Did Johnson Ever Meet Good Women?.

Jack Johnson, the pugilist, made the assertion the other day that he “could get any white woman. ’’ That was a very careless remark. It makes o<ne think that the negro i> casting a reflection on every white woman in the country. Not so; but it is a sad reflection on white women that he has had the privilege of mingling with. It is also a reflection on pugilism and the class that go with it. The baser element have a tendency to class everyone with them. The better people of this country are not found at the prize fight. Johnson is not acquainted with good people. ' - The feeling has grown so great against Johnson for his compromising utterance that it is likely that he will be driven from Chicago. It may even be possible that someone will try to kill him. The bruiser has been carried around on the shoulders of a certain class of white citizens until he actually beliewes he is better than any man or woman on earth. Yet, there is no reason to kill him; neither should he be killed for his utterance or his color.—Royal Center Record.
