The Facts Are History.
{ Biblical Recorder.)

Now we are prepaid to consider
the question of facts: Is there a
negro on the Board Of Directors of
these (white and colored blind)
institutions? James II. Young, negro,
was a member of the Board until this
summer, when he resigned to take a
place in the volunteer army. Second:
Did the negro inspect the institution
for the white children? He did;
there is certificate signed by him
certifying that he did.
We are glad that these facts are
past history; glad that no negro is
now on the Board. 1t would not be
abhOrrent to have one or more ne
groes, intelligent and of good
character, on a board governing an
institution for negro children; and it
may be said that Young was made 9
member of the Board in question in
order to look after the institution for
negro children. But the fact stands
bald that he had equal powers with
the white members of the Board in
the conduct of the institution foI
white children; and those who know
him know that he is not slow to try
to assert such power. II there must
be negro to look after the insti
tuition for negroes, let there be two
boards. But there exists no neces
sity.
And, in passing, the same dec
laration applies with equal force te
4 I,, So, Of
If there must be a negro to look after
the free schools for negroes in {
township, let there be two com
mittees. But there exists no neces
sity.

TO AMERICANIZE CUBA.
The Opportunity Of the Southern
Railway and How it Will be I'M
proved.

Referring to the opportunity of the
Southern Railway as factor in the
new development and Americaniza-
ton of the West Indies, the Charlotte
Observer says:
~Railroads are public benefactors,
not in any philanthropical sense, be-
cause their owners, like the rest of
mandkind, are actuated largely by
self-interest. But there is no agency
that equals them for the develop
ment of country. Even at this
very moment Great Britain and Rus
STA are on the verge of war, the casus
belli being a railroad concession in
China, both countries striving for
the control Of the road. The policy
of regarding railroads as public enc
mics is the policy of killing the goose
that lays the golden egg. There is
undoubtedly great opportunity be-
fore the Southern Railway in the
development and Americanizing OF
the West Indies, the islands of the
sea that have just fallen under the
protection of the United States.

new commerce will spring up be-
tween the United States and Cuba
and Porto Rico, and the great
Southern Railway, reaching a long
arm down into Florida, our nearest
point of access to the Antilles, will
share richly in this new trade. And
the Observer is glad of it, for the
Southern has been a good friend tc

And Behold a Negro Office Holder
Comes Forth.
New Bernie journal. }

New Berne Journal
At the Craven county Republican
convention, held in this city few
weeks ago for the purpose of nomi-
mating a county ticket, there was
everywhere, in all the different stages
| Of the proceedings noticeable
sense Of triumph among the negro
delegates, who greatly outnumbered
| the whites.
The negro felt his superiority in
numbers, and in numbers he recog-
nized the fact of power to dictate to
his white Republican brother.
This sense Of superiority was we'll
shown and expressed in the really
notable speech of the convention,
made by the assistant in the register
OF deeds office, a colored man by the
name of Wetherington.
This Office holder showed persist
ence in advocating the negro for
every office that was worthy Of his
race, and his every speech, and they
were numerous, was hot enough for
the most pronounced negro in the
convention, who was seeking an
| office
| In his speech Wetherington rising
to the time and occasion, was elo-
| quent in depicting the progress of
the negro in getting Office, and fin
| ally in a burst of triumph he ex-
| claimed, with dramatic action suited
to express each sentence, "in 1896,
we pressed the button and behold
John b. Willis, Register Of Deeds
came forth. Again we pressed the
button, and Robert Moseley, county
commissioner, came forth! We press
ed the button, and deputy sheritfs
came forth! We pressed the button
and magistrates came forth.
land now in this convention we
have again pressed the button, and
behold G. &. Roach, for county treas
urer is before you, and with the past
and present before us, what shall the
future give to us?''
| Truly this picture painting of the
negros possibilities, as an office
holder, must have been pleasing tC
white Republicans of Craven county,
who were limited to two nomina-
tons, the sheriff's and clerk of the
courts, and these were only given by
the candidates pledging to fill every
position in their offices, with negroes
1t is no surprise that white Repub-
licans are alarmed over their posi-
ton, which to-day is untenable SC
far as office getting goes, for the
negro is a persevering ''button
pusher,n and the white office seeker
in the Republican party, while to-day
he may be granted a few favors, il
way of office, by his friend, thu
negro, yet the ''buttom pushing
clearly indicates that he cannot much
longer expect to be granted any
favOrs.
1--WE press the button and behold
how long must this be endured
Can even Republicans, white Re
publicans, continue to place them
selves under the political domination
of the negro?

THESE THINGS WILL BE CHANGED.
But the Waiting and InsoIence of Ne
grOeS is Hard to Bear.
New Bern ,JOurnal)

Travelling on the A. Il y. c. road
these days is described as very dis
agreeable. Yesterday an extra car
was put on for the accommodation of
the colored people who have been at
the Colored Fair, on the trains going
up and down the road.
The usual day coach was occupied
mainly by white people, ladies and
children. This was seen apparently
by the crowd of colored people on
the platform and not one of them
wonld go into the extra car put on
for them but crowded into the car
already partly occupied.
The white people thercupon were
compelled to vacate their seats and
go into the other car. The extra car
was not quite as fine as the usual
day coach but the white people found
it plenty good enough for them.
Even Republican black orator would
perhaps admit that white people
have right to sit by themselves
when they desire. This crowding of
the negroes is merely an instance of
the peculiar assertive qualities being
developed in the negro race.
The railroad management should
see that colored people, or white
either. not going on the train as
passengers. should not be allowed to
block the aisleS of the car at the
depot.
All these things will be changed
but the waiting is hard to bear.
