OK NEGRO
TROUBLE"
IS FEARED
Hominy, Okla., Oct. 23.—The re-
cent breaking up of a negro dance
near here causes fear that the old
feeling against the blacks will be
revived, a possibility that is deplored
by cotton raiBers, who plan to use
the few negroes as pickers. The
dance was visited by a crowd of
white men, who, after some trouble,
drove all the blacks away.
Several months ago all negroes
were driven from Hominy, and the
house In which one negro family
lived was dynamited.
