scarcity Of labor today IS due to
the idleness OF the negro The
advance in the price of labor
enables ihe negro now to make
enough in two or three days TO

consequence is he loafs or does
nothing fully half the time, not
withstanding the fact that there
is a demand for his services six
days in the week. Almost any
hour in the day or night a lot OF
stout, able bod ed negroes may be
seen hanging around street corn

three weeks all the COWS, sheep,
goats, hogs, chickens, geese, tur-
keys, ducks, guineas, eggs, but
ter, etc, for sale in Lancaster
county, and will pay the highest
cash price for same. Our busi-
ness has increased to such an eX-
tent that we find it difficult to
keep enough meat to supply our
trade, and for this reason we are
paying a little better price than
other folks for cattle, poultry,
etc. So if you have anything in
this line for sale, bring it along
and bring it quick. We also
want to buy corn, peas, green
and dry hides. Highest cash
price paid for all.
We wish to say to our trade
that we are prepared to deliver
anything you want in the meat
line. Handling so many beeves

choice cut. We also handle fish

THE NEGRO QUESTION--pOSSIBIL-
TIES FOR GOOD OF THE COLOR
ED PREACHER.

Some colored ministers in the
town and county, we are told,
have been doing some good work
of late in appealing to their con.
grega,ions to use every effort
within their power for the sup
preston Of crime among their
own race, especially the heinous
offense of criminally assault ing
women. The preachers referred
to are earnestly striving, if we
have been correctly informed, to
build up sentiment among the
negroes for the maintenance of
law and order throughout this
section. The resolutions recent
ly adopted on the race question
by the cOlOred Methodist confer
ence at Dixie. published in The
News at the time, afford evidence
of the beneficial results of the
movement inaugurated by the
preachers to bring about better
moral conditions among the c,l-
ored race.
The News, Of course COM
mends the ministers engaged in
this work, for their labors ap.
pear to Re directed along the
line time and again suggest. d in
these columns. We have con-
tended all along that it is in the
power OF the negro preacher to
accomplish much in the wav OF
reforming the morals and i'm
proving generally the characters
OF his own people. The most
ignorant and depraved of his
race come within the sphere Of
his inhuence-a class that can
not be reached by the newspa
per or other agency for good.
The responsibility, therefore, CT
the colored minister is very
great indeed, his opportunitie s
for elevaJing the moral tone of
lis race being well-nigh unlim
tied.
While trying to stamp out
immortality and endeavoring to
encourage spirit of obedience
to law, the preachers aud other
leaders OF the colored people
might at the same time render
incalculable service to the race
along another important line, if
they would but make the proper
effort. We refer to the need Of
the cultivation in the average
negro Of an ambition to better
his material condition, TO make
