sumes that he voices the thought Of

cation hes deep significance. 1t Illus
trates the negro understanding of the
fact that aside frem the determination
that the white man shall rule in poll
tics and public affairs, there is no feel
ing against the negroes as race in the

ties. Against the individuals who yio-
late certain defined and,established laws
feeling Is intense and punishment is
directed relentlessly and quickly. The
method IL not only an instinct, but n
policy. But considering the races In
the aggregate, there is n where nj the
South the bitterness of white against
black of which we see occasionally
