PAGE TWO--" r~ :? THE 'OLD GRAY" AE E. I'HILI They Decide With Every Side" \ It has been u serious question with J of composing.a jury to decide an issue] or determine the iruflc or in-noeencel of an individual when t\vo arguments are to be made. As to whether the average Negro can ascertain facts fioin one's speech and bring them aeross another and weigh them all. ? then decide the case upon thg merit of facts from both, is doubtful to me. 1 have been in general conferences associations, synods, grand lodges, pop? -tthrr?meetings.?college?meeting?and almost every -kind of meetings held among Negroes. 1 have heard questions before these bodies that brought forth heaty discussions and debates. And almost invariably the last speachildren.; When one side is being presenteiLthey y-elj out "that's right, he's ,. right, talk boy:"- And soon as the speaker concludes the.y are ready to "e render decision in favor of that side. Hut *\VTU'i! nh- ""opposite side-Is"" feeing "" picnriuvu mi: same crowu yens again "that's right, he . is right, talk boy." An?Twhen that side concludes, if there is not a third ?<i<le, thop Thesp'fnnit or " last side, is the winning side. A Ne gro jury usually decides with the-last side they hear. That accounts for the failure of their churches to try . . . anvh expel| members. That there is a slight prejudice in a white jury when - ' it comes to Negroes may or may not , he true. Some'go so far as to say that a white jury goes in the tsrix fully de cided, when a white man is onvolved ~ ^against a-eolored man. But I have seen different right here in the south and in the city of Columbia. Thereforeothers cSti do as they wTJl or " ?? may,?but?when I am arranged hefore the courts of. justice if my side want- every Negro juror to stand a- '! side for his division will always' he in favor of the last side. . Not Principals hut Principles Whenever one undertakes11't6 discuss principles, it Js crftenof^natJf.ued "US" exposing prineipali-.;' fi'veh in the = ministry if one dares to sneak iii the right the .conclusion is "he -is after j -somebody.--: The agitating ,ip.i option j .should be .."is he right or wrong?" But ...f t hilt th admonition giv-1 # en is "keep .quiet, you will huiT your-| self." "Now there"is any quantity of j wholesome advice;_in thcv statement.
