SATURDAY OCTOBER 15. 1887.
The Philadelphia News says that
a certain physician ‘‘wears a pair of
shoes made of the hide of a Negro. ’
Bishop Turner of tho Southern
Recorder every now and then
shouts out through the columns of
his journal a good word for the
uiuse of prohibition.
It is said that Miss Mary A.
Todd of Darien recently deceased
has bequeathed to the Baptist.
Methodists and Episcopal churches
SIOO,OOO.
Bishop Turner says that any
colored man who has a soul in him
and do not procure that fine vol
ume entitled “Men of Mark” is lit
erally a fool.
The Columbus Meg enger says
in its last issue “That the Negro
should pct stay in any party as a
ina-’s. He should divide in poli ics
as other race.”
That Staid obi journal the Chris
tian Recorder is a welcome visitor
to our sHnct'im. T.ie telling blows
that it puts in defence of the race
warns us that Editor Lee is still
at the helm.
Editor Chase, of the Washing
ton Bee every now and then nets
off hi< base. Thi< time he pan-e<
to r flect on the good name of Col.
Fred Grant, and only because he i
h’s fuller’s -on. Hold up old boy
before yon become exasperated.
The colored members ot the L*g
ifilature are always at their post and
their feeble voles are alw ys re
corded !’> favor of right that is the
result of Union and harmony in the
Republican conn ties within the
party.
Col. W. A. Huff, of Bibb Conn
tv in his recent speech before the
Legislature on the convict lease
question handled some parties with
gloves off, —would to God there
were more Huffs in that body, then
humanity might at least have a
chance for justice and right.
The Atlanta Defiance save “1 he
colored people can hardly afford to
drink whiskey as a luxury or a ne
cessity.” What causes Bra. Davis
and Burnett to come to such con
clusions on this late day we do not
know. Have the “old organ been
converted.”
Thf editor of the Cleveland
Globe who is so heartily support
ing the Democratic candidates in
Ohio, was defeated by a large ma
jority for a position on their coun
ty ticket.
Well bro. Jones we thought you
know that that would be the result.
You can bray for them but you
can't pull the ribbons.
The Nhw York World in its is
sue • October 10th says:
After four years of existence the Freeman
the organ of the colored people in that city
has suspended.
w • regret to hear this. Editor
Fortune no doubt has labored hard
to make hi- p.iper u success but
the policy he had laid out could not
by no means su'Cced. It was not in
accord with the sentiments of the
ma s>-h <>f onr race, his brill tan I pen
should have been used for othe<
and m.»rc benitjceni purposes th in
to divide our people—that he

I ihat friendship. The rights of the
i. Negro was always vindicated
through its columns and thus we
regret its suspension.
The following is from the Boston
Herald:
•‘Working boys and girls in New York
ne“d not go uneducated with twenty eight
evening schools open in that city. Where
there’s a will there’s away for boys and
girls to lift themselves, mentally, above the
ignorant classes, but it requires strength of
purpose, after working all day. to buckle
down to books of study. Those who take
advantage of the evening school have good
stuff in them.”
What the Herald said of New
York is applicable to this city and
! we regret to see such apparent in
difference among our working boys
and girls, there should at least be a
dozen night schools in successful
operation in this city. There is
need for them.
Quite an animated discussion
between several prominent young
men occurred on one of our street
cars on Thursday evening. The
subject in debate seemed to have
I een; was Dr. Corson right in his
Itcfure delivered some time ago “as
tn the Negro dying out.” That
subject was thoroughly ventilated
some time ago through our columns
and the fallacious position in
which the Dr. had placed
himself was clearly shown.
Our young men should become
thorough readers of their race’s
paper, then the necessity of
these unseemly debates in ears and
<>n the street corners would not
o ’cur. This journal has time and
time again offered ‘as one of the
gentlemen aptly remark—the use of
its columns to our friends to discuss
•any proposition that tend to ele
vate our people, or to resent any
improper attacks made upon them
’/ill they avail themselves of the
opportunity.
