(From the Washiigton Star.)
Bishop Henry M. Turner, -o
Georgia, who is one of the bost
known and most highly educated
negro ministers in. the United States
was in Washington a fow days thik
week, and gave the Evening Star
the following interview touching th(
emigration of negroes to Africa, it
which ipovement the Bishop is the
recognized head, and with which he
has been identified for a number o:
years. Bishop Turner ig an nnthu
siast on the emigration question, ani
does not hesitate to say that it is
only a question of oxtormination or
emigration for the negro. He has
given the question years of study,
and has been censured and abused
by both the white and colorei
races, but this has not caused him to
depart one iota from his beliefs and
purposes regarding African emigra.
tion.
Replying to a question Bishop
Turner said:
"Some of you gentlemen of th<
press have seon fit to give mot at
occasional roasting, but I am pleased
to say that in most instances th(
press has boon ready to give my fol
lowers and mysolf .ustico. We havc
done nothing in this matter excepi
in an open and straightforward man
nor, ad we have kept no one in the
dark about anything concerned wit
the movement. It has boon our aiu
to give it the widest publicity possi
ble, and I am even willing that I
should be caricaturod and lam
basted by the pross if by so doing i
will aid in any way in spreading the
truths of our mission aud our work
THE NEOnO's NATURAL HOMM.
"I think the future of the negr<
race lies in Africa, his natural home
and the richest country on earth
Africa is the negro's fathorland, and
the sooner he goes the better fo:
him. This movement is far-ronch
ing, and will chango the entire his
tory of our race. It has simply comi
down to exterminatiou or emigratioi
for the negro. Any intelligent mat
who has given the matter conside
ration realizes that. Why is it sol
Simply from tho fact that statisticE
show that the negro race is dying
out. It is not growing healthier
happier, wiser or anything els(
which goes to make life worth
living.
"God Almighty, in His infinit<
goodness and wisdom, made Africt

A frica. I bolievo this just as muel
as I do that the sun shines. If ]
had $5,000,000 1 woulid invest over3

"No, indeed, but, on the cont- a-y,
a lot of ignorant negroes have op

They prate about the sickness of
Africa and miany ohter things of
which they are in denso ignorance.
The thoughtful and intelligent of the
white race ondorso the emigration

negro race.

"There is some chance, too, of the
negro being ro enslaved if he prefers
to say that this kind of talk comes
from a disordered brain, bat that
kind of sfuff does not annoy me in
the least.
"Africa is one of the very richest
countries on earth, and with a line of
steamers owned and controlled by
negroes, jr1ing botween that great
country and th(j United States, the
negro would soon grow rich and
prosperouR by selling to the whites
of this country minerals, precious
ores, gems, ivory, and a thousand
things wbich are found in abundance
in that rich land, and which would
fetch good prices hero. I believe
that the press of this country would
be doing incalculablo benefit to hi.

giving the facts as wide publicity as
possible."
"Is the movement growing sat
isfactorily ?"
"Of course, with others, I am
naturally somowhat impatient, but
I can say that everything presents
an encouraging look. The move
ment is one of vast magnitude
and cannot be carried through in a

whon the first steamers sail for that
land, which will be one of peace and
plenty, and which/vas intended as

COAST LINE'S '8oo0r.
11no More Mileage Than Any Other Road.
The purchase of the Oharleston
and Western Carolina by the Coast.
Line is the sensation in railroad cir
cles. The negot-iaticns wore evi
dontly conducted with the greatest
secrecy. Chairman Evans of the
railroad commission, who was in the
city yesteriday, expressed the great
est surprise, and said 'that he had
not oven suspected such a thing.
By the purchase, the Coast Line
becomes the largest railroad in the
stato at least as far as mileage is con
cor-ned. It owns about half the mile
age in the state, its total trackage
being somewhat over eight hundred
miles. The0 Southern heretofore
owned the greatest mileage, the
amount being about five hundred.
The Charleston and Western Caro
linai has about twvo hundred and
fort.y-oight miles of track. In con
nection with the purchase, the fol
lowing in reference to the business of
the road will be read with interest,
it being taken from tho Augusta
Chronicle:
Discussing passonger earnings, it
is pertinent to remark that there is
one road runnmng into Angusta that
has every renson to be gratified at
the result of the business of .1897 in
the passenger department. General
Manager- W. J. Craig, of the Char
leston, and Western Carolina re
marked yesterday to a Chronicle re
porter that his system had shown a
steady increase for the p)ast year,
the average increase for every month
being one thousand dollars.
Trol)e is no railroad property in
the south that has showni such (de
cidod improvement in uall depart
ments as has the Charleston and
Weostern Carolina.
After his talk with Mr. Craig the
reporter happened later in the day
to be in a group of railroad men and
they wore discussing the long dis
tance telephone feature above men
tioned1. He cited the case of the
Charleston and Western Carolina
passenger earning for the year, when
one of the railroadlers remarked:
"Now that is one of the finest rail.
way system, in the country."
"Yes; if it had a direct western
connection," another said.
"It doesn't need any western con
neetionI," the first speaker rep)lied.
"Its local business is the very boat."

HARD ON MR. HANNA
DEEATED IN ?ELIMIINAILY SKIlt
MISil1 FOR 01110 SENATO4sil1P.
The Cotn,lMe Agaiest, the tepubiucan Boss
Capture s the Organiratiots of the Legis
lature-A Hot Thno.
Columbus, 0, Jan. 8.-The sena.
torial contest in the Ohio legislaturo
has becomo desporate. The combino
of 10 anti-Hanm repuhlieans with
the democratic members won at the
caucuses last Saturday night and
again today in organizing both
branches of the legislature in the
interest of the "combine," opposition
to the ro election of Sonator Hanna.
There are two dates for tests of
strength-the joint senatorial cau
cuses next Wednesday night and the
joint balloting for senator one week
from next Wednesday, January 12.
With the complications of the logis.
lativo organization and its patronage
disposed of, the Hanna men tonight.
began a most desperate fight on the
senatorship.
The Hanna men deny that they
will form a coalition with Calvin S.
Brice,- a gold democrat, for senator,
rather than be beaten by a free silver
republican, or that they will do any
thing else but fight it out if it takes all
winter. While they are not able to
give a list long enough to elect, they
claim that Hanna is stronger than
Boxwoll and the other regular re
publ-can candidates in the organiza
tion of the legislature, and that the
opposition has not enough votes to
elect a senator.
The Hanna men concedo that they
have lost the power of the organiza
tion of both branches, can name no
chairman, place no members in do
sirable positions on any of the comi
mittees or disposo of any other state
patronage, but they have carried the
war into the homo counties of the
bolting republican membors and ex
pect the necessary changes before
next Wednosday night.
The developments of last Saturday
night and today have caused the
Hanna men to admit they were out
done in the preliminary organization
for this contest aind that they under
estimated the opposition, especially
the extent of it since the November
elect ion.
DEMoCaATIC ACTIVITY.
While ex-Chairman Kurtz was
thought to have been organizing
against Senator Hanna ever since
the republican state convention at
Toleto, yet the participation of Gov
ernor Bushnell and others had not
been fully anticipated. The demo
cratic state headquarters have been
kept in operation by John R1. McLean
and others ever since the Novomn
ber election, ostensibly to prepare a
grand free silver carnival here on
Jackson day, January 8.
It now transp)ires that the demo
cratic state headquarters were kept
open to get all the democratic mem
born in line for what took place to
day and for the defeat of Hlanna.
Meantime Mr. Krutz was marshalling
overy possible republican in ine
against Hlanna and communicating
with the committee en arrangemients
for Jackson day. When this fact was
no longer concealed tonight by the
opposition, thlere wvere more republi
cans openly complaining against
Senator Hanna's managers. Sena
tor Hanna did niot arrive here till
last Friday evening, arnd wvas in
WVashington till tho hioliluy recess.
He heard comp)laints about his own
absence and about under- estimating
the organization of thle op)position
in a very good natured manner and1
inpisted that lhe would yet wvin out.
sUPER[OR ORtoAN1ZATrION.
T1hie superior or.ganiizationi of tile
opposition was shown in the conibine
soecuring today nearly all of tihe
doubtful votes. TIhe oppo.sit ion has
had an army of wvorkers here for a
week, who hamve kept close to eachl
one of the doubtful republicans.
The opposition marched to the state
house in line like troops and worked
for weeks like soldiers under orders.
They had been dlomlg picet duty,
s'.irmishing and walking guard
lines, and they had their t.riumplhal
march in tha most unusual matter,
because of the confidnce in their
organization. The wives and daugh
tors of the managers o! I he "combino"
secured choice seats in advance in
the legislative halls, awaiting the
arrival of the anti-H1annaists and the
most elaborate floral dosigns were
on hand for the occasic.n.
The feeling of the republican
members who voted for their caucus
nominees is openly expressed
against.GovernorBushnell more than
against Mr. Kurtz or othor republi
cans who combinud with the domo
crats.
The State Jo,--nid, the republican
organ of Central Ohio, prints a large
picture of Governor Bushnell, with
heavy black borders. Some republi
can clubs have cancelled their on
gagement, of quarters here for Whe
inauguration exercises next Monday,
and many protests aro being recoived
at the state house. Col. T. W.
Moore of Marietta, another afpoin
tee of Governor Bushnell, today re
signed as trustee of the state insane
asylum at Athens.
FEELING OF REvExGE.
The feeling of revenge was shown
oven in the routine legislative pro
ceedings. Representative Brambloy,
of Cleveland, introduced a bill to ro
peal tho fifty year franchise law for
stroot railways, in which Senator
Hanna is largely interestod. Brain
ley is a contractor who has large
contracts under the municipal ad
ministration of Mayor MeKisson
and other members from Cleveland,
who are supporting Hanna, are said
to have measures ready for changes
and investigations at Cleveland that
would affect Brambloy.
Representativo Jones of Stark
county, a republican who is opposing
Hanna, has been frequently rominded
that the county convention that nom
inated him adopted strong resolutions
instructing him to support Hanna.
Mr. Jones was chairman of the com
n,ittoo on re-olutions in that county
convention and declared himself then
for Hanna. To-day Mr. Jones offered
a very strong Cuban resolution, that
is in conflict with Senator Hanna's
vote on the Cuban question in Ihe
senate.
Representative Scott, of Fulton
county, who voted with "the con
bino" to-day and who is opposing
Senator Hanna, was also instructed
by resolutions at the county conven
tion.
BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT.
Both sides are spending the night
in close conferences. All the changes
that are being sought are anticipated
from repor ts. It is conceded that
Senator Burke, one of the republi
can senators from Cleveland, wvho
has not yet appeared, will bo hero
to vote againstEHanna. His attorney
today presented his certificate of
election to Lieutenant Clovernor Jones
just before the senate convented.
The sonato will cast 17 votes for
Hlanna and 19 against him. If Hanna
is no stronger in the house than the
Boxwell ticket was today wvhon I3ox
well received 53 votes andl Mason 5(1
for speaker, then Senator Hanna
would have only 70 votes on joint
ballot, and 73 are necessary to elect.
Notwithstanding the results of the
organizations of both housea, both
sides seem equally confident in
claiming the senatorship on joint
ballot.
'rho senate stands I8 dlemocrats
and 18 republicans. With party lines
drawn in thE senate, Lieutenant
Gov. Jones r-epubl icani, would have
had the tio vote to cast, and( lhe had
been considered as opposed to Hanna.
The houso stands (12 roepublicans
andI 47 demnocrats, the former in

A tipo Uxperiouce-Pianit All that is Conn

Don't Wait for Higher 'rices.
To the Editor of The Register:
The father of the writer devoted
his life to agriculture. Io made
fifty-five crops. Io mado every
thing on the plantation consumed on
it that it was posFiblo to make. Ie
made all the grain and mont, con
sumod on the plantation and always
had some to soll. Ie had a flock
of shoop that yielded enough wool
for the clothes of all his slaves,
whieh woro homo-mado. The shoes
of all the slaves wore made on the
plantation. He always bought hats
and caps for the mon and boys. Tho
writer know him to haul his cotton to
Charleston, 80 miles, in 1843, and
soll it at 4 conts por pound. Ie
was a successful planter. His plan
tation was solf supporting, and that
was his socrot of success.
Tho writor has made forty-five
crops. He has never failed to make
somo monoy each year. He grows as
near as he can what is consumed on
his plantation. Ho does all his busi
ness for cash. He has no outstand
ing obligat.ions and is on no ono's
paper as security. Standing security
has wreckod more men than any one
other thing. Avoid it as you would
poison. Be just to all alike and true
to thyself.
If the farmers of the south would
be prosperous and happy, lot each
one strive first, to make all On tho
farm they can that is consumod on
it and some to sparo. After that,
plant all the cotton possible and
make every pound possiblo. This is
the determination of the writer.
When he started life, his fathor
gave him the following advico:
"Always plant fur dry weather.
Give good distanco. Never phow the
ground when it is too wet. Nover
stop plows becauso of dry weather.
When you have everything roady for
market, sell it. Never- hold for
higher prices."
I havo done this for fifty years,
and have beaten all who hold for
higher prices. ELLI.o S. KNrr.
