The Pascagoula democrat-star. (Pascagoula, Miss.) 1878-1920, 1885-07-31

a few ships, and few small vessels
manned by dark sailors, mostly pl-
rates or slaves, or pilgrim carriers,
still hang about the coasts of South
ern Asia or Eastern Africa, but the
fighting navies of the world, and lis
great transport ships, and its mer-
camille marine, are all alike white.
NO DARK RACE
could lombard n white harbor, or
transport an army across hundred
miles of sea in the face OF prohl-
bition from white men, who now ex-
clusively occupy Europe, except
the corner on which Constantinople
stands; who occupy two.thirls OF
North America aud dominate over
North and South America down to
Patagonia who have taken pos
session of Australia and New Zea-
land, aud most of the larger isles
of the South Pacific, who claim, II
they do not possess, the whole OF
Northern Asia from the Ural to the
Yellow Sea, and who dominate the
whole of India, Indo.China and the
Delta of tue Nile. They have late.
lv taken to conquering Africa, and
are entering it at hundred points
at once, seizlng almost silently, GER
tainly without serious effort, huge
slices like French Africa. South |
Africa, Madagascar, the vast valley
of the Niger, and the still more ex-
tensive region drained by the sys.
TEN of rivers called the Congo.
Nor is there much reason to believe
that the process will soon be check
ed. for the white men are urged for
ward by an irresistible spur over
which they have no control. The
increase of the yellow race. which
must once have been so incredibly
fast, has stopped and that OF the
dark race of India, which for
century has been amazing, is being
checked by recurrent famine; but
that of the white people goes on SO
fast that the transport of a huge
army every year across the Atlantic
makes no impression on their num-
bers, aud at the present rate OF ln-
! crease they will In 1894 be a thou
, sand millions, or much more than
. half of then existing mankind.
} The Chinese have recently shown
:, some resisting power; the English
have apparently-it may prove only
a apparently-halted, indecisive, in
e their march up the valley of the
D Nile; but the general movement
: sweeps ever forward, aud within
. the century it seems more than
D probable that every corner OF the
+ earth will be ruled by the white
men, and that tue audax Iapetl
! genus' as Horace perceived them
e. be, will be the only independent
I rlce within the planet which their
! tireless enterprise will then have
D rendered quite visible aud very
; small. Not even internal war ar

+. volition. Because Germans and

y 1t is difficult to read such record

l. old Europe, OF which We make so

!" THE WHITE MANS HERITAGE.
o. This world is the heritage of the

q is another also which Englishmeu
i. will do we'll to think over patiently
"a and, it they can, without hatred iu
4 their hearts. They have no right
4. to anger with the visible will o.
= God. If Mr.. Giffen's figures are cor
!. rect-and, subject to some arrest o
Il existing law, they must be ascorrec'
n as if they were merely unappliet
~ calculations-there Is but one race
