THE TRUTH TOLD N NOBLE " uEDs.-oald Hester
Clyner in the senate of Pennsylvania last winter,
when a republican speaker predicted war of races
as consequence Of refusing votes to the blacks:
ask the senator now when that hour coaues, which
side will he be on? Will he be with his own brethren,
or will he be with those whom he, and those who
Bth him, have taught to do that very thiug2 WIZ
you be found fighting against blood Of your own
blood-against your own little ones-or will you
rghtfuly stand where you and others who teach your
doctrines ought to stand-bchind those whom you
and your damnable doctrines have driven to their
own destruction? There is where you ought to stand
and where you belong. But tell you that against
you will be the great heart, white though it may be,
Of this nation. And when that war Of races comes,
woe be to those who brought it about Shall regret
it but before God and before the country, you and
ali others who preach those doctrines will be held re-
sponsible for IT, History will point you out, and
history will be put repeating itself when those deeds
are done.
