the old scheme for the return OF the negro
race to Africa. and is especially interest
ed In the work Of the international Mi
grafton Society. which Is organized upon
much the same line as the Colonization
Society Of a half q century ago. Bishop
Turner in the interest Of his race. has
visited Liberia several times. and while
he thinks ii no place for "shiftless, no.
account negroes" he says ii offers the
greatest asylum on earth 10 the self-re-
lisnt. Industrious black man" \ tremen-

Bishop Turner Is the color line" as now
