is not because there are not among
them paupers, for there are. It is tru,
that among those people in thi.
country there are drunkards, and ar
idle, indolent worthless class; tina
they have their criminal class and tha
they have committed every Grim.
known to the criminal calendar, fol
their is no crime known to human
kind that has not been committed By
the white man;-but il is becaus,
there is no organized interference
with the rights and privileges of those
people; no studied restriction Of thei,
liberties; no Vardaman, no Tillman
no Thomas Dixon ct al, whose great
aim in life is to prevent the enjoyment
of their equal rights under the laws
of this land. No attempt to alter the
natural order of things with which
they are concerned. No attempt to
interfere with the privileges of their
natural course. No attempt to restrict
their right of passage or to change
their channel for selfish purposes.
It is the utter disregard of the law
of God and man, and the desire to
change things where the Negroes
rights are involved in this country
that creates the Negro Race Problem.
The solution of the whole problem
involving the white man and the
black man is simple justice, a recogni-
ton of the fact that the rights of the
humblest citizen are as worthy Of
protection as the highest. Apply this
method and the problem will be
solved.
But whatever may be in store for
this nation in the future; whether
prosperity or adversely; whether there
be foes within or foes without,
whether there shall be peace or war,
the Negro always will be a loyal and
faithful American citizen, and we sim
cerely hope the day will soon come
when he will be treated as such.
Atty Francis spoke at length on the
remarkable rise and progress of Chas.
w. Scrutchin, of Bemidji, Mimi, and
Turner Bell of Leavenworth, Kans.,
the noted Negro attorneys, as ex-
amples Of the possibilities Of the
highest development of Negro brain
and character under the most adverse
circumstances.
