Monkey ..rIsInn In the South.

Heathswlle, Va, ~, 1892
Editor of the Dispatch:
In u recent issue of the Dispatch
| saw an account of the movement
that is now on foot to buy and
train monkeys for the purpose of
picking cotton on southern farms.
This information, though relating
to Mississippi plantation, was |
believe, conveyed to you nam
ly through the New York
Press. This last fact is so signif-
cant that !, as an humble citizen
of the South, appeal to you to do
oil within your power to stop this
buying and training of monkeys,
in the name of peace and unity,
stop it. ! am not Washington,
but looking back upon the past
history Of our country, how can
we fail to see the inevitable result
of this movement Why, sir,
the New York Press has already
begun the tragedy. See how 1t
has already commenced to human
ize these monkeys by presenting
to the public pictures of the crea-
lures dressed in bonnets, and how
it goes on and extols them in en-
thusiastic terms, calling them
orr new ''help." What does all
this mean Does it not mean
that these animals are capable of
being educated and trained to
work Does It not mean that al
ready the New York Press is in
love Will them Does it not
mean that they are sure to be a
source of cheap labor to the plant
er, and does not the fact appear
that they are being bought Now
what will be the next thing ! Why,
some hot headed son of the South
will one day cruelty chastise one
of these monkeys, tGeen somebody's
monkey will get tired of picking
cotton and will take up, perhaps,
with some organ-grinder and flee
into Massachusetts,. Then extra
dition will be resorted to and re-
fused by the State; then the Fed
oral authorities will interfere in
favor of the owner; then public
opinion will be aroused, societies
will be organized, preachers will
preach against it, and books will
70 written. Not "Uncle Toms
cabin" this time, but some pathe-
ic story of broken-hearted and
monkeys being
ruelly tortured by their owners.
Who knows bat that the missing
ink will be found Then war,
nth all its horrors, will be visited
pom the country, followed by
he emancipation of the monkeys,
ne right of suffrage to the mon =
eys, free schools for the monkeys.
-ye! then, even laws by some of
lie States permitting us to marry }
lonkeys and fools among us to
ommit the act. =
Mr.. Editor, for the loye of our !
ear country, for the love of pos
'rity, stop Q, stop this monkey
nsiness." have never had Y
nance to serve my country before !
I'd may never again, but should |
. the humble instrument of help
g 10 ayert this disaster | want all
lie honor due me, Pr therefore, | 6 6
