 What the ignorant and uniettered negro goes fin the Northern States for iS to have an easy time with kigh wages and little work; but what the more intelligent of the race seek ln social equality with the white race. Negro men want white wives. Mr. Baker says nothing on thiE point ex~ cept that in social matters among the better classes the race line is closely drawn, although the two races meet In churches and schools, but among the poorer classes Of whites there is no question that the negro men wifk property can and do marry white wo- men. Several years ago the Massa2 chusetts Commissioner of Labor, in hts the subject. which were printed at the time in The Picayune.
 Negroes who are fortunate enough to be wealthy command the degree of attention and consideration which usually attaches to wealth.
 But after all the race problem fn this country can only be solved by the distribution of the ten millions of the negroes through the varIoua States of the Union so that there will be no longer any excess of negro pop. ulation in any part of the South. The negro. like every other member of the population, must work out his own salvation by useful industry and tha building up of character for reIia- bility and truthworthiness. The time has paeeed when he is to be coddlad and treated as a pet He must work Sor A living and make his own place in the community in which he lives.
 The negro comes in direct compofi- ton with all the various races of nnsn who inhabit and are seeking homes in this republic. By being brought Ia contact with them as 1aborers and iss whatever other departments of aervics ard usefulness they may seek a iive~ lihood their intelligence will be devel. oped. their energies increased. and whatever of, capacity or talents they for exercise, something that VIII bo impossible where the negro populaffon is congested in great masses which become a menace to the safety and order of society.
 The Picayune wishes the negroes al1 the good that they are capable Of reaching by their best efforts. It ia. only by such efforts that the people of any race are entitled to succeed, and they can ask no more.
