the political history OF the state of Mis-
sissippi. touching here and there on
national politics and ending with a
! conservative statement OF President
Tafts grave errors in dealing with the
Negro question. the author has illu-
mined in most effective fashion some
OF the most interesting pages Of Amer
lean political history.
The recital Of the story Of recon
structiOn IS IL parts dramatic and In
parts tragic. The strategy Of designing
politicians worked an appalling trag-
edy in the life Of the ambitious Negro
leader during the reconstruction pc
riOd and especially i'm 1874. when the
radical Democrats came iiO power
throughout the southern site. The
conditions described - viv.,"y were
lamentable, illustrating the @vsul ca
lamities suffered by the weaker ele-
ment Of the body polite at the hands
Of the stronger.
But Major Lynch IS not Il pcssimist.
He Is a man with a great vision. He
has seen the dawn of a new age when
each mans good shall be all mems
aim" We OF this age may be a little
apathetic about such matters as are
set forth in the book. but it would be
well for us to read over and over again
what this wise observer has written
concerning our past. The book pre-
sents facts as the author has witnessed
them. His study Of the political situa-
tiOn is both analytical and intensive.
He Is a student Of psychology. His Is
the advocacy Of civil and political
rights Of all citizens.
Major Lynch entered public life
while quite a young man. 1t was in
1869 that Governor Ames appointed
him justice Of the peace In the city Of
Natchez, Miss. He showed splendid
executive ability and was soon pro-
NOTED by the people to a seat In the
state legislature. His has been a bril-
liant career. There Is hardly a Negro
In the entire country whose past life
has been so closely connected with the
reconstruction period and who Is more
highly esteemed In the councils Of the
Republican party today as Is John r.
Lynch. While he was serving in the
national house OF representatives be
was a leader Of powerful influence.
He was once honored by the national
Republican convention as temporary
chairman. he has served as auditor
Of the United States treasury and pay
master In the United States army.
Because Of his close contact with the
great leaders in the Republican party
and with the problems in political life
for the past forty years Major Lynch
Is well qualified to write intimately
concerning the subject treated in his
book.
There is no way Of accounting for the
wonderful sagacity and wisdom mani
Tested by our people during the recon
structiOn period. How they learned 50
quickly to conceive and plan Iegisla-
don Of such farreachlng importance is
q puzzle. but that they legislated wise
" the laws Of many Of the southern
states do attest The administration Of
coIOred officials in the state Of Missis-
sippi, whatever may be said to the con-
trary, was manly. II must be remem-
bered that the race had no historians
to record fits acts: It's critics were its
enemies.
