unless there was some good reason for
it? There is good reason. 1t Is
that such relations between the races
would lead to intermarriage, misce-
genation, and the production of a
hybrid race, inferior to The whites,
mentally, and to the blacks, pnysi.
cally. Such an admiXture would
mean the desredation, and ultimate
extinction, of the Anglo-SaXon in the
South.
This is a good and sufficient reason
for the universal prejudice in the
South against social equality with the
Negro.
Thus fortified, it is no longer preju-
dice. but becomes a sacred sentiment,
a firm conviction. an inviolable in
stinct, fixed habit of nature. These
uivlnely implanted motives are
arrayed as armed sentries at the gates,
to guard the sanctity of the home, the
purity Of blood, the just pride of the
superior race. Such halloWed feel,
ings, shared by whole people, cannot
be violated with impunity. They
should be respected, and especially by
the Chief Magistrate. They were
respected by President Mckinney, ana,
for the most part, by his predecessors.
Mr.. Roosevelt wrote life Of Oliver
Cromwell. Let him learn from his
own took that that great ruler dared
not disregard the prejudices of the
people. Let him study Burke's
"Speech on Cancellation with A merica'
and see how that illustrious statesman
counselled the English government
nies. Let him hear Burke declare that
widespread opinions must be held tc
have great weight, and that he could
not "frame an Indictment against a
whole people"
In maintaining its position on this
social question, the South oReys the
instincts of nature. These instincts
speak to her inmost heart with the
commanding voice Of God.

State. The burden Of constructing
and maintaining good roads must not
fall upon any particular, class, ana
while the work of road-building is g.
practical necessity, there Is also an i'm
perative requirement in providing the
ways and means for constructing roads
upon an equitable andjust basis. This
can be ascertained by discussion and
demonstration, and hence the pro
pfiety of organizing Good Roads assoc

practical road-building. Both OF these
