were largely conjectural. He thought that
a protest ought to be entered against Mr.
Chamberlain's way of combining his pres
tige as a minister with the liberty of an
ordinary politician. In order to forward
his views. It was a constitutional scan
dal. said Lord Hugh Cecil, scarcely loss
than the premier's attitude towards all
proposals to discuss the fiscal policy In

Great Britain on the basis of increasing
the present duties against the foreigner
to the verge of prohibition, thus throw
ing into the trade of the motherland all
the Australian Imports now coming from
Germany and America. To that end the
protectionist organ has been proceeding
for months papt."

ADDRESSES MOB CONVENTION
Lynching, Held to Be the Stroagest
Chcclc on Criminal Assaults on
Women Whether by White
or Colored Mea.
CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y.. Aug. 11. Unique
among all Summer gatherings Is the "Mob
Conference' now in progress here. The
Increase of mob. spirit shown by feuds.
lynchlngs. riots, assassinations and other
lawless happenings gives great Impor
tance to this conference.
Among today's speakers wa3 John Tem
ple Graves, of Atlanta, Ga... who spoke
on "ine mod spirit or the South." He
defended lynching as a remedy for the
crime of rape, holding that though lynch
ing is a crime It Is Justified by the crime
which provokes It. and will never be dis
continued until that crime Is eliminated.
The remedy for lynching must be the
elimination of the crime of rape, and this,
he maintained, could be dono only by
the separation of tho two races In the
United States.
"The problem of the hour Is not how
to prevent lynching In the South, but
tne larger question: How shall we de
stroy the crime which always has and al
ways will provoke lynching? The answer
which the mob returns to this vital
question is already known. The mob an
swers It with the rope, the bullet and
sometimes, God save us, with the torch.
And tho mob Is practical, Its theory Is
effective to a large degree; the mob Is
today the sternest, the strongest and the
most effective restraint that the ace
holds for the control of rapine."
"The lyncher does not exterminate the
rapist." Mr. Graves contended, "but he
holds him mightily In check. As a sheer.
cold, patent fact, tho mob stands today
as tne most potential bulwark between
the women of the South and such a car
nival of crime as would Infuriate the
world and precipitate the annihilation of
the negro race.
The masses of the negroes, he held.
are not afraid of death coming on in
the regular way. They love display, and
tne spectacular element of a trial and
execution appeal to thejr Imaginations.

"The truth which lies beyond and above

tne only solution of this great problem of
the races."
In the afternoon at the mob conference
Mr. Graves answered questions. The
North and South were about equallv rep
resented. Mr. Graves' plan for the solu
tion of the race troubles Is a state set
aside for negroes and disfranchisement
out of that territory. He proposed no
general exodus, but a gradual emlgra
tlon. He said the South would not ob
ject to the loss of the negroes, for It Is
learning" the superiority of white labor.
"Is mob execution." he was asked, "
matter of economy to the South?"
"iso, ne repueo. "tne south never

Another question was:
"Are not the Southern mobs larselv
