Negro Exodus.

The problem of how we are
going to retain the negro instead
of how to get rid of him is at
tracing good deal of attention.
In view of the recent lynchings
in Lawrence county there is a
regular exodus of Ethiopians from
those parts. Down in the Delta
also the problem grows complics-
ted, One of the chief objections
to the proposed leyee law requir-
ing each man to work six days on
the levee-so representative
from Delta county stated to
your correspondence that it is
feared it may cause the negroes
to become dissatisfied and leave.
The necessity of the negro IN that
portion of the country is plain.
Verify the stock of our colored
brother shows a decided bullish
movement. Commercial Appeal.
The Greenville times. [volume] (Greenville, Miss.) 1868-1917, 1898-01-15
Not in the Delta.

The Governors recommendation
that men convicted of wife beat
ing be disfranchised strikes us as
being altogether unnecessary. In
this section of the State white men
are not guilty of this offense. We
presume the same condition pre-
walls in other parts of the COM
monwealth. The constitution of
1890 has already provided such
safeguards as to disfranchise a
large portion of the negro popula-
ton. -Bolivor County Democrat.

IN writing Of the monstroa.
wrong of investing two million
Ignorant slaves With political su.
premacy, and tho necessity fol-
adopting protective measures in
Louisiana, the Picayune repro
duces the following remarkable
statement made in the Globe
Quarterly Review by its editor:
This unparalleled and unutter-
able outrage upon civilization has
recoiled upon the people who per-
petrated it, and those of them
who recognize the wrong they
committed, and the blow they
struck at the political, moral and
social welfare of their country, do
not hesitate to acknowledge the
fact. A very striking expression
of this effect is made in the Globe
Quarterly Review for December,
1897, by its editor, VIM. II.
1horne, in an article entitled,
Must the Negro Coz" argues
that the negroes are demoraliz-
ing and degrading incubus and
curse upon the white people of
the American republic, and declare
that it is the concurrent opinion of
prominent white and negro philan-
thropists that the negroes must 90,
either out of the country or into a
virtual state of bondage, lest worse
befall,
Mr.. Thorne, who was an origi- |
nal abolitionist aud negrophilist,
writes thus on the subject to which
attention has been directed.

1895, and after more than thirty |
years of SINCERE and old fashioned |

THE "JOURNAL" EXCURSION

Monday morning. February IA, the
Minneapolis Journal excursion will ar
rive in this city, to remain in Los An
geles and vicinity until Thursday. The
event will be of considerable Importance
and interest.
The Minneapolis Journal is the leading
newspaper OF the Twin Cities in point of
circulation and influence, having very
large clientage in Minnesota the two
Dakotas. Northern Iowa and Western
Wisconsin,. A few weeks ago the paper
conceived the idea of getting up an eX
cursion that should take its envied par
ticipants away from the blizzardy,
snowbound north to more favored climes.
and to which its readers and friends
should be especially invited The idea
grew, and the more it grew the better
it looked.
The result was the Minneapolis Jour
nal excursion" which started from that
city Saturday, January %. 1t is now in
Mexico, and in few days it will be
headed toward the sunny southland of
California The fact that four days will
he spent in Los Angeles and the sur
rounding cities. even unto San Diego, is
4 compliment to Southern California
that will doubtless be appreciated by
its people.
Due recognition will be given the
Journal eXcursionists during their stay
in this city A reception will be ten
dered them at the chamber of commerce,
and doubtless other attentions will be
paid them. Angelenos will find their
Minneapolis guests a very nice class of
people to meet, because the Journal
does not take any other kind under its
wing, especially when it goes abroad.

OUR COMING GUEST

the commonwealth, and on Saturday
next will be welcomed to Los Angeles.
speaking at Hazards pavilion in the
evening, under the joint auspices of the
Silver Republicans, Silver Democrats
and Populists.
1t was the purpose of Mr.. Towne to
accompany Mr.. Bryan here last year
but he found it impossible to comply with
the universally expressed wishes of his
admirers at the time. He, however, in
timated that a t later period he would
avail himself of the privilege of address
ing our people upon the money question,
now overshadowing all other issues.
His coming will be an important event
in the political history of the city. His
welcome will be- to a great extent, nom
partisan. There is scarcely another ad-
vocate Of Independent bimetallism in
this country who has won such distinc-
ton, in congress and out. He has dis
played eloquence and skill and forceful-
ness in combating the aggressiveness OF
the money power on the rostrum, and
ability in organizing the large and in
Huential, though scattered elements oi

base surrender at ST. Louis, were ripe

Mr.. Towne became the natural and log
ical head of the National Silver Republi

ity are fresh in the recollection of al
who participated in that memorable
campaign. He is a man of culture anc
refinement, endowed with rare intel
lectual gifts, and since his brilliant de
bates in congress upon the question o
the repeal of the silver purchasing
clause of the Sherman act, he has ranked
as one of the clearest most logical ant

STONE FOLK LORE

An interesting and instructive paper
is published in the Journal of the Trans

Among the most interesting of these
