“J WORD TO COLORED PEO
PLE.”
The Morning News of yesterday
has an editorial with the above cap
tion. We Lave no obj >ction to our
* friends of the News tendering good
y and wholesome advice to our race if
f it would assist in their elevation
and progress in life; but when it
.attempts upon the authority of ‘-a
¥ prominent colored man” (?) to say
-that “idleness and thriftliness ware
\pn the increase among the colored
people of this city,” it makes an
E assertion that is not substantiated
by facts, even if the information
comes from “a prominent colored
man.” The editor of the News is
in a position to know that the c -lur
ed people have made as rapid pro
gress in the accumalation of wealth
■ and the attainment of useful knowl
edge as any class simiiaily situated.
* The neat little dwellings that
are being erected around our city
are evidence of their thrift. Their
conduct as peacable and law abid
ing 'citizens is other evidence of
being decent and well behaved citi
zens. It is true that the Negro
| race like every other race have their
good and bad.bat to strike a fair com
parison between tberr, and if the
I News were to be put upon the stand
| to testify as a fair and impartial
I witness, it will credit them as mak
j ing rapid improvement since email
| cipatiou. As to their being not
I thrifty, polite and industrious, we
have the best of evidence to the
| contrary. She News’ “prominent
j colored man might suggest more
; useful iniormati >n than to as
sist in the attempt to slander his
race.
DEMO ORA TIC D OMINA TION
AT THE SOUTH.
It is essentially necessary that
the Republican partv should be re
turned to power. The glaring in
consistencies of the present admin
istration and the neglect to enforce
the law by those in power, make
this fact apparent and give it
emphasis. •
And, too, the extent to which
Democials in the South are going
m ill-treating and actually taking
ibe lives of colored citizens —not
one, but many—requires that some
ihiug be done, and speedily, to put
a stop to this wholesale slaughter of
colored men. This sort of thing
has been going on unceasingly dur
ing the present adminstration. Now
that we are in the boat oi a presi
dential campaign it is growing
worse, indeed it is significant that
just-about election tune colored men
should be reported to have become
!>■» unruly, so riotous, and withal so
obnoxious to tue Southern thugs
and assassins. Scarcely a week
pusses that we do not hear of some
colored man or men Leing killed
without any provocation or on a
ruinped up charge. Such a state
of affaiis should only be found in
barbarous and uncivilized'countries
yet they are of f requent occurrence
m this country, woich is said to be
one of the most civilized and ad
vanced Upon the face of the globe.
In the light of the recent massa
cre of colored men at Freetown,
Louisiana, how can a colored man
vote for a party which sanctions
outrages of this kind? These state
ments are not pictures of the imag
ination; they are tacts which are
verified by the Northern press eve
ry day. It is strange bur neverthe
less true, that Northern Democrat*
.c paperSfWill chronicle the barba
ous outrages perpetrated upr n
the colored people oi the South in
in their news eolemns, but they nev
er raise ti eir voices in their editorj
al columns in condemnation of these
outrages. Why is this? It is oe
cause the Democrats of the North
are ever anxious to reta n ihe 153
electoral voles sent up by the Somh
They would rather sa; c ion by
their silence these outrages for the
sake of receiving illegal votes than
raise their voicesand use their pens
on the side of right and justice.
Colored men should remember
these thii gs, and remembering
Tieiu cast their voter for the Repub
,i«an party, which is the only party
that has endeavored to crtiS'i these
outrages and enact laws to protect
<dl citizens alike.
What coloted men should do in
the South is to exercise more united
action among themselves. They
should exercise mote secrecy in
> forming plans to ameliorate their
condition. And when they form
their plans they should act s one
man in executing them. It they do
this they will tied success attending
their efforts to bettei their condi
tion where failure is now their only
reward.—N. Y. Age.
CORRESPONDENCE.
Editor Tribune; Dear Sir.—A
few week ago uur heart.-* were nmde
glad to know that Dodge county
had put a number of colored citizeus
names whom they believe were com
peteut to serve us juiors in the
jury box, since that, it seem* h >et
of devilcrat and mobocrats disguised
took away the box from the lawful
custodian and burned the same with
out shame. I know it is a folly to
expect devils to be ashamed but
thought tbit Dodge county ha 1
humanity enough to allow colored
citizens to sit on jury after their
names were put in the box by white
commissioners appointed by a white
judge. This action of those invisi
ble devils shows, where tue Negroes
are most wanted—that is in the
fields, the workshops, and all other
place of labor; yes, in the peniten
tiary rather than on the jury as a
citizen. Such cowards, and law
breakers. Some of those very fel
lows would ask a Negro to rota tor
the Democrats being his best triend
Such friendship me Negro can
easily afford to do without. As a
legislator, juror, or to fill any po i
tion of honoi and trust nose devils
say by their action the Negro is not
wanted. But in spite of rhe burn
ing of the jury box of Dodge coun
ty,in spite oi giving notice u> Repuh
licaiis not »o speak in ikes, some
Negroes wul go to the L u g;s'aturc, 1
some will sit on jury, and others
will speak freely in every county in
Georgia. Mark what I say, since
wiitiug abotv Wilkes. I heard that
the Democrats gave a co ored fe-1
male teacher rwentv-tour h< nrs to !
leave Washington Georgia for no I
other cause but teaching Negro
children. It seems that every thing
is aimed to keep the Negro down.
We were told that the teachers,
morally and otherwise i s
equal of any lady in Georgia, that
she is a graduate of the Atlanta
University- Such being the case
the colored men of W ashingt n Ga.
ought to protect her if it took all
the laws of Georgia and the United
States to do it- Too much ot one'
thing is good for nothing, but the
reckoning day will come. Every
colored man should equip himself
and vote solid this. year. You can
loose nothing by so doing. Let
every colored voter ot Geoig a rally
to the support of his party’s nomi
nees. Let the Union Brotherhood
be established in every county in
Georgia; that every thing that
tend to the upbuilding ot the race
may have concert of action at the
polls, and elsewhere.
