GEORGIA, THE DEVILS OWN.

GEORGIA, THE DEVILS OWN,
Georgia, that hell-hole Of America
has gone step further in it's injustice
to its good citizens who happen to be
darker in complexion than those who
control the destinies of that more or
less grand old commonwealth.
The state senate by unanimous
vote has passed bill which will pro-
hibit white persons from teaching in
the colored schools either public or
private, in that state.
The bill is intended as slap at
such schools at Atlanta University,
Cannon Theological Seminary and
others, in which practically all Of the
instructors are white men and women.
One of the worst features of the
case is the seeming Indifference of the
colored people whose liberties are
again attacked by the infamous meas
ure. So far as we are able to learn,
no strong protest has been made. One
Atlanta cOlored paper printed for four
days the bill that was passed but
evidently did not consider the matter
as worthy of mention even in ils news
columns, for not a single line concern
ing it appears, and we have scanned
the columns carefully.
The Southern colored people owe a
debt of gratitude to the noble band
of white people who have left their
homes in the North, from the time Of
the shareholders rebellion to the
present and have gone into the South,
where they have been socially ostra-i

Embitters All but DociIe Negro.
(From the Savannah Tribune

In many of the Southern States,
years ago, c0lored troops were allowed
and maintained. One by one these
states disbanded the colored troops.
Georgia was better orgonized than any
Of the other states, and was the last
to disband the colored trops. In event
Of war, especially of any duration, the
colored man will be badly needed, but
has he been trained or has he been
encouraged to take up arms to fight
in defense Of his country? He has
been prescribed and debarred of many
privileges that are justly his and which
would embitter any other race but the
docile Negro. .

1t is amusing to see in a number of
colored papers the announcement that
a negro has been elected an alderman
in Chicago. There is absolutely no
truth in the statement. Oscar De-.
Priest who has been elected is a COL
ored man and more white than black.
He should be called just what he is
colored man. .-.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1915-07-24

The Louisville News is making a
great fight against segregation of res
licences and tells the colored citizens
that they can help by refusing to be
segregated in other walks vi life.
Segregation is wrong whether in a
dive or church and any church
which practices it is no better than a
dive.
