race question:
There is no new remedy that
meets our Case and there is no

lutte and unbroken unity OF the
body of our white population.
When the day comes, when polIti-
clans shall cease TO work this dan

when both the great political EAR
ties shall realize that "A great race
issue presents no party question,
but Is a gigantic social problem
which can never be solved until it
Is lifted high above the plane of
mere partisan warfare, then some
thing broader aud more permanent
may be evolved and accepted; but
now u only safely is in our unity

Inde us should be discouraged and

Okra Fibre.

"rhe fibre ckra, which | have

ten>ively, Dies not belong to the
family of grasses, but TO the hibiS-
n family. This plant will grow
in any corner of The United States,
requiring bul 80 to so days of warm
weather to bring its fibres to that
degree of maturity which makes
1t So pre- eminenlly fiji to superoede
sisll or even manila hemp.
I'm the South we can grow two
crops a year, provided the soil is
rich. There cannot be the slight
est doubt about The productive
ness and great returns oil this plant,
as its cultivation and the prepara-
lion Of It's fbres are very easy.
When The stalks have attained
an average length OF A TO 81 feet,
they are cut close to the ground by
either a sickle, Il srythe or Il now
ing machine, and Immediately de-
~corticated, because the pitch is
most easily separted from The bark
as the sap Of the liant is fresh aid
abundant.
The decorticating machine |
have uSek is based upon the princi-
pie OF circular knives. Ii will
peel the production of one acre of
okra stalks, say 300, 1000 or 100000
stalks, in ten hours without Injur-
ing or spelling the fibre any what
ever. The degumming of the fibre
is done best in stagnant water and
will be achieved in five or six days.
BIT here in the South white lanor
is very scarce and negro people do
not want to gel wet, so we are com
PEELED to degum by means OF ma
chimes, assisted by water heated by
steam, in which some solvent mat
ters have been dissolved.
"The expenses of culture and
of preparing The fibres Will not
exceed two cents per pound, while
the fibre for binding Irvine purpo-
ses will command a ready market
at eight or ten cents per pound.

a respectable hearing here, nor
anywhere else on the face of The
globe where you are so ell.known
and so justly held in contempt as
in this city. The places here that
nnce knew you will know you no
more; the generous hands that
once net yours in friendly grasp
will clasp your filthy fingers never
again. Bye.bye, Burnle, may the
deyll, the master you so faithfully
serve, take a liking TO YOU. and re.
ward you according to your deserts.
but, tor us and ours, we cordially
despise YOU, if We can hate a thing
so utterly contemplate. No de-
cent white man in Mississippi
wishes TO hear either you or any
OF your associates IN infamy. Hav-
ing made your bed with hogs. YOU
must sleep in il, heas or no fleas."
