Remedies for the Problem.

Never was there more brazen asser-

Of civilization and more determined eff
fort to prevent their rising. They DELHI

cial uplift; go the developing of a compe-
tent and high-class black clergy; @ the
announcement of worthy colored leaders.
and 81 the search for the knowledge and
the truth of the race problem. This no
one of us knows, for the problem has
never been resolved into its factors; never
been scientifically studied as one studies
in laboratory all the problems of mod

that these things. II undertaken, would
enormously benefit all the states of the
Union. Could any t. ;thful man assert
that they would injure Angle-Saxon in

are policies dictated by good morals, good

have been followed long ago were our
southern states not so backward by rea-
son Of the curse of slavery.
II have still another Indictment against
these so-called leaders. and 1t is one Of
the most serious which can be brought
against any man claiming craftsmanship
They are never constructive and always
destructive. They have never a construc-
