BISHOP TURNER'S UTTERAECEs.

Bishop Henry NJ. Turner Of Allan
ia, Georgia. IL he were correctly
quoted made a bitter violent attack
upon the Supreme Court OF the u
nited States during the course OF
his remarks before the Macon con
ference of the African Methodist E
piscopal Church, Friday. Nov. oath.
1905. He has been radical in this
respect before. but his bitterness in
creases with age. Some things he
said were true and will awaken 4
hearty Amen from every race-loVinE
citizen OF color in the United States:
while some others will cause these
same people 10 pause before yieluing
praise or accordingly honor for what
may be considered by the country at
large as being closely akin to treas
on.
Bishop Turner Is quoted as fol-
lows:
II am not pleased with this nation
No man hates this nation more than
| do. When ] go 10 say my prayers
I have struggle TO get 10 the place
where ] am willing for God TO allow
the United States Supreme Court 20
have part IN my prayer. That
damnable institution, which raped
the negro OF every vestige OF human
or manhood's right-the men that
compose that body may get TO heaV-
en- the best way they can. Nat very
little help God will grant them from
any request that I make.
All that this distinguished church
man says OF the Supreme Court Of
the United States is true and we are
not surprised that he went as far
in damning IL as his clerical robes
would permit him TO so. II ne
failed to use the language OF the
street. it was because he couldn't do
it and not, because ne wouldn't IL he
could
The tribunal referred TO is anti
Negro and in being SO is anu-human
rights. We are free TO say that We
have very little respect for the TIL
bunal's decisions We acted its
decisions in the InsulAr cases and
this will always be a blight upon its
record and = shame upon its DEGREES.
In our opinion. no popular. lexis-
lstiVe body Is more sensibly Affected
by public opinion than is this sribu-
nal that was created and intended
to be above such tendencies and un-
affected by popular clamor. II has
a blind side and the attorneys for
the citizen OF color are always as
signed seats and forced to argue the
question from that side OF its soul
racking chamber.
We cannot join Bishop Turner In
hating the nation. In many instan-
ces 1t has been very kind to us and
when on trial and we are permitted
70 have the use Of the forum. 1t has
invariably decided the questions at
issue in favor OF human rights only
to be reversed by this very tribunal
that Bishop Turner so httingly char
acterizes.
Bishop Turner is quoted fu-Iher:
The Negro will never be anything
in this country but a scullton until
he shows mis- manhood. Go 10 Az
RIGA and build up a great nation
that will command the respect of
the civilized world
The hrst declaration is true. but

The game was an that could he de-
sired and the team proved itself to be
the fastest that the club has ever gotten
together at the beginning of the season.
a feature of the game was the fact
that two Wilmington boys did the twirl-
ing. Frank Dolan, son of the former
chief OF police was in the box for Nam
haitian ana Joe Myers pitched for VIII
mington. Although Dol0n had tho adj
vantage of having been pitching for sew
eral weeks Myers did the best work as
he allowed but four hits and struck out
seven men. The locals put up a hard up
hill fight and won out i'm the ninth when
Davis single to left scored Hinton.
Every man on the team showed up in
good form, especially Crepo and Bussey.
Both OF them are fast helders and good
stickors. Captain Hinton ana Maher also
put up good game. Tommy Campbell,
as usual got in some good work with the
stick Davis and Miller look good and can
cover a lot Of territory in the outheld.
The only error made by Wilmington is
charged 10 Sweeney, but it was On rather
a hard chance
Tho college boys play stiif game ana

at the end Of the seventh and Mahoney

On the apex Of the Prince of

special occasions, is a curious feath-
er, or, rather, a tuft of periwak
feathers, the top Of which is adorned
with a gold thread This feather is
said to be worth 10000 and has
the distinction of being the only one
of its kind in the world. 1t took
twenty years to procure it, and it
caused the death of more than doz-
en- hunters. The reason the pursuit
Of the periwak is so dangerous is be-
cause it inhabits the jungles and
