Dl. rl: louve noine ai nigiiL when it is possible to remain there. do not lea but when we have occasion to be up street at late hours we have never failed to observe some boys from eio-lit to sixteen years of age .going to and fro in crowds, and using- lan guage that would shock the modesty of any invent man. Some parents say it is impossible to keep their boys in doors at night. We think it is getting to be a serious matter when a parent can't govern boys from eight to sixteen years old. Wo have had .some of them to tell us their boys would Hp otT without their knowledge. Due offense of that kind woui; ite ad a iioy. who nu.s tno rirht kind of a parent, would wish to com mit. J, eat her straps, cow-hiues or shingles could soon cure a boy thus inclined if propeily applied. It has been said that children, when young step on our toes but when old er step on our hearts. A great deal of the latter stepping could be avoid ed if the subject were taken in hand in time. When a young tree is plant-! ed. however crooked it maybe, it can be straightened by proper care, but u,t u -Tmv f,n' :i tVu' -v,';u's an try to straighten it and you w and then ill fail. The boy resembles the tree in this particular. M t boys need frequent chastising to keep them in tin path of the upright. Let every parent, who has boys, try to instill into them a high sense of honor. This can be done, but it requires both time and patience to accomplish the work. The world is getting' too busy to find time for boy culture. There are parents, we mean fathers, who seldom ever see their children awake. They go from their business lata at night, and leave for the same early in the morning. The children grow to manhood without any special training by the fathers. Mothers cannot do all the work. All business men could do just as much business as they now do and spend a third of their time with their families if they would unite upon a plan. The profits of business men are consumed by the expense con nected with night work. Save your boys while you can and in after life you will save many heart aches. Picked ii at Random.

Enclosed I send you I'ishop Turn er's reply to inf letter in last week's paper. Will you please publish it. liishop Turner is the very best type of his race, and all who know him re spect him. For thirty years he has been before the people of Georgia as a considerate thinker and a conserv ative actor in all matters that concern the welfare of his race. I have no issue to make with the bishop in re gard to the honesty of the negro in the interior of Africa. If his dis honesty is not a race trait here then there is no apology, no excuse, no ex culpatory conditions. "Abnormal ized environments and povertous conditions," will not account for thefts of earrings, breast-pins, lace handkerchiefs, parasols and such thing's that are neither food nor clothing. The nurses and house maids who steal these things can all read and write, and most of them are much farther advanced in the school books, and they are all members of the church in good standing. liut the bishop speaks the truth when he draws the contrast and sav that one white man will steal more at one grab than 1.000 negroes will in forty years. The negro will di vide with you. but the white man. if he steals at all, takes all he can get. The white man will overreach and cheat and deceive in trading. He will get the best of the bargain if he can. but the negro is not given to cheating. He does not know how to drive a bargain and consequently is generally the cheated party. . All this is true, but is it better for a thousand negroes to steal a little than for ten white men to steal much? One cashier who embezzles one hundred thousand dollars can be handled and ia'ded. and drop out of ' sight and memory, but a thousand j little petty thefts committed by a j thousand different negroes keep up a continual aggravation. Dishop tur ner and many other sympathetic writers on this subject are too apt to lay all the blame upon the old de funct institution of slavery when the fact is that not a negro under forty years of age has any recollection of its hardships, certainly not one un der thirty. Hut most of the negroes who c rowd the jails now are under twenty, and have really had better school advantages than the poor white people in the country. T was brought up with the negroes in and around the homestead, and there was no kinder master than my fatlnr. I have no prejudice that I am conscious of, and yet I assert that as far back as I can remember, the family negroes would pilfer little things. For forty-four years of mar ried life we have never been without tu.m as servants in our household. anj j knovv of but one who was per fectly honest. Sometimes I have turned away to keep from detecting them in the very act, and my solici tude now is for them and not for my self. Is there no way to stop it, must they keep on filling up the jails and chaingangs, keep on drop ping out of sight and memory, keep at work with a sentinel and a gun always in sight? Is it not better to punish with the lash of the whipping post for these petty thefts and turn him loose for another trial? Now stealing does not degrade or disgrace a negro like it does a white person. We all recognize that and continue to hire them. We condone the offense before it is committed. One of the best servants we ever had said to me when T complained of her pilfering1: "You don't miss what I takes." They are always kind and they love to do you a favor. They are good companions and trusty mes sengers and if we could pick our choice I would rather have them for servants or for laborers than any race I know of. But among thein are to be found all over the land many who are brutes devils incarnate fiends in human form, and these seem to be increasing in numbers. The sentiment of black heels on white necks is bearing fruit. To ex terminate these the lynchings will go on and all the world says amen, whether the brutes be black or white. Nothing but the motto of Davy Crockett is wanted. '"Be sure you are right, then go ahead." He sure of the right man. then go ahead. Mistakes may have been made, but I don't know of one certainly not one that was established. No good man. no reputable citizen is in any danger, and if lynching will save the wives and daughters of our people from these outrages, then let the summa ry process go on. It would save them if the negro preachers ami teachers and editors would cry out against the outrages and quit complaining about the lynchings. If they do not begin it soon they too may be held responsi ble. The sons of Jacob slew all the males of Sheekem for the sin of one towards their sister. This horrible ci line is spreauuig rupiuiy aim one m s reported every day i 1 in the uaily papers. I never heard of but one case in the days of slav ery and the heap of stones where the negro was burned remaincth there until this day. One case occurred in Comanche count', Texas, four years ago and every negro in the count' received orders to leave with in twenty-four hours, and they left. It will not do to tamper with a peo ple driven to such desperation as these outrages always impose. The dead body of one poor girl will fire a nation for vengeance. It is idle in the bishop or anybody else to talk about the law andalout presumptive innocence. Better begin to counter act the influences that prompt the outrage. Better cry out from the housetops against all the crimes that are sending the negroes to the chain gang or to death. Figures do not lie. Crime amomg the negroes is in creasing at a much faster rate than population, and ''abnormalized en vironments'' have nothing to do with it. It is too much education of the' kind, and too little work. Four hundred thousand dollars of the school tax was spent upon them last year, and the question remains un answered "was it -wasted?" The cry of "prejudice" is worn out. It came from the North and continues to come. For thirty years the negro has been deluded with the idea that his is not an inferior race, and that he should be set up side by side so cially and otherwise with the whites. This will never be done. It is against nature and shocks the senti ment of our civilization. What con cerns us is, how shall we stop his progress in crime? Bill A iti'. liisllol' tcrxkk's i.kttku. Atlanta. Ga., July 2'X Mr. Bill Arp Hear Sir: T am a regular read er of your articles when I am at home and even when I am absent the papers are saved so that I may per use them' if time ermits. While I concur in a vast deal that you say. it sometimes happens that I am com pelled to differ, although 1 regard you as an honest. l!d writer. I ful ly recognize the fact that a white man in this section of the country must respect the popular prejudices that exist against my race, or forfeit his influence among the whites. No white man dares to speak in defense of the negro and command the re spect of the whites. It matters not whether the negro is entitled to it or not. You. however, possess the courage to occasionally say a kind word in our behalf. But in your lat letter you innocently, and I believe conscientiously. but ignorantly, make use of a sentence that is not wholly true. Nevertheless I am not surprised at your lack of better in formation, because you have never had the opportunity of informing yourself to the extent that would enable you to speak authoritatively. You say: "Their inclination (the negro's) to steal is natural." You doubtless intend to convey the idea, by using the term "natural." that the African races are instinctively given to stealing; for if it is natural it is as much their nature to steal as it is to be black, to have curly hair, or to be a separate race in any par ticular, l'lease allow one who knows as much of the negro as any one who breathes the breath of life, and cer tainly knows more of him than it is possible for any white man to know one who knew the negro as a slave, knows him as a freeman, knows him in civilized Africa and knows him in heathen Africa. 1o inform you that the negro races naturally are the most honest specimens of humanity that tread the globe. In regard to the petty larcenies which exist in this country among my race where their natural inclinations have been distorted by a series of circum stances, which I shall not at present attempt to enumerate. I shall say nothing. If the wholesale charge you bring against the negro in regard to petty larceny be true, which I contend has grown out of his abnormalized envi ronments associated with the wants of civilization which his povertous condition prevented him from sup plying, I am very grateful that you do us the justice of restricting it to petty larceny, for one white man will steal as much at a single grab as a thousand negroes will steal in forty years. If the American negro will steal from the white people it is some con solation to know that he will take a little and leave much. Justice and honor both compel me, however, to admit that much you say about the negro is too true, but I cannot en dorse your position in condoning the lynch mobs of the land, as every man is innocent, according to the theory and genius of civilized nations, until he is tried and found guilty by a ju ry of his peers, equals or associates.

Washington, D. C, July 2'J, 181)3. S Secretary Carlisle is the only mem ber of the cabinet at present in Washington, and he has been con fined to his house for several days this week by rheumatism, but next week President Cleveland, and the other members of the cabinet will be here, as they have leen notified that the l'resident wishes to submit the first draft of his message to Congress to them and have a full and free dis cussion of its contents before it is finally completed. Attempts are numerous at trying to guess the nature of the President's coming message, but it is nonsense for any one outside of the cabinet and a few close personal friends of Mr. Cleveland and they won't talk alwiut it to pretend to know. The mere fact that he will send another message to Congress at the opening1 of the regular session, even should the extra session remain in session until then, and the general belief is that it will, makes it presumable that his message to the extra session will be confined to what it is called to legislate uiton finance. And if this presumption lie correct it will not indicate any change of opinion as to the necessity for tariff and other reforms advocated by the Democratic party during the last campaign. Merely that circumstan ces have made it necessary to take up finance first. Speaking of reform. Commissioner Lochren is going right ahead in the programme mapped out for the re formation of the pension roll, not withstanding the howl that is being raised by a few Congressmen whose constituents have been suspended. It has already been discovered that, in addition to the large number of pensions granted under the last ad ministration without proor exami nation of the applicant and his pa pers, there were thousands granted illegally, knowingly and wilfully. Only those granted under the act of lS'.'D have yet been examined and no others can be taken up for a long time. The suspensions up to date number nearly 0.000, and if the same average be kept up in the entire '70.000 pensions granted under that law the total number of suspensions will be something like 75.000. The examination is very thorough and systematic and only those cases showing clearly some irregularity or doubt of the right of the pensioner to receive the amount he has been getting are susiiendod. and few, if any. of those who get restored to the roll upon a re-examination will get as large a pension as they have been receiving'. One of the most encouraging signs to those who exiect financial relief from the legislation of the extra session is the fact that, while most of the Democratic Senators and Rep resentatives have ideas of their own as to the legislation needed, a major ity of them express themselves as willing to hear the arguments of tl.ose who advocate other ideas, and to be open to conviction if the other fellow's argument be the best. If this feeling be shared by a majority of the Democrats in lxith House and Senate the difficulty of reaching some satisfactory basis of compro mise will be greatly losenod. But it is going to take time to bring alnmt that result, and wise people will not expect immediate Congressional ac tion on this inqiortant subject. Good legislation is better than hurried leg islation, and I have yet to find the first Democrat who does not firmly believe that good legislation will be one of the certainties of tins Fifty- iniru congress. (Jen. Duncan S. Walker, chairman of the committee on invitations of the centennial celebration of the lay ing of the corner-stone of the Capi tol building, to be held September 18, next, this week sent invitations to the Governors of all the States and their staffs to participate.

I f the Farmers Alliance through out the State is in no better condi tion than it is in Mecklenburg coun ty, then as a whole it is in a very poor way. A good deal of talk has followed the recent annual meeting of the Mecklenburg County Alliance, and most of it comes from those who are. or have been identified with that order. That things were not all bright, there can scarcely be any doubt, but just how the Alliance in this county has dwindled down can hardly be realized, yet as the state ment comes from an Allianceman. and one who did not scruple to give it in public, it must Ik accepted as a fact until otherwise proved. The statement referred to was made to a group of people at the court house yesterday. It is to the effect that at the annual meeting, the roll call showed l.Vi members of the County Alliance.

A few days ago seven tot officc money orders from one neigh borhood in this county were present ed at the post office hero for pay ment, all of them having been sent by Maj. W. A. Graham. trutee of the businos fund, to persons who had applied for a return of their money. For this return of their money these persons are indebted to the last legislature, which amended the charter of the Alliance so as to allow them this right, and for which simple act of justice the Third party leaders are abusing the legislature so severely. t i - Wouldn't It o Pattern Afler. The Shelby Aurora of last week went into a theological discussion and undertook to prove from the Bi ble ami its intellect that there is no perfection here. Evangelists Cook and Quattlebaum were holding a meeting in a tent at Shelby and Brother Cttok held the Bible in tine hand and the Aurora in the other and denounced the latter as '"a rot ten sheet." Said lie hadn't sinned himself for eleven years. Editor Miller waited on him and he at first denied the language and afterwards promised in the presence of witness es, to retract it; but he left without retracting and the editor is still of opinion that there is no perfection here.
