Even black members of the Grand

1*W strong in other parts of the
country. During a recent Congrega¬
tional coventi on in Iowa a lady of
Grinnefl, a town distinguished for its
educational institutions, in describ¬
ing tbe work of the “Society of Chris¬
tian Endeavor,” told bow the Socie-
ty had extended its aid to a colored
girl who waa finely educated but who,
on account of her color, could find
so employment except that of a life of
drudgery, for which she did not have
the required physical strength, and
from the effects of which she died.
While such things are true at the
North, it is arrant hypocrisy for
Northerners to prate about the
“insane prejudice” of Southerners
■gainst ths negro. The truth is that
this color prejudice is entertained by
most white people—by a great many
Who concede that it sesms unreason¬
able, and yet who confess that they
cannot get over it. How far this
prejudice is the result, conscious or
unconscious, of slavery; how far, if
at §11, it is really a racefeeling, which
is permanent—these are questions
which nobody can settle ofihand.
This is emphatically a matter which
calls for patience and forebearance.
We must remember that it is only
about thirty years since Abraham
Lincoln, in his famous joint debate
With Douglass, in answering.on the
18th of September, 1858, the ques¬
tion whether he was “really in favor

replied.

Abraham Lincoln would not stand
by that doctrine if he were living in

murder in Charleston, 8. C., before a
jury half ol Whose members are ne¬

Lincoln, in 1889, call it “monstrous "
