When it is remembered that

shape oi amendments than by any
pravtooB legislature in a long time.

,J thus snMr* the sore
1 thereby removing all
hla followers some time ago to meet
In Atlanta on Nov. 13, and sulra-
quently announce! that the conven¬
tion was postponed. A good many
tee did not hear of the
postpoi it, however, and were
tor the meeting. Pledger, rays Hie
Morning New*, made u speech to
these delegates, and among other
things he advised them to do all they
could to influence the blacks to shun
the census takers next June, so that
Georgia’s population would appear
iunaller than it is. His purpose was,
he said, to cause Georgia to lose sev¬
eral of her congressmen, as represen¬
tation in congress is hosed upon
population. hnvl forgotten
Pledger see .ns to fed¬
that the census is taken under a
eral law, and if the colored people
were to act upon his advice they
would, in effect, be guilty of con¬
spiring to defeat the law. There
may be no punishment tor a conspir¬
acy of that kind, but« there isn’t,
there ought to be. ob¬
Colored men like Pledger nre
stacle* in the way of the progress of
their race. They have no deaire to
see their race advance. They are
gabled wholly by selfish motives,
and would willingly sacrifice the
b«et interests of their-rece to gain a
point for themselves. It is doubt-’
tofU Pledger can point to a* single
thing in his whole career that has
been helpful to the colored people.
In striking contrast to Pledger is
John T. Shuften, of Orlando, Fla.,
who recently wrote a letter on the
race question, which was published
to the World on Nov. 14. He la a
colored man of considerable promi¬
nence, and his letter shows that he
possesses ability and culture, and
that he is guided by gbod motives.
In his tetter he says:
There are always two sides to ft
question, and until the colored rare
learns by their hard and interests styi experience lie there
wheie true
will ever be unnecessary local trou¬
bles and disturbances in every
southern state between the two
races, and no power under the sun
can by force prevent it.
* * * *
It is a foregone conclusion that
the colored element can never be¬
come a ruling class in any of these
southern states, no matter how
much they may predominate in num¬
bers in white communities.
s * *
It it unreasonable for the people of
the north to expect that the people
of the south will grant privileges
which they themselves do
not accord the negro. I say it is
unreasonable for any people to
expect the wealth, intelligence, and
refinement of a community to yield
{Missive obedience and become sub¬
missive to the domination of its
ignorant and more illiterate class,
and so long as there is a persistency
in this direction, encouraged by un-
principaled politicians for sinister
motives, so long will there lie serious
conflicts between the two elements.
There is-no prejudice here against
the negro in pursuing his own sub¬
stantial happiness in any legitimate
railing. There is no avenne of in¬
dustry shut ngninst him in the
south. There is no desire on the
part of the people to keep him down,
but they have rather in every in¬
stance, shown m sympathy and leel-
ing that onght to be commended.
Those jfanatical leaders, pretended
preachers, and politicians up north
who are toying to incite a conflict
between tbe races by advising retali¬
atory measures against outrages in
the south are of all men the greatest
enemies of the colored raee.
John T. Shuften states the truth
about the condition of tbe blacks in
the south, and it is a pity that there
not more colored men like him to
give the same sort of advice to the
people of his race. There are in this
city colored men wbo will readily ad¬
mit that the following extract from
his tetter is true: ‘Show me an
honest, upright, industrious man in
any son them community, and I
show yon a man who has no
complaint to make.*’ The troth is
there is no desire to keep the colored
down. On the contrary, there
is everywhere the utmost kindness
them, and if they engage in
any kind of business they receive
possible encouragement^
Pledger would drag hte people down
to satteiy hte feelincs of hatred and
revenge. Syhuften would lift them up,
because he has no hat rede and wants
to see them prosper.
-toe Democrat* of that state of the

that bis patty has either law or j*s-

the most influential Republicans of
Southern Montana, and, as he is
wealthy, the other iCepublieans do
not charge that he was bribed. They
are said to he greatly excited over
his attitude. It is refreshing to find
an honest Republican in the Montana
legislature, and it is fo be hoped
that Mr. Olds is uot the only honest
one.

Never go to bed with cold or damp

on in the morning.
Tt is bad to lean your back against
anything cold, particularly when it
is on icy pavement, upon which your

Always eat your breakfast before
beginning a journey. If you haven’t
any breakfast, don’t journey.
After violent* exercise—like putting
up the stove or nailing down carpets
—never ride around town in an open
carriage. It is better to walk. It is
also cheaper.

When you see a man put the light¬
