A CoLoRED GENERAL OF FAME

4 CoLoRED GENERAL or FAME
General Dodds. the French commander
in Dahomey, who has earned his rank
as general by his dashing exploits. is,
like Alexandra Dumas, what we would
call in the United States of America a
negro-that is, he is of mixed blood.
One account asserts that he is a quad
room. another that he is mulatto but
it is agreed that he is African on the
maternal side He is graduate OF
the great French military school OF st.
Cyr, and saw service in the Franco
Prussian war. His distinction and
promotion will not seem in any
way peculiar to French military men,
nor will they starte the French pubiic
opinion. The French do not under
stand the intensity of Anglo-S&Xon col
or prejudice. A man OF talent Is 10
Frenchncn Il man Of talent, never
mind what is The color of his skin. II
he can serve the State let him serve IL:
and reap the rewards of his service,
!, the French view. Frenchmen do not
mind in the least that the elder Dumas
was as much OF nero rs Frederick
Douglass. and that his father, who was
= distinguished officer, was more
African than European, being the son
of Frenchman and Il colored Wo-
man. The French are muchin advance
of Americans in their common sense
freedom from color prejudice, and we
shall not catch up with them until we
have colored colonels, or at least col
onels of African descent, in our regular
army, which time appears very far oil
in the future-BostoR transcript.

like we mean to ruin the cred it of
the State, and that our re.ehction
means destruction.
/ appeal to them to close their
eyes to all prejudice and to open
them to the truth in it's beauty and
strength. Partisan statements and
bitter denunciations are not what
you ought to engage in or want
to hear. Throw wide open the doors
to the records, and with impartial
minds investigate them, a ed when
you have found the truth, stand
by it.
i have not said Intentionally
one harsh word to-day. See if I
am as fairly treated by the other
side and by the press. Demand of
all that they meet argument and
facts with argument and facts, and
not with abuse and vilifcatian.
Roll up the curtain, turn on the
tight, and let us see if I have not,
in, measure, met the charges
against us.
Tn answer to a query, SLei pard
said that if in a constitutional
convention he would not favor
81 poll tax. In answer to direct
query, he replied that he was not
in favor of a 81 poll tax.
He cornered Sheppard neatly on
the bank cases. He asked Shep-
pard if he thought his banks
return of all it owned was proper.
Sheppard replied that it was. He
asked if the return of the Abebville
Bank of surplus, undivided profits
ond capital was right, and Shep-
pard replied it was. He then asked
ifthe returnof the Germania Bank
of 10000 capital for taxation was
right, when, in addition to that
capital, the bank had a surplus of
over 100000, Sheppard replied
that this was not right. "Then
why do you say it is wrong for us to
attempt to make the Marlboro and
Newberry and other banks pay
taxes on all of their property"

Now, my fellow citizens, this is
the way it stands. Yet you are
told thatwe are incompetent, e1-

I am tired, and I know you are

prepared to hear it. I would like
to have a voice with power and
eloquence that would send these

from the mountains to the sea. I
wish 1 could reach all the people
and show them the fallacy of the
policy and argument of the opposi-
tion. I have tried to make them
plain to you. If you accept them,
spread them as far as your infu-
ence and opportunities reach.
Excuse all for which 1 should
apologize, accept my thanks for
your kind and patient hearing; be
sure to enroll your names on the

mary, for unless you do, you can't

debtedneas of the State for all pur-
poses 6,770,223.81. When
we make - subtraction we have
q difference in ourfavor of74.547.-
81, howing that we have actually
reduced the Indebtedness of the
State to this amount in one year.
Yet you are told, Notwithstanding
the facttthat we have reduced the
indebtedness of the State "a, 4,547.31,
tnat we ought not be continued in
Office because of our incompetency
and extravaganza.
My fellow-citizens, are you
blind to the truth, or have your
eyes been already opened? Are
you to be led by prejudice con-
ceived in selfshness and egotism,
and born in malice and spite, to
diga-grave in which to attempt to
bury the TRUTH If you are, it has
been said and l may repeat it,
that "truth crushed to earth will
rise again"
But let us turn Another page
and see what is there to justify
the charge that we are incompetent
and extravagant. Here we find
that for the fiscal year ending 31st
October, 1890, the total receipts
for all purposes were 1,129,91s,7S,
and the total expenditures for the
same fssal year were 1,153,92o.34,
an expenditure of 24,0O1.71 over
receipts. Actually ran the State
government at a loss to the extent
of 24,OO1,71.
But how was it with us for the
last fiscal year? Our total
receipts were 1,O7S,752.9S, and our
expenditures 1,o59,923.59, az e1-
cess of receipts over disbursements
of 13,s29.39. We spent 13,S2s.ss
less than the amount we collected,
while our predecessors spent a.
OO1.71 more than the amount they
collected.
But it does not stop here. They
not only spent 24,001.71 more than
they collected, but they left note
of $4,000, with 500 interest on it,
to be paid in our fiscal year. This
debt of $4,000 was paid out of the
1,073,752.9S, the amount of the
