For the past several weeks tho people

from the Daily Recorder, the organ OF the
negroes Of the city OF Norfolk.
Colonel r. G. Marshall Of Portsmouth,
has undertaken TO raise regiment OF
negro soldiers. and the Recorder IS NOT
at all pleased with the idea. It declares
that III 1t is the intention Of the state
and Federal authorities TO organize the
negroes separately. then It Is the au'y
Of the negro soldiers to choose to hsht
under none other than negro officers from

nize the fact" continues our coiored con-

And so il will he seen that while there
are no sectional issues. the race question
is ever present.
There is this fact too which Is con-
staatlv forcing itself upon us. I'm 1861 when
the white men of the South went to war
although the negro had reason to be-
lieve that he was vitality interested i'm
the issue. the women and children were

But would the white men OF The South

The Norfolk newspaper is showing an
ugly spirit and is doing the negro race
no good by such talk as this. The color

man must decide for himself. but here
are two suggestions which we think II Is
safe 10 tie 10.
The farmer will make no mistake II he
shall turn his special attention 10 rails
ing as Ear as possible all his supplies
AT home. Raise plenty OF wheat and corn
and hogs and sheep. and all things, as
far as possible. needful to the support
Of the family. The farmer who will 40
this will be iudep ,ndent. and the war
won't touch him.
In tho next place one OF the safest and
hest investments in war times is d.
sirable real estate. That Is something
which those who passed through the late
war do not need TO be told. There IS no
telling what Is 90 become OF the various
enterprises and industries OF the coun-
try. although on that score there Is no
present cause for alarm We do not
believe that these are going TO be serious
~ cripplcd. Yet when a man has n good
bit OF real estate h has something that
is abiding. Those who invest now IN
good virginia farming lands or I'm de-
srable property IN the city Of Richmond
may feel sure that their investments are
safe. The land cannot get away from
them. war or no war, and after the
war is over the probability is That there
will be something Of a real estate boom.
So that we say TO the farmer be sure
that YOU make your supplies at home
this year: and we say TO all VINO are
timid about their investments that there
IS no danger I'm putting their money into
Richmond real estate.
