[Edward Carey] Walker (text of letter to the Twentieth Century, which begins, "You say: 'Most of the lynchings at the South are done in retribution for violations of white women by negroes.' As a matter of fact, according to the most reliable statistics, only about one-third of the negroes lynched are charged with rapes. And of these many are run down on mere suspicion, while many others are the victims of race prejudice which forbids members of different races to voluntarily associate"); one-column "The Other Side" by Hugo Bilgram (which begins, "Although the motto 'Hear the Other Side' still adorns the title page of the Twentieth Century, I see but one side of the Homestead trouble presented"); "The Advantages of Poverty (?)" by Mary R. Haymes; "The 'Coming Man'" by Clinton Loveridge; Correspondence; news and commentary column Science and the Useful Arts; news column In and Out of the Church; column The Working of the Yeast (quotes from various sources; i.e., "Take the platforms adopted at Minneapolis and Chicago, mix them up, and there is not a man in Jackson county that can untangle the mess and get each item under the proper head" - from the Kansas City Midland Mechanic"); column Our Weekly News-Letter. A complete issue; former owner's name to upper right corner of front cover; covers light to moderately soiled, particularly along edge areas; light cover wear; tiny corner chips; pages age-toned.
