cerning the duty of their race. Their
remarks were frequently npplaudcd by

as free men. The signs of the times de-
mand that We shall prove our fitness

churches, then give US colored preachers;
If we have colored banks, we must have
colored bankers; if we have colored COL
leges, we demand that we have our own
officers. We have played the second
fiddle too long; we want-we must have
"a change for the better"
