Just let out ''best friends" of the
South alone when it comes to making
the punishment fit the crime when
Afro Americans are implicated. In
the district court of Cherokee county,
Texas, last Saturday, Allen Brown,
convicted of alleged criminal assault,
was sentenced to one thousand years
in the penitentiary Under the law
the jury could not impose a death SEN
tence. At the time of his arrest
Brown narrowly escaped being lynch
ed, so we suppose he ought to be
thankful for that.

From the reports which come from
a church conference in Forsythe, Ca,
it would seem that some of it's men,
bers did their best to prove that some
of the charges that are laid at our
doors are not without foundation.
When men put on the livery of heaven
to serve the devil in, and their cloven
feet are discovered, they should be
expelled from, any
religious organization. They are GER
tainly not only stumbling blocks in
the way of sinners, but of the entire
race. We should frown upon wrong
doing whenever and wherever found,
either in the pulpit or the pew.

Ter of Buffalo. "That clause was put
into the discipline in 1872" said the
venerable bishop, "and it was one OF
the biggest plumbers ever made by the
church." There are quite number OF
