THE NEGRO SOLDIER.

The G. A. r. has met in national
encampment, taken the Negro troops in
as full fiedged members, paraded the
streets and adjourned, aud the Repub
lican party yet lives. IF Mississippi and
Louisiana attempt to break up the Re :
publican party at the south or at the
north because the G. A. r. fellow ships
with the veteran in black as she does
with Il veteran in white, they will find
themselves no less disappointed than
they were in the idea that they could
lick the north in the civil war of 81 IS.
Secession coming from the south
states, particularly Louisiana or Mis-
sissippi, means defeat to the seceders.
The north is always ready to crush
the head of the human vampire that
raises his head as secessionist,
whether he be an eA-conftderate or an
ex-federal soldier.
The Negro soldier will do TO march
with and fight along side of in the
time OF war, but he will not do to sit
with, sing with anal march with in the
time of peace, ell? On the battlefield
the Negro soldier was stationed di-
rectly in front of the white soldier.
and i'll the range Of the thickest shell,
but now since the shells have ceased
to fall and the smoke has cleared away
the Negro soldier must be relegated to
the rear or off aside to himself.
The q. A. r. did wisely in voting
down The attempted discrimination
against the colo! ei veteran.

AFRo-AMER1cAS LEAerE vrrrrxe

The meeting of the Afro-Amarican
league OF the United States, which con.
vened at Knoxville, Tenn. last Tues
day was not as satisfactory. in point Of
attendance, as was desired. This was
due. no doubt TO the fact that north
ern delegates failed 10 attend because
OF their dread of the prejudice existing
against the race in southern cities
Then again, since the last meeting in
terest seems 10 have abated. The
league was never organized on a prop

started out with. 1t was a national af-

lstied with his mission and ready to re-
sign The belief seems current that in
case he does, it will be long time be-
fore his successor is appointed The
unsettled condition of Hayti offers an
excuse for the president to withhold
the appointment of his successor, but
we are inclined to the belief that de-
layal in this matter will not be con-
strued by the great body of Afro-Amer-
leans, who are allied to the republican
party, in this light.

Considerable opposition is being mani
fest among colored G. A. r. men to
holding the next annual eneampment
in Washington, d. c.
This opposition is due to the pref
udice existing against the race in
Washington. 1t has ever been a per-
plexity to me, why at the seat of gov
eminent, where laws are made to regu-
late, foster and protect there should
exist such prejudice as does in Wash
ingtOn. In no southern city does there
exist greater prejudice than in Wash
ington, and this too in the face of the
fact that there are more alleged wise
acres among the Afro-Americans, who
pose as leaders, protectors and defend
ers, in Washington than in any other
one city. Usually where are congre-
gated a large force of generals, backed
by an immense rear guard, there yon
will find justice and plenty of it; but
not so in Washington. What a strange
anomaly.

THE NEGRO POPULATION.

Gen. Francis A. Walker has studied
the census figures regarding the Negro
population in this country and presents
his conclusions printed in an arti-
Gle in the July Forum. 1t is
an involuntary immigrant, and that
had it not been for the slave trade
he would probably never have reached
this country in large numbers; having
reached it, slavery has confined him to
limited section. The Negro popula-
ton of to-day is practically all descend
ed from 700, 900 women who were in this
country in 1910, when the slave trade
ceased; for out of the 700, 900. which is
Gen. Walkers estimate of our colored
! population, only a very small proper
ton are immigrants or descendants of
later importatiOns. Since 1910 the pro-
portionate of increase of colored people
with the rate of increase of the whites
has been constantly diminishing. In
1910 1t was per cent of the whole in
1910, Is. Sper cent, in 1860, Il per cent,
in 1880, 49, per cent, in 1890, 11.9 per
cent Up to 1850 the average rate of
increase for a decade had been 80 per
cent; from 1850 to 1860 it was 22O7 per
cent; from 1860 to 1870, 21.37 per cent:
from 1870 to 1880, % OF per cent, and
from 1880 to 1890, 1879 per cent-allow-
ance being made for the imperfections
Of the census of 1870 and the totals for
1870 being IN part estimates With this
decreasing rate of increase there is a
noticeable tendency of the race to con-
in hn fc%n
sections of other states, like Georgia,
South Carolina and Arkansas, so that
the likelihood is that these sections will
before many years contain practically
all our Negro population. From this |
summary of his data and conclusions il |
Is evident that Gen. Walker leans to |
the opinion that the proportion of the |
colored to the white population of this
country is to be constantly diminish
ing one. The problem is most inter
estlng one to the race and we shall |
havemore about it anon.
Because some of the colored citizens
OF Ancona, Tex, showed a sympathy for
the Negro slayer of DR.. j. 5. Love of
that place, the whites held a meeting
and warned all Negroes to leave the

leave before the expiration of the allot-

doubtless there are but few that are

thought occurred to mellow much
history that should be daily impressed

fact learned, was the first arguments
against African slavery on American
soil were contained in a little three
page tract, entitled THE Selling of
Joseph" printed in Boston in 100 by
Judge Samuel Sewen At that time a
few slaves were owned in New England
and Judge Sewen was writing of an
evil near at hand. Some of his SEN
fences were precursors of the ringing
words of the later and more successful
abolitionists-

seduced and ruined for life by some
white man, but retrobutive justice that
is so quick and sure when a colored
man is the guilty one and white wom-
an or girl the innocent victim, is never
visited upon the head of the Caucasian.
Occasionally we read in the dailies
where some Negro brute" has been
hanged for ravishing some white wom-
an or girl, but how many countless
numbers of colored girls have been
robbed of their pearl, their virtue by
some sensuous white brute and it is
passed by without comment and as .
natural sequent No white man was
ever hanged or shot Tor despoiling a
colored woman's virtue. The annals
of history records not a single instance.
We believe the time is ripe for Negro
editors to lay aside their political dis
cussions for spell and turn their at
tention to sustaining, maintaining and
even to the extreme, the
virtue of the women of their race
