No, fellow citizons, let tho South
have her representation, although tho
right is locked up in the tomplo of
blind prejudice; but if tho right ro-
mains the timo will come, and come
it must, when tho white mon OF tho
South will invite us to enjoy it with
them.
LET US PRErABE OURSELVES
for it's enjoyment, for it will como
back to us in its fulncss aud in it's
might. Let us resolve to uso it with
our white ncighbora for tho benefit
of ourselves and our white noighbors;
let us resolve to fit ourselves educa.
tionally, spiritually aud materially
for its nso and enjoyment.
In short, let us look to tho South,
absolutely to the South, and ask the
white men Of tho South to assist us
IN the enjoyment of every right that
he'ongs to free citizenship. If thoy
do not give it to III tho North will
never interfere or assist us to get it.

long. 1t is time for us to educate
ourselves that wo may 500 tho true

PUT MONEY IN THY PURSE.
Get money, but get it honestly.
Keep money, but do not hoard it.
Keep it to assist you in developing
the Southland. Keep money to as
sist you in bettoring your condition
and securing homes. Keep money
for a rainy day. Keep up your
churches, support your schools, teach
your girls to work at homo and by SO
doing you will strongthon their
morality.
And let us not forget that we owe
q duty, first, to South Carolina; sec
ond, to tho nation; third, to our.
selves, and last, but not least, to
God.
From tho report Of Superintendent
McMahan we see that moro negroes
than whites attend tho public
schools.
1t is truo that wo get less than
ono.third OF the money appropriated
for the public schools of the State;
but, when we consider who the rnl-
ing classes are and are reminded of
tho political antagonism that has cx
isted between tho two races, | am
really surprised, edited and graft

are spending rs much as they do
spend on tho negro for tho purposes
Of &c lcation.
