Charlotte News, No more fearful warmnghas tKHn souuded to the npgro race o! America than that in Atlanta recently. It in well en ouch to hice the 'oronntfitfon a it i and not attempt to smother the Rprinnnnona of it That which occurred in Atlan ta might occur In Charlotte or any other city in any oth er tat in :he union under similar circumstances with eqnal pressure. Atlanta peo- p! are no better nor worse than we or any 01 her Wm bprs of the Anglo-Saxon race. We fear that the occurrence in Atlanta is onlv the begin ning, the liffht sprinkle that precedes the storm. At least, it would appear so now. God forbid that this be trne, but it is well enough to consider the matter as it really is with ifJ o mora, solemn warning has been giyen the negro of the South than the blobdv occurrence of last Saturdny night. . Sometime ago wewrote an editorial exhorting the better class of negroes to awakeu to their great duty of aiding in the uprooting of the accur sed practice of the negro brutes assaulting whtte wo. men. We may ha?e been con sidered alarmists then. Irany one thinks so, let him see the things we ex presssed fear of in the bloody story from At Innta. Again we declare that the law-abiding clasH of negroes can do more to wipe out the commission of the unmen- tiunoble crime than can the whites. True, at recent con ventions the leaders of t h e race have introduced repolu tions expressing regret for the occurrence of assaults in theSonth. They have express ed their disapproval of t h e crimes.

If, in the face of the terrible warning of Saturday night, negroes continue! to commit thcr hellish deed hey can expect only the rep tition, of Saturday night's shambles, in worse und more isastrous degree.

Therefore In t h e ace of a cris which Is not the phantasy of a fanatic's dream, let ns ftrouHe oursel ves and raake.ona final and heroic effort to reach the h'art ol the problem and sol ve it. An investigation showed hat in Atlanta there were numerous negro clubs ana disreputable dives frequented by a worthless class of negro bums and vagrants. In these oints were found o bacon pictures of nude white women which have no doubt incited may black fiends to theepm- miesion of the crime which have been the primal step to the revenge of Saturday night. These dives without a Jonbt are to be found in most of our sonthern cities.

Bryan is the most prominent figure in the United States today, It does matter whether yoti agree with his docto'rine of public or not. Twice I voted against him, rather refused to vote for him. If I ever have the chance again I think 1 shall vote for him; not because 1 agree with his views on monuy or railroad but because T eliev he is the one great representative of moral in- gtity in the political woild today, U'heie is there nn- iIht man in politics today, who stands ont for his hon est convictions regardless of popularity or position as V, J, Bryan? ... He is the orje honest in a n in high political life today, ie stands head and sbculd- erson this platform above every other politician of this decade, If he stands out in his same moral grandure or tue next two years, n tidal wave will sweep him uto the White House regard eas of his personal yiews on bese peculiar questions. I once said I would never vote or him. His frankuess, sin cerity, and sterling hoiiestv makes me eat my words. 1 ove to vote for a' man. Bry an is every inch of a man. in political life the platform is smaller than the man, It is the creation of men, he man is a creation of God; The man on the platform is what concerns the American citizen. He is of the same im portance as the man ! MiiBd the guns. Pat a man in an of flee and the office will be'.ta ken care of,- and the country also. I have never admired Mr. Bryan because 1 had no sympathy with his views, bnt having studied the man and watched him as he passed be ore the public and under the severest teats, I have soon a man worthy Qf the name and shall count it a priyilego to vote for him, if he stands ont in such a majestic mnn- ner two years hence There is no olher man in public who would have ntter erl Bryan's paragraph on the 'Public, ownership" under sim ilar conditions. The politi cians have said it marred his great ppeech, and has crush ed one party and made an other. I don't beJiare'a word of it.

Brother Crisp professed faith in Christ when a young man, and I suppose united with Pisgnh Baptist, church some three miles west of Le noir, but was a member of Lenoir Baptist church at the time of his death. He was twice married, his first wife being a Miss Cragg and his last a Miss Cannon. Bv the first union there were six chil dren, four of whom ore liv ing, and by the last six, all of whom are living. Mr. Crisp livad for a nara ber of years in Watauga connty, and engaged in the mercantile business at Shuils Mill and Boone, While he ived in Watanga Co., he was elected representative to the Legislature oh the Re publican ticket one session. Soon after he returned to Caldwell Co., and held a po sitions of trust aud for a time again engaged in the mercantile business. In 1904 he was elected a member of the L"gislatnre, on the Re pnbjican. ticket for Caldwell. The las public positon he held was a clerkship in the ReVenpo jniflce at Ashvllle, During this service he was taken ill- ot bright a d'sease . . .... ... and other complications, of which he died. vMr'i Crisp was a good citi zen, a good neighbor, a good h unhand and father, fle was liberal ard iRrge henrteri, al wayB ready to help the needy and every worthy object.
