pletcd finances urged him to decline
the place of honor at the bead of the
ticket, but his earnest pleadiugs were
■in vain and his followers have forced
him again to the front and furnished
the funds requisite for his campaign
purposes. Rarely has a man since
the days of the “Pathos of his Coun-
try’’ received such practical eulogium.

dies of the south as their criteri-
ans, because the white ladies
South of the Masion and Dixson
line are the virtue of the
world.
He advised his race to buy land
and settle homes aud be true
citizens and tax payers, and let
the country feel that they amount
to what they ought to be.
He claims that truth is the ba-
sis of virtue.
He claims that the females of
the race, figures largely in the
deduction of race pride.—He
said tell ns what the women are
of uny community and we will
tell you what the men are.
He claims that the school
teachers, the preachers, the Law-
yers and the Doctors—ought to
mention every quality tlint it
takes to make a lady or gentle-
man as tl ey are the sign board
for the nation.
He also claims that the head
of families are the cause of the
down fall of their families, by
allowing all clases to »>e their as-
sociates.—He said that we must
debar those who are not worthy,
their parents be our best
friends.
He also claims that tho kind
actions toward our raco given
by those who claim to he more
than what they ure—causes
them to load a life that is not fit
for anything—Ho says that the
young girls of tho ruce koeps
company with the worthless
young people who never will he

were ruisod with them.

with your daughters in order to
preserve their virtue.
Ho suid that the keeping of
company with tho young uud
single females by the married
men was a mark of an un virtuous
step. He charges them to bo
aware of company. Ho claims
that the colored race in America
has made more progress in 29
years than any race has made in
one huudred.—Though ho says
that they have not did enough.
He says that the world cannot

Dr. J. D. Moore from Atlanta
Texas made a most efficient lec-
ture upon the present morals and
the future standard of his Race
—He said that he was glad to
have the white people with them
as it appeared that they were in-
terested in the welfare of the
colored race.—
He said that he believed that
slavery to be previdond.
Ho said that since the fall of
Carthage by the Romans that

race, went down, down, till the
emancipation of the slaves jit
this country. Now if Africa is
saved at all it will be by the ne-
groes of this country.
He appeals to the colored
brethren to prepare themselves
for that great work.
says that the North and South
are pouring out their money in
order to educate them.—
If they ever be anything ut
all, they must meet them and
cultivate brains in order to show
an appreciation of what is done
in their interest.
Ho concluded by sayihg the
negro problem of this country
will solve itself if they are only
let alone, and it will he done iu
harmony.
Ho said that the professional
negroes are meeting with no op-
position in this country.—
He says that the educated pro-
fessional white men takes an ac-
tive part in the welfare of the
true professional negro. All you
have to do is to come in the
right door and you are cordially
received, so you can not feel that
your opposition is a white man.
