All FIELDS OBSERVATIONS.
The MInstreIs Comments on Matters
and Things Southern.


Al G. Field of minstrel fame, is an OBJ
server Of matters and things outside Of
stage life as well as in it, In letter to
the Columbus, o., Dispatch he reviews his
recent trip South, commenting on the con-
dition Of the country, as he found it,
In writing of the prosperity Of the South
he says: "All parts Of the country are in
better condition than they were last year
In all the principal states of the sixteen
we visited the past four months, there
was a noticeable Improvement in all lines
of trade. Merchants, railroad men ana
those thermometers of the pulse of trade,
the commercial travellers, unite in saying
that business has vastly improved
Mr. Field tells come good yellow fever
stories, and winds up with his political
observations. mo Republican has inter-
ested the South so much he says, AS
President Mckinley has He then touches
| the subject OF race politics. Race preJu-
dice" he says, lis still so strong, and 1t
! is not confined 10 any party, but predomi-
mates in both-that no negro can MI an
important office without opposition from
| 80 per cent of the white people of the
community. That the negro as a voter
is entitled to a share of the offices none
VIII deny, but race prejudice is stlll so
| strong that we doubt if the people will
| ever outgroW it, There are many pros
porous and intelligent negroes through
out the South. They are recognized
and treated well in a business way. Many
of these negroes depore the fact that
| the administration has revived race
prejudice by making these appoint
ments A negro who is in business
in Savannah and has made
fortune of over $4,000, used these words:
! No negro who respects himself and his
party would accept an office in the South
knowing that nearly all the white people
are prejudiced against his holding it,
| "A leading Republican who managed the
! campaign in Texas last year. and had
| prospects of carrying that state for Nc
| Kinley, said to me that no party that APP
! points negroes to Office in the South can
| keep within its lines the representative
| and intelligent people. The sentiment that
| prompts this policy may be right, but the
| practical workings will defeat its purpose.
No friend of the negro who understands
| the conditions as they exist will appoint
one of them to any Office south of Mason
! and Dixon's line"
