The CATHOLIC VIEw-To us it seems that
no two other races ever lived so happily and
harmoniousTy together as the white and
black races on this continent. Even uuder
the horrible injustice Of slavery the whites
ihave been prosperous in at least pecuniary
point of veiw, and the blacks have increased
and their happiness has not been marred by
a hostility of races Indeed. we believe the
evils of slavery came to the masters from a
lack of the antagonism complained Of. The
fact is, no such hostility exists. The most
popular waiter about a house or hotel is the
colored waiter. and no man, unless he is very
low in the scale of humanity can say honestly
that he hates a negro because he is a negro.
If questioned, the most prejudiced admits
that he likes the negro in his place. Where
that place Is, makes the question we are
called upon to solve. And in the response.
let US fall back upon duty as Christians. We
can with safety do justice, and leave the
consequences to God. The adaptability Of
human nature to the Inevitable is wonderful.
Let US do what is right. and believe that
good will come oft Catholic Telegraph.
