We say "American hell" because this is the only cotintry in the cvvilized world where such an incident could happen.^ Sitting quietly and chat- ^ ting with some white acquaintan- 1 oes, the conductor of the train, in y a rude manner ordered him to t f leavo the Pullman and go to the' ? v'iifr "I v,\ - second cla^s Coach, threatening I cl hat if he did not get- a move on, L, 10 would have him arrested. The hi fact that he was an inter-state dl' passenger, with a through ticket iu in his possession meant uothinglo oi that conductor; the fact that he U nHMnlK-H- ol U'ongres-r meant ti less. All that counted was that u< liie Congressman had a bfrtnvn face instead tof a wnite one.
