Pythian Building, over Dry-HeatU-Mlller &
Co. '8 opposite D. P. Day vault & Bros, ap-ly
some nlty years ago there was a
dogmatic old squire in the seventeenth
district of ibis, Cass county, whose
name was Jim McGinnis. He bad
plenty of what is called good hone
sense, a determined will and abundance
of prejudice. He won the J. P. ma
chine in that district for about twenty
years, and bis final judgment in a case
was the law of the settlement. Nobody
dared to appeal or carry the case up
for fear of offendintr him and losing
the next case they had in his court.
One time a fellow sued another fel
low fi r the hire of a negro. Judge
arrott was on one side, and Colonel
Abda Johnson on the other, and when
the judge started to read his law from
Greenleaf on, "Evidence," Colonel
Johnson stopped him and made the
point that Mr. Greenleaf was a very
smart man and had writ a power of
good law, but that he was a yankee
and lived in Boston and knew no more
about ' hiring negroes than a heathen
knows about Sunday. The old squire
aekrd for the book, "and looked over
the title page, saw that it was printed
in Boston and so he ruled it out of his
court, and Parrott lost bis case. The
squire said that Mr. Greenleaf lived a
little too far off to be familiar with the
business.
I've seen a good many pieces of late
about the negro and the great southern-problem.
" The people up north
begin to admit that they can't see
through it. ' '
Ever since the war they have been
telling us what to do with the darkies,
and they have been watching us to see
whether we did it or not, and they ac
tually think we would put 'em back in
slavery again if we could. They are in
earnest about this business, I reckon,
for some of 'em die and leave a whole
passel of money for the poor negro and
I'm glad of it. I wish that more of 'em
would die and do the same thing, but
what X rise to remark iB this : They
know no more about the negro than
Mr. Greenleaf did, and their judgment
ain't worth a cent. I would not give a
farthing for any man's judgment about
darkies who hadn't been born ' and
raised with 'em and owned 'em. It
takes a l?ng time to learn the traits
and instincts "of a race of people. The
yankee never will know what the negro
is, for he never knew him in a state ol
slavery. The yankees who came south
sixty years ago, and domiciled with us
know all about him, and I will take
their opinion, butj when I hear these
modern ones philosophizing and dic
tating about him in a consequential
manner, I unconsciously raise my foot
to kick somebody, j There are lots of
folks up about Boston who are looking cljfferent
over tneir spectacles ai us, ana aian 1
know they had a Tewksbury almshouse.
If they would lower their sights they
would have a power of work to do at
home. I bought a' leather purse for
Mrs. Arp once and she won't use it
?or it came from Boston, and she is
afraid it was made out of a human
hide that was tanned from Tewksbury.
Old

ron
hilarity of the
Toombs said. r' I
I love these old darkies, not as my
equals, but as I love my children. I
love them! because they love me and
are dependent upon me. The relation
between the white and black race is by
nature one of protection on the one
aide and dependence upon the other,
and when it ceases to be that I have no
use for the nigger. It is always a
pleasure to me to befriend 'em when
they want my friendship and my help,
but when they aspire to be my equal
and put 00 independent airs, I've got
no further sympathy. ; I ' have been
raised to look upon negroes as children,
children in youth, and children in
manhood and old age. I I didn't have
any hand in making 'em that way. It
is their human nature; and they can't
help it, and I have a sovereign con
tempt for any effort their people are
making to change their relation to us,
for it can't be done, j j
The education of the nigger is a
humbug, so far as to make him a good
citizen. It has been tried already, and
has proved a failure. His best educa
tion is one of contact, close contact
with the white race. If we will let the
negro alone and keep him out of poli
tics he will get" alone very well and
there will be no problem to solve.
There never would have been "any
problem if he had , been let alone. He
has no business with! office or in the
jury box j or. In the legislature, and he
never will have. This is a white man's
government and the white man must
govern it; The Anglo Saxon is the
dominant! race. We don't want the
Chinaman cor the Indian to make our
- a a
iavs. as a laDorer ana a servant ana a
dependent I bad rather have the negro
than any! race upon earth and that
relation to us just euits him, and when
you try to lift him out of i you make
him a fool and a vagabond and render
him unhappy. I . ;don't I want him a
slave any more, for his slavery was no
advantage to us. I had a lot of 'em
myself and I know they were no profit
to me. They were no profit to any
body except a few exacting masters
who made of slavery all the "foul
blot" therp ever, was in if. There is
no problem to solve unless we make
one. - . i-: ; j. ' ;

destiny and not fuss: around because

With a peculiar motion the little woman

among finely dressed peo le- Although
I heard her inquiry as to whether they
were to go "first class," The sonfor
I had gotten that far in conclusions-
went toward the center of - the car to
select a good seat, while the mother
had had seated herself in one near the
door. His bright face beamed as he
ushered, that little, stooped mother to
the seat as tenderly as if she were his
bride. What happiness was reflected
in those faces! They were ; seated in
front of me, with their luggage care
fully stowed away overhead and rough;
ber little bonnet was very simple; ' her
gray hair was smoothed down in front,
and was twisted into a picturesque
Norwegian knot behind: her features
were irrrgular, her face wrinkled, . her
nose large and sharp, and she had no
upper teeth and yet, I never ' saw a
more beautiful face when, after the
son was settled, this little woman turned
and stroked the hair of her son as only
a mother can, regardless of the curious
eyes in the coach; and then, unable
longer to repress the joy of a mother's
heart, she kissed him. Such tender
ness in those eyes, glistening with tears
ihe waa with her boy again I The
heJ3a came just above the top of the
seat and how close they were together,
as they talked and talked over the past.
What memories of the old home were
awakened in the heart of the young
man while the mother recounted, as
only a mother can, those things which
he was most anxious to know about.
When he brought her a drink, when he
pulled the shade, every act was devo
tion. If I could on'y impress upon
8c ns f ad daughters the priceless heri
tage they have in their mother, and
every little act of devotion and love will
some day be a treasured memory, i
calculation may be a little overdrawn,
but the exodus of negroes from Char
lotte during the past few years has teen
sufficient to be felt. The other towns
and cities in this section of the. South
have been affected in the same way, fur
the emigration has been general. -t'
When they leave Charlotte, the
negroes go North to find employment
as house- servants and to West Vir
ginia and other States to work in coal
mines and railway construction. Num
bers of g xxi cooks have gone to Phils ;
delphia, New York and other cities,
the majority to New York, and hun
dreds of able-bodied men have gone to
the coal mines. " They are attracted by
alluring promises of big wsges, agree
able work, short hours and iJeasiot
surroundings. The negro is a highly
imaginable creature, and the induce
ments held out by tne labor agent ap
pear to him ; most promising. The
women are promised employment j as
cooks at wages of $12 and $15 a month
and the men are assured that life will
be one grand, sweet song in a coal mine
or on a railroad for $1,25 and $1.50 a
day. How often are the poor creatures
undeceived! j ;
It has been said, and it must be true,
that many of the steadiest land nest
workers are among the negroes who
leave, for never before wasj therey as
much complaint as tcT the scarcity? of
labor . here at home. Probably a
majority of the farmers in j Mecklen
burg county are this year short of help,
and it is certain that so many house
keepers in Charlotte never before found
it impossible Jo secure "reliable servants,
indeed if they are able to secure any at
all. The emigration of negroes from
Charlotte and Mecklenburg county
may not have materially reduced the
colored population in this locality, but
there seems to be no doubt but that the
number of good laborers and servants
has been reduced. -;.,, . "
The negroes go to New piTork and
West Virginia for the same reason that
so many white people formerly went
to Texas and Kansas to better their
condition. As was the case With many
a white man j who left a comfortable
home in North Carolina for the untried
realities of the West, the negroes often
find but the substance for what they
were promised in their new homes
Their wages may be higher but the ex
pense of living is also greater; and their
privileges.are almost invariably fewer,
Tbey exchange a life of comparative
ease and freedom from care for an en
tirely new and rigorous existence. It
is no wonder that many of them soon
tire of the exactions' and hardships of
the new life and seize the first oppor
tunity to return to the South.

The' doctors of Charlotte have decided
to charge ministers one half regular
ecs. The t doctors have heretofore
.1 .. .r ...
given their ; professional services to
ibinisters. If we were an M. D the
miniEter who was faithful in his work
and did not send for the doctor 'just
juet because his service werj free and
was grateful and showed appreciation
would never he charged one cent, while
the ministerial gentleman who was in
the pulpit for whatvhe could get out of
it and sent for the doctor, every time
one of his family sneezed, just because
bis services were free and had no regard
for the time of day or night he called
the doctor .would be charged a plenty.
in is way 01 giving the preachers profes
sional or other service is all wrong,
when you get down to facts, any way.
Preachers should be paid what they are
worth and charged for everything they
get just like other folks.
