Lodge Turns Turtle
Immediately after publication i'll the

Fault Is Republicans
The colored people will not be de-
ceiyed by appearances. They can see
and they knoa tie actual ght was
made by the Southern Democrats
against the Bill rather than by the Re
pablicans in its behalf. The Southern
Democrats roared like a lion and the
Republicans lay down like scared

ridge were sincere and earnest, but
outside of the support he received
from Senator Willis, Senator New and
Senator Edge. not a Republican Sen
ator opened his nou. in actual sup

Senators displayed no particular in

that the colorcd people will especially
