NALIST AND EXTENSIVE
TRAVELLER.
Comments Upon Our Recent Jubilee
and Race Possibilities.

Apropos: The recent jubilee fes-
tivities, celebrated in this city under
auspices of the most representative
and active citizens Of my race ex-
traction. I cannot help but, where
possible, express self.
1t has been my God-given privi-
lege and premise to, in some manner
or another, attend every function Of
import somewhere and at time that
has ever taken place in this or other
countries concerning the welfare of
my own race of people during the
past twenty-six years. Yet, with and
despite all, never have / witnessed
such a uniform, able, clock-like and
euphonious program as was that rem
dered by the citizens and talent of
Des Moines at the Congregational
churches on last New Years day.
Very true the writer may have
been fortunate in meeting and min
Cling with this citizenship upon a
gala and holiday, but it remains to
be said that his witness is such that
where like precepts are carried out
and adhered to success and emolu-
ment are to crown our every effort.
The philosophy which affects to
teach that we are to continue the un-
manly, baby-like, harping and nag
ging at one another is to be and must
be done away with if we ever expect
to rise above the mediocre in life and
into its gracious work. The tenden-
cies to develop along only singleness
of line are to be nullified; the dis
position to worship along the emo
tionalisn-the ostentatious and snowy
is to cease and the material and
real is to be substituted therefor.
The pulpit orator, the scholar, the
farmer, laborer and mechanic all are
to come into their own and the de-
sired through this recent example set
channel of unanimity of action by our
citizenship and people.
Very true, the millennium has not
come. nor has the mirage of the
pIOuIiScu ldIlu IuIy va "hC''' CV
both seem near at hand where like
festivities are felicitated.
Our cloth as yet has not fully
ceased Tin denominations to hearken
and tacitly yield to the superstitious
and selfish thoughts of that they are
the only ones sacrificing, yet they
are happily showing toward that end.
Too much credit cannot be given
the committee and the directing spirit
and hand which guided it Coupled
with the handiwork Of Cody for their
intellectual treat and revelations.
The writer's comments are but
mild and limited to what his feelings
are.

Evil is he who evil does.
