THE PRESIDENT.
We, the T. P. S. C. E. and Bible School Convention of the Colored
Christian Church, State of Texas, by way of appreciation of the interest

manifested in us as part of this great nation by its President as sot
forth in his recent proclamation conderming mob law, unjust discriminatio

and all prejudices inconsistent with demooratic government, beg to offer
the following resolutions that your attitude toward this great social dis-

order comes at a time when it can be most highly appreciated by the race
and the nation. It is calculated to go a long ways in checking this very

undemoeratic practice. Every section of this country endorees every word
you said and conmends the very high stand taken by the nation's President.

Respectfully submitted,

I. C. Smith, Chairman,
V. D. Pratt,
