THE NEGROIN THE NORTH.

The inconsistencies of the human
mind are wonderful.
Auburn, New York, last fall gave
Mr.. Harrison 1922 votes to 2,214
for Cleveland, largely on the
ground, it is presumed, that Mr..
Harrison, if elected, would secure to
the negroes of the South equal rights
with the white people, but the ex-
perienee of the Rev. j. Francis
Robinson, Baptist preacher, rec
emily in trying to get shave seems
to show that justice is pill the
Auburnites do not themselves take.
The preacher in question is a man
of good character, and was visiting
another Baptist minister in Auburn.
The day after his arrival he went to
a BARRIERS shop to get shaved, but was
refused attention. He went to a
number of such shops, but was
everywhere turned away. The
Rev. f. D. Penny, the minister
Robinson was visiting, offered sever
al of the proprietors of shops a
dollar to shave his friend, but in
vain
ct is against the rules of the
trade" said the BARRIERS, "to shave
colored man"
How is this to be explained? The
colored man is allowed to vote free
" in New York-and get his vote
counted-but this does not secure
him equal rights there. Even in
States where the party he votes with
is in the majority he is as badly off
as in any of the others.
Such facts cast doubt on the
possibility of altering everything in
the South by using the Federal
power to secure to the colored people
here the right to cast ballots and
have them counted.
The american Citizen, journal
published by colored men in Kansas
City, is decidedly of the opinion
that the Southern policy" of the
present administration will fail on
this point. The Citizen thinks the
policy of dividing the white vote of
the South on economic questions
will succeed, and will secure the
counting of the negro vote, but its
success will not profit the negro.
"Will it benefit his social or civil
condition ?" the Citizen asks. evil
it make less distinct the lines of
caste? Will it lift him up in the
minds of the Southern whites to the
dignity of man and citizen? We
think not. The negro's vote is
counted in many of the Middle and
Northern States, and his presence at
the ballot-box excites no comment,
and vet even in those States his i'm
munities are abridged"
The disposition Of some of the
people of these States to exact more
of their Southern fellow-citizens
than they do of themselves is curious.
Is it compliment to their civic
Or is it only indiffer-
ence to their welfare, together with
want of proper sympathy?
We have many advantages in the
extent of our territory, but it is a
pity that thepeople of one part of it
should be so content to see the peO-
pie of another part suffer inconven-
fences they repel from themselves.

There is to he GRAND reunion Of

There is to be a grand reunion of
native North Carolinians, now resi-
dent in other states, at Raleigh at
the time of the Southern industrial
display and State fair, which begins
October IA and continues five days.
The lowest possible rates have been
furnished by the railways, and there
will be no obstacle in the way of
those who wish to revisit the old
scenes and renew the tender associa-
tons of past years. The sons of
North Carolina are scattered all over
the country, and many IF them have
won distinction in the various avo-
cations of life and reflect credit on
their native State. Even Connecti-
cults favorite son, Gen. Joseph r.
Hawley, says the Baltimore Sun, is
proud to claim North Carolina as
the State of his nativity, and will no
doubt figure conspicuously in the
coming reunion. It will doubtless
prove a most pleasant affair.

The Greensboro North State says
the prohibition candidate for Con-
gress in the fifth district last year
has been given a position in the
revenue stamp office at Reidsville
under the new Republican admin

The candidate referred to was DR..
S. Montague, who has good prac-
tice in this city and has no need for
an Office.
Another Washington girl has

Crossed the Ocean for Her Lover.

The Hillsboro Observer tells this
romantic little story of an Orange
county girl:
"About two and half years ago
Mr.. Julian Brown, of Hillsboro, left
here with DR.. Florence Cheek, under
contract to work with the Doctor
five years in Siam. Since leaving
home Mr.. Brown and Miss Omie For
rest, of Orange, have been carrying
on correspondence which resulted
in their engagement Recently Miss
Forrest received a letter from Mr.
Brown telling her to come to Singa-
pore, where he would meet and wed
her, as he could not get off to come
to this country. On Tuesday, July
both, Miss Forrest took leave of
mother, sisters and brothers, at the
old home near Hillsboro, and took
the cars for New York, from which
place she will sail for Singapore.
Miss Forrest is about % years of
age, rather good looking, and has
fair education.
