THE LOGICAL RESULT.

In fact, I we'll remember, that some
OF this very type confessed as much
on the stump, in appealing to the black
man for his vote,> but added that they
had repented and would use the,
knowledge on behalf OF the Negro.
If one Of the results Of President
Harding's advice manifcsts Itself in
filling up the ranks of the Republican
party in the south with the worst. clio
ments in tho Democratic party, then
thereby the eXigencieH will welcome
into the ranks Of Democracy just that
kind OF conservative. and reliable,
force as would assist the quality and
substantial white men of the South,
III the Interpretation OF such high
ideals as would conduce to the best
welfare OF all the people, both black
and white. There is no reason to be in
despair. The darkest hour is before
the break of day; and some us believe
that "day-break" is near at hand.
Faithfully, your old friend, and
journalistic co-workcr,
