BISHOP NELSON TALKS
BISHOP NELSON PUBLISHES CARD
SAYING THE NEGRO LIVES
TWO LIVES.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 11.-Bishop c
X. Nelson. of Georgia, who is in at
, tendance upon the Episcopal triennia
convention, gave out strong article
for publication yesterday on the negro
Question which has created considera
ble discussion.
In part the bishop says:
1T is simply out of the question for
any man to be rightly informed ot
the condition and progress of the
southern negro without long residence
Ills manners and his speech cannot be
Interpreted by the casual traveller: his
hopes, his ambitions, his inner feeling
are often perfectly disguised and it
- an open secret that the negro lives
two different lives, one among the
whites and another the members of
his own race.
Religion to the great majority OF
the race, does not carry recognition
OF the presence of God as the controll-
ing influence of life. nor definite
creed and an ethical code, but some
thing different from these.
Morally, the race is in a most rudi-
mentary stage, its virtues are frequent
Is induced tendencies or negative
states.
Statistics show that the race is abb
sclutely o nthe decease, owing chiefly
to indifference to sanitation, hygiene
and the principles of life and health. ;"

to save the property, declaring that
when a dozen passengers waited on the
captain and asked why he had not sig
nailed the Holyoke for the purpose of
placing them aboard the steamer, the
captain replied: Il am running this

lions when the boat was alongside

wanted to save the steamer; that was
what he was looking after, now"
Davis declared the Clalam did not

bar Of he state was not held in re-

this fault was to be charged TO the
members Of the bar, by reason of their
lapses IN failing to display courage. He
said he doubted If there was lawyer
in the state who knew enough about
the rules of the supreme court TO take
