"Our people," said he, "are no long , er disposed to sit down ana let Uiini; co on. They are replies, rsci' to ' take a hand; this Is an evidence of our , progress In education. There is a new sense abroad of individual self-eonA doooe. - - - "Rut there is one thins; 4 that dis tresses and pussies me.

If a fool negro does a fool thing, we all , charge It against the entire race, put . it in the papers and. have a dreadful time about it.n And if a white man happens to say a fool thing, we make 'it into a great matter and are ready to - fly at one another's throats about It? v wow wnera ts to sense in tour - fit is distressing.
