But the fact j ema ns that there are man^ businesses in which colored people could with -pioiit engage, bui do not seem to realize such, li l^r-'-this-^t-y 'io^-an. e.xaniple, tliere t not a colored photogiapher at the present time, the only one having died sonic time ago.

It seems at times that the South is over, sensativc, espoo'ally whor it is <.riticisd about thngs out ol hftimo.n' with n himh standard ol oviliz'tion. Take the effort tc legislate c< .icerning lynching" tc " the end that this barbarous pra-ct;se r.ay be stamped out. Viewing w th alarm the great effort now being put forth in Congress to enact a law against lynching the "Lee County Messenger" has the following to say: i< a !- ? 1 ? n. uuiiu rnuur iaw anu an ann? lynch'ng ,law nre_ in. process. _ of being forced on the iiouth by the national government. They will be, if our southern senators and representatives do not find some way of blocking the two in quitous matte The anti-lynch law is aimed directly at the south, and the child labor law, wh le not aim ed directly at the solith will be .greatly against the interest of thi s section". Now just why should an anblynching law be regarded as "aimed directly at the South" unless the nefarious practise is regarded as the special baby of the South wh'ch i3 unwilling, like other r?fts of this nation, to conform with \ , I those principles und practises I which one s pleased to regard marks of a Christian civilization. ^ The nat on certainly ha3 . some light in its standing among the enlightened nations of the world. That being true, why should it lorever stapd ?dly by and allow ihe South, or any other section for that matter to decide just how it >nouid be regarded by world nations. The enlightened Southerner is not wedded to lynching. A recent poll as to that shows that a rnnirmtv-tth-hb* section is.aga'nst ] lynching, and many thousanus are .11 favor of a Federal anti-lynching taw. There are many, of course, who think the South should be r let alone and be allowed to lynch io its heart's content, but no onu would rate such as the most enlightened and b?w-ab> ding. But even they do not proclaim from the.house top th**t the* are in iavor of lynching. Instead, they say .hat they are not in favor of it out that the Couth should be al.owed to stop it tself, knowing an the time that left alone it will do ootning of the kind. Instead of ihe southern politicians opposing ~3 Federal anti-lynehing law, they hould be the strongest champions of such?thut is if they really are for its g^od name. I ; MOUNTAIN CITY| II ECHOES I | By "CAP JIM" A Strange But True On Sunday afternoon though dteary as it was, there were some aright th ngs going on. Down in Laurens county, Rev. W. R. Mar-. . an, a Baptist preacher was delivering the ociation at the funeral of u Methodist preacher thai aad gone "Across. In Greenville county, Rev. N. E. Franklia,- a .ueinotiist pieacher was painting a beautiful picture of the life 01 a woman full grown who was as they s,ng some time: "Baptist horn and Baptist bred". Now we ud not hear Bee. Martin's discourse but from experience, we uiioW he did honor to the ocea. ion. But we say without fear and without stretching the truth hat it would have been some i pleaching in Zion for any other _ . ? * * * ~ j'nd of preacher to have excelled vhat was handed out about the i ,ood works of the dead sister. His i text was "Let Her ,Alone, She | ilas Done What She Could". And vvhen he finished that throng of i people present agroed that the l good sister's life measured up to . v.iru text. So " truly the Lord is l- 'moving Vn a mysterious way". ? The Legislature' having acted, .low* Greenville county has 23 state .iigh schools for whites and only -?Sterling?for colored. Then us de from that Greenville City ta's within her lmiits 2 of the best colleges in the South?one for men pie for women. 2 great colleges, .3 state high schools, all with one .j m. to make real men and women out of the white boys and girls ..nd young men and women. That's . .r ii - - i iur muii smu or uie piacaru urn to the other side and there ve find just one state high for colored boys, and girls, young men .mil women and the nearest col^ - (ege?100- indes away,?May the .ongregation join in, let us sing: 'And must I be to judgement wrought and answer in that day?" i'he poet' asked and answered the great question, but colored fathers 1 and mothers with boys and g rls ' wishing to go on with their equation find but little consolation n what may happer^l,000,000 years 1 from now. Cain asked God the 1 question that men through all generation have tried to ^evade: "Am I my brother's keeper,". Christ came on the scene?the ques ion was still beinb Hotly debated? so He declared that the greatest 1 commandment was love to or for God, and i^nd?which was likened unto the first Thou shall love thy - neighbor fts thy sell",. Some day Christians will really live the teachings of Christ. Then and riot until then, will the public funds be more evenly divided. ;; Kampbellgrams X lo Stephen C. Campbell T A. R.
