A jounft nejtro has risen in

of beingr of great benefit to
his raw. ; His words nre not
alwa.vB pleasent words to the
negro, bat thej are words of
sound Bense that,, if heeded
b.r the race to whom thejr are
addressed, would go a.' long
way toward solving the raw

Luras, and be is theJSeld ec
retn ry of .tbe.NVgro Young
Peopled ChHetlan and Edu
cational Congress that Is to
osnemble in Atlanta in Au
gust. ' A few evenings ago he
made an address to one of
the largest negro congrega
tions ever assembled in Mo
bile, and some of the things
he said, and which his audi
ence greatly Japplauded, are
worthy of re-production nnd
preservation Speaking of the
christian training needed by
the colored race, he said:
'A great hinderance to the
progress ot the race is t h e
tWo oj foUr, bigoted, selfish,
ignorant Baptist ofr Method
ist preacher. He is in every
Community opposing every
measure ol progress."
Unfortunately this is often
true. The negro preacher is
the iliost influential leader in
the race, aud not infrequent
ly the most Unscrupulous,
planning devilment towhich
he incites his followers. Only
the other day down in Geor
gia a negro preacher worked
his congregation up to a
great pitch of eicitementj li

bloddy plagues to come for
their deliverance. Sush men,
though they may be ;tod ig

greatest obstruction to the
well-being and progress of
their race.
Then Lucas took a turn at
some of the doctrines these
'preachers'' were preaching
and some that they ought to
preach and were not. He said
that the result was that the
average tlontb? rn negro was
prone to adjourn all their
ambitions to the happj" day
whefi the negroes will be ad
mitted en masse to 'hog hea
yen and their white eneraie'
be shunted into the goat-pen
and swallowed up in Hades.
On that point he wittily re
marked:

scne. During the session just
closed manyt .measures were
advocated looking to with
drawing the protective tariff
from those articles which are
sJld cheaper 0 foreigners
t huh, Americans, amending
the present jaws and making
severer penalties. Just on the
ev3 of the adjournment of Con
gress Mr., Richardson urged
the majority, now that all
administration measures and
all appropriations were out
of the way, to slay at Wash
ington one week longer to
give consideration to the an
ti trust bills that had been
introduced and pigeonholed.
He might as well liave asked
the Republican members to
Suppport a measure making
them ineligible for reelection.
They hastened to adjourn,
without any action upon the
illegal combinations and sys
tematicdlly robbing the peo
pie.
The truth is that the Re
publican party belongs to
the trusts body, soul arid
breaches. Trusts run the par
ty, foot the bills, and then
write taiing bills to felm
biiHe themselves. The only
hope of relief from the trusts
is in the defeat ol the. party
