Endorsement Of Crime.

Il am for my friends right or
wrong" is the sentiment that has
brought our country 70 what ii Is.
Kinship should be made blessing,
but here it has been made the
greatestcurse Many people think
it right to stand by d relative or.
friend no matter what he has done.
1t is as wicked for ones friends To-
violate the law as for his enemies.
I'm endorsing a friend in crime, We
simply encourage him to continue,
and this is usually the result. If
relatives and friends would give d
young man TO understand that he
need expect no help from them
when he gets into trouble, he will
be very careful how he conducts
himself. The opposite course has
had much to do in making almost
every criminal in the land. As
long as this is done we will have
trouble in the country. Nearly all
of the families here have large re-
lationships, and the evil is greater
on that account. We believe the
people are beginning to realize
both the situation and the remedy.
They are beginning to see that
there is a remedy, and they are
ready 20 apply it. The bloodshed,
the incendiary fires, the violence
and intimidation which they have
so long suffered has become q bur-
den too great to be borne, and they
are rising up determined to endure
it no longer. May they stand firm
in their decision.-Jackson Hustler.
