No People Ever Great who were NotLaw Loving

One great tendency in the Souththat we need to guard against is thetendency to take the*law into onrown hands. No lynching nor anyother form of mob violence is everjustifiable. You may hearsort of excuse for it, but you mayalways be sure that there arestronger reasons against it than forit.

We work through the day to layup some sort of property for thefuture, and at night we lay downin peace to sleep, and only becausewe kuow in both cases that law inAmerica is usually strong enoughto protect both our lives and theproperly we try to accumulate

Remember, then, that every timeyou tolerate any form of mob vio-lence or lawlessnes, you weakenthat respect for law on which allpublic peace and security must rest.

Lynching, night-tiding, white-ca«ping--all these things let downthe gap for reckless men to kill andplunder, and no Southern farm bovshould ever countenance any ofthem. **

Right now, for instance, whilethe South is beut upon the task ofdeveloping a sober citizenship, thework fs made difficult by lawlessmen who too often have the sym-pathy ot other men who ought toknow better. Whatever the citiesmay do, however, the farmingpeople of the South are going tostand for curbing the evil of intem-perance, and this means that thecountry boys will have clearerheads, stronger bodies, and will behappier and more successful menthan wouldotherwise be possibleRaleigh (N.
