AND THE RACE QUESTION.

AND THE RACE QUESTION.
The present campaign in Maryland forces
upon the mind of the people the relations
of the two races in the United States.
But while this question is necessarily
raised for consideration, it does not mean
that there is race question or conflict
between the two races
Up to this time the two races have had
no issue or conflict between them, but have
lived together upon clearly marked and
distinct terms of relations one to the other.
These terms of relations were those of the
absolute supremacy of the white race, and
the absolute subordination of the black to
the white man.
This condition was, up to the war, per-
fectly satisfactory to both the white and
the black race, and this condition could
have and would have continued for all
time but for the interference of traitors in
the white race, whose interference was not
so much matter of friendship to the black
race as it was to crafty the personal gains
and ambitions of the traitors themselves.
The strongest instinct in all human ma
ture is the preservation and perpetuation
of life, and in nations the strongest senti-
ment should be the preservation of its own
race, The Almighty established distinctly
one government in the history of the
world and gave it a constitution for its
government and perpetuation. In that
constitution it was distinctly provided that
the purity of the Jewish race was to be
preserved under all conditions, as con-
dition precedent to its preservation, and
this principle has to this day perpetuated
the purity of the Jewish people This
principle is just as necessary to preserve
the white race as it was to preserve the
Jews under the old dispensation.
No superior nation can part with its SUI
periority to an inferior race without loss of
its superiority or strength
When a superior race lifts up an inferior
race, it of necessity takes lower level in
order to meet the lower race.
This is clearly proved by the mixed races
of South America and San Domingo
It seems impossible that any sane white
man desires the white race of the United
States to become such as the mixed races
of South America But the admixture of
the white and the black race in this coun-
try is impossible. In all history such a
result has never been known where the
line of demarcation is as great as it is
here, and especially where the relation OF
master and slave has so long existed.
The effort to give the black race the right
of franchise and thereby make him po-
litical factor has only had the effect of
opening the eyes of the white race to the
danger to his race. by the traitors to the
white race, and making him more active
and vigilant in defending his superiority,
and has made the black race restless and
unhappy. The franchise and little edu-
cation has made him dissatisfied with sub
ordination and filed him with desire for
social equality which he can never realize.
The worst enemy that the black race ever
had is the white traitor who has suggested
to him the idea of equality with the white
race, as he will discover it if the question
is forced to an ISSUE AS subordinate
race the negro race will be protected and
taken care of, as an equal there is but one
result possible for him and that is the same
result that followed the conflict between
the white race and the Indian, and that is
practical extermination.-Fred Citizen.
