And, while III tho advancement Of that most

It is by no means certain, that the people

The Status of tho Negro.

tile white people Of tho country by no means
forPhadow injustice to the negro. They know

ent#ted ashis white neighbor to tic safeguards
eef.tbd laws. He must bo protected in his
ppYaph, his property, and all his material
rights; and for his infraotions Of law he must
be puhished in the same manner as tho white
man is. In all other mattors ho must recog-
nize the prejud;oos Of immemoral custom and
tradition, and accept suoh position as ho eau
work out for himself. Ho must rccmomber
also that though freedom is word Of supor-
lativc significance, yet those who CALI them.
selves free aso not always free.
