THE GREAT REFUSAL"

The charge of "cowardice" brought
against the Mayor of Chicago because
he refused to preside at the Tillmar
charity lecture" in Chicago has moth,
ing to do with the merits of the case
This Mayor Dunno has shown IN his
explanation. Senator Tillman is at
tempting Systematically and in his
own peculiar ways to force himself on
the attention of the whole country; not
as a Senator from South Carolina, not
as a representative of any Southern
State or of any State or of the Amer
lean mind of the United States, but as
an open advocate of mobs and lynch
ing.
The worst form of cowardice is that
which refuses to trust civilization and
the methods of civilization Tillman has
made this great refusal" His appeal
IS openly and boldly to barbarism and the
methods of barbarism. No one who has
the courage of the conviction that civ
lization can be trusted can take sides
with him or even appear to do so.-St
