TlLLMAN WOULD TAG 'EM.
Has Scheme to Keep Down the Vicious
Blacks

In a speech on the race problem de-
livered recently Senator B. R. Tillman
declared that the time had come when
the south must act, and suggested the

certificate of good character before
removing from a residence or home,
or before being received into a new
section, and that any person without
such certificates be imprisoned.
This, he admitted, would be placing
great inconvenience on the whites,
who would have to be included in the
law because of the 18th amendment,
but he declared that if the plan or
some peaceable one was not adopted
Immediately the country surely was
