A NEGRO ON THE NEGRO.
Some of the Pointed Things He Says
TO His Race,

w. w. Lucus, d negro preacher who
is field agent of the Negro Young PEG
ple's Christian Educational Congress
has been preaching to large congrega'
tions of his race down in Mobile.
Here are some things he said to the
colOred brethren:
81 have decided that the only way
to get rid of the Jim Crow" car Is
i to get rid of the slim CrO@" negro.
eff could use 100000 bars of soap
on the unwashed negroes that travel
on trains and hang around depots
would solve the negro problem about
20 per cent.
'Lazy, ragged, barefoOted fellows
longing for silver slippers and long
white robes and counting themselves
worthy; neglecting to provide home
for their families on earth and yet
claiming a home not made with their
hands in Gods heaven!
"The white man is crying to make
this earth blossom as rose, and the
negro is getting ready to die!
"The white man is organizing busl-
ness enterprises and the negro organ
izing societies to turn out at their tun-
erals. Row, | object to hundred dol
lar funeral for fifty cent negro.
"The negro eats up and dresses
away all he makes. One square meal
on Sunday sweeps away all the wages
of the week. He reminds me of the
mule who ate the shipping tag from
his leg. An cd negro exclaimed:
Gee. dat mule done ct up his whar-
he's gwine' That's the way the me-
gro does. He eats up his living"
This sort of talk may not make the
Reverend Lucas especially popular
with his race, but he is a better friend
TO them than those who entertain the
sons and daughters of Ham with noisy
sermons about golden Shippers and long
white robes.

Poisoning the System.

Walter Sinclair. the young man who
was arrested in Chester for acting dis
orderly, and who will be brought to
Wilmington on the charge Of stealing
"a horse and carriage from Liveryman
John Knots. has tried several funny
tricks in Wilmington.
Before his Chester escapade he sent
"a telegram from the Postal Telegraph
Companys office, on Market street,
and marked it collect. The message
was returned unopened. The bill,
amounting to 81 cents, was sent to Sim
clair. He sent check for S. to the
telegraph company, and asked them to
deduct the 81 cents and send him the
change. The check promptly was re-
turned and the request refused.
In few days Sinclair went into the

given the job and he worked on the
machine until night He then was
given permission to take part of it tC

NEW WSPAPER OPINION
The Delaware River Channel

ne delaware hiVer Channel
From the Philadelphia Record.
When the bids for the dredging of
the channel atReedy Island were open
ed by Captain Cosby yesterday a rather
startling statement was made by Pro-
fessor Lewis M. Haupt, on behalf of
the Reaction Jetty Company of which
he is president. The Specifications un-
der which proposals were invited by
the Government call for dredging a 90
foot channel GOO feet wide and dump
ing the dredged material behind the
timber bulkhead at Dan Baker and
Stony Point shoals-in other words, TO
continue the construction of the arti-
fetal island to which so much atton-
tiOn has been drawn. Professor IIaupt
shows that the capacity of the basin
behind this bulkhead is only about
one-flfth as great as the amount Of
material to be taken from the channel;
that the timber bulkhead is not by any
means a permanent structure; that 1t
will before long require six miles of
rock work TO hold the island down;
that the dumping will be done on the
wrong side OF the river. where it will
be an obstruction TO the free fow Of
the tides. and an encroachment upon
the normal cross section Of the river,
to the serious detIiment of the entire
upper river. Professor Haupt pro
nounces the placing of any additional
material in this locality a fundamental
error
When we remember that only so re-
Gently as 1897 was this dumping ground
established for the three and a-half
million cubic yards dredged from the
river in that year; that large part OF
the material removed has found its
way back into the channel; that the
channel has shifted one-half mile from
where it was then established; that the
range lights are no longer reliable and
that nothing better is now offered than
repetition OF what seems TO have
been a mistaken piece OF engineering,
it would appear to be the lime for the
commercial public to take some vigor-
GUS step to prevent any further waste
OF money in such futile effort. This
city has interests too great TO be haz-
arded by an inadequate and temporary
waterway to the sea- If it be feasible,
as Professor Haupt claims to have
fully demonstrated at Aransas Pass,
ON the gulf coast OF Texas, to provide
practical. scientific method for deep
ening and fixing permanent channel
which shall keep itself clear for its
full depth and width by the operation
of the natural tides and currents of the
river. the matter should have immedi-
ate consideration at the hands Of the
engineer officer who has authority to
approve a proper disposition OF the
dredged material. The experience OF
the past ought to be a sufficient guide
to better results than have heretofore
been obtained.

All in the Family

From the Detroit Free Press.
The Democratic minority in the
House has proved itself a cipher, and
no evidence has been produced to show
that a Democratic majority would be
more than a cipher. The Democrats in
the House have had most brilliant op-
portupities during the present session
OF Congress; but none of them has been
accepted. A spiritless, perfunctOry op-
position has been made to certain Re
publican measures in which there were

.bers: but even the faultfinding of THE
minority has not risen above the intel
lectual level of common scolding.
An alert and vigilant opposition is a
most necessary factor in legislation
and when the opposition is capable, il
is fair TO assume that it might be sue
cessful in constructive legislation as
well as in destructive criticism. This
assumption is not always warranted by
results; yet the exceptions are nevei
held to overturn the rule. But wher,
a party cannot present even a rationa
Opposition; when it cannot even picl
flaws intelligently in the work that TIL
majority is wrestling with, there is lit
tie hope for it.
