he is failure as a preserver Of lawi
We went way over in France and left
some of our best men over there in
order to cheek brutality and now what
should be done at homei
l am rot fault finding this week,
but there are just some questions in
my mind that cannot answer them
myself, and would like 10 have them
answered in some way. To pick up the
paper and see where a man has been
barbaeued, another lynehed, and an
other shot down, 1t Is heart touching,
and if fellow was far from God and
had his mind of of Jesus Christ, he
would just euss and euss until eussing
would take down its sign. But / am
thankful that l stick close TO the
throne, and viii have to do so for some
time TO come, for was so near the
end of my trail until l got in the hand
of DR.. Conrad, that will just have TO
spend lots of my time praising and
thanking God. The devil is around
and about me as big as the white house
itself.
Speaking of the white house, Senator
Warren G. Harding will move there
next month, and we are looking for
ward TO his going with pleasure. We
helped him to get the biggest vote that
man has ever received since we left
British rule. 1 have faith in him, and
his party has spoken out on lynehing,
and now that they have the power, let
her 60. We are not looking for too
much, but we do want that which is
reasonable and Just. He can take a
stand as bold as that of Governor
Beckett, of North Carolina. who is a
Democrat, and Governor Morrow of
Kentucky, a Republican.
Speaking of Democrats, l am re-
minded that there are some things
about them that I admire to the core
They are not hypOerits when it come:
10 me, but speak night out. When
President Wilson, went to the White
House, he showed that he admired ouI
people, that he was our friend, and he
did not fail to show it. Now just lei
me name a few of the ways W. H
Lewis, was an assistant attorney gen
eral, and the President thought he was
working too hard and was entitled to q
rest, and told him to take rest. He
told Mr.. Napier, the same thing; ther
he told Ralph Tyler TO rest, and sai'
about as much TO Henry Lincoln John
son, and he has been told himself nov
to take a rest from his labors. He viii
not retire a popular man, and the rea
son l am not here TO say this week
He may find him a place yet in the
League of Nations, but let US wait an(
see. He will remain in Washington.
For my people, am not asking TO
this appointment or tina appointment
tbut 1 do want that lynching shall have
a black eve and that it be, consigned
TO he'll and put in charge of some o.
those who advocated it and are nov
serving the devil But Jet me not ge
off and say hellish things. Life is to-
