THE coLohkD RACE
Ihave thought that human impu.
dcnce had reached its limits ages and
ages ago. Ihad believed that some
time in the history of the world, i'm.
pudencc had reached its height, and
SO believed until I read the congratu.
latory address of Abraham 8. Hewitt,
chairman of the National Executive
Democratic Committee, wherein he
congratulatcs the negroes Of the south
on what he calls democratic victory
| in the state of Indiana If human
limpudencc can 20 beyond this, all
can say is, ii never has. ILaughter.
What does he say to the southern
people, to the coiored people? lie
says to them in substance, "The rca.
son that the white people trample up.
on you is, because the white people
are weak. Give the white people
more strength, put the white people
in authority and, although they muir.
der you now when they are weak,
when they are strong they will lei
you alone. Laughter and applause.
Yes; the only trouble with our
southern white brethren is, that now
they are in the minority, and they
kill you now, and the only way to
save your lives is to put your enemy
in the majority" That is the doctrine
Of Abraham s. Hewitt, and he con-
graduates the colored people Of the
south upon the democratic victory Of
Indiana. There is going to be great
crop of hawks next season-let us
congratulate the doves. Laughter. ]
That is il, the burglars have whipped
the police, let US congratulate the
bank. Laughter. That is it. The
The wolves have killed off almost all
the shepherds, let us congratulate the
sheep. Laughter and applause.
This is the same Abram s. Hewitt
who has endeavored to set the rotten
teeth of democratic SANDER into the
live and quivering flesh Of that splen-
did man James u. Blaine. lCheers.
Inc same hewitt that congratnlates
the negroes OF the south upon the
prospects OF their assasslns getting
into political pcwer-the next thing
we hear from him is the SANDER
against the name and reputation OF a
man OF whom ne ls not nt TO speak
even In terms ofpraise. Applause.
In my Judgement the black people
nave suffered enough. They have
been slaves for 1OO years, and, more
than all, they have been compelled to
Keep the company OF the men who
owned them. Laughter and ap-
plause. Think OF that. Think OF
being compelled to Keep the society
OF the man who is stealing from you
ihlnk OF being compelled to live with
the man that sold your Wlfef Think
OF being compelled to live with the
man that stole your child from the
craauc before your very eyesl Think
OF being compelled to live with the
thief OF your life, and spend your
days with the white robber, and to be
under his controll The black people
have suffered enough.
For 200 years they were owned and
bought and sold and branded like
cattle. For 200 wears every human
tic was rent and torn asnnder by the
bloody, brutal hands Of ayarice and
might. They have suffered enough,
During the war the black people were
our friends not only, but whenever
they were entrusted with the family,
with the wives and children of their
masters, they were true to them.-
They stayed at home and protected
the wife and child of the master while
he went into the field and fought for
the right to sell the wife and the right
to whip and steal the child OF the very
