haps ef my hopes wuz realized, and
such q Constitooshnel Dimokrat ez
Pendleton or Seymour shood tie
elected, | mite, in considerashun Nv
my long and l bleeve valuable SER
vices, aspire to suthin higher, and
better, and more profitable than a
Post Oils, sich ez | am at present
holdin. | do not complains, for the
posishen hez bin the means nv es-
tablishen a credit vpon which I hev
lived thus far comfortable, but yet
shood prefer place where the salary
wood be suflishent to give me enuff
SO that | Good lay up suthin for old
age. The time is not far off when
my individooel cxertions 4yill not
supply my wants.
l felt good over the victory, and
it seemed to me ez tho we ought to
speak, ez Kentuckyuns, to our
brethren North, instructin NV en-
how to hold the Stats wich they hev
won for us When I beside upon a
pint, I alluz act, and so it WIZ this
time.
[ give notis,by Issal1er Cavitt,t,at
the Corners wood assemble at the
tootin uu the horn. for the'purpose
NV sendin forth the voice NV Ken
tuky TO the stats North. The eve
min come, the horn wuz footed from
the steps Nv the church, and the en-
tire Corners wuz there. Deelsin
Pogram wuz in his reglar seat, Issa-
ker Gavitt wuz in his sainted fathers
place, wich hez gone hentz, Kernel
McPelter wuz there, and also the
others who make up the populashen
Nv the Corners, and their wives. 1t
wuz a glorious meetin, and I wuz a
rubbin my hands and q feelin good
at the prospeck nv an improvin oc-
cashun, when, to my utter disgust,
saw the door open and Joe Bigler,
who wuz born to be my pest, come
in, with Pollock, and twenty OF
twenty five niggers, old and young,
male and female, white, yalier and
black, and all NV EN- took seats to-
getier in the corner Nv the church.
I knowd by the meek look NV the
niggers, and the eggstreem quietood
NV Bigler hisself, that suthin wuz ur-
wich wood Nv course develop itself.
Bigler and Pollock generally de-
velop.
l opened the meetin by obser, in
that the times wore an auspishus
look. The power NV the nigger in
Amerikin politics he'd bin demon
strated. The nigger he'd bin so ma
nipulated in Ohio and Pennsylvany,
ez to Civ us those States, wich We
Good hold eff we choose. But the
Dimocr:sy Nv Ohio and Pennsylya-
ny he'd work to do, wich they can
not neglect with safety They he'd
declared the nigger inferior to the
Caucashen, wich be undeniably is,
and they must keep him so. The
nigger must be kept jist eggsacllly
wher he is to serve ez a irritant to
Dimocrisy. Ohio gives the niggers
NY that Stait certain facilities for
learnin to reed and rite, accomplish
ments wich no laborin class wich is
to, be guided, controlled and worke d
exclusively by sooperior class,
needs or hez any bisnis with. So
soon ez a man begins to reed, he be-
gins to hev an inquirin mind, and
begins to feel ssatisfacshun with
his speer. Let Ohio repeel these
laws to-wunst, that the niggers may
not
Reverse the arrangement" sed
Joe Bigler, risin, "and git 50 be the
sooperior NV the white. Is that it,
Perfesser %
Not eggsackly that" returned I,
not KNOWN wat he wuz drivin at,
''but ex Hevsn ordained the niggers
to be inferior to us, and to serve
us, it looks rutEer dangerous to-
''Give him chance to rise !?
That's what yoor gettin at, I see. l
am, and always wuz a Dimokrat ez
yoo know, but don't shudder from
that cause-not any. hey faith in
the Lord, which yoo appeer to lack,
wich is strange, considerin yoor
perfeshun. Eff my colored friends
here wuz ordained by the Almighty
to allnz okkupy an inferior posish-
un to U.s.. why they'll do it eny how,
onless, indeed, we degrade ourselves
below ther level. Eff / understand
yoor idea, it is that the proud eau
cashun is the only favored race.
wich fixed its own posishun itself,
but that all the other races he'd pla
ces assigned to EN-, wich GodaimitS
hevin fixed, they can't pass. That
bein the case, watts the use, Ferfeser
NV our foolin away our time tryir
to strengthen his laws by any act Nv
ours? Eff the Almighty fixed it so
kin we do it any better than he ??
"But sposn the niger. eff we dom
keep him down by law, shood ris'
above us?n
Il shood unanimously concloot
that ther he'd bin mistake IN tn
figuers, and that we wuz, after all
