the extreme enraki engendered by the
Trivial and constantly .'unfinished'' work

conditions, he regards as quite unneces-

Is III treatment, moral or physical, worth
noticing, and speaks well, and Justly so,
OF the general character of the average
recruit The weak point seems to be to
account for the disregard of the
oath OF enlistment by these good
men, Perhaps that is partly
found in the very informal and
un1mposing way, so unlike the ancient
socFdnaentuBa, in which it is administered,
and especially in the popular feeling
that deserter is more sinned against
than SHINING and therefore to be shild-
ed. But with it all there must be some
lack OF moral fiber. Nevertheless, as
has been pointed out, in great emergen-
cles the enlisted man stands firm. He
does not desert in the face of the enc

glory of the United States soldiers that,

officers by scores discarded their uni

hundreds as unwilling prisoners in
Texas were sorely beset, was false to
his allegiance. Lieutenant McAnaney
would remove the minor but irritating
restraints, especially the tattoo roll
call; would infuse more vitality into the
daily exercises of the men, with indul-
gences for excellence in them; would
give men greater liberty out of uniform,
and would punish with the utmost Sc
verify those offences of the very small
minority which bring disgrace upon it.
The conspicuous dress marks the wear

misbehaves. The essay is written with
force and clearness, many of the views
are original, and all clearly expressed;
and the fact that the author himself has

THE RACE PROBLEM.
A Colored Minister'S Original Views
This PerpIexing Topic.

A Colored Minister'S Original Views on
This Perplexing Topic.
A few Sundays since Rev. w. H.
Sherwood, pastor of the African NJ. e.
Church, of Tallahassee, delivered
lecture to his congregation, having for
his text ''The Race Problem" Among
other things he said, according to the
Tallahassee Floridian:
Man was made to work The construction Of
his hand is evidence of this. God made all
mankind to work. but the negro he has doomed
to labor. 1t is left to his choice, work or per-
ISL, for God has ordained that the negro who
steals shall be caught, and the sooner we
recognize this fact the sooner Heaven and
earth, which seem now to be against US, will
turn in favor.
The recent race wars are but the precursors
of awfuler times yet to come. Futurity Is i'm
penet rable by finite judgment. No conformity
of circumstances enables us to fully solve this
perplexing problem, yet thoughtful observer
of the signs of the times may foresee the ulti-
mate issue. The problem admits Of but one So
luton.
That is this the negro must work. He must
come out of politics. There is nothing in poll
tics for the negro but death. Death to the poll
tician and death for the race he represents.
He is too weak to stem the food. The
North has dropped him and he can not
stand alone and maintain partisan ground.
In fact he is not prepared, If allowed
to share 30 largely as he thinks in govern
mental affairs. Empowered with the use Of the
ballot too soon, he has almost worked his ruin.
He must get some money. What the negro
wants is commercial power; then, brains and
morals with these, he can sway a commanding
influence. Without these he must remain at
the bottom. God and nature put him there,
and promise you the white man will keep him
there. You who are dependent upon these
white people for employment had better make
friends with them. If not, they will fill your
places with the poor element of their own race,
and with catapult Of the combined forces of
money, wealth and intellect they will
hurl US out, of, d.wn and under. What
trouble the colored man is having he him
self is making it. The constant clamor
OF the so-caled leaders of the race for political
position and power fills the white man with APP
prehension of negro rule, thus tanning the
flames of race prejudice. They will not submit
to negro rule, and it can not be expected Of
them. Such is unprecedented. So sudden
change of slave to master more than often
hangs somebody-Haman and Mordecai ex-
amples. The negro race would be the same
under similar circumstances. repeat it. the
negro must work. Let him go to the top by
those resistless superiorities of wealth, char
acter and competence.
Elevated upon this basis he will stand; with
out these he falls. He must give up politics
and come out or he will get killed out, am
giving it to YOU straight
