of the people of the etate of Ala
bama as well, in observing. J
"Senior senator from Alabama.!
the honorable, J. Thomas Heflin!
has seriously reflected on and
maligned the state he has been

statement that a senator of the)
1'nited States would be tarred and,
feathered by Alabamans should' he;
come to Alabama and speak hisj
sentiments as spoken in the sen-;
ate of the United States. I
"Alabamans are a liberty lov-i
ing.free from prejudice people. j
and here a senator from the state)
of Arkansas or ny other state in ;
the Union may safely speak hi?;
views, more especially if those
j-entiments he in favor of religion?
tolerance and freedom, for which
the constitution of the United
States pledged."
