SATURDAY., NOVEMBER, 80, 1901

The cry of, Negro domination, .
which has been raised so often in the
South, we used to think was merely a
subterfuge; and We used to contend
that the whites had no good. reason
for fear, but we are not so sure about
the matter now. We do not believe
there is any desire on the part of the
Afro-Americans to actually dominate,
but they have no objection to having
finger in the pie. And there seems
to be some danger that they will get
that finger in, and that is what is SO
alarming to the whites. Now, the
whites seem to be extremely selfish
and. while they unquestionably know,
a good thing when they see it, and at.
once proceed to appropriate as much
OF said good thing to theirSownsuse as
is possible, they seem to think it very
strange that anyone else can see and
desire and appreciate the same good
thing.
Whether one chooses to admit fact
or not does alter the fact, Or, deprive
it of existence, II is fact that theI
Afro American belongs to the human
species and therefore his desires, as
pirations. ambitions. morals, feelings,
passions, etc. etc, are Just like those
u other human beings. why should I

brother forever? Men would be an.
gels, angels would be Gods, . slss
There was time, and, not very
long ago, either, when a nice heWn-
log house, nicely chinked with chips
and coarse plaster, was thought by
some whites, a few of whom are alive
today, : to be good enough for them,
and, consequently, good enough for
anybody. They think very different
now, and cannot get their mansions
palatial enough to suit them, but they
think an Afro-American ought not to
have the same sort of desire. They
used to wear buckskin, home-spun or
any old thing they could get, but now
they can't get clothes good enough or
fine enough to suit them, but it brings
a smile Of derision to their lips to see
well-dressed Afro-American. They
used to have laws with serious penal
ties attached to prevent Afro-Ameri-
cans from being educated, or even edu-
eating themselves. They knew what
a good thing education was and want
ed to keep it all for themselves, now
they are patterning after the industrial
institution founded by Booker T.
Washington. They have found that
the Afro-American is susceptible to
the same Improvements as themselves,
and as he takes very readily to all such
things, they are afraid he will outstrip
them in the race, and, so, as they now
are a little ahead. they throw every
obstacle possible in the road of his
progress. They see yves risin'" and
they are scared almost to death.
But, bless their dear souls they need
not be scared, we don't want the whole
earth, we only want part of it. There
are 10,OOO,0OO of us and some of the
earth is necessary for us to liye,s on.
We have seen our white brothers en-
joying all the good things Of earth and
we banker after share of those same
good things. We don't want all, only
a; fair share. We are perfectly willing
for other folks to have what Justly be-
longs to them and we want what just
~ belongs to us-life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness as vouchsafed by
the Declaration of independence. We
were born here, this is our home, we
intend to stay here. We are willing
ITO get on tremendously, but our white
brothers are always kicking and stir
ring up bad feeling. They need not
be so much afraid Of U.S., we won't hurt
them; we are unselfish enough to give
them show for. their white alley
every time. Let them be as fair with
US and there will be no trouble.
