San Francisco Call.
Last year the discovery was made
that a 'arge number of negroes were held
In the convict camps in Georgia and
worked under ihe lash who had never
been convicted of any crime nor sen
tenced by any court. They had been
lured Into the 'amps and thereafter
detained by force.
Among theiri were found women who
had entered the camps to visit relatives
and were forbidden to depart. One of
these had carried with her a baby boy,
that had been kept and had nearly
rrown to manhod as a convict. The
mother had been repeatedly whipped
by the overseer to compel her to render
uncompensated service. The story of
wrongs endured by her and other inno
cent persons held In slavery as crim
inals caused a passing s?nsation. There
Is no evidence that th? state took any
steps to right the wrings or punish
the wrongdoers. In a normal state of
society, where men are mindful of hu
man rights, such a hideous condition
of things would have aroused the deep
est indignation, and for the honor of
tl.e common wealth the sternest meas
ures would have ln-en tiken. But th -re
Is no evid 'tic? thai anything was done.
The sufferers were negroes, and the
difference in race and col.ir marked the
difference in treatment of a matter that
would have stirred the state to its
deoths had th y Ir-en whites.
It was rev-aled that the system of
farming out con lets to work mines and
nhntatjons in the South had led to other
abuses rearcflv less heinous. To re
plenish or increase .the supply of such
labor, negroes are arrested and convicted
upon the most trifling pretext. What

the case "of . iwgroos and thoj- unfor
tunate people have no assurance, that
their detention will cease with the ex
piration of their sentences, as they are
liable to be held indefinitely by force.
The.r has been recently exposed a
worse condition of affairs In South Car
olina than in Georgia. The convict
camps of the plantations are full of in
nocent negroes, who were never ac
cused of any crime, newr had a trial,
were never convicted of anything, but
are held in virtu il slavery. They are
caotives as much as any of their race
Were on the African slave ovist In the
palmy days of the slave trade.
The exposure of this crime against
the rights, of humanity came through a
nlanter biuta'.iy killing one of tlr's- In
nocent niiii who tried to ovipi from
b milage. Upon cxaminati n of the mat
ter It was discovered that the murdtred
negro was a captive slave and not a
convict crln inal. Then followed other
revelations of which the grand jury
has boon compelled to take cognizance.
It is rrvved that in South Carolina
has grown up a syst m of labor co;;
tracts with negroes and that these con
tracts are muje assignable. A planter
in one county maks a number of these
contracts, and when work is slack he
st Us the contract? to another, perhaps
a considerable .iUtatuo away, and un-1-ss
th conti-iet m'giws gi away to
their new mister th y are arr sted and
charged with breach of contract, which
is treated as a felony. Of course con
viction fellows, and the unfortunate ne
groes are sentenced to the convict
camps.
In no other civilized state on earth
is the violation of a civil contract treat
ed as a felony. Nowhere else $ a labor
font rae t made assignable and treated
as a conveyance of the person of the
laborer to any master who is willing to
buy him.
It is a violation of every constitutional
right of free men, and is a stain upon
the s'ate and section where the practice
urevails. The existence of such a sys
tem is a commentary' upon the profes
sions of Senator Tillman, who assumes
to teach the North its duty to its labor
ing population.
When the truth is known about the
practices in Mississippi and Alabama
they will be found as nefarious as those
of South Carolina. It may soon be
proper to begin running the underground
railroad again to rescue innocent men
from this slavery of the convict camps,
