A LESSON FOR ALL.
The Morning News in an editorial
on Wedoeseay attempted to
throw the responsibility of the de
feat of prohibition in Atlanta npon
the colored vote, and argues that
out of the 40i'0 that w registered
i Io vote; prohibition onlv got 500.
I it continue* its laie>*ntatiouß bv
Baying “If one half of the colored
voter- had supported prohibition,
victory would have been with the
prohibitionist.
If ihar is true is it not a lesson
that might yield «Ofn« good to all
natties if propnlv com-idered. I*
la said that two years ago colored
men supported the prohibitionist in
Fulton county end carried it under
promise* from them that their
irhnds would repeal certain obnox
ions laws operating against them,
also that in the making up
of the “political slate” the
Negro should n«t be forgot
ten. hut alas 1 likß “our b--s’
friends’ always do when ••lections
are over the Negro like Rip Van
Winkle, is soon forgotten. The
leaders of parties in our State must
learn that the color d m oi is dady
obtaining knowledge, in fact he is
improving his old time common
sense and when the n’t mpt is
made t<» defraud him of certain
privileges by false promises, he
Beals the fate of that reciprocity of
feeling in thought and action- as
would in other cases naturally xis .
It is ihe workings nt hum «n nature
the world over, and from the d feat
of the prohibitionists in Fulton
conntv the leaders might le >rn a
)e*a<>n that mar be of importance to
their parties in the coming election a
year hence, by a proper treatment
and respect for the colored vote.
It is seldom that we ever have to
chronicle the f ct ol our esteemed
contemporary the Desi ince getting
of its bise, bnt unf<»r , nn»it»»ly this
time it ha*; and that to oppose the
railing of a convention of colored
tnen io this State, our friends ft eblv
attempts to prove the uselessnes
of such a convention bv a long
worded editorial which is c imposed
entfrelv of gnah.
The statement made that the
conven ion assembled in Atlanta
some time ago in the interest of
education was a ‘‘shame to the race*’
and was composed of “coun’y
bo-se*, demagogues and political
hireling-”—if true—is to be re
gretted. but is no reason that colord
men should never again meet in
council »o consult npon matters
that are of vital importance
$•• the lutnre, civil and
political welfare of their whole
race. If that convention w so
composed then for God s>ke help
to m ike the repre notations propos
ed in this one. good cues. There are
plenty of good tried and true men
tn the different counties, men who
are loyaßo their race, and have the
interest of their people at heart;
neither are they ‘’county bosses,
political hirelings or demagogues
out will truly represent the wants
’ and wishes of our whole people. So
lor as Chatham goes the acts of her
representatives in past conventions
held in Atla< ta has always been
free from the courtesies of our
friends “free entertainments,” we
speak for them all. Thev paid as
they went, full price. We regret
with many friends to see our astute
contemporary lose his base and
attempt to deal io dirty flings and
inuendoes to oppose a move
whose whole object is to advance
and better the condition of our race.

The following from the New Or
leans Christian Advocate of the
24th instant will be read with
pleasure by Prof, Morse’s many
friend-:
Prof. Samuel B. Morse, A. M,. • graduate
of Atlanta University, Clans 1879, and a
citicen of Savannah. Ga.. is spending a few
months in this city among friends and rela
tions. During Bi* stay he has consented to
teach a class or two in instrumental and
vocal music, in which he is qui'e a master,
and is meeting, as hie ability demands, with
brilliant success. He is the organist at Clin
ton Street M E- Church. He gave a concert
forth- benefit of that church recently,
which was a grand success. The children
and choir, trained bv such a master,
reflected credit upon themselves and their
teacher. Our people in the city would do
well to induce Prof. Morse to take up his
permanent residence among them. Dr. L
G. Adkinson, President of New Orleans
University, was present at the concert and
enjoyed it. He could not he.p it. It waa
enjovabie. Bro. A* P, Camphor, Bunday
school >uperintendent of the church was
stage manager.
