stated by temperaTOB organixa?
tions that should the salons return
to the states -there would bt
so many crirhes committed until
life would hardly be worthy^ living.

Bying For What?
P?/?r>ntlv there have been per
sons killed outright by polieemei
lor what one might consider mer
tnlles. A few day& ago I attend
ed the funeral of a handsom
young man who was shot to deatl
- by a peace officer. The facts giv
tn out in this particular case wer
that he resisted an arrest. It wa
a sad affair to have heard the bit
ter cries that bereaved the family
Our own eyes were bathed wit;
tears. And not further diseussin.
this case but atter all the easies
why out of trouble whe?rwe become
calenders is to submit to the pio
per officals. There is little to b
" gained i n bueking constitute
'. authority. For instant a police
man has been given authority t?
tarry a pistol and a club of whic
both are deadly weapons. The.

its purely no sense to go u,
against such authority with you

upon his skill to conquor- you i
killing is necessary. There is n
. crime in (being arrt .iled lor?manhave
been proven to be innocen
a.ter being taken into custody. I
case of lawless mob I believe a
individual is justified to figh
against it to the very last. Some
times the porper officals all bu

that is the rare exception.,, Ther
is no use to die under any circum

the protection ol" a man's wife an.
children or for the womanhood o
a race. But dying for violation o

An Administration Qrgan
The Palmetto Leader has alway.
welcomed news ol all kind in iti
. columns that promoted peace anc
harmohjT~in church, state and so
. ciety. If a disatisfied individua
- of any denomination desired to ex
presses his grievances by showing
* -the defects of .that respectiv.
church thats strickly against thi
L.fau?r a poncy. mere are papers
that take delight in publishing
slandtrings and other irregulari
ties as related to bishops, ministers
and churches. The Leadei
investigates and s^eks to publish
the true status of things. It states
only the doing of annual confertnces,
associations, aynods conventions,
college commencements and
state meetings political or church.
As chairman of an administration
* publicity committee my duty is to
broadcast the names of -the en?
dorsed persons. The chairman nor
the Palmetto Leader ean prohibit
any man in the delegation from
announcing his candidacy for any
positron he- cieetred in the church.
And in their running for it, they
need not burden the mail with

their cars whistle in tho political
