Tho Future Of the Negro In the Un,ed
States

What will be the direction of colored mi
grafton in tho future? This will depend in
part on the policy of states and of the gem
eral government toward the colored people.
Formerly it was a current speculation that
the blacks would drift toward certain states
in the south, which would pass under col
ored control in all respects, to the exclusion
OF the whites, This, however, is not likely
to take place, except by interference of the
general government. II, under the prctext
Of a free ballot, the. bayonet is resorted to
by any party in power at Washington, and
certain states in the south are again brought
under the control of ignorant masses led by
political adventurous, southern society may
be forced into different form from that
which now prevails. Under tho continu-
ance of such policy, if it could be main
tanned, certain states might becom exClu-
sively colored, and society therein sink
toward, a form Of standardization. Tho
whites would eventually be driven out by
political corruption, maladministratOn and
state bankruptcy. And let no man be de-
ceived if tho native whites are compelled
to abandon certain southern localities on
account of uninstructed cOlored prcdomi-
nance in local administration, the Yankee,
or any other who is studious of thrift, will
not take their place Only a few sharpers
and vultures In Search of political car
rion, will DO found there.
But this alternative of the "negro prob
lem" is not likely to be adopted. Hardly
any party is ready TO go into history with
such policy, for, lift tripped, as ii might
it would be bad for such party. 1t is tho
teaching of all history that those who have
had freedom of self-rule have proved them
selves competent to take It and hold it in
spite of dcspots This self-asscrtion is a
necessary condition of freedom and its
maintenance. There is no such thing as
freedom under exotic tutclago. If u people
who are numerically in the majority can
only be secured in their political rights by
national troops then do such people illus
trate political sortdom In becoming the
tools OF tn party in power, and freedom
becomes an abortion by the method used
10 secure it.
The problem, then Is to he determined on
the presumption that local selC-goyernmcut
in the south shall be in tho hands of those
who are competent to direct ii, and that
existing forces under which the south has
multiplied 80 rapidly in population during
the last ten years shall continue to operate

isfactory. There is a future as well as a
present, and If the good people who furnish
supplies of the noedful, whatever il may be,
would only remember that poor people
must live and fix their prices accordingly,
how much happier the world would be. In
the great cities whore the frosts and SHOWS
of winter come on, when the chilling blasts
from the icy north sweep down,
freezing the blood and making the
poor to suffer untold miseries,
then the rich people and the charitable open
their purse strings and give of their plenty
to alleviate the suiferings of their unfortu-
nate fellow beings. Dallas has a few abject-
ly poor people Of this kind, and the city
government, be ii said to its credit and M
honor, cares for them az best it can, aided
by the charity Of numerous good people,
who do not wait to be asked. But this is
not the class In whose behalf we indite
this article. We mean, when we say poor
people, that class ofour citizens who labor
at their trades for wages in various ayoca-
tons, and yot have no surplus money over
their necessary cnrrent expenses. With
wagesat the same standpoint az of yore,
and with all the necessities of life in the
shape Of provisions advanced in price it is
going to bo hard work for them to make
both ends meet, and therefore we ask those
who sell fuel, who bring coal to the city for
sale, to make as small profit on it us
possible. The grocery men, the dry goods
men are doing it and we believe
our coal dealers, will do 1t. 1t is terri
BILE thing TO know that women and
little children are shivering with cold, when
there is fuel within reach, If they only had
money to buy ii, We know that II any
woman with numbed hands and halffrosen
body, was to 90 to any Of our fuel merchants
and say to him that she had not the where
with to make a fire to keep herself and her
children from freezing, that he would give
hor, without money and without price, coal
or wood with which to make her fire; but II
tho price Of fuel, coal and wood, is kept
within reasonable bounds, is sold for no
more than Is necessary for small profit,
when tho winters SHOWS and rains and
freezes sot in, the poor, the men who toll fol-
wages, will be able to pay for their fuel
All who can, ought to lay in Il supply OIL
wood and coal now, for winter use. 1t will
he economy and 1t will put them out of the
market when tho demand in midwinter Is
greatest for fuel, and thus the poorer classes
the mon and tho women who depend upon
their daily toll for a sustenanco, who can
only buy tho necessities Of life in small
quantities, by retail will have better
chance for supplying themselves with fuel,
and at cheaper rates.

THE COLD WINTER Is COMING.

The cold winter is coming, says the poor
man, and It is sad fact that he knows he
must realize. The past summer was an en-
trcmcly warm one, From one end of the
country to the other complaints arose about
tho excessive heat. The fall has set in now,
and we arc near the middle of the second
autumn month, and still the weather is
warm, barring tho cool deliciously cool,
mornings we have now and then. Nowhere
IN Texas has there been frost yet, so far as
wa know, and it is hardly time that there
should be frost, but for oil that we are in.
clined to the opinion that We are going to
have a hard, severe winter, We cannot
give any satisfactory reason for so suppos-
ing; still wo think so. \ hard, cold win
ter is always a trial to poor people, and in
Dallas there arc many poor people, many
people living from hand to mouth, as II
were. Provisions of every kind-aour,
bacon, lard hams, and all
produce-aro higher in price than
this time last year but wages are tho same;
consequently, with the scarcity Of fuel with
which We arc threatened, owing to tho do
mands on the coal mines by the various
railroad companies, from which Dallas has
heretofore drawn her supplies, the proba-
bilitiss GRO that fuel will he scarce, and
therefore high Of price. To tho company
supplying tho Dallas market, the same
company having done so for some years
past, we would respectfully suggest all

Editor Morning HesOs D.: During the recent
session OF the American Public Health Asso-
citation in this city, DR.. Falligant, Of this
city, whilst discussing the diseases OF ami
mails and their possible Transmission into the
human body by the medium OF the animals
milk, and referring more especially to ma
rasmus and kindred diseases from malnutri-
ton, made the startling assertion THAT it
was probable that In many cases Of intes-
final disturbance in children fed Or cows
milk, the disturbance was due not SO Isuch
10 the fact that the milk contained germs q
disease, as that it WAS deficient in nuirltive
elements by reason of the fact that the cow
from which the milk was obtained was ex-
pecting a calf"
II Is astonishing how little attention has
been directed TO this possibility, and to
what meagre extent any light is thrown
upon It by medical literature.
