Urged to Fly from the South-StrOng
Words in a Bulletin Circulated among
the southern Men-Urged to Settle In
Texas Politics Brought Forward.
New York Tribune.
Boston, April 2S.-The Principia
club, which has already played so i'm
portant part in inducing the colored
men to emigrate from the south to the
west, is sending out its tenth bulletin
or tract forcirculation among the negroes
by its agents scattered through the south
ern states. This gives further informa-
ton concerning the National Farmers
Association, which has its origin in the
Principal Club, and advocates settle
ment in Texas. But, above all, it advis
es the negroes to ''emigrate somewhere"
I'VE do not care so much" it says,
where or what part of the country you
go to, but in the name of Heaven go
somewhere"
Bearing the political phase of the
movement squareiy to the front, it says:
Get out of that bull-dozing country as
soon as possible, and before the next
census shall be taken, so that you may
be counted out in rebeldom and in where
you go and make your homes. Blot out
your thirty-fi congressional represent
| atives in the solid south, which you
were not permitted to choose, but which
your former masters kindly choose for
you, and send Republicans from your
new homes in the states, where no dazed
president can give them away to rebels
who fought for four years to destroy the
Republic. In 1865 you saved the Re
public, and were rewarded with citizen
ship. In 1867 you saved the Republi-
can party, and were rewarded with dis
franchisement. Now migrate west and
save it again in 1890, and thus heap Goals
of fire upon its head" 1t presents some
fiery extracts from an article in the Oko-
Iona States on the intentions of the Dem
Ocrats in 1880, in which occur these with
other lively predictions: Then will we
recognize the right of secession, a right
that is not dead but sleeping; then will
we decorate the capitol with pictures OF
Davis and Lee, and Stuart, and all the
glorious leaders of the cause that is not
lost but living still" The tract appeals
once more in this fashion: an the name
of God and humanity, in the name OF
your wives and children, in the name OF
your inalienable rights and your civil
and religious privileges, in the name of
Republicanism and equal rights, in the
name of all you hold near and dear to
you and your posterity, we pray you
leave that nest of rebels to their sure po
litlcal destruction, and emigrate to bet
ter land, where you can send representa-
yves OF your choice TO congress from a
loyal people, instead of submitting to a
representation of bulldozers, and now in
a degenerate congress which is disgrace
to civilization. -
The tract contains other literature cal
culated to influence the negroes to move
and is altogether a highly seasoned doc.
ument. The headquarters of the club
and the farmers association, in the top
of business building, is an interesting
place to visit. The association is sys
tematically organizing colonies, and ar
ranges to furnish them with farms at
one dollar and fifty cents an acre. The
agents are full of business, and report a
great movement throughout the south.
