p.,oon said General Taylor, st the
..,tle Of Buena Vista. And so we
= now to Captain Teddy, "a few
more niggers to Offices up north and a
s.w more to our southern postofices.
~ The whole hos while you are at it.
/ NJ Kiuley gave you g starter by ap-
I no;ntipg a negro over g white com
] muoity at H%ogansville, and another
:, Athens, the cultured college city
u the South but he got alarmed and
.ook the back track. It was just ouch
. case as you have now in Mississippi
d :, Indianola, for the people at Hogans-
lille went / mile to get their mail
,,tber than take it from a negro-a
q a;,tv politican." Teddy has done no
rorse on the p~ostofice line. The
rostof6ces are the peoples not the
n,esident's. They arc almost as near
n MS and as sacred as is our preacher
4 Or our family physician. No greater
4 insult, no greater outrage upon our
q rights, could be %perpetrated by a
tyrant than to appoint a negro as post
master in q white community. The
difference between Teddy and MI.
Mckinley is that the latter played
Sol for a while and quit, but Teddy
keeps it up and grows more defiant Of
southern opinion and southern indig-
y us.ion. Sometimes providence afliots
The people with a fool, and sometimes
q With a knave to tyrannize over them,
hut it looks like VIC are to have both
fool and knave in the same person.
sBut ".he Lord loveth whom he chas-
teneth."
81 A medical friend from over the line
writes me that he has a growing sense
b justice and abounds in sympathy
Dor our lopg-suffering people, but that
Eeddy's deformity does not come from
Is original sin or total depravity, but
& |rom physical defects in his anatomy,
s83nd says:
II have studied his Uranium and
Ind that he has too small a cerebel-
Jun. His occiput goes straight up
rom the medulla oblongata and meets
83he sinciput at right angles and leaves
DO room for moral attributes. A per-
bsndicular back head like Teddy's in
@Qicates a fighting, bear-killing, athletic
3nd foolhardy man. The aphryon and
3he messiah plane. are cramped
bgether and Teddy's back head is q
Perpendicular plane without hill or
}ale. A man with q very small cere-
33ellum is peculiar, and it will be found
p inspection Of the sinoiput OF fore
lead that the nose and cheek bones
sherally rost on an enormous jaw
3|one, or, as you might say, the jaw
3one Of an ass. If Teddy had lived
Samson's day he would have re-
Piced to have been his armour-bearer
hd carried his jawbone some."
Just so-exaotly-not only 30, but
so. I understand it all now, and
aank my medical friend. The lack
cerebellum and medulla oblongata
nd occiput has made Teddy crazy
pout bears and negroes and other
Jack woolly things. But 1 should
Re to know what kind of o cerebellum
1it fellow Crumpaoker or Stump
Poker or Dirtdauber has got, that
3pkes him 80 vencmous toward our
ople. At Teddy's request he has
produced a resolution to have q COM
3ttee appointed to vis1 Indiauols
u see what u people are doing to
colored postmistress. OF, course,
Will be appointed chairman Of the
nuiittee, but I'll wager ten dollars
don't go. He is nothing but o gas
and q coward. Mr.. r Thompson

na and see how the negroess on his
plantation we're getting on. He
\ invited and accepted the invita-
/, but he did not come. He was
}ald. And that is what discourages
about any growing sense of justice
fValling among the common people
North. If they are getting any
pder why do they send such a malig-
y man to congress? Hating the
pth seems to be the stock in trade
most Of the northern members.
