CONGRESSMAN MITCHELL
PLEASED.
The.re at least one prominent
9 colored man pleased over the' ap
pointment of Senator Hugo L.
Black as a Justice of the U. S.
Supreme Court* That gentleman
Is Congressman Mitchell, the only
colored man ever sent as a Dem
ocrat to Congress. In fact, * the.
Congressman gives the appointment
his "enthusiastic approval."
Of course, the Congressman has
"the right to his opinion, the same
as others, who do not see eye to
eye with him. M77 Mitchell seems
to Jay much stress upon the faef
that the Senator is in complete
v sympathy with the underprivileged
and oppressed because of. his advocacy
of the wage and hour bill ;
and are not Negroes of that class?
Mr. Mitchell seems to forget however
that the Senator fought every
effort to pass an anti-lynehing
bill?are not Negroes almost
always, the lynchees? After the i
passage of such a bill, as now
seems likely, and a test of it is made
before thL- Supreme Court, ?
.could with .consistency Justice i
Black uphold , it ? The Scottsbord i
boys cases will again be before l
that august tribunal, will the Jus- i
tice be able t*> do justice? In the j
coining years, no doubt questions :
affecting the citizenship rights of <
colored people will find themselves j
before the Supreme Court, can ;
they be viewed by the Justice in \
a different light from that i n s
which he has seen them all his
life ? Colored people can but hope
?feeling though~thut the mere pntv ~
ting on of a robe does not and can
not work any miraculous chang^.
TENNESSEE HELPS.
Accused of killing a City Marshal,
a colored man was lynched
last week. The man was being
brought from Memphis, where for
30 days ho had been a^Wiojr safe,
keeping, to Covington for adrear
ing. He was being transportedby
the Sheriff in an automobile.
According to the Sheriff, when about
12 miles from Covingtop. 6
men, just 0, took the nlan from
him, seized his pistol too and'
hanged the man shooting him with
the Sheriff's pistol. The Sheriff
fknf V\c% Korrrro^l "1^1 I
J ... ^68<;u n.v.u U) ici
the law take its course." The
mob answered him with "to hell
with that." Of course, that is the
answer of all mobs. Law means
nothing to them, that is State
law. But wait until the federal
anti-lynching law gets going next
year. The G-Men will never hear
, such answers.
The fact is Sheriff Vaughn was
as much of that mob as any of
the other men. How did they know
when he was going for that prisoner,
or what route he would take?
The Sheriff, of course had in-:
formed them. They knew in advance
that the Sheriff was so blind
x r
w \
c
that he just could not make out
one license plate on the automobiles.
Isn't it strange, that so
many Southern counties just insist
on electing blind Sheriffs. Of
course, much adp has been made
about grand jury investigation
and punishing the lynchers, but
who gives that any attention?
Maybe a few more mob murders
will occur before the Wagner-Van
Nuys anti-lynching bill becomes
law early next-year. After that,
investigations of lynchings will
mean something. G-Men's investigations
always have real meaning.

Not only did Dean

progress under the annual

$1.00 monthly from a few will do
this. Sept. 1, I go t? work for
