A NEW YEARS. GREETING.
Bp PROF. KEEL Y MILLER.

/ retrograde. The race has been dis
frapehised and jim ~rowed and segre-
gated. Lynching and burning of Ne
groes amid horrors of indescribable
atrocity, has become a fixed American
institution. The Christian conscience
has become sere, and only Christ in
Heaven weeps.
There is no other source of help
but God and you. The white race
through philanthropy has done much;
but its vicarious task was practically
completed when it developed you.
You must do the rest Our gratitude
can never repay the debt we owe.
They spoke for us when our tongues
were tied; they pleaded for us when
we were speeches.. But now our
faculties are Embossed; we must stand
on our own footing. The greatest
gratitude that the beneficiary can
show to the benefactor is, as soon as
possible, to do without his benefac-
ton True, we are not yet able to
cut loose wholly from the benevolent
assistance; we still need some more
earrings and finger-rings and other
furnishings from the Egyptians, but
the great outstanding fact remains,
the task of race craftsmanship and
reclamation is not primarily the white
mans burden, but yours. Upon you
will depend its success or failure.
AS far as righteous insistence upon
inalienable human rights will permit,
live at peace and helpful cooperation
with all men, North and South, East
and West. But never under any in
ducements of cowardice or prudence or
thrift, should you deviate from the
straight line of righteousness, which
alone points out the way and points
the way out
Moral energy and race loyalty
should be brought to bear upon your
task whether you be engaged in the
production of wealth or in the more
condite pursuits, which administer to
the higher needs of man.
The white race is fast losing faith
in the Negro as an efficient and ac-
ceptable factor in the equation of our
civilization. Curtailment of political,
civil and general privilege and oppor-
tunity is but the outward expression
of this apostacy AS the white mans
faith in you decreases, your faith in
yourselves must increase. Every
Negro in America should be taught
daily, with his face turned toward the
light, to utter this prayer: Lord, l
believe; help thou my unbelief!"
Through courage, expressed in the
active as well as the passive voice,
courage to do and courage to endure,
you must assert and exert your man
hood, that you will not only believe
in yourselves, but4the rest of the
world will believe m You, Then, and
not till then, all will be we'll.
Such is the mark and the high call
ing to which you are called May you
rise to the level of it.

To Colored Men: Greetings

| To ColOred Men: Greetings
am taking advantage of the APP.
preaching New Year to address you a
few words of serious greeting. You
represent the first generation of your
race, now grown to fullness of the
stature of manhood, under the influ.
ence and power of education. You
are the first ripened fruit of philan-
thropy and by you alone will its wis
dom or folly be justified The hope
of the race is focused in you. You
are to furnish the headlight to direct
the path through the dangers and vi
cissitudes of the wilderness. For want
of vision the people perish; for want
of wise direction they stumble and
fall
There is no body of men in the
world to-day, nor in the history of the
world, who have, or ever have had,
greater responsibilities or more COW
eted opportunities than devolve upon
you 1t is indeed a privilege to be a
Negro of light and leading in such a
time as this. The incidental embar-
easements and disadvantages which,
for the time being must be endured,
are not to be compared with the far
more exceeding weight of privilege
and glory which awaits you if you
rise to those high demands. For such
privilege we'll may you forego the
pleasures of civilization for a season.
Your world consists of ten million
souls, who have wrapped up in them
all the needs and necessities, powers
and possibilities of human nature;
they contain all the forms of civ
ilization, from it's roots to it's flores
cence. Yours is the task to develop
and vitalize these smothered faculties
and potentialities. Your education
will prove to be but vanity and veXa-
ton of spirit, unless it ultimates in
this task You are the salt of this
earth, and if the salt loses it's SAVIOUR,
wherewith shall it be sailed? If the
light within the racial world be dark
ness, how great is that darkness!
The highest call of the civilization
of the world to-day is to the educated
young men of the belated races. The
educated young manhood of Japan,
China, Egypt, and Turkey must lift
their own people up to the high level
of their own high conception. They
must partake of the best things in the
civilization of Europe and show them
unto their own people! alYour task is
the same as. theirs, intensified, per-
haps, by the more difficult and intri-
cate tangle of circumstances and con-
ditions with which you must deal. ~
4 You cannot afford to sink into sloth-
full satisfaction and do your little job,
draw your little pay, and enjoy your
itasteless leisure, and with inane self
deception hide your little head under
the shadow of your wings, like the
foolish bird, which thereby hopes to
escape the wrath to come.
n AS you look over the field the whole
sweep of racial movement seems to be

CHICAGO. April l9.-Robert T. Lincoln

company next month. according to a
statement printed here today. The con-
tinued I'll health of Mr. Lincoln is given
as the cause OF his impending retirement
from the active management of the cor
poration.
1T Is true that Mr. LLncolns health is
very poor" said John S. Reynolds, vice
president of the Pullman company, last
night but it is untrue that he has re-
signed as president of the company. Pub
lication of such a rumor at this time is
premature. 1t is true that l moved into
Mr.. Lincoln's offices and that 1 am doing
some work there. but that does not
necessarily mean that he is going to re-
tire or that I am going to succeed him. "
