Many of our people complain that
they have paid for one of our local
publications and never received it
also that they have contributed fl

describing somewhat In detail the
growing opportunities for the indus.
trial and economic development Of the
Negro in the south. The deliverance,
coming from such high source. has
attracted nation wide attention
After expressing his heartfelt thanks
to his fellow Tennesseeans and his
friends from other states who had
joined with them In rendering this
splendid testimonial and reviewing
briefly the civil and political status of
the race since the war Mr.. Napier
said in part:
The pre1ud1ceS engineered by the pecul-
lar conditions following the close Of the
civil war and famed into a burning fame
by what took place during the reconstruc-
ton period, we must confess, took deep
root in the minds Of both white and col
ored people, 1t Is but reasonable to con-
clude that these conditions could not be
altered in day. But these conditions are
changing, and a better feeling is being
manifested almost In all the relations be-
tween the white and colored people of the
south. There Is large and growing class
Of people on both sides who have set their
heads together In the effort to create a
better spirit and a better feeling between
neighbor and neighbor. whether that
neighbor be black or a white man.
A result Of all this Is that the colored
people are building homes and character
and are throwing around these the strong
arm Of protection. They are establishing
themselves in the business Of trades and
commerce and are fixing lines of credit
and confidence in almost every communi-
ty. They are pushing into every phase Of
the civilization that surrounds them. They
are buying land and are becoming agri-
culturists The colored man sees the need
Of a drug store. and he opens one. He
finds a neighborhood where a grocery
store Is needed. and Immediately he be-
gins the work Of establishing that branch
Of business In short he constitutes an
important factor In every industry that
engages the attention of the people In the
different communities In which he lives.

medium. It reaches the homes and

read the Twin City Star.
