CoIored Brethren Stirred Up Over Question Of Hell

missions and the colored pastors here
beg to enter protest against is abol-
ishment.
Others may discard the Old time hon
ored hell, but as for the aforesaid pas
tors they propose to hold right on to
1t. They reaf1rm their undivided be-
lief in the hell Of the fathers; the
same old hell that they have taught
their docks of, and that is so hot,
that il colored brother gets in ten
thousand miles Of it he will smell
like wet dog on hot stove.
Some of the younger members of
the various congregations were in
clined to harken unto the superior
judgment Of the Bible Students asso-
citation, and were little inclined 10
turn willing ear to the cooling news.
So gratifying was the Intelligence to
them that they were getting real
cheerful, and there was some talk Of
holding a regular jolliflcation over the
event, In which everybody would be in
v1ted to cut loose and have a good
time" and when doubtless many re-
spectacle persons would have got all
lit up in honor Of the occasion.
The pastors held their meeting, how
ever, and decided to put crtmp in
all this wild Joy. On the following
Sunday, therefore, at the sundry
churches all over the city, the colored
brother who has been congratulating
himself that he could, when he got
ready, lay depredating hands upon any
unprotected chicken roost without fear
Of having at some vague time in the
future to wrap his system around a
few gallons Of molten lava while
splashing around in a lake of burning
birthstone, got a rude jar that upset

SOUNDS THE KEYNOTE,

Upon the solid rock of the
rights of the individual as grant
ed by the Constitution, the Re-
publican party builds it's struc.
ture of optimism. The Demo-
cratic party, on the other hand,
in the opening sentence of it's
address to the electorate, be-
trays it's occasional quality by
denying the right Of Congress, a
right again and again confirmed
by the Supreme Court, to estab-
Iish protective duties for the ben
eft of American industries. It de-
clares as false the vital issue of
the constitutional liberties of the
individual. Such liberties are
now assaulted by those who advo-
cate the overthrow of the inde-
pendence of the judiciary. 1t
would leave the Individual de-
fenseless in the protection of
those rights declared inaIienable
under the Constitution.-Charles
d. Hilles, chairman of the Re-
publican national committee.
