Mr. Olden eays: "IngalUs has qyerlooked orbeen blind to the fact that the negroTace ih aM its oppression has always been found inoffensive and, never known to tesort to any measure which might result in the destruction of life and property as a means redressing the wrongs in inflioted on him y the dominant race. Ingalla appears to be; ignorant of the fact that in all - strikes in this country which have resulted in the loss of life and destruction of millions of-dollars worth of property, the negro has never been the inaugurator of a single s one. Why IngaKs advised the negroes fo re sort to sword and torch, in my opinion, is because he desired the extermina tion of the race, which would surely follow if his advice were carried out. or to see that every opportunity which tended to advance the interest of thr negro socially and politically was for ever buried so deep that the blast of the political trumpet could never resur rect him. IngaJls says the nego wears heavier chains in liberty than those he wore in servitude. No man living today who knows anything about the negro's condition in slavery would for a moment consider such a statement, which is devoid of all common sensed' M'KINLEY PETITIONED TO PERMIT A REVIEW Of Volunteers From the Philippines at St. Louis in Av gust. n Washington, May 29.
