Does Not Hate The Negro.

lido not hate the colored man." These
words express the latest attitude of Sena-
tor Benjamin R. Tillman on the race prob
lem. They form the text of a letter re-
ceiyed from the South Carolina states
man in an answer to an invitation extend
ed to him by the Rev. R. G. Ransom and
the Forum Club at the Colored Social
Settlement to come to Chicago and ad-
dress it's colored citizens on the relations
of the races in the South. The invitation
to the Senator is the outcome OF discus
sion at the recent Douglass day banquet
between Mr.. Ransom and T. Thomas For
tune, the editor of the New York Age, in
the course of which Dr. Ransom declared
that he admired the courage of Senator
Tillman even though he was compelledto
depise his notions of the rights of men.
Acting upon the general discussion which
followed the banquet incident letter OF
invitation was sent to the Senator and
following is the reply:
"The Rev. r. G. Ransom-Dear Sir: l
have your letter of March /. l have no
time to 60 so far to make lecture and,
therefore, cannot accept your invitation.
Another thing, my views of the race prob
lem from Southern standpoint would be
altogether different from yours and any
audience that you could get together, 50
different that it woald give offence and
provoke very angry feelings. This would
be unpleasant and I would therefore be
unwilling to make all engagement.
II do not hate the negroes, South or
North, and would be glad to see them rise
in the scale of civilization, but there is an
irrepressible conflict between the races
in the South and the white is compelled
to be the dominant race or see his race
disappear or to be swallowed up by mon
grelization. Your sincerely,
3. R. Tillmal."
The letter was made the subject of an
animated discussion at the last meeting
of the Forum Club. Bishop Evans Tyree,
of the Mississippi aud Arkansas districts
of the African Methodist Church, said:
"Whatever else we may think about the
matter Senator Tillman is one of the po-
tent forces in the South. cannot agree
with his estimate of my race. And yet l
believe him to be sincere in his belief that
the conflict is an irrepressible one. l wish |
could brin ghim tobelieve, however, ,thatour
thought and love for this grand Republic
is as deep-rooted as his and that our faith
in God and His works abides in the fervor
of strong hearts. We have labored and
suffered too much in the building of this
great Western social structure to sacrifice
it on the altar of nationalism. The uni
versal brotherhood of men is what we
dream of. 1 am glad that the Senator
does not hate the colored man."-Chicago

Fortunately the small pox scare is over,
and very little excitement was caused by
it anyway But we think this good time
to say few words on the subject, and to
impress upon our people the necessity of
vaccination and re-yaccination. In con-
tending with disease of this character
we cannot be too careful, for the results
of carelessness on the part of one citizen
may bring about dreadful results. The
work of vaccination should be done
thoroughly until every inhabitant of the
town has been successfully inoculated.
Especially should this be done in the
schools, and no pupil should be allowed
to attend any school of the town until it
has been successfully vaccinated. This
s.rufe is enforced in many towns in the
State, anealf it is not enforced;a 5amberg,
it should be. Let US look we'll to these
things, for San ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure"

La Grippe Quickly Cured.

"In the winter of 1893 and 1899 I was
taken down with severe attack of what
is called la grippe says F. l.. Hewett, a
a prominent druggist of Winfield, III.
"The only medicine used was two bottles
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. 1t broke
up the cold and stopped the coughing
like magic, and have never since been
troubled with grippe" Chamberlain's
Cough remedy can always be depended
upon to break up severe cold and ward
off any threatened attack of pneumonia.

the most desirable and one of the most
popular preparations in use for these all
