the inter-mArriages OF the race ts an
ordinary thing.
s'True men and true women Of sense
under proper conditions find each
others real worth in the affections,
the heart, the soul, and not In the color
of the skin.
And this is the barnecide feast to
which southern whites are invited.
and for which Dancy, Hood and the
other agents and advocates Of practical
miscegination are striving. They have
set their hearts on receiving some
beautiful Desdemonas for their share.
But they forgot that Desdemona, pure
as an icicle and chaste al an immacu-
late virgin, lost her life by marrying
| the black. who murdered her in her
| bed. This is fine work these salaeious
| conspirators and enemies of the Anglo
| Saxon race and civilization are striv-
ing for-seeking to degrade the great
est race Of the world to meet the con-
Stunning lusts Of black beasts.
II the north is seeking or desiring
social equality and is ready to inter-
marry p~romiscuously, it is not what
we have understood as true. Race an
tipathy an antagonism are as defiant
and strong in the north as in the
south. Only two years ago a leading
negro was shut out from a hotel in
New Haven right where Yale Univer-
sity is situated. Only the other day
there was a fierce race war raging
away up in Illinois or some other wes-
tern state.
But If negro equality and negro su-
premacy and negro amalgamation with
the whites are not the fixed and final
output in North Carolina it will not be
the fault of the white fellows who are
running with the niggers in Whining,
ton and are in control by open, defiant
usurpation of the city government. We
have lost completely in Wilmington

The last of the Dancy-Hood schem
