INTERESTING TO NEGROES.
bishop Turner Wants His Race to Emil
CRATE to Liberia.

bishop Turner Wants His Race to Emil
CRATE to Liberia.
In a recent article in the Philadel-
phia Press, Bishop Turner takes strong
ground in favor of negro emigration to
Liberia. Briefly, he states his position
as follows:
The Anglo Saxon race that controls
this country is peculiar one. 1t is a
masterful and dominating race.
Wherever it has settled among other
races by colonization it has always
subjugated the native races or extermi-
mated them. 1t has subiugated the ma
tive races in India, and at the Cape of
Good Hope In Africa. 1t has practic-
ally exterminated the Indians In the
United States. and it has, to all intent"
and purposes, wiped out the natives i'll
Australia and New Zealand | admit
the advancement made by many ne
groes during the last thirty years,
handicapped as they were in intelli-
gence and wealth, in the cities espec-
tally, has been highly creditable, and
argues most hopefully for the future
and for the natural energy of the ne
gro. But, notwithstanding all this,
the vast bulk of the 100000 have not
risen in material condition above what
they were as slaves. We do
not believe that the Caucasian will &C
cept the African as an equal In every
respect. We are in favor of judi
cious emigration to Liberia. We
should like to see large number of
young men with am bltion and energy,
of middle aged or old men with expe-
rience and capital, of old and young
men and women with education and
culture to train the young, of mechan-
les and agrioultupists. go there to
settle that country, the only one in ad
dition to Hayti where the problem of
the negro government is being solved.
We have visited Africa more than
once, and have inspected the terrific
rial domain of the Liberian republic,
modelled after the United States in its
Legislative, executive and judicial de-
partments, and we speak of what we
know and have seen. My only fear is
that if they do not avail themselves of
those possibilities soon, England
through her colony of Sierra Leone on
the north, and France from the South,
will absorb the republic of Liberia, I'M
less protected by the United States,
and this splendid, if not only opportu-
nifty will pass away from the negro for
ever.
