Our people know every thing

they do little or nothing.
An idle brain carries a tattling
tongue and the way of it is hell.
A busy brain is ever at work
and carries a silent tongue and
the way of it is peace, success and
prosperity
Borne of our women change col

they are one color but when it is

Some women are sweet April

One half our young men want
to be “dudes” of fashion with an
empty pocket bock and good for
nothing brain
Man was born for usefulness to
himself, to his race, to his coun
try and to his God; then his brain
is the site of his thinking faculty
and the more he thinks on noble
things and put them into action
the more he wants to think for hu
inanity. Let the Negro think some
for himself and for humanity
People who do not read tiews'pa

progress, They are mostly the
ones who breed trouble and live in
it They are too poor to pay for a
weekly paper to better their cond

s the amount foolishly. Subscribe

Most all pf our habits are mod

only the rod of correction. Good

Let us stop acting a fool, a

Col. Jas. HillyVhairman of the

called the attention of the chair
men of respective counties to
meet on April 30th and reorgan

Why don't the colored

Southern Negro Congress Is not

In eveiTy vicinity the leading
men she uld come together and
work for the common good and
welfare of that vicinity and show
to their white friends that they
mean intelligence, civilization,
prosperity and progress, and
when they see you mean busi
ness in this waythey will aid
your success,
We live in the South and we
should work for the South, its
progress and welfare; work to
better your condition, your race
and its progress.
Nothing but shiftless good for
nothing labor is ever abused by
white people When a Negro has
climbed or is climbing the ladder
of success, you never hear a
white man evil speak him; on the
other hand his own race starts a
war to finish until he has-landed
his many thousands. You* do not
even show coumionsense and the
very Negro you fight will get
more favors from white people
than yon can dream of, while you
get none,
It is true that the government
does not support the people, but
[he people the government—,a
wind that never blows upon its
races and subjects in their old
poor dotage any remunernatien
as a charitable gift cares but lit

jects. Our .government should
set pa example to the diameter
and eiTCUBaference o.f the world,
upon its laud, a fvee-gifu home
for all old people, white or color
ed, unable to support themselves
Charity! charity! Oh, charity.
Does not charity begin at home?
No, she overlooks home and
Hies abroad.
There are thousands of poor
old. white and colored people
who have nothing to depend up
on nor relatives to care and sup

Cary, Miss.
Old Mississi
Mississippi without contradie
tion is making a rapid progress
and as long: as the people contin
ue to select and elect such men as
Governor, A H Longino, Senators
Me Laurin and Money, they will
make no mistake. We know them
to be Christian gentlemen, full of
forethought ahd wisdom, true to
their democracy and convictions,
and the sande can he said of others
The people often make mistake
out they see and know, that no
true government will prosper and
succeed when other than Christian
are at its head. It is nature and
party bolitics for the most vietori
ous to rule and govern, and yet,
no government will ever succeed
that will elect an officer to rule
who aim and intention is to hate
or suppress any of its subjects on
account of race, color or servitude
wdien that government is at their
command.
Politics are being managed in a
more conservative form than in
former years. The public trust de
mands conservative men in offices
be they republicans or democrats
The day of the extremists is al
most numbered in the past, and
he who desires an office must
not ridicule any subjects on acc
ount of race, servitude or nation
ality. The extreme politician has
been looked upon as the most dan
gerous to any ci vilized governing
of people in the world or even in
the smallest municipal go v e r n
ment. God is in +he helm; moreov
er it requires time, and the dark
eat. ua v of -any cotrrrtry was -in its
embryo
The darkest days of the "Negro
was extreme slavery which God
through man set them free, and
yet we are now free, subjected to
a modern slavery of our own for
the want of intelligence and will
power
The disfranchisement of the ra
ces is a Godly blessing, through it
the Negro of ambition will rise
The Confederate Veterans are
having a glorious time at Dallas
Texas and we do earnestly hope
a large delegation will be present
at the Southern Negro Congressf
