C, ON JANUARY 1, 1898. Mr. President, Ladies and Gentle men: Once more the finger of Time points to the day of a New Year, with all its hopes and dt sires of better things and better times. The old year is dead; its Borrows and tears are all over and ended, and the things that were are now but a memory. Throughout Christendom the people in gladness hail and greet one another with wiahf-s of happy Nt w Year, and gifts ard mirth and joy make memo rable this day of pe ce and good will. The first day of January is, therefore, a in jst welcome time among millions of our felloe-men, who acknowledge the meek and lowly Naztrene Lord and Savior, and compute time from the day and year of his oirth. But for you ai d for me, my friends and fellow-citizens, this day has a facial and peculiar sig nificance, aside from that attache 1 to it by other peoples. It is not only the be ginning of the chronological year, but it marks also, for us, the bright mornii g of our jubilee of freedom. Thirty tiveyars ago to-day Abraham Lincoln, who died that you might live, gave force and effect to the immortal Proclamation of Eman cipation, and the old vear of slavery was mus enata ana overroiever. Tne terri ble years of torture of buying and sell ing human beings and driving and lash ing them as beasts of burden had come to an end; no lorger were husband and wife, brothers and Bisters, parents and children to be torn asunder by the wan ton ana cruel agencies or human slaverv The night was past, with all its hormrs, and tne blessed day of freedom and lib erty h-d come, and from ocean to ocean. and from the Lakes to the Gulf, the Union was preserved, free from its an cient reproach, and not a single slave crouched in all its borders. Ah! my inenas, mat was a day or gladness and jubilee, such as finds no parallel in all history; and you and I are met here at this hour to commemorate that grand event. Tne day upon which Columbus discov ered America is of long standing fame, honored and cherished by all Americans; also the day of American Emancipation from the cankering shackles of British slavery will alwa s be hailed with special joy and delight. The student of art and languages goes wild in praise of the day upon which the great "Rosette Stone" was exhumtrd from the grave of Egvp ian mystery, from which the French tcuohr patiently deciphered the mysterious Dcj motic and Hieroglyphic characrers, which portray in the Egyptian the high est knowledge in the arts and eciences. B it none of these c ulJ possibly b) as i npirtant to you or to our nation as the great and grand occasion upon which you nave a-sembled here to-day. Not only does this r cca-uon represent the day when nearly five milli ns of human be ings were unfettered from the iron and galling bonds of 250 years, but they were elevated to the highest and mem repre sentative sphfrd of citizenship of the greatest and most favored ra ion on the gl)be, and they were co h d with the rights ar;d powers of eltc ive franchise, admitted at once to all the advantages and privileges guaranteed to any other citizen by our National Constitution. evil and injury and retard our progress and prosperity. But. I need not dwell on this topic ; for all agree, in this State, on this question, forAmerican freedom and American Inde pendence had its birth in this grand old State in the beautiful towns of Charlotte and New Berne, a whole year bef ire the Continental Congress issued its Immortal Declaration of Independence, and the blood of those fearless and upright pa triots, still flows warm in the veins of their brave descendants. I feel free, therefore in all placf s md at all times in this my beloved native State to call upon my fellow citizens, to join me most heartily in celtbrating those historical events and revering the names and memory of those great men who have made our w hole Republic a land of liberty and justice and (quality for ail men of all colors and of all conditions. AN OLD PICTURE. As I stand before vf u I WHAT THE DAY MEANS. There is every reason why we should observe this day of our deliverance frm thraldom with thanksgiving and praise The noble men from the North who wore the blue and fought for the fhg of free dom to all men deserve our gra-eful re membrance, and the black heroes who bared their bosoms to shot and shell and sabre stroke ought never to cease receiv ing our homage and admiration, and they who faced them ought also to re joice with us because slavery was no less terrible to the oppressor than it was to his poor victim. It hampered the on ward march of the development and womanhood, it repressed the noblest in stincts of humanity, it stifled the sweet voices of sympathy and conscience and filtered fear and violence and cruelty and robbery. It made a savage monster of 1 he master, and a beast of burden of his slave. It dehumanized all whom it touched. It was a world-wide stultifica tion of our republic, and the colossal scandal of the nineteenth century of the world, which promised in time to con sume m its moloch embrace all tender parental instincts, all fraternal bonds all neighboring ties, all moral obligations all motives of virtue and honor, all con siderations of patriotism. From this vile institution of blood and fraud the white uiewiiu wore tne gray were just as much freed and liberated by the immor tal Emancipation Proclamation as were the oppressed slaves; and, standing here now in your presence, I can lift up my voice and invite all my fellow citizens, of all 1 aces, of all parties, of all colors, of all creeds, (o come with us to this our festival of joy and thanksgtving, that our country is now, indeed, a Jand of liber, v a land of justice, a laud of knowledge and a land of progress; and that our re public has at last become, in fact, what 1 . LRey9lutonary heroes, who spoke first at Mecklenburg Convention in this ' Old North State," intended it should be, for ever tnd forever: Amen! If time permitted, and it were allow able to turn aside for a mom nt from the mam inreaa or my address, I might con VinPO Q n IT rflQQAr.nKIn - . 1 . - . j .vciuuauio ujau mac it were best for all concerned that the banner wuiuu ine oouinern armies bo bravely followed went down in defeat and de spair. Experience and the unerrire laws of political economy show that a man who works from fear can never ac complish so much as one who works for hope. The slave, under the whip, could not produce one tenth the value that the free man of the North could produce under the hope of having all his earnings for himself and little ones. The slave was kept m ignorance to suit the system. ?e urLh hU8J?'an the South eo rap idly that the Northern hay crop was worth more gold than the Southern cot ton crop, ai d therefore hay was king This was so because justice is better than injustice, knowledge is better than igno rance, kindness is better than ctuelty hope is better than fear, virtue is better than vice, truth is better than error right is beter than wrong, and frtedom is bet ter than slavery. "Righteousness exalteth a Nation, but sin is a reproach to any people." Slavery was a mistake and all the badges and remnants and prejudices which now remain among us from its de caded carcass work the whole people a imagine I can see passing in solemn p oe-Ksion where all the future ages shall see and honor them. John- Brown, ur tr-at d liverer, Abraham Lincoln, our Em ;ncif at r, and Giant and Sherman ami William Lloyd Garrison and Thaddeus S evens and Henry Wilson and Char'e- Sumner and Frederick L uglas and J .hn Mercer Langston, who can tell t e hours of toil and sorrow they felt in order that we might be f e ? Lift up your hearts to them in grateful remembrance on every anniversary of in f.mancipai ion, and teach your xery b .b' 8 to lisp atid love their names, and when fortune shall render you able in pecuniary means to do so, build to them enduring monuments in marble and bror zp, for coming generations to look upm and vece.ate. The terrible experi ences of slavery have not been felt alone bv the colored people of this great Re public. A retrospect of history will show that every great Nation of ancient and modern ti nes has passed this fiery ordeal in its development from barb , nanism to civiitz ition. Egypt that mother of wis dom was but an ancient house of bond age ; ure ce, with its art and philosophy and learning, cons-s ed of 380,000 serfs or slaves and but 20 000 free men. Imperial Kome, with its arms and laws that pene trated and subjugated the remotest known world rested on a basis of slavery and the sturdy Saxons ad Celts of Europe were eold in its market places like cattle in the stab'es. All Europe existed under the p llof feudalism with it- veillanage and vjissaldgd lor centuries aid within less than a century throughout Germany no man could leave his master's villa, while the proud Anglo-Saxon wore around his neck a brass collar with his master's name inscribed thereon and was a thrall forever. Egypt and Greece and Rome perished I rrom the race or the earih, and only frag menlsof their graudurand fameremain as a theme for the school boy and scholar. And with all the disadvantages of race and servitude still clinging to thecoloied people of our Repub ic they are f ir wis r and better and happier than the tuisei able hordes of Europe wh fl ck to our shores seeking liberty and knowl- ege. and a col ored American needs to but casr. his eyes on the descend n s of the once proud Egytiaus on the Nile and the remnants of the Romans in S.cily ai.d Italy to discern how much seperior our fortune is to theirs. But this advantage we enj jy over them cost our ancestors the toil of long weary years. OUR EARLY STRUGGLES. For, they came to this Republic when it wasa howling wilderness. They cleared its forests and ploughed its fild and planted in seed time and gathered in har vest time until the whole wildi rness be came a beautiful agricultural rminirr blooming and blossoming like a trarden. they did all of this as bondsmen whom no m m rewarded or honored, and wh n war swept across the face of the Nation the poor p itient and humble slave, on 1 he and on ine land, fought t uphold the fla of the Union and 1M).000 black s lJiersin more than 214 active engagements won our freedom on the field of battle. Hundreds cn hundreds fell, And they are resting well, Scourges and shackles strong, Never shall do them wrong, On, to the Jiving few, S l Jiers and just and true, Htil them as comrades tried. Fight with them side by side ! Never in fi 1 I or terit Scorn the black regiment! Now, my friends, "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." It took great suf fering to get liberty, it requires great watchf ulnets to keep.it. Iu a free Nation the currents of thought and agitation keep moving against the liberty of the people. Corporations seek to gain wealth at the expense of the people whose laws create them. Demagogues, w th imprac t caUe and visionary ii.eas of political economy and finance, seek to lead the people astray from the tried and true pati.s of policy, which have civpn 11a nco and prosperity. Be on your guard. They will b ar watching. Now dear hearers, one of the most ati iking and interesting series in all of American history is that of the American black man's Emancipation. Justtink of it, more than 4,000,000 of ignorant and destitute human oeings taKen upon themselves new ideas, new cares, important respjnsibilides, em barking, as it were, upon life's broad tcean without food or raiment cimb bating against s ri .us gales of race prejudice and unkind criticism, sailing on a ship without a pilot, or without a compass, without sn abenor, or without a rudder, having been built at a time when slavery prevented d velopment and complection of Negro ships, hated were they and alienated by all ships at sea. Although th-y are destitute of the proper equipments nd ate oft- n thrown off the coast, beaten ba k ward, down the stream by the surging and overpowering waves from the well built and well quipped vessels, m think, I see this host of peo pie who have passed through many sor rows and great tribulations, although the ocean is rough, coming with great rejoicing by the hundreds, yes, thou sands, into t le iiave-ns of education, civ ilization and Chris! ianiry, aide by side, wi, h the other vessels of the sea. r,n mnA l 1 u 1 r A 1 . . iiso we see them coming from all uuections and trom all of the depart ments of life into the ports of wealth and refinement, some owning hundreds of mousacas or wealth, Fome are diplomats some are jurist. Sume ai rhvBiVMoa' some are preachers and Fome are teach ers and pioneers. The thrift, ent rprise and educational advancement of the col ored man have long since festorished our good white frienus, both North and South. The civil service laws which have for some time been spread upon our statute books and which Congress and the whole country are so much agitated over at the present, were mooted and promulgated by some of our Representa tive s in Congress in order to keep the colored man out of the Government De partments. But badly mistaken were they. More negroes than ever dr. atned of have passed rigid and first-class ex aminations, and upon pure merit have been placed in every department of the Government. M dical examining boards have been formed in many of the S )uth ern States with the same and specific thing in view, but this has only served to stimulate his ambition. Thoroughly ed ucated and well roundei-out young col ored physicians are on every hand coming up like ants out of the ground' and upon almost every occasion passing the most critical and creditable examina tions. This Dreiudice also ; fraternity in many of the States, but we are proud to say that it does not exist in this grand old State. This sentiment to keep the colored man down has prevailed in nearly every profession, and we have often wondered why it ras not prevailed in the great ministerial profession. We have fina'ly decided tba, it is not because preachers preacn poorly, Dut because they are paid poorly for their services. I will ask you to allow me to divert for a few moments from the main line of my Bpeech. What we all ought to do in North Carolina is for each to help the other Let the motto be : "Each for all and al for each." Our interests, political and limusiriai, are identical, we can never afford to follow the example of our sister estates, aouih uarolina and Mississippi who have disfranchised half of her wor thy citizens of both races, but of the same class, and that the poor laboring peopie. wriat is good for our white neighbor is good for us, and what is good for us is good for him. Let us come nearer together instead cf drifting fur ther apart, by striking down each others liberties. We were all born and reared together in this good old State, and we want to live peacefully and comfortablv and prosperously together in the land of our rnrth. Political liberty is no play thing, and a'uong me Die -sings or ea-tn are none dearer than civil and political liberty. Behold the atruegles of the brave Cubans for freedom. Men like the immortal general, Antonio Maceo, preft red death to civil and political bondage even as John Knox and Jerome, in olden time, died for religious freedom. If there is one thing more than another that lies near our heart it is that this grand old com monwealth may take the highest place among tne states or the Union, the one to which her commanding position, vast resources and magnificent fcenery and climate, and grand and generous hearted men and women, white and black, en title her; that all her citizens, irrespec tive of party or condition, may enjoy the n"nnrs, weaitn and lame of the most fa vored S ate. North Caro ina is advanc ing with great progress in wealth and Copulation under our protective system. Tnder this p licy the S ulh is adding millions of wealth to her people, and if continued will soon attract large sums f foreign ard American capital for perma nent investrmnt within her borders, making the South, owing to her vist re sources and splendid climate, the richest and most desirable section of the Union. See the changed conditions of labor in this S'ate since the civil strife, the per manent monetary 83 stem and the great facility for transportation to the increas ing and enlarging our markets, which have enlisted the deepest interest of the leading s'atesrnen in her future welfare and prosperity. The old methods of hand labor, which are still useful in many avocatio's. are all uunuited for the new civilization, developments and g owing industries of our Sate and country. The progress in the depart ments of agriculture, mining and manu facture since the war has been something wonderful, and in some instances almost magical in their contrast to former times, all of which is the product of the emancipation. The new condition forces upon us the necessity of providing greater laciuues or transportation, modern ma chinery and new and other markets for our surplus products. Witu these new forma of labor there must be increased educational facility for the training of the artisan to enable our manufacturers to compete with the older manufactur ing States and of Europe. It ia in these interests as well as for local self-government, which is to benefit all classes of our society, that some of the best men of the State are uniting their efforts to se cure. The young rirg generation, who form a powerful factor in the body politic, have no sympithy with the de pressing conditions of the past, and look only to the future for such triumphs as was never dreamed of by their ancestors. The advancement of lit etalism, and the progress of civilization open up to them the whole domain of art, science, litera ture, wea'th and fame, all of which af ford a new and independent realm of thought, and action, and happiness. Upon i s broad platfoim all fair-minded men can stand, irrespective of former party ties. Its policy is to invite men of capital and enterprise that the great nat ural wealth of the State may be devel oped and securing a fair hare of North ern and Western immigration, to place th State in population, in wealth and in influence in the front line of progress.
