THE SAME FOR YoR AS FOR Us.

You have your living to earn rs well as we.
You will have to use all your abilities, all
Your energies, all your faculties. and make
the most of them you can. The laws do
not favor you, but they will thoroughly
protect you; and in three months if we
succeed. the eolOred people viii be so disa-
bused that the same men can never deceive
them again-never again.
But suppose we fail !; and we may fail. A
voice, I'VE are not going TO fail!"1 Our
great danger is this: If the colored men
did not believe that the power was against
us. that the money was against US; if they
did not realize that the Treasury, the army,
that one hundred thousand officeholders
were all banded against us, in force which
they believe we cannot overcome, they
certainly would no. be so universally hos
tile TO us. They think we can not succeed,
and they want to be on the winning side.
That is a part OF it.; but they are also delu-
ded in regard to our purposes. We say We
are not your enemies; we viii not be your
oppressors-we viii not, though you have
done us injustice. We viii try, as well as
we can, to have your children educated,
enlightened, so that the mistakes you have
made can not be made over and over again.
That is where we stand.
