INCENDIARY ADVICE TO NEGRO

The Washington Bee (Afro-Ameri-
CAM fears that when the negroes OF
North Carolina go to the polls TO vote
upon the proposed amendment. the
whites will combine, and by force
of arms and their bloody and bastard
" methods prevent negroes from vot-
ing" and it gives the North Carolina
negroes the following counsel:
sForce is to be detested when eXer-
cised in a contest where conscience,
patriotism. and eloquence should be
the controlling forces. Yet the sense
of manly independence and self-pres-
ervation dictates that brute force be
met by like force when other forces
become useless. God forbid that the
tragic scenes about Wilmington be
re-enacted this year. but should such
be attempted, manliness, justice, and
self-respect demand that the negroes
shall defend their helpless sisters.
wives. and daughters against unholy
slaughter by gangs of bloodthIrsty
and heartless brutes.
..We trust that the thinking class
of whites in North Carolina will not
be led into schemes of gross injus-
tice and crime by unprincipled and
designing demagogs and grasping
politicians.
..Above all it is the duty of all in
telligent and manly colored people to
watch and be prepared for the worst
and not fall with their backs toward
the enemy
From such advice as this grows
riot and blood-shed. Men who give
such advice are the negroes worst
enemy.
Compare it with the following ex-
tracts from recent address to a class
of colored graduates. by President
Meserve. of Shaw University, this
city:
avenues leading to office-holding
cannot be travelled by you and little
has been gained in this direction in
the past by any race. The shore OF
the white political sea is lined with
wrecks, and they are far greater in
number than the ships that have
made port in safety. There is little
in office-holding for white people;
nothing for you; but in educated col
ored citizenship there is and always
will be the power of the ballot"
Devote yourselves TO the public
schools next to the church of God.
There is in them a potency for the
advancement of the race that can be
found nowhere else. Let your ener-
gies be expended upon them rather
than in building up church, associa-
tons or other private schools. The
bulk of the race must receive its edu-
cation in the public schools. and these
schools should be made as good as
possible"
~ more kindly feeling on your
part toward the best and most in
Nuential white men and women here
in the South and a deeper and more
general personal interest on their
part in your spiritual. moral and
educational welfare will bring untold
blessings to both races"
This advice is from teacher of, and
true friend to. the negro. His words
are words of wisdom. Had they but
been followed in years gone by, things

One thing is certain: This state
