Frejident Taft on lynchiajj,
President Taft eontlnoea to soffer
the vilest misrepresentation at the
hands of his detractors, whose cam
palgn of rillifieation seem laid oat
systematically, with the view of tk
lot In all sections and classes. The
distributers of canards and the per
sonal assailants are acting as spe
cialists la particular line. For In
stance, down aotith certain stool
pigeons are sent oat to scatter the
falsehood that the president la aot
friendly to the colored man, and that
be baa never been on record ss rig.
orously opposed to negro lynching.
For the benefit of colored voters
from whose minds the memory of
Brownsville, which affair Secretary
Taft refuted to pfirer'e. may have
lipped for tb moment, w take the
liberty of restating what President
Taft said to the alumni of Howard
university, Washington, on the sub
ject of lynching:
It Is not any lass a murder because aa
men tak part In tt than because on
maa does. Ordinarily. It at aoooispanied
by s food deal mors aowardlc. because
MO ar In It Instead of one. The only way
by whlcit It can be suppressed Is that
aom Mm ws shall hevs sum aa sheriffs,
and as govsrnora, and ss prosecutors and
aa Jurors who rill ars to It that th men
who ar ensacsd In pulllnc Um rop un
der thoa condition shall themselves
wlnf by th rop. TV need sot sit
seemlrtfly ty those of us In any partic
ular section and think we ar better
than thoa in any other section, because
that lawlessness haa shown Its usiy head
both north and south of Mason and Dli
sn'S line, and R Is to be condemned
wherever It appears, and It la U be sup
pressed only by aa Improvement ta th
Individual opinion of the necessity for th
enforcement of law.
What other president has even
spoken as forcibly on tb subject?
What other public man has de
nounced lynchers In strosger terms?
The Intelligent colored men of this
country know words being good
and only so when backed by deeds
what a staunch friend they have al
ways aaa in nr. rsii. n

On th official ballota which are
to be voted at Nebraska's coming
primary the names of presidential
elector ar carried for tore politi
cal parties which are not proposing
to choow delegates to any national

Frankly, do aot believe the

1 Deservci a Hero Hedal
Heroism is aot alwaya spectacular,
nor Is th teat of sourage at all times
mide under conditions that stimulate
this daring qualities of man'a nature.
The better, more desirable courage
is -that which manifests Itself under
circumstances that appal rather than
in,vite the venturesome. The sudden
sh,ock of imminent disaster tries the
ful, and finds most people tempo
rarily timid. Courage that acts
promptly and coolly, and in order.
when suddenly called on, is the high
type that marks the real hero.
The sight of a girl struggling help

sw6llen Missouri chills Into Inaction

Tbtay gase la horror at the apectacle.
a life being swallowed by the relent
less, river, whose turbulent stream is
swiftly sweeping the victim toward
ernlty. Her fate seems fixed, and
those who look on await In Impotent
agony the moment when she will

.strength against that of th flood,
p reaches the girl, and by dint of
bis own powsr brings her to shore
And Mfety. An act that seems slm-
fcl In description, but ons of th sort
hat marks its performer as s hero
Worthy of all praise and commenda
tion m a true, courageous man. His
wn life he fearlessly ventured In
order .that another might not die. He
had not tb support of a cheering
crowd; no band played a stirring
march to fire him to the effort; by
hla aide no companions, equally
brave, struggled to accomplish the
end ha sought 'He waa alone, sup
ported only by his faith in hla
strength and skill, and animated by
the on thought, that of saving the
Ufa of a drowning girt.' No nobler
hero wm avr decorated.
A hero medal seems small recom
pense for such service; yet the hero
himself asks none, , Oliver O. Coul
soo should at Jeast have a medal to
prove to him that hla sourage,
strength and skill ar appreciated by
hi tallow men.
Warning' to Mexico,
The United 8 late has Issued 1U
ultimatum to Mexico, the most plain-
spoken statement yet made since the
revolution began. Acting upon th
president's direction, tb State de
partment simply aaya to both gov
ernment and rebel forces, "Keep
haada off Americans and their prop
erty or' tak th consequences."
, Mexico haa triad our -patience
and challenged our forbearance until
It left us nothing alas to do. Now, It
la up to Mexico to avoid the occasion
for the consequence. " Th United
State will hold the Mexican govern
ment responsible for depredations
committed by tbe rebels. That Is
made plain In the manifesto.
Our government attempts no jus
tification for rash Americana enlist
ing In either of Mexico' armies, but
at th same tlm It will Insist that
where such soldiers of fortune here
after ar taken as prisoners of war.
tney snau not be ruthlessly mur-
derefl, 3ut treated ss prisoners, go
cording to th rule of international
warfare. , Jt will be a very foolhardy
Mexican to question our determina
tion on that point
But It la not only the American
prlsoaer' of war and the soldier of
fort uirs whose rights th United
BtatM is bound to Insist on; many
Americana who hare resided for years
ia Mexico, never participating in any
act af war, have becom the objects
of concern and must be protected,
sine It ia not aasy for them to get
out of tb country. American friend
ship for Mexico has been manifested
oa ovary oeeaai and If this friend
ship Is worth maintaining Mexico
will ee to It that we has no occa
sion to go further then this warning.

about, and what changes In our fun

Doa't all apeak at once.
Nevertheless and notwithstanding,
not a single valid reason hss yet
been presented why President Taft
should net be accorded a second
nomination, the same as -every other
president elected as republican who
haa sought awrovai of hla party
record. '
