The bluster that is being made over the proposal for the relief of the negroes in the scuth reminds us of a talk we had with a negro in Louisiana some months ago. This negro had participated in the famous exodus whi:h boomed and fizzl-d a number of years ago; hie experience i llustratos very fair ly, we think, the sentiment of the average southern negro toward the whitee of that section . “I had a little money left when I had been in Kansas six months mu’ I was so lonesome that I made up my mind to git back to Gawd’s own ken try a« quick as I could. Kansas may be good enough for white folks, but it aint no place for this nigger. So I rode on the railroad as fur as they’d let me and then I start ed out to walk the rest of the way, and I hop’ sayin’ to myself all the time: Wonder how fur ’tie to Gawd’s own kentry. J was jus that lonesome, boss, I mos died. Long about noon I’d come to a house. Mebbe they had a dorg there, 1 stood m the road and hollered. A man would com» to the do’ of the bouse an holler back. Then I'd ask him could I git eumtin to eat there. Has you got any money, sir? ha asks. a little, says I, n.n he’d tell me to come in. Wife he says to the white lady, cook this colored gen’man a meal of victuals an shore enough the white lady would fly round an git a fine break fas. But, to’ the Lawd boss, I cou'dn’t eata bite with them white folks waitin’on me—l was too shamed. White folks got no business waitin' on niggers. So I’d pay my money an’ keep on walkin’, wishing all the tune I was back in Gawd's own ken try an’ wonderin’ if I’d never get there agin. ‘•lkep’ on walkin’ an’ walkin’, Gue day I eome to a little house that stood back in a clearin.’ Seven yaller dorgs come round the corner ar.’ burked when I hollered ‘hullo.’ li looked so nat’ral says I. onless I be mmtooken, that is Gawd s on kentry, but Ikep’ on hollerin’ an’ ther dorgs kep’ oil barkin’. •Bimeby a gen’man come out’n the bouse. ‘What you want, you dam black nigger’ says the gen’man. ‘Sbo erough, this Gawd s own kentiy a* las’l’says I. ‘Boss. I’se so hungry 1 liin jes’ move ’ ’Go out to that wood pile'an’ ch up some wood an’ I’h fetch suinfin’, says he. “SeG'Ticcl powerful £foo<i to oe choppiu’ wood agin.

I hat night the gen’man says, ‘Hyar, you lain nigger, go out an make yo self a shake down in the stable an sleep there! ’ “Boss.
