Nor was the war fought by the North to free the slaves, except as ' on after thought. The principle for which we fought was local self government and three llftbs of thoso who fought had never owned slaves. The slave trade was Introduced by , England, South Carolina and Virginia i wanted to get rid of the slave trade ' before the war with England. After wo had wrested Independence from Old England, New England took up ? the Infamous slave trade. Many of the fortunes, which there have blos j Homed so beautifully in the last half i century have their roots planted deep In the dirty black soil of the slave , trade. Dr. Lodge declared that he would say nothing to disturb the present harmony between sections, but let the record be kept straight. New Eng land abandoned the use of slaves for economic reasons and then opposed it for political reasons, for they did not wish too many Southern men in eongresH. The hypocrisy of It! Now England gathered up the slaves from their home in Africa, sold them to the South, then came down with cannon and rifle to steal them awav from us. The Right to Secede. Did we have the right to secede? That question has been settled so fat as the force and arms Is concerned, but In tits eferpal verities we wen right then ami that principle will be right until Gabriel blows his horn. The 13 colonies were noun 1 to ?ng land, each by an Individual cord, pope having authority over the others. The sword of Washington severed the cords and in the treaty of peace they were recognized ns free and Independ ent State?. In the constitution the Stntes "retained" their "sovereign ty." They sometimes say that Lee was atraitor and that Jackson was a rebel. The text books on constitu tional law at West Point when Pee and Jackson and Davis were cadets there teach l)? that the States had the right to secede, if these men were traitors it was because Jhey were made so by the government \yhl|u (hey were cadets. Noah Webster's dictionary juggled with the words "sovereignty" and "in dependence." In the tlrst edition the definition* were In keeping with the Jdea taught in fin? South. But in the second edit um puMUUed during t ho excitement of J8f>) the meaning had been changed by the ?Northorq editor*. .New Jim; in nil's inconsistency, Was it right Ut recede? In 180:5 when the Louisiana purchase matter was pending and it seemed probable that the South would have additional representation In congress, New Eng land said: "We will go out of the Union If vou take In this new State." Joalah Qulncy said: "it will he the right of .'ill and the duty of some to I prepare for separation amicably if possible, forcibly If necessary." Again when New England Shipping wftH harassed by British maritime, upd New England sailors were pressed Into British service, a Southern presi dent went to war for New England! And then what dirt .Vow England do? She tried to paralyze the arm ol the government, to hamper the progress of the war and some of her sons were in treasonable communication with the enemy. The Hartford conven tion of 1814 would have declared for secession had not the speedy signing of the treaty of peace thwarted their plans. The difference Is this: The South seceded when the nation was strong and not beset from without by n for eign foe. New England threatened to sect-do when a common foe wns weak ening the defenses of the government. In 1845 Texas wanted to come in. Massachusetts again said: "We will secede if you do." And now we wish to God that she had. But 1?', years later when the South seceded the troops from Massachusetts shed the blood of Southern citizens on the streets of Haltlmore for doing the very thing which Massachusetts would have done before. Even Daniel Webster admitted the right to secede. And Just here Dr. Podge slopped to deplore the fact that he had heard in some schools young boys get up and declaim with much gusto Webster's reply to Hayne, when the latter'g matchless oration Is Itself forgotten. White perhaps it may not he so attractive of rhetoric yet It was unanswerable then and no Yankee has lived or will ever live who can answer It. At Capon Springs, Va., In 1851, Mr. Webster made a speech in which he admitted that be was wrong. Dr. ' -"dj.'.e read a few extractions to prove this assertion and commented that In 1830 Mr. Webster was relatively a youngster?at the time of his reply to Hayne?while at Capon Springs, Va., he was old enough to be a statesman. Dr. Ix>dge read some strong extracts from a Northern writer who declared that Mr. Webster's reply to Mr. Uayno was not ah argument but was tlio I grossest kind of Bpeclal pleading and was a skillful defense ot an uncon stitutional Ity: Said Dr. Lodge: "Yankee Bentj ? meat was too strong for us to combat with reasoning. They had the money, they had the armament, they had the ships, and tlfoy won by force." While the North was contending for an uueoust itut ioiiaiity t he South was standing by the bedrock principles. Tiie South was tricked into the Union in the belief that her rights would have been'maintained and then the compact was broken. The South, had as inuoh right to secede as a Northern State and have to take up arms today if she be deprived of rep resentation in Congress. Imperialism and Trusts. All the great wrongs and political infamy of today are the result of the North's denial of the principles for which the South fought. This bastard Imperialism which we exercise over the PhillIppines puts us in the pillory of the world's scorn and has made apostates of a democratic people. We of the South do not believe in this imperialism. We believe in the doo , trine of "the ccuseut of the governed," but the North, which in 1861 was loud voiced for that same principle, now declaims for Imperialism, Again. this Infamous protective traiff could not be levied If there were a strict construction of the constitu tion, Hueh as the South has always de manded. It is on this Iniquitous triff that the vampire trusts feed their putrid verius. ItoOSOVClt's New Ideas. Having paid his respects to the Im perialistic and traft policies to which the nation has been brought by loose construction of the constitution. Dr. Lodge then gave warning of another danger which he sees. A certain man. he said, has just C0JUP back front the .jungles of Africa, where the lions failed to do their duty. With much pomposity and a great flourish of front teeth he poses > as a prophet. He COIUQS with a dlctrliie. which in his bombastic manner and balloon like conceit he calls "the new na tionalism." What Is new is not true and What is true is not new. This "new nationalism" is merely old fed eralism, old contralizntlon of power. old despotism. The man who propounds this perni cious doctrine is a braggart, nnegotis tlcnl demagogue npd f tr-illor. Hloqueutly Dr. Lodge urged that the people should turn their eye.-, ! from him to the man of N?W Jer sey, Wood row Wilson, Southern horn. I true to the old ideals o ft ho South. ; a man who is sure to be governor of , New Jersey and is great enough to gu|de the destines of a nation. Let us be conservative, urged Dr. Lodge. Le us build up the Smith hut do so with prudence and discre tion apd forsaking not the traditions of the old South?love for the law api) (he constitutional rights. With tt beautiful peroration in which lie spoke of the gallantry ot the Confederate soldier, Dr. Lodge concluded his addresu. He declined that his heart was full and he wished to talk of many things, but the hour was growing late and the sun was quite warm and trying on the im mense crowd. He was urged to go on hut brought hjs address to it Close, CLEVER WOMEX, Always Keep Their Hair Fascinating and Free from Dandruff.
