result in great benefit to Athent.
THE NEGRO IN THE SOUTH. |
Now and then some southern white
man makes himself rediculous by en
deavoring to explain to the people of the
North how brutally the negro is treated
in this si o'icn. As a rale thii is the re
suit of thirst for notoriety on the part
of the southerner ; sometimes it is the
result of ignorance and not infrequent
ly it romos from a desire to create strife.
Ttie people of the north are responsi
ble for the presence of the negro in this
i on itry. They were the first slave own
ers in the United States and not until
they found that the negro conld not be
vorked with profit in the cold climate
jf the North did they display any great
horror for the custom of slave-holding
The slaves were sold to the people of the
South and at a good price, and there is
no reason why the Northern people
should endeavor to act as the guardians
of the negro. They have no love for the
negro,except at long ramie. and there is
no excuse for any Interference from the
people of the North In the matter of thi
treatment of the negro by the people ot
the South,
in an address before the New Eng
land Society in New Fork city on Dec
22nd. 1889, Henry W. Grady told tin
people of the North that the southern
people were competent to handle thi
negro and that the people of this sec
tion would handle him without the as
sistance of others at long range. Hi
told them that we were keeping faiil
with the negro and would continue to do
so. Speaking of the relations existing
between the members of the two race,
he said. "The relations of the South
ern people with the negro are close anc
cordial. We remember with what fi
delity for four years he guarded our de
fenceless women and children whote
husbands and fathers were fighting
against his freedom. To his eternal
credit be it said that whenever he struct
a blow for his own liberty he fought ii
open battle, and when at last he raised
his black and humble hands that thi
shackles might be struck off, thou
hands were innooeut of wrong againsi
his helpless charges, and worthy to le
taken in loving grasp by every man who
honors loyalty and devotion,”
o nobler tribute was ever paid !o
the members of any race, and the loyal
ty and devotion Mr. Grady speke of car
only be fully undi rstood and apprecia
ted by the people of the South. Vet al
of those who went to the army from thi
South daring the oivil war and left theii
homes in charge of negro Blaves felt
imre that their affairs were in gord
hands. Tho same friendly and cordisl
relations have been kept up by the pet -
pie of the South with the better element
of the negro lace.
Speaking farther of the negro in tie
South, Mr Grady said : "Ruffians have
maltreated him, rascals have misled him,
philanthropists established a bank for
him, bnt tho South, with the North,
protests against in justice to this simple
and sincere people.”
The Banner does not set itself np rb
what some call a "negro lover,” neither
are we "negro hatere." Along with all
others, we desire to see the negro get
fall justice, and wo are convinced that
the worthy and deserving {negro of the
South does get full justice. As Mr.
Grady set oat, there are rnffiians and
rascalB who maltreat and mislead the
negro, bnt there are rare cases. Mach
more frequently do worthless members
of the negro ruoe impose npon the white
people who have befriended them.
There is paactically no trouble br.
tween the white people of the South and
the better element of the negro race,
and the tronble that arises from time
to time between the whites and worth
less members of the negro race can be
taken care of by the white people of the
Sonth without any outside interference,
and this will be done. The Southern
people have never yet allowed persons
from other sections to interfere with
onr planB for looking after the negro and
this will never be tolerated.
