THE NEGRO SHOULD GOTO AFRICA

Tho Southern Senator Says There Is an Ir-
repressibIe Conflict between the Races,
which Final Separation Alone Can Cure.
business Of Senate and House.
WASHINGTON, Jan. SIN the senate, Mr..
Morgan, of Alabama, spoke at great length
on the bill Of Senator Butler TO provide for
emigration Of colored people from the
southern states He expressed himself in
favor Of voluntary emigration Of the col
ored people from the south. having reached
the conclusion that there was a natural in
congruity and an irrepressible conflict be-
tween the races which nothing could cure
except their final separation. The return Of
the negro race 10 Africa was the final and
only solution OF the problem It was un-
deniable that the aversion between the races
had greatly increased since the abolition Of
slavery, and it would increase so long as a
large proportion of the population was Of
the African race This feeling was not 90
intense in the south as in the north II was
not so strong between the negro and his for
mer masters as it was between the negro
and those who had never owned slaves
Negroes should Return to Africa.
He maintained that Africa was the natural
home Of the negro, and, quoting the descrip-
ton of the Congo basin from Henry NJ
Stanley, concluded that that would be the
best location for the American negroes as,
by their efforts, civilization would be more
rapidly promoted in Africa than through
any efforts of the whites Mr.. Morgan
maintained that Central Africa seemed des-
tined for the future eonquests Of ciyiiiza-
tion, and complimented the efforts Of the
king Of Belgium in that direction.
