mer pastor. DR.. a J. Carey should
preach the funeral sermon. DR.. Carey
used as a text the 9Th Psalm. What
is man that Thou are mindful OF him,

tbs cAMoUFLAGE AND TYRANNY.

The Jim Crow bill brought up some

risy bristled for an hour or two in
the congress of the United States. The
Negro seems to be the ugly child in
the family Of nations The North called
the South names, and the South said
you are another. They really made
faces at each other for a moment be
cause of this said black child. Fin
ally they shook hands and agreed that
the Jim Crow law was a panacca that
would save the nation of great racial
disturbances. 1t docs not matter a
whit if there be thousands of ladies
and gentlemen among the eolored peo-
pie whose refinement and university
training outranks a hundred thousand

and write and whose greatest pleasure
is felt when a Negro is being roasted
alive, they may ride any where, any

the color of mans skin is more harmful
than bOshevism snarchy, mobocracy

Why is all the noise put upon a

1t is a wholesale eamouhage, that s
all. There isn't any such thing as a

born prejudice that the white race
has got to forget before it can stand
before the white robed Jesus of Naz-
lreth. If there was such a thing as a

would not have in its veins the best

At this point, Governor BrOugh, put
some questions to DR.. Morris, concern
ing himself and his position, of the
questions all were answered in manly
way. The Governor then took a lick
at Jim Crowism as practiced and as
a part of the laws of Arkansas, and
asked DR.. Morris if there was any
complaint about it among the colored
people. To this question, he replied
that the Jim Crow laws were disgrace
full to the south, and should be re-
pealed. He said that it was a back
ward step in civilization. He said
that his people were not anxious to
sit down with white people, and if the
laws were repealed they would be found
seeking their own people, but they did
not like prescription.
No one expected such an answer
from Negro to the Governor, hut it
was given in a spirit of love and frank
ness.
Judge TOney, declared that the state
of Arkansas would never repeal the
law, and some one suggested that it
was a difference of opinions.
Then followed the man who was in

then it was too tender to talk about,
because his dear friend had been
killed. He could not stand TO talk
about it. He said that he did not

killed him, the shooting became gen

could not tell.
