here the equality ceases-as in cases
between white people. God never
designed that men should be equal.
He made some short, some large,

foolish, some with white skins and
some with dark. He marked his
distinctions all over the human fam

"Men make men equal before the
law that is, they can confer on them
equal civil and political rights, but
they can not make them of equal
stature, of equal wisdom, or of the
same color. No, more can they
make them socially equal Social
equality depends on agreement. The
laws can not force it. I am no man s
equal, socially, unless he agrees to
the equality. No man has q right to
demand against my consent and
this rule is universal and all7peryad-
ing against men. Your race is no
exception to the rule. The honest,
Industrious and frugal among you
do not admit to social equality the
dishonest, idle and wasteful of your
own color, nor do white people. So
cial equality is simply matter OF
private agreement, and is not to be
controlled by any public law. When
ever the black people desire social
equality, and the white people agree
to yield it, We shall have it and not
before. 1t takes two to make a bar
gain, and I risk nothing in saying
that neither whites nor blacks in the
South want tomake thisbargainnow
have but one idea to add. It is
this: there will be social equality in
the South between the races quite

sit is the duty of every intelligent

with them on matters in which the

can be no harmony as to matters
