No ''Blood and Thunder" Speeches.

Pa, June 6, 1900, Bishop Derrick in
his opening address referred 10 the
race question urging bis people to re-
frain from making blood and thunder
speeches, which tend to create race
feeling and hatred. He said it should
be the aim OF the Negro to make friends
with the whites and not enemies. He
told the Negro that it was his duty to
act as any other man, not think that
he should carry himself in a special
manner, or act differently from any 9th
