THE CITY LADS CHANGES nv THE WEST.

5Ma He call for labor in the great Northwest TO harvest the
crops has had q surprising effect. The labor agencies
are receiving inquiries from every State in the East asking
<or information and transportation. The Star has received
|pquiries from a score of young men in Newark, anxious for EN-
Bloyment. The need for labor is in Minnesota, the two Dakotas
Ind in the British Northwest. Many of the men who shall re
pond TO the call will remain and grow up with the country.
10 not O few the change will mean fortune. For a young, yigor-
ms and ambitious man who is willing to do hard work the same
khances are open as there were for the men who are now settled
N the Northwest, who have prospered and who send out this call
ter labor. Youth, pluck, energy and application made the great
Vest, which awaits greater development by the same means.
here are thousands of capable young men in our Eastern cities
whose opportunities are limited and small who would succeed
p the new and boundless field open for them. Not a few who
3rft into shiftless and vicious courses in the crowded cities
possess the very qualities to command success and make good
Ind useful citizens.

"A NEW DEAL FOR THE SOUTHERN BLACf

UCATED and thinking negroes both North and South
IL have come to realize at last that the welfare of their race
in this country must be worked out on different lines
from those that have SO utterly failed since emancipation day,
They see that their race is placed in a false position in its rela-
|tions with the whites in the South by politics. Under present
conditions they despair of the future for the Southern negro.
Eliminate politics, separate the negro from mercenary leaders
land evil counselors, turn his attention to education, to industry
and thrift, to the acquisition of property, to the proper training
of his children, and the uplft of the race will be wonderful. The
southern whites and blacks understand each other, and between
them are traditional bonds of sympathy. Fear of negro domi
nation, too well justified by the events of the reconstruction
period, is the only bar between the races. That dispeled, white
and black will work together in harmony for the development
lot the South and for their mutual welfare. As it is now the
Southern negro in politics is a menace to the State and an injury
Ito his race.
