One would suppose that the
white people of the Country would
hoc,me tired of he ring the
word ".Negro." Prior to ana
spbseouent to his emancipation ne
was upon the hips of the white man,
Once upon the lips as a slave and
subsequently an alleged citizen and
freeman. Is the Negro free IN
sense? No. Every State where the
D .mocratic party con.rolls, Efforts
oramade TO disfrapchise the color
al man. The Democratic party ls
rebelism in disguise and the prl"-
cipIes for which it fought and lost,
are being developed IN another
shane. The North had better be
on the outlook. Before the war
the South tried to hold ITS
mower and .legislate by treas
enable methods. 1t rebeIlod and
endeayored to destroy the Union.
It failed, but now through chican-
erv and demagogury the South has
taken possession of the legislatures
and by subterfugss and uuconstl-
tutional enactments. The Negro
is being disfranchised and is sub
jeoted to political slavery. When
will this end? The advice Of Ne
gro leaders to their brethern IN
the South and elsewhere to use the
shotgun, would only be suicidal
to the poor black man South. The
time is not far Of before the black
man will be recognized as citizen
and brother. The white man Is
all powerful. He rules the world by
superior intellect and not by III
heritsnce. The black man is here
by sufferanse, by virtue of the
white mans superiority in intel
lect. Had the red man not been
tricked and fooled the white man
would be living in this Country by
sufferance instead of the Negro.
The RED man was killed out, the
Negro was brought and enslaVed.
Give the Negro equal chances and
he would net remain enslaved thir-
ty hours. The White man is a
coward. He knows the weakness
of the Negro. The Negro is not
mean neither does he endeayor to
take the advantage of the white
man. He is loyal and patriotic. He
loves his Country and is willing
aud ready to honor the white man.
He is becoming tired now, the
time IS coming when he will be
comDel to hit back, but it will be
suicidal to him if he does it. He
cannot longer stand this oppression.
His last appeal will be to the con-
science of the American people.

will you ask more of the Negro?

STEAMSHIP COM
W. PANY and the Board of Health

w ELDERS STEAMSHIP COM
W. PANY and the Board of Health
are again at loggerheads. Let
ters were read turing yesterdays ses-
sion of the Board of Health by Execu-
tive officer Pratt which revived the old
controversy as to freight charges, and
the landing of cattle and food products
One of the letters from the steamship
company raised the point that all con-
sigaments of paa4 should be PAID for by
the Board above the regular weekly
Il eightase charges now in the cont. act,
as 1t was heing shipped by contractors
for the Board.
charges nIaue ny Superintendent Key
nolds that, on recent trip, The Wider
company lost five head of cattle out of
a total of forty-n ne in landing them, to-
gether with sundry parcels of food
FIRE ght Executive Officer Pratt. had in
structed the secretary of the Board to
make a claim against the steamship
company for the five head of cattle. The
company replied that five bags of rice
and one of flour had been delivered on
subsequent TRIP. Mr.. Reynolds stated to
the Board yesterday that he had no
knowledge of their being delivered, as he
had just left the Settlement. In regard
the company stated the cattle were TAX
en- at the risk of the shipper. Executive
officer Pratt said that the contract read
that the company IS to take all reason
able care of the cattle in landing them.
The contention, as made by Superintend-
ent Reynolds, is that the company did
not exercise reasonable care in the in
stance discussed. Superintendent Rey-
holds said
''The landing of the forty-nine head
was made in a perfect calm. / don't see
any reason why the cattle should have
been lost. One Of the ships officers told
me this. They rush a boat in with a
number t ed on either side, and when
near the shore they let them go, and II
one or two go out to sea they don't
look after them at ALL but go back for
another load, and after they are through
they pick up the stragglers, which are
possibly exhausted and worn out and
drowned before they can get them to
shore. The mate of the steamer said it
was due to carelessness. Another
steamer which came recently, landed it's
entire cargo in an angry sea without los
ing one"
Mr.. Winston thought the matter was
a very important one and should be re-
ferred to committee for thorough
investigation. President Raymond said
the Board had had q great deal OF cor
respondence with the company on these
matters. and while the Board did not de-
sire to engage in a controversy, yet he
was DESTROYS of seeing the service car
ried on as 1t should be. He wanted the
freight carried properly and delivered ac-
cording to agreement. and he wanted to
find out to Just what extent the compa-
ny had been negligent. He was of the
OPP Mon that there must be some way of
reconciling the differences between the
company and the Board and a remedy
proposed or the service improved by the
company. Upon motion the matter was
referred to a committee consisting Of
Messrs Winston, Lowrey and Pratt

~ HE House Committee on Public
Health will make a thorough in
vestigation of the lack of taro and

Board OF Health yesterday the matter
was brought up by Executive Onicer

Committee, wnlcn was present. the a1f-
ncultleS iately Encountered by the
Board OF Health agents IN procuring
healthy taro. DR.. tratt said he had
made an arrangement in Honolulu for
taro to be Shipped TO the Leycr oelIle-
ment but 1t had turned out badly, and
old not agree with the samples first
submitted to him. The first lot Ship
ped from Honolulu in January, was l66
bags, and superintendent Reynolds had
at once requested him not to make any
further shipments of the same kind of
taro, as ii was mostly diseased, and
unfit to be made into poi.
A second Shipment haa been forward
ed, consisting OF 200 bags, and upon
investigation of these at their destina-
ton, ia bags We're found In condi-
ton which made il impossible for the
contents to be eaten. A committee OF
three persons chosen, from among the
ieperS, who We're supposed to be the
ones TO partake of the taro had in
spected 1t and pronounced it bad. The
CAeSuliee OiIlCeT haQ tnereupOn in
structed Mr.. Reynolds to condemn the
stuff and destroy it.
Dr. cooper then moved that the mat
ter be referred to the Attorney General
iJr an opinion as to the boards IiabIi-
- in the matter of the payment for
=. taro. Mr.. Lowrey moved that the
I'D decline to zap for what was
CO. !emned. President Raymond said
the contractors had put UP d bond OF
$f,ct9. and the question arose as 10
whether the board should compel the
oondsmen to make good the loss In
freights and general expenses con-
nected with the shipments. Mr.. Dole
gave ii as his opinion that the board
had the right to refuse payment. Only
actual damages could be recovered by
suit. Upon motion of Mr.. Lowrey the
board took the stand that IL would not
pay for the condemned taro.
For the information of the visiting
