COMPARES BOOKER T. TO BRYAN
Boston Pastor Asks Hearers to Be-
lieve In Educator.

The Rev. Herbert 8. Johnson, pas
tor of the Warren Avenue Baptist
Church, during his sermon on The
Assault on Booker T. Washington,
declared his belief in the falsity OF
the charges brought against DR.
Washington in New York.
He eulogized Mr.. Washington, say
ing that he is the recognized leader
of the colored race the world over
and is as great an orator as William
Jennings Bryan.

the combination Of moral, literary
and industrial education" said the
pastor, yet in spite Of >this If you
believe he was ever drunk or spoke
insultingly to a woman you would
never wish to hear him again. Sin
means destruction Of influence

lieve he is absolutely innocent. II a
man has led an upright life for more
than 20 years you should believe the
testimony Of those years. Has he
not a right to ask you to do what
will ask you tonight-to believe that
he is q good man?
"Who is the man who brings these
charges? If the newspaper reports
are true, he has wronged his own
wife and child. There are a great
many people here in Boston who will
believe that Mr.. Washington is a bad
man. and they are of that class
which Is continually looking fol-
something rotten, and that class will
believe whatever is said about any
man or woman in q community.
