WORDS or WISDOM.


Inc Common-sensc Views OF = Negro who
Understands the Race problem
a letter written BY John T. Shufton,
OF Orlando. Fla. which has been exten.
sively published has attracted attention
BY its extremely temperate treatment
OF the race question in the South. The
writer Is colored man who has OBJ
tanned . collegiate education BY his own
Efforts, and who is much respected for
his merit and good sense. He thinks
that the negro is subjected to no disad-
yantages in the South that any other
people would not be subjected to who
keep themselves poor and dependent
upon more progressive and thrifty
race. Even their disadvantages. he
says, are more imaginary th-n real.
Every avenue Of employment il open TO
them, and they have the same chance 30
become prosperous and happy through
industry and economy that their white
neighbors have.
Equally TO the purpose is what Mr..
Shufton has to say OF the conduct Of
fanatical leaders, pretended preachers
and politicians Of the North who are
trying to bring on war OF races in the
South He regards them as the worst
enemies Of the Southern negro. and
begs them to desist from their .'diabolic-
81 attempt TO invite defenseless people
70 attempt their own destruction
After speaking Of the efforts OF mis-
guided members Of his race to force
themselves into positions OF social
equality. which IL is hopeless for them
TO seek, he sums ND his views Of what is
best for the negro in these words:
Let the colored man turn from all or his
