greaf concern because believed
that the authorities were abundant
ly able to handle the situation. But
having gone home and retired, I
was called down to the city hall.
There I beheld a sight wnicn maae
my blood run cold. A howling mob
were in control. The court house
was a blaring furnace. Terrified
prisoners were cringing in terror on
the roof. The sheriff, chief of po
lice and mayor and others in au
thority were practically shut up in
the, court house like rats in a trap.
Causes of Tragedy.
"Let us look at the causes of this
tragedy.
"We have had a carnival of crime
for the past few months.
"No less than 21 frightful crimes
have occurred within the past few
weeks. . ' .
"Houses have been robbed. Pri
vate citizens have been held up.
Women have been boiind, gagged
and ravished. An aged Jewish mer
chant was shot dead in his place of
business by three colored boys and
these boys received a prison sen
tence of only 10 years.
"The people came to believe that
there was no hope for justice.
"One of the greatest causes was
the condition of the police them
selves. We are told that many sur
rendered their badges and arms
without a struggle. At 4 p. m. 50
of the, police went home to rest.
Blames Department Head.
"In my judgment the police were
not so much to blame as the peo
ple who created and trained them.
They had become the pawns of poli
tics and they actually concluded Jhat
the enforcement of law was a joke
rid never to be enforced.
"They saw this in the matter of
stolen automobiles. That the only
way that a man could get back his
auto was to pay a sum of money
and keep his mouth shut
"The greatest cause of all was
that the body of the people had for
gotten God. They had turned him
down. - Men high in office and so
ciety spent the Sunday on the golf
links instead of church. The youth
ran rampant and without moral
teachers or good example.
Real Men Needed.
"Now what shall we do?
"Let us do as the governor said,
"wash our own soiled linen in our
1 own back yard.
"Let the real man be chosen to
reorganize and train and command
the body of police.
"Letj the people understand that
there Is such a thing as central
'' authority. Only yesterday .one of
our citizent refused to move on at
the command of f a young soldier.
The young soldier stuck a bayonet
into -him and he moved instantly.
JJncle Sam has authority. Why
may this city not have it? "
Rev. Mr. Boyer Draws Lesson
From Sunday Night's Riot
"Lessons From the Mob" was the
subject of the Rev. S. L. Boyer's
sermo-.t at the Trinity Methodist
church yesterday morning.
Rev. Mr. Boyer discussed in an an
alytical manner the rioting at the
court house, causes leading up to
the not and remedies.
"Mnh law is anarchv." he said. "It
is antagonistic to civilization and a
irect blow to our city and our
heme. Mob law is no law at all.
''. I "The personnel of the mob was
varied. Some of the leaders were
mere youths, others were irrespon
sible adults, and still others were
thoughtless people. Not all of the
persons who made up the mob were
vicious, but I believe a majoity
were. ' ,

worship events of such far-reach
ing significance have occurred that
they demand a moment of our at
tention. The details need not be
recitedvthey are like a terrible
nightmare to all of us. A mob at
first of a handful of boys and young
men gathered at our court house,
demanding the life of a negro who
it is alleged had committed a hem
ous crime. This handful was soon
surrounded by thousands of on
lookers and as the cover of darkness
settled over the scene out of this
vast throng came the flotsam and
jetsam of a great city, the hoodlums,
the bums, the thugs, the radicals
whose hands are against every man
and whose only desire is to destroy
the existing order of things in the
hope that out of the ruin may rise
something better for themselves.
They sacked and burned our splen
did court house and at last after the
most determined resistance by the
authorities they secured their victim,
hung iiim to a corner post, riddled
his -body with bullets, dragged it
through the streets,, burned it as far
as possible and afterwards dragged
the cnarred remains through the
downtown district.
Cowardly Assault
All .of this is terrible enough, but
the thing that touches this congrega
tion the most deeply is that in the
progress of this short reign of terror
a cowardly, uncalled for, brutal at
tempt was made upon the life of our
good friend and fellow member of
this congregation, Mayor Ed P.
Smith, for no other cause than that
of standing out unflinchingly and un
waveringly in the very face of immi
nent death, like a man, for the en
forcement of law and order and for
the protection of all citizens from
mob violence until they shall be tried
by due process of law and found
guilty and sentenced to receive the
penalty decided upon by the people
through their representatives as em
bodied in the laws' of the state.
We need not remind you that the
daily nress of the country from one
end of it to the other are singing
the praises of this modest, unassum
ing friend, neighbor and brother of'
ours for his courage, patriotism, loy
alty and fidelity in this hour of test
ing that came so near ending fatally,
We who know him are not surprised
in the least; it is'just what we ex
pected of him and we were not dis
appointed We knew he would rath
er lose his life than to willingly and
knowingly consent to wrong and in
justice or fail in the hour when duty
called.
, Man of High Ideals.
We desire to go on record as a
congregation in expressing our un
bounded faith in Mayor Smith as a
man of the highest ideals, the noblest
purposes and as a man of unswerv
ing fidelity to his God, his country,
his city, his home, his church, his
friends and to the brotherhood of
man. We desire likewise- to go on
record with him as being utterly op
posed to any sort of crime or mis
demeanor against the public good,
the public morals and the public
safety; but we wish likewise to go on
record with him as being absolutely
opposed to any kind and etery kind
ci mob rule or violence and we
pledge him and the city our utmost
support in every possible way to
maintain law and order and to con
serve to our citizens the rights guar
anteed by the constitution of the
United States, and by the laws of the
nation, the state and the community. .
We also pledge ourselves to exert
every effort within the pale of our
rights as citizens to rid our city of
every insiduous influence that tends
to breed contempt of law and order
and to incite riot and violence.
Deepest Sympathy. .
We wish, ene and all, to express
to Mayor Smith our abiding love
and our deepest sympathy in his
passing physical affliction and our
immeasurable and inexpressible
appreciation of his courage, his
manhood and his" fidelity to the trust
delivered unto him. We join with
his family in deep gratitude for that
Providential Care that seemed to
be round about him, even in the hour
of darkness and peril and we re
joice that in his deliverance a kind
and loving father and husband has
been spared to the home, a worthy
executive has been spared to the
city, a noble and manly man has
been spared to the world, a depend
able citizen has been spared to this
nation and a brother and friend,
trusted and beloved has been spared
to 'this church. May his noble and
unselfish example inspire us all to do
our duty in our hour of testing as
faithfully as he did his is the prayer
of all our hearts.
Church Attends Too Much
to Non-Essential Things
"The exercises of Sunday night
were the product' of a reckless
spirit of lawlessness, engendered by
persistant newspaper propaganda,
and organized by the gangsters of
the, city for a purpose of embar
rassing and discrediting the admin
istration, and of providing a cover
under which to carry out their plans
of thievery and thuggery," said Rev.
J. Delman Kuykendall Sunday
morning at the Plymouth Congre
gational church, Eighteenth and
Emmet streets.
The speaker condemned the atti
tude of many people who hold that
for the protection of property, the
accused negro should have been
surrendered to the mob. Neither
life nor property will ever be safe,
he said( unless in such crisis there
shall be formed men who will, like
Mayor Smith, risk life itself in de
fense of the law.
"The church to some extent is re
sponsible for the existence of the
condition making possible the riot.
Too much attention has been given
to piddling over non-essential ques
tions of creed or form while
weightier matter of brotherhood
and mercy and justice have been
overlooked. The church might, if
it ever umted in,deadly earnest, cre
ate such a power of public opinion
that no gangster .-would dare try to
obtain place or power in the com
munity." " ' ?
The severest possible punishment
for the members of the mob was" de
manded by the speaker. He declared
that the heavy hand of the law
should rest not only on the dupes
who were pushed into the actual
leadership of the riot, but upon the
skulking gangster who ' organized
the mob. providing it with liquor
and guns and sent it oat to do its
devilish work.
"There is every indication that
there were some 'higher-ups' in this
orgy of crime," he' said, "and they
should be ferreted out and punished
to the limi' "

To Read Gen. Wood Letter
Before Council Today
Omaha yesterday enjoyed the
beautiful October sunshine and re
called the thrillng events of a week
ago. Many others wandered around
the court house square and viewed
with reminscent thoughts the evi
dence of destruction.
In the city hall, which now is
one of the centers of interest in
connection with the recent riot,
Acting Mayor Ure and Col. A. L.
Dade of Maj. Gen. W ood s staff,
spent a busy Sunday. During the
morning they conferred with Coun
ty Attorney Shotwell and Police
Commissioner Ringer.
At this mornings meeting of the
city council committee of the whole
a letter from General Wood will be
read. The general dictated the mes
sage Saturday nieht. shortly before
he departed for Chicago, leaving di
rections that the communication
should be presented to the city coun
cil today. The letter will be made
public after the council has received
it
May Make Changes.
It is expected that further devel
opments will materialize this week
in connection with the prospective
removal of Chief, of Police Eber
stein and the probable change in the
office of superintendent of police.
In iew of the situation as brought
out last Saturday, some are begin
ning to inquire whether there is a
disposition in some quarters to make
Chief Eberstein the "goat." It is
understood that the chief will de
cline to be sacrificed in this man
ner, and that he will be heard on the
subject if the occasion should be
presented.
A state of general quiet prevails
over the city, which is settling back
to normal conditions again. The
troops which were sent here from
Camp Funston and Camp Grant will
be returned to their posts this week.
Some detachments will be held here
until further orders are issued.
Will Drill Police.
Major C. M. White of Fort Omaha
will begin this week to drill the po
licemen into a semi-military organ
ization. There is a rumor that the
major may be appointed as inspector
of police after his discharge from
military service, but that is proble
matical. Applications are being con
sidered from men who want to join
the gplice department, under the
decision of the city council last
week, adding 100 men to the force.
State, county and city investiga
tors are continuing their efforts to
apprehend persons suspected of
having been implicated in the
crimes committed a week ago yes

effort in this direction.- The grand
jury soon will, begin to consider
these cases, i - .
No further cases of disorder have
been reported to the. military or
police authorities.

On the other hand Manager Glea

Sox go to it from now on. We

excellent condition tomorrow if
there was no more rain.
Gleason Is Nervous.
Manager Gleason, of the White
Sox, for the first time since the series
began, today was restless. He and
Pitchers Grover Loudermilk and
"Lefty" Sullivan were the only
members of the club at the park
at game time. The Sox were nearly
all there during the morning, how
ever. "It's the best team that ever went
into a world's series," was the man
ager's comment on his team, but it
isn't playing the base ball that won
the league pennant. I don't know
what's the matter, the players don't
know what's the matter, but the
team has not show.n itself thus far.
But we'll be there tomorrow."
Base ball writers tonight were es
timating that if the attendance to
morrow equals that of any one of
the previous days, players of the
winning team will receive about
$6,000 each, and the losers about
$4,000 each. According to their es
timates, members of the New York
Nationals and Cleveland Americans,
runners-up in their respective
leagues races will receive about
$1,000 each, under the division of the j
players pool, while members of the
Chicago Nationals and New York
Americans, , who finished third in
their leagues, should get about $700
each.
Omahan Tells History of
Negro Lynching 1714891
Ed. F. Morearty Recounts Disorders of Night and Denies
That He Led Mob That Entered County Jail
Broke Window Accidently.
Ed F. Morearty, attorney, relates
in his Omaha Memories the part he
played in the lynching of George
Smith, the negro who assaulted Liz
zie Yates, S-year-old white girl Octo
ber 10, 1891. The negro was hanged
in front of the Boyd theater, Seven
teenth and Harney streets. Mr.
Morearty then was a member of the
city council. He denies he took any
part in the lynching as recounted in
yesterday's Bee.
"The first intimation I had of it
was about 9:30 p. m. when I was re
turning from the Exposition build
ing, where I had delivered a speech
in support of an ordinance then
pending where a new company
sought to secure a street railway
franchise," writes the author. "Ob
serving crowds of excited people
running towards the county jail,
curiosity moved me to follow.
"On my arrival there I obserevd
James E. Boyd, then governor, and
Judge George Wi Doane, then
judge of the district court, address
ing the mob, advising them that the
law take its cdwrse. When they were
through I was called for, and being
placed upon the edge of the window
where I could barely stand, I ad
dressed the howling mob along the
same lines as did the previous
speakers. Having my cane in my
hand, the pushing and jolting of the
mob caused the cane to strike the
window glass, making a tremendous
crash, which was a very unfortu
nate occurrence, as it gave impetus
to the mob, leaving the impression
that the first step had been taken
towards the entrance of the jail. In
the mad rush of the infuriiated mob
I was thrown to the ground and
barely escaped with my life.
"Waiting some little time in the
crowd, I saw men coming from all
directions with hammers and bat
tering rams to break the doors and
windows, which they very soon suc
ceeded in doing, thereby affecting an
entrance to the jail, where the
breaking of bars and locks could L-c
heard a block away.
"About 11 o'clock I had started
home. Having arrived on the cor
ner of Seventeenth and Harney
streets, I there waited a ' few mo
ments, where I engaged in conver
sation with Governor Boyd,) Gil
bert Hitchcock and Rev. P. F. Mc
Carthy, who were deploring the gad
conditions of things. Shortly after
wards the crowd began surging to
wards us, dragging the unfortunate
victim down the hill and through
the crowd till they reached the
northeast corner of Seventeenth and
Harney streets, there placing a
noose around the victim's neck and
throwing the rope over a telephone
wire, drew his lifeless body up and
left it dangling in the ;.ir until it
was removed by the Omaha fire de
partment shortly afterward.
"The most unfortunate thing
about this lynching was the fact
that there was no truth to the story
that the supposed ravished girl was
dead or even injured, and had the
evidence been adduced, it would
have disclosed the fact that he was
not guilty of the crime, which could
and would have been proven had he
had his preliminary hearing. This is
but the repeated story of the acts of
ah infuriated, mob."
Taken III in Home of Friend
Man Cannot Walk or Talk
Charlie Jackson, 31 years old, 1919
Chicago street, was taken peculiarly
ill last night in the home of Miss
Lulu Gilmore, 1921 Chicago street.
Jackson was taken to Lord Lister
hospital by the police. At an early
hour this morning the cause of his
illness had not been learned.
Jackson could understand what
was said to him but could not use
his limbs or his tongue. He an
swered questions by nodding. Jack

I, V.W. WORKING
TO START RACE
RIOT IN BLUFFS
Negro and White Propagand
ists Work Among Railroad
Men in Endeavor to
Create Disturbance.
Just how near Council Bluffs came
to being the scene of race riots dur
ing the early part of last week may
now be told. The facts are im
portant because they indicate that
the motive was not race hatred but
was revolutionary, with I,Wi V.
"workers" figuring as the inciting
agents.
At least fwo white men and one
negro are known to have been work
ing in railroad yards Monday and
Tuesday afternoons. Two white men.
who admitted they were I. W. W.
propagandists, . went through the
yards selecting men among the for
eigners whom they wished to ap
proach. They advised these men to
"rush the negroes and drive 'em out
of the yards," calling them scabs
and declaring they had no place
among the white workers. '
Two of the men were confronted
in the Union Pacific yards Tuesday
by a newspaper man and questioned.
Thev admitted their 1. W. W. mem
bership and said they were from Chi
cago. The scribe represented him
self to be a sympathetic member of
the order but he fumbled when they
gave him the "high ball," and they
became uncommunicative. The
propaganda fell on apparently poor
soil and the newspaper man ques
tioned a number of men who were
thoroughly angry. They said the
fellows urged them to arm them
selves and "clean up the negroes."
Whil they were at work a gigan
tic negro, said to be an Alabama I.
W. W. was at work among the
negroes, urging them to organize
and arm themselves, telling them the
white men were going to attack
them and they must fight for their
lives. The mischief-makers succeed
ed in avoiding railroad detectives
and local police and disappeared.

HOWARD STREET
H. J. Adams, 2222 Howard St., says: "I have
used Doan's Kidney Pills off and on for several
years and never have they failed to relieve tne,
when suffering from disordered kidneys. I used
to do a lot of heavy work and it was hard on my
kidneys. I suffered considerable pain through
my back and often had to get up two or three
times at night to pass the secretions. I felt tired
and run down until I began using Doan's Kidney
Pills. This medicine was quick to act and as a
result I was entirely rid of the trouble."
