THE RACE PROBLEM.

There is a good deal of foolish tall
on the part of Southern statesmen OF
otherwise prominent men about the
solution of what they call the Negro
or race problem. Much of it is sug
gestive of the expatriation of the col
ored people. Some express a hope
that they will mostly move up North
after awhile -impelled thereto, we
suppose the thought is, by unbearable
prescription and persecution. An
other brilliant suggestion is that they
be sent down to dig the Panama canal
as though they could be- forced to go
to Panama against their will any more
than white people-and then if they
did go, what would they do after the
canal was finished? And how could
they all or large proportion of them
be- maintained there? But in some way
or another they are to be gotten rid
of, if possible, for it seems to be con-
ceded that to exterminate them would
be- too big a job.
There are more sensible Southern.
ers, however, who perceive the folly
of such schemes and ideas, and also
know that the South needs the labor
of the Negroes and could not well do
without it, even if a good many of
them don't work much. The fact is
that the colored people have a perfect
right to live in the South, or in any
other part of the country, the same as
white people have, and to the same
rights and liberties under the law and
protection by the law, because they
are full legal citizens A good many |
people who discuss "the Negro prob
lem" seem to assume that the Negro
is creature to be considered as one !,
entirely apart from membership in
the human family, as a part of the
brute creation or some pestilential
plague not to be considered at all ex-
oept in connection with some means
Of getting rid of them. People who
entertain this sort of idea cannot dis
,uss the matter intelIigently. The Ne
sroes must be accepted as part of
he citizenry of the country and treat
I'd accordingly. If they violate the I
avs punish them. Encourage them
" all possible means to work, to bc ]
Industrious and honest and to become
Independent. But they are not to be '
nor expatriated. There a
s no need of full social equality, and b
is not or should not be desired on G
me side more than on the other. T
here is no social equality among b
Thite people either and no great fuss |;
5 made about it. But colored people n
ught to be accorded their political p
lights, and encouraged to prize Amer s
ian citizenship by political recogni- a
ion. Their labor is needed in many a
rays, and large proportion of them fl
re capable and willing workers. If
9th races would behave themselves
etter and work more and talk less,
nd each attend to it's own business,
nd recognize others rights, the race
roblem" would soon dwindle into in
gnifcance.

The copper era. (Clifton, Graham County, Ariz.) 1899-1911, 1906-03-29

Twenty-eight hundred ounces in
silver 30.7 per cent. lead and rich in
gold, we're the sum and substance OF
an assay report received by Fred G.
Hernudy by mail last week and these
figures tell the of big and very i'm.
portant strike made at the threshold
of Paradise. While Mr.. Bernudy
was very confident that assay results
would prove to be very favorable,
yet his expectations were much ex.
ceeded by the correct figures. He
was the most surprised to know that
the. ore was rich in gold. Assays for
silver and lead only had been asked
for. But the assayers wrote that the
specimens were rich in gold. "We
are holding pulp" they wrote.
''Shall we complete assay for gold?'i
1t is almost needless to say that Mr..
Bernudy replied in the affirmative to
the question. The figures for gold
will therefore be made public shortly.

BARBECUE JOE RETURNS ALIVE.
He Gives Vivid Description OF Fight
With a Party of Seri Indians.

Oliver Hoskins, better known in
Douglas as Barbecue Joe, a colored
cook of the party recently reported
to have been attacked by Seri In
dams at Santa Ana Bay, Southern
California, arrived in Douglas last
week.
He tells vivid tale of the attack
on the surveying and prospecting
party he was with. Emery Chalfon,
of Nogales, was at the head of the
party, and with Joe was re-
ported by the newspapers as killed
in the fight. But such was not the
case, and he landed safe at Nogales
a few days ago from the long and
perilous trip.
The story as given by Joe is as fol
lows:
son the evening of February 26,
about o'clock, a band of Seri In
dams attacked the camp at Santa
Ana Bay, Southern California, firing
their rifles into the camp. The fire
was more or less promptly returned,
and the Indians finally drew off.
Next morning the bodies of nine
dead Seri Indians were found near
the camp, and the party of fourteen
surveyors and prospectors took up
the trail of the band and followed it
so hard that they ran into the bunch
and had another fight, killing sew
eral more of the Indians and losing
no men themselves. 1t was here seen
that white man was leading the In
dams, and several long shots were
taken at him, but he got away. The
white man was thought to be an
American, for some reason not ex-
planned. He wore a Mexican SON.
brero and American garments. y

HUGHES Declares for Government Own
erShip.

The incident of strongest interest
is the session of the annual conven-
tion of the Cattle Raisers' AssoCia-
ton of Texas was the address of
Colonel w. E. Hughes, of Denver, on
the topic of National Legislation
Affecting the Livestock Industry"
Colonel Hughes, in the course of
his address practically declared in
favor of government ownership of
railroads. He said, among other
things:
''Whoever owns the transportation
of a country, owns the country. If
the government cannot regulate
rates it must own the railroads. We
propose to look into this, to see to it
that the public utilities are not so
monopolized and managed for the
benefit of the few. A condition of
affairs that admits of any one man
acquiring in his own lifetime $780,
100000 is radically wrong govern
ment. Railroad ownership in Ger
many pays 6 per cent. per annum
profit, stops stock juggling, bond Jug
Cling, rate juggling, rebates, dis
examinations, undertaking, wrong
classification and frauds on shippers.
ST am most decidedly in favor of
the Federal government having the
sole power to create and absolutely
control all corporations that are en-
gagged in interstate commerce or that
sell transportation, fuel, water or
light to the people; and 1 would
gladly hail any movement that took
from the states the right to create
these corporations privileges and to
turn them loose with their pirate
crew to monopolize and control the
things without which the people can
not live"

impression that the Western miners
