NOTICE!
To Our Many Correspondents
In order to save tin e and get ou
paper out at the expectation of the
people, it is very necessary that all
Items be in our office not later than
Thursday AOOJWW.u (iti
Often have wc been delayed in issu
ing our paper and equably as often
have we been termed slothful. So to
avoid every thing of c uch a nature be
ng hurled at us, we kirdly ask all o
ur coirespondents tohave all items
in by Thursday of each week.
What part is the Negro going t
play in the line of progress.
We dont think much of the oponion
render by Attorney General Goddarb
through of iiis assistant.
We want more farmers, less preach
ers, Doctors, Lawyers, Cuib-stone
Politican and ward healers for the
colored race.
The new constitution of North
Carolina injures the poor igornt
white little, but worse than the A
merican Negro.
It seem there are good many women
in this courtry favor polvgamv from
applause, Robert received after his
speach. Good men must be in demand
if that is true.
It look as though that the admin
istration sre pinging against Parsons
for the asylum after Clav Centre play
ing the babv art, and Topeka p’ayiug
unfair on the Back Grounds.
If the American Negro just had
the white man's chance, the question
»9 to where he will reside wou’d be
of little impotanep. and our eculhern
brethren could rest in peace.
We only have one thing to hope
for in this country, accept those posi
tions that the white mm went have,
respect the virtue of our women and
split pennies before ■-‘pending them.
The first and second class cities are
holding too many surplus Negroes,
aud if acme of the industrious Gegtos
would work as hard on a farm ns
they do in the cities, we see no iea
son why they could not become good
iver in a few years.
If our colored school w mid educate
our people the worth of a doll ir and
importance of a trade instead of leav
ing them under the impression ihat
aa soon as they get a common school
education on that they must make
a living with out the sweat of the
brow.

THE COLORLIXE AGAIN
Aud now the .news comes that the
white Regimental officers of the Forty
ninth United States Volunteer Infant
ry after fraternizing with the colored
company officers in this coun I py, im
mediately after the ship that i?cariy
i..g the n to ’the Phillippmes "moved
out from the harbor at San Frauc’sco
established the color line with.a ven
geance: and now the white regimental
officers eat at the first table, 'and the
colored company officers eat at the
second table. And thus we send the
government’s representatives to sub
due and civilize a dark race, who .carry
their American prejudice to color, to
a country where it never existed.
To live under the ban of color's is
worse than living in a superstitious,
ignorent and half civilized state. The
latter obstaclec we can remove by self
development of our own motion: the
former, wo cannot remove, because i'
is in the breast of others and they'not
knowing its baleful influences by ex
perience, are not concealed in its re
moval.

What will he do about it? An ‘'officer”

Chari lies ar.d this opinion seems to
have beer promulgated with the idea
of retarding the progoess of erecting
this much needed institution rather
than any thing else. It has been evi
dent for some time past that the Re
publican Sta'e administration has
been considering the advisability of
trading this section off tor political
Capitol to the short graes section ar
ound Clay Ce iter, and rather than do
their duty in this matter and carry
nut the plans as agreed upon by the

the matter by either refusing to act

LACK OF RESPECT TO OUR
WOMEN.
One cannot. fail to observe the ev
er-increasin'*; dP~o«i.ion on the part
of onr vonnj men, especially, to be
lisrespectful to wnrn a n. we know
‘hat som« sillr wamen “run after”
and net our young men iua way that
5 s not becoming,canseing tnem to lose
respect for the sex Bat this cannot
account for the general iudifforenco
and lack of respect to our good women
whirl) we constantly see exhibited.
' The tendency to tell who admonishes
a son for his own good, to mind
her own business is becoming pain
fully prominent. The manner of ad
dressing respectable young lad'es on
lie street—attracting their attention
by whistling, coughing, hallowing and
■’tamping the feet the familm’" putting
of the hands on them while in conver
sation, and the introducing of subjects
that are “off color,” are, to say the
'east, disgusting Another habit that
is on the increase is the habit of our
voting m’n w T ho attended social func
tions going alone enjoying the hospit
tality of the hostess and the comnanv
of the young ladies present, and then
departing alone, leaving the young
ladie3 to get borne as best they can,
without escorts at late hours of the
night. The habit has grown until it
has become a matter of serious con
sideration by those who extend such
invitations as to whether the offend
ers shall receive further recognlzation.
ft can not bo for the sake of economy
that the young ladies are permitted
to go unattended, for many of the
■ :; V"
as much as it would cost to see a lady
home. The time was when a gentle
man who att n led a p irty or recept
ion an l <1 l not escort a lady home
was like a poor boy at the fair with
no one bear him company. This
change in such matters indicates a
decline in the respect which we have
for our women. Coming through ex
perience-: which h tvs been the lot of
our mo-her 3. and the temptations
and environments with which our
sisters ti >.ve been surrounded, Amer
ican Negro womanhood is exception
ally pure the standard of the morals
o? the women of any race is the high
water mark of tbe possibilities of the
men of that race.
Me should revere our women; de
fend and pr tect them, and instead of
permitting the . to go home at late
hours, unattended, estetm it an hon

AVhileit was claimed that the object
of the proposed amendment was-to
secure white Supremacy, said Mr
Prichard the real purpose' was to dis
franchise thousands of white and Col
ored citizens aud thus create an officer
holding class. There could be no
fear of Negro domina‘ion in North
Caroliua, declared Mr. Pritchard, be
cause the outnumbered the blacks by
two to one. He regard the attempt
to amend the constitution as an effort
to legislate the fraudulel methods of
the Democratic party.
WASAINGTON, Jan. 23—In the
i Senate today McEnery (Dem. La.)
delivered his announced speech on
the resolution of Mr. Pritchard (nep.
N. C.), relative (o the proposed ameud
rrent to the constitution of North
Carolina. He said the race question
was one of the most serious which had
ever confronted the nation, _»nd add
ed:
“Sofar the intellects of the Sou
th have endeavored to find some rem
edy to make the South prosperous not
withstanding the presence of a vast
number of ignorant black-: to make
her social position clear and defined in
the separation of the races, and to
p’aee her on a political basis that will
insure stability to her institutions
mike the ballot box the sacred depos

assinated: to prevent them by means
of the ballot and superior numbers
from again getting control of the State
and inangratlng the era of terrorism
and corruption which prevailed under
this goyerßrnent fjom 1868 to 1877.
“The recolection of that period is
like a bell-horn dream and one is al
most unnerved at the mention. It is
the darkest and most shameful period
in the history cf the human race.
The wonder now is that by force it
was not sooner terminated by an out
raged people.
“Annul the legislation of Louisana
which has for its sole object the ad
vancement of both races the progress
of the State society politically and in

, “There never has been any disposi

He reviewed this situation and ther
1 spoke of the beneficial results of whit#
' supremacy.

not a violation of any representative

amendment to the constitution ©f
North Carolina Mr. it did
not exclude the Ne?ro from fiom vote

He has the right in common with
the white people said he on the con
ditions alike applicable to both races
that he cau read and write or that he
owns a certain amount ot real or per
sonal property. He is deprived of ro
right of suffrage by the conferring o f
it upon another class.”
He maintained that- the right of
vote could be conferred only bv a
State, and there was no restriction on
the State ag to persons it might admi

“There is nothing in the text of the

“The opportunities are those of the

“The rapid industrial prrgress of

of the statue of Lafayette at the
Paris exposition and to represent the
government at the exposition.
Senator Cockrell, of Missouri, called
attention to the fact that there was
an understanding that no woman
should represent this government at
the Paris exposition, the French gov
ernment having objected to women
representatives. .
Mr. Depew replied that he knew
of no such restriction but Senator
Allison said that such a restriction
was made.
Senator Platt, of New York, intro
duced a joint resolution authorizing
the president to invite the government
