Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1904.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntroduction: How often in recent years do our morning papers reveal such headings as; " Negro Fiend Lynched,"" Body Filled with Bullets," " Crowd Fights for Pieces of his Clothes". Such an announcement should lead every humane, patriotic, American to do all in his power to fathom, and if possible to help to put a stop both to the fiendish crimes of these brutish wretches and to the inhuman methods so often resorted to for their punishment, methods which not only violate every principle of justice and humanity, but bring disgrace upon our glorious nation. But in searching for the cause of lynching we soon become aware of other phases of the same problem, which if not so sensational are just as serious.The organization that has made the Item available believes that the Item is in the Public Domain under the laws of the United States, but a determination was not made as to its copyright status under the copyright laws of other countries.
