MRS. EESwoBrHY
Spoke in very interesting manner for
ten or fifteen minutes, saying that she
had been indicted By a Grand Jury of
her neighbors among whom she had
lived for eighteen years, bat did not
know what she had done that VAS
wrong. II know | have worked for the
good of my people and my country.
Years ago while bringing up nay family
| worked as a loyal hearted woman, be-
cause wanted my childrs to live in s
free land. where no curse of slavery
existed. feel tonight the same inter
est, bat for time bl eek has been put
in my pathway. / have no fears, fer |
believe there is a God of justice who
reigns on high, and l expect to see VIC
tory yet perehed upon our banner. l
have never made an incendiary speech.
| know there ia an irrepressible conflict.
Wages are being cut down. Prison
bars have no terror for men when their
children are starving. Hunger will
drive men through bolts and bars. l
thought by sending out the Chinese it
would ease matters up little. They
call me dynamiter, but l never sdvo-'
Gated violence. when | came here there
were no chinese. The Indians were
here, and when a poor old sq1av comes
to my door with pitchwood, tell her to
come in, bat never Chinamsn. shall
thank you for what you do for my
brothers who are out of work. l don't
ask you Ito give one cent to defend me.
| sm proud TO be indicted for doing
your work.
