The position taken by Senator
Franklin, opposing a second hearing
of the difference between President
Hardy and the student body of the A.
& NJ. college, is well taken Mr..
Franklin SAYS:
Z see no necessity whatever for
a legislative investigation. There
must be Capitalization of authority in
our State institutions, and if the
legislature is to jump into an investi-
CATION every time the heads of one of
these institutions discharge a faculty
member or employee, we viii have a
pretty state of affairs. Personally
/ believe the matter should be
dropped"
Further, the trouble has been in
vestigated and settled by the authori-
ties which the Legislature itself con-
stituted, and unless evidence of gross
unfairness in the adjustment exists,
the Legislature should give no further
heed to the matter.

Rev. Hewitt, pastor of the First
Baptist church at Columbus, Miss.
preached a sermon in that city, last
Sunday which resulted in getting
himself summoned before the grand
iur.7. The sermon was all right, only
it held up TO the moral gaze of his
congregation the hideous sins that
exist in that town, and, probably. in
all other towns of its size. The grand
jury was not after the preacher, but
was seeking information about the
sinful institutions that he preached
about. Rev. Hewett has done a great
work in Columbus and his fearless at
titude last Sunday, doubtless, makes
evil doors tremble.

a fair President, but is neither promi-

Gated TO be elected.

KNIGHT ISSUES ADDRESS TO VOTERS
Democratic Nominee for Governor Tells the People of

of my election, shall be the firm policy
OF the executive, during my incumbency

a moral crime, for those charged with Of

what is commonly called political ma
chine, TO perpetuate themselves in pow
