RACE WAR PREDICTED
BY AN ALABAMA COLOREC
PREACHER.

torial Bryan to be
Kept Away.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Aug. 10.-An ar.
icle Ia an independent paper ut selma,
Ala, edited by colored preacher named
Bryan, has created a stir In Alabama.
An editorial In tho last issue abused tile
whites for various injustices against the
coiored race, and concluded as follows:
Were Jou (the whites) to leave this
southland, In 70 years 1t would be one
OF the grandest sections of the globe.
We would show you Nossbsck cracker.
how to run country. You would never
see convicts half starved, cepriving hon.
est workingmeu of en- honest living. II
is only matter of time when throughout
this whole State, affairs will be changed,
and, hope, 10 your sorrow.
We were never destined to always be
servants. but, like all other races, will
ard must have our day; you now have
yours. You have received your revolu-
ton and civil wars, and we here pred c,
that at no very distant day we will have
our race war, and we hope as God In
tends, that we will be strong enough to
wipe you out of existence and hardly
leave enough OF you to tell the story. 1t if
bound to come, and just such hot-head-
ed cranks as the editors of some of our
Democratic Journals are Just the right
set to hasten 1t. 1t is fate"
The whites in Selma are taking ste, q

now absent from the city, from ever COM
Ing back any more. The Executive Com
mittee OF the White Republicans Pro-
tective Tariff League, with headquarters
at Birmingham, met here to-day and
passed q resolution denouncing the edito-
rial as incendiary and dangerous, and
rendering their moral, and, If necessa, y,
their physical aid to stop such utterances.
SELMA, Ala, Aug. 19.-There is no
race trouble hero beyond the publication
OF an incendiary article in negro news

WAsuINoToN, Aug. Ex-senator Ppoh
has just returned from a trip along Tia
Canadian border as d member az tbo
Senate Committee to look into The com
merclal relations of the United State
with Canada. Senator Hoar. as cbai-.
man of the committee, will supetintend

from Congress.
TIE Alabama Senator was the enlv
Democratic member OF the committee on
the trip: Senators Butler, of South
Carolina, and Voorhees,, OF Indiana. VINO
represented the minority, were detained
at home, one by illness in his family, the
other ty private business. During the
tour the Senator made survey of tho
political situation In that section, and his
observations were not OF the most en-.
couraging nature from Democratic
standpoint. The Senator says he does
not expect the Democrats to carry any Of
the new states admitted-not even Nom
tana.
Senator Pugh called at the White House
on Saturday TO invite the President to at.
tend the State fsir and exposition to be
held at Birmingham early in November.
The Senator says he wants the President
to become acquainted with some of the
active business men of the South, and Ee
also wants MIN to see that there are live
commercial cities outside OF New Eng.
land. The President SAID he appreciated
the Senator's cordial invitation, but was
not prepared at this time to say whether
or not It will be convenient for him to ac-
cept it. This brought up the subject Of
an extra session, and while the President
intimated that one might be called, he
stated that the question Is gtill und6'
cided.

The "Sound" Camp.
lCoMMUNICATED.l

Some person signing himself F. F. c.,
from Bishopville, Md, 10 writing to the
Morning News OF this city, says:
Ono OF the Wilmington papers In Civ.
ing notice of the Sound camp meeting
sarcasticslly states that 'this is the camp
where the men attend service in their
| shrt-sleeves and womtn worship in sun
bonnets.'
whether or not the writer Is acquaint-
! ed with the people of whom he writes we
do not know, but we arc convinced that
to him a camp Is little more t an reii-
giors frolic where the saints vie with each
other in dress."
l can only say that the writer, whoever
he lie, 1ys of at tangent, with no real
cause for being disgrunllcd. Though he
lives not far from the place where tue
, camp meeting named was held, ho per-
haps knows very little more about the
habits of the people than those who go
there occasionally. did not write the
| article OF which be complains, neither do
know who did, but ain ready to testify
that saw people at church In that VI
| cinity, men in their shtt-sleeves and
| women In sun-bonnete. Some years ago,
when Rev. William Il. Tubhs had chars c
OF Roxanna circuit, the writer was his
guest a coup of weeks, and went with
him to church. There | saw quite mum
ber of ladies In plain sun-bonnets and,
more than that, barefooted.
lie also saw men, sialwart farmers,
come into church bsrefooted and dressed
in nothing but tow pants, shirt and
broad brimmed straw hat. More than
that. many of these pers1nb were men,
hers of church and took an active part in
the services. Nobody ever thought of
their plainness Of dress being derogatory
to their Christian deoortment, nor is 1t
likely that the person who wrote the
article complained of ever meant 1t in a
sarcastic sense. Unless times have very
rapidly changed in that vicinity, very
likely people still go to church and camp
in shirt sleeves and sunbonnets. and 1t is
all to their credi: that they do so.
