Ga., March 8.—“Tho In flux of immigrants Into this country, for the purpose of becoming laborers, Is probably tho wisest measure that can be adopted for the salvation of tho negro. It is tho only hope of tho negro; tho only solution of the race problem—If ono exists.” Theso words were spoken by Bishop H. M. Turner, of Atlanta, yesterday, when asked by a representative of the Morning News what effect tho immi gration of laborers would have upon the negro racu. “The negro cannot live In the country with the white people, for thoro Is no bond of sym pathy between them, and their life la becoming more apd more unbear able every day. “The white people are pleased to consider the negroes competitors when they are mere bubbles on the surface of a great ocean. Under such conditions the negroes cannot survive, and It will be better for thorn If the immigrants enter this country annd take their employment from them, compelling the negroes to leave and build a country of theli own.” _ Anarchy- Would -fjftipj? ~~ 'When asked if ho thought the ne groes capablo of building a nation of their own, Bishop Turner said ho did. can ; not consider the negro a nation build ing race, and complete anrebv would rule If* they were loft to themsolves.

He fur ther stated the best thing the white man could do for the negro would be to place him back in slavery, for then there would be an object in protecting him. “The negroes fared better and lived better when slavery existed than they do now. I remember a number of cases In the old times when the slave owners engaged in duels to the death caused by ono of the parties mistreat ing a slave. The white man respect ed and protected the negro as a slave, but he has no use for him as he is at the present day. “Tho negro,” ho said, “has not the sense to command the respect of the whites. It is an unfortunate race, and when one acquires tho knowledge of how to read and write, instead of employing these great acquirements for his better education, he only reads things of a sensational nature.

There Is no hope that tho preju dice will diminish, for it is instilled Into tho mind of the sons by the fath er, and that son In turn will ‘hand It down.' ” Illshop Turner saja h'* Is convinced the negroes would leave this country and go to Africa If the government would operate a line of steamers di rect from this country to Africa, and charge a nominal fee. As it Is, they have to go to Now York and take tho steamer for Liverpool and thence to- Africa, crossing the ocean twlco to reach their destination. ‘‘This they are unable to do,” he satd^ “for the avorage negro only makes enough money to live on, and the faro for such a trip could not bo saved out of nls earnings. In fact, do not see how they make enough to live on in Savannah, for there are too many here, but I suppose this is due to the fact that a large number of them have come from the country to the city to secure protection." Better In Slavery. t Bishop Turner said ho looks upon THE HOIKS Of TOOL To People vith Weak Lungs;— You know that for oenturles Cod Llvdr 011 has been considered the best medioino for throat and lung troubles, but its nauseating effect upon the stomach made it impossible for many to take it.

Every one was im bued with tho carnival spirit, and when tho identity of tho king was nmdo known ond the queen crowned at tho coronation ball, at the opera house, the cheering and enthusiasm was deafening. • T. A. Jonnlngs, ono of the most prominent citizens of tho city, was king of the carnival. When his smil ing features were revealed there was a hush and then a deafening plause. The crowning of Miss Elise Chlpley met with equal enthusiasm Tho mystic parade was magnificent, comprising twelve floats with three bands, two of which were from the navy yard and forts. The visitors to the city numbered over five thou sand persons. TWO NEGROES HANGED. Overturned High In the Air, and One Woman Is Fatally Injured.
