ways of therlpeutical pharmacology"

disaffection emanating from southern
towns. We consider them largely H.
belous Of the colored people Of the
south. The southern Negro is never
found in bomb plots and similar con.

tenancing rebellion. Should there be
such thing as an attempt by Ger

sons will be promptly handed over to
the authorities and given the full pen

in some isolated cases the seed of dis

fruit we have no doubt that scores of
loyal American Negroes will be on
