A SENSIBLE SPEECH.
Prominent Negro Addresses a
School in Dawson.

Words of truth and wisdom were
spoken by colored man to his race
in Dawson Friday night. Toe ma
ioritY of those who heard him were in
tent on having hilarious time. but
! the older and more sensible heads
among his audience appreciated the
truth of his remarks and fervently
cried "amen!" when the speaker con
cluded.
The occasion vas the closing ex.
ercises of the colored Free Will Bap-
! fist school, under the management of
w. B. Edmondson, and the speaker
was W. H. Styles of Liberty county,
one OF the most promi nent negroes in
Georgia and for several terms a mem
Der of the state legislature from his
county.
Styles is negro of intelligence and
sound common sense. and he attracted
attention from the noisy crowd present
the instant he assembled the platform.
He began his short speech by com
plimenting the pupils of the school for
the excellent manner in which they
had acquitted themselves, then turned
his attention to the audience. Ali
during the exercises Prof. Edmondson
had made frequent and futile attempts
TO preserve some semblance of order.
Not tenth of what was being said
could be heard five feet from the plat
form. 1t was to them that Styles pre-
sented piece of his mind in the fol-
lowing forcible manner.
"The majority of you who are here
tonight are promising candidates for
the peniten tiary and the changing,
and the sooner you get there the bet
ter it will be for everyone. You are a
disgrace to your race. The protests
of Prof. Edmondson did no good, but
when man with a badge on his breast
and a billy in his baud, whom we
sent for, entered the door you quoted
down in hurry. Shame, shame upon
you! 1t is time you were stopping this
foolishness and giving some thought
to your education. The white people
are tired of the thankless task of edu-
eating you. Nearly every time the
legislature meets some member in
PRODUCES a bill whose purpose is to
make you pay for your own education.
and sooner or later you will have this
to do. You had better prepare for 1t
while there is time"

PARROT PARAGRAPHS.
Items About People and Things
in That Community.

The PARROT school closed with some
nice exercises which did credit both
to teachers and pupils The address
delivered by Professor Marcus Bold
ing of .Cuthbert was a masterpiece.
His subject was Southern History, :"
and he developed some phases of our
history which are not generally known
or appreciated by the general readers
of history. but which it is important
that our southern youth should clearly
understand. Miss Mamie Merrill,
who so successfully taught music
here, left last week. We all regretted
to see her go, as she is charming
young lady.
Old Aunt Lucy Harris, colored, died
suddenly at Mr.. W. L. Clements, last
Sunday. She was an ante bellum
negress and raised by Grand Ma Har-
ris of Marion county, and nursed her
in her old age and feebleness. At the
death of Mrs. Harris she went to live
with her daughter. Mrs. W. l.. Glenn
ents, and faithfully served her until
death. She had never lived away
from the family that raised her. She
was negro who commanded the re-
spect of all who knew her. She never
associated with her own color, but was
wonderful in her devotion To "her own
white folks" Such negroes in these
times deserve a tribute OF respect.
We regret to know that DR.. w. A.
Tilley is quite sick, but hope he will
