You have not been content then IN
your two previous Reconstruction

Southern white men as to enable four
millions of negroes there to govern
them but here in such constitutions

three bills, their real intent and mean
ing, is for all time, so to organize this
government that four millions Of ne.
groes in the Southern States shall
hold a balance of power in the whole

millions OF white people, to counter
act the politically divided voting pop

not less than a million letters were
mailed last year, without signatures,

that the address was totally unintelli-

than a million and halfothers, 1911

it seoms that at least two and a half
million Of mistakes were made, in an
operation which one would think
likely TO enlist the sufficient care of
the writer, the addressing of a letter.

If anything 10 the world will make
a man feel badly, except pinohing his
fingers in the crack of a door, It's un-
questionably a quarrel. No man ever
fails to think less Of himself after it
than before. 1t degrades him in the
eyes of others, and, what is worse,
bluhts his scnsibilities on one hand,
increases the power Of passionate ir-
ritability on the other. The tmth is,
the more peaceably and quietly we
get on, the better for our ncighbors.
In nine cases out of ten, the better
course is, if man cheats you, take
care that nobody will believe him No
matter who he is, or how he missuses
you, the wisest way is 20 let him
alone for there is nothing better than
this cool, calm, and quiet way Of deal
