"PUDDEN HEADS"
rFrom the Indianapolis Freeman.l

Chase, of Washington, desires to
call the Indiana Negro "Pudden
Heads" Well, we will just watch the
progress of his stars.
Well, a State that claims to hold
the balance of power, SO far as the
negro vote is concerned, and the
editor of the Freeman thinks that
a copyist position in the recorders
Office will satisfy that vote, are not
only "pudden heads" but ''mush

THE AMERICAN NEGRO AND
HIS EMANCIPATION.
AT FREDERICK, Md, AUGUST 18TH.
THE OCCASION BEING THE 34TH
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION.
Mr.. Chase said

Mr.. ChaSe SAID:
NV Fellow Citizens | have been in
vited to address you, and propose to
give you some wholesome advice, and
suggest remedies whereby you may
improve your present condition.
have selected for my subject The
American Negro and his Emancipa
tion." When | say the American Ne
gro | mean those negroes who are en-
titled to American citizenship. You
have been emancipated from physical
slavery, but what has been accom-
plished since your emancipation in
comparison with what your more for
tunate white fellow citizens possess !?
Do not our celebrations appear ridicu-
lous to the eyes Of those in whose
hands the Republic is entrusted? The
white man tells you that he is going
to introduce something to the people
that will demonstrate his progress and
attest his civilization. He will petition
to the Congress of the United States
for an appropriation of several million
of dollars E; that he is going to give
worlds fair or state centennial by
which means he intends to show the
great inventions of his people. The
white man is genius on inventions.
The negro since his emancipation has
been doing little but organizing secret
societies to enable him to put on a
pretty red, white and blue uniform !;
elect himself president, secretary or
treasurer of that society. He appears
to be happier behind footing of horns
and the beating of drums than he is
in the school house, or at home teach
ing his sons to become citizens in the
broadest and most acceptable sense.
AS OTHERS SEE US.
five could only see ourselves as others
see us, perhaps we would cease the
parading of streets a little. The pic
ture present to you to-day of the ne
gro is one that the white man carries
| in his brain. That the negro has serv-
ed his country we'll in many instances
will not deny. But speak of the
negro of to-day. The negro of the old
school seemed to possess greater in
genuity than the negro Of to-day or the
new school. The picture | say the
white man carries in his mind Of the
negro is that of shifting, vascilating
character in the body polite. His dis
| inclination to unite and produce some
thing material for his own advance
ment and that of his fellow man; his
disposition to Uphold crime committed
by one of his own fellow citizens his
failure to invent something that will
aid the masses and not the few his
disinclination to take advantage Of
political revolutions, and his stupidity
in resenting political imposition by
those who have been place in power
by his vote. His cowardly leadership
has made him political slave, which
has intimidated those who have sent
him forward to defend their rights
against against the imposition of those
who hold the reins of government.
The negro is too easily satisfied with
promises and too cowardly to exercise
that power which God gives honest
man to use.
WHAT a SPECTACLE.

would do honor to the gods on their

Statesmen May Meet Today to Arrange a
Seal settlement.
WASHINGTON, Nov. l6.--The British,
Canadian and American delegates tc
the Bering sea meeting had confidently
expected to bring their labors to a close
ere this, but after two arduous sessions
the experts were not able to reconcile
all their differences. 1t is believed an
agreement will be reached today.
This will make available all the data
necessary for considering the vital dip.
lomatic question of stopping pelagiG
sealing. The intention is that General
Foster. Sir Wilfrid Laurier ana Sir
Louis Davies will meet this afternoon,
to go over the results reported by the
experts and, if possible, agree upon q
basis of settlement. The outcome OF
this Diplomatic meeting continues to be
much in doubt.
1t was intimated the Canadians might
make counter proposition, not going
as far as the American representatives
desire in the way of limiting pelagio
sealing, but yet Offering q possible
ground for amicable adjustment.
Equally reliable sources stated that il
the issue assumed the form of pelagic
sealing or no pelagic sealing as now
seemed likely, it would be extremely
difficult to reconcile the differences

WORKING ON MESSAGE.
The President Paying Little
Attention to Appointments.
PACIFIC ACTION AS TO CUBA.
Asking Opinious of Statesmen as to Pros
pective Currency Legisiation-No Ar
bitration Recommendation - Attitude
of Administration on Reciprocity.

WASHIN aToN, Nov. 49, Senator Fair.
banks of Indiana and Senator Elkins
of West Virginia have seen the presi.
dent upon matters pertaining to ap-
pointments in their states, but also dis
cussed with Mr.. Mckinley the probable
policy Of the coming session of con.
gress.
Both Senators Eliins and Fairbanks
agree with the president in the matter
of pacific measures regarding Cuba and
Spain.
President Mckinley is quite anxious
TO know what prospects there are for
currency legislation, and asks different
senators who call for their opinion.
While pressure is still being brought
to bear on the president for appoint.
ments he is giving little time to such
matters, and prefers to work on 3
message. Jt is proba le the president
will make no recommendation in his
message upon the subject of general
arbitration. The fact that he made his
views clear on that subject in hisina z.
ural address, aud that no arbitration
treaty will be pending when the annual
message Is sent in. makes it unneces-
sary to say anything further on the
matter at this time.
The attitude of the administration
toward the subject of reciprocity with
Canada is probably disclosed in state
ment of government official, in which
he says:
THE task of the government would
be made easier if the statesmen in con-
gress would be controlled by the inter.
ests of the country at large. Some of
them unfortunately contine their views
to a particular concession to be ob.
tanned from foreign country for O
local interest; and then desire ouI
compensatory concession to be made
not by their own, but by some Other
locality.
They make of reciprocity a series OF
| questions to be settled in the interest OF
| particular districts. We may be able tC
secure arrangements which will ado
millions to our national export trade
and yet it might be defeated by com
bination of a few minor local interests
not amounting to Il million. Yet reel
| procity means mutual concessions
without this nothing can be accom-
| plished. We must give a market il WE
