In its issue of April 17, 1900, it bungled and floundered in a lame effort to prove that the antiProhibitiunists were manufacturing falsehoods against Collier's for the purpose of breaking the force of Collier's attack on the saloons! A barefaced subterfuge. Con^ernimr these anti-Prohibitionists Collier's used this language: j "They take ?u editorial of ours I ^ in which we give reasons why a J K- < prompt court trial is more ellicac ious ' than the judgment of a mob. Among other things we had occasion to menB, tion a certain class of women victims of man This admission of ours that fallen women do exist 1 upon this earth gave the saloon iii!!h ir ?>;!"iiiii" \ w, ! i \ <-:i ' r :i i v. m *s b m . he i ;i.i \ ' > . it ..I :.i ! ?'i> \ - ? *' . ir - : ,:'i 1 ?!)

Is it not enough j that the poor, bleeding, l?roken-| hearted victim of tlie negroe's lust j is ruined for life? Is it not enough that she dies of her lacerations or her inconsolable grief? Must a white editor coine along with his nigger-loving morbidity and write upou her tombstone an epitaph which brands her name with eternal dishonor? Would it not be bad enough if negro editors did that? They have never done it. Venomously as Pulitzer hates the South, his New York World has never gone to such calumnious lengths. Purblind as the Outlook and the Independent are on all questions peculiar to the South, they have never equaled the mendacious bitterness of Collier's. Those periodicals content themselves .vith the giving of all their sympathies to the rapist?none to) his victim?and they do not claim ! as Collier's virtually did, that the J white women consented, but falsely accused their negro paramours to avoid scandal! In his reply to The Georgian,! NormanHapgood claims that he was J discussing a Northern not and j lynching. Well, does he mean to say that at I tne North white women "falsely accuse'' negro men "as the easiest way to escape scandal"? Speak up, llapgood, in your paper, and tell us what sisters of yours were referred to. You either meant your Northern sisters or your Southern sisters. Say which?you reckless slanderer! If you intend to say that in Illinois, or in any other State or territoiy of this Union, the white women falsely accuse the negro men of hav ing raped them us the easiest way to escape the scandal of having consented, then, in the name of American manhood, I denounce you as a traitor to our great white race, an apostate from truth, a base truckler to the Afro-Americans and the negrophiles.a disgrace to American journalism, a cowardly defamer of Aryan womanhood! Were any man to s^y in my presence or in that of any typical Southerner, that Northern white women who appear to have been violated by negro men "falsely accused"' the negroes as the easiest escape from scandal, the answer would be, quick kind stern: "You an* an infamous liar!" ?

Restful, body-building sleep accompanies the use of Dr. Miles' Nervine because it soothes the irritable j nerves, and restores nervous J energy. When taken a few days ; according to directions, the most j restless sufferer will find sleep j natural and healthful. Get a j bottle from your druggist.
