THE SOUL.
(By VIM. Pickens)

The politician in Washington at
tempts to lynch the Negro civilly and
politically; the man at home in Texas
attempts to lynch him with a rope.
The one lynches him in soul, the
other in body. If where the Negro
is concerned, the senator respects no
law, human or divine, as one of them.
said, then the lynching of the Negro
is the most logical thing in the
country"

The barbarous lynch law tradition

CARELESS of the risk of getting them
