Mr.. Spight, (dem. Miss made sem
sational speech on the negro question.
The South, he said, should be left to
deal with the negro, unhampered by
northern interference. ave sometimes
kill the niggers," he said, but only for
a hideous crime, and not because they
want to work" az am against lynch
law" he said, "under some conditions.
He advocated the lynching Of negroes
and even their burning at the stake for
brutal and hideous attacks on women.
These human brutes, he declared, put
themselves outside the pale of the
law and they should be put out of the
way, not by bringing the woman i1to
court and making her recite her terrors
but by the men Of the community,
moved by righteous indignation. "The
negro is only fit to wait on a table and
not to dine with white people as the
North DESIRES" he exclaimed. "When
the negro attempts to approach the
southern man on terms OF social
equality" he said, "the door is shut
| tight and fast"

the White House, had done NOR,
to give the negro proverted idea OF
his importance ard his near approach u
social equality than anything that hai
been done for the past ten years.
"The more they are put on socia
equality" he said, "the more dsngerou,
becomes their position and sure dealt
by violence will overtake them sooner
later"
Mr.. Robinson attacked subsidies t
railroad companies for carrying tn

and blot on the postoffice appropriate
bill.
Mr.. Pierre, attacked the Bristow n

piOn MOtOr-FOIIower.
For the first time in his career as a
professional bicyclist Bobby Walthour
will participate in races on the Sab
bath when he starts in the races to
be run with the European champions
in Berlin to-day. The announcement
that Walthour will participate in
Sunday races will be a great surprise
to his friends here
After his first few successes Bobby
made a resolution that he would new
er race, or train, on the Sabbath, and
managers have found it impossible to
make him break this resolution until
now, when he has consented to ride.
This intelligence was conveyed in a
letter to friend here. Bobby writing
from Paris said that he was never in
better shape in his life, and expected
to keep up the record that he had
commenced. He says barring accidents
he does not expect to lose a race while
on foreign soil.
AS soon as he finished first in the
six-day race Walthour signed a con-
tract to go to France and ride a Sc
ries of six races. He had already rid
den two of these, and won them both.
One was at five miles from the cham
pion of Europe, Contenent, and the
other was from bangle, who holds the
hour distance record.
Walthour is now a great favorite in
gay Paree. Newspaper clippings en-
closed in letter here speak of him as
the great American flyer" Mrs Wal
thour will probably reach Berlin in
