Il seems strange tlrat just III proper

elements of the colored race organize
and attempt to bring together the two
races in Il cooperative agreement to
the end that the friendly relationship
may be increased. the other elements
sof both races pr Ocecd to do what they
c.n to make non-cifcctive all such eff
forts. We have been living in the
Southland from birth and we must adj
NIT that conditions now existing are
peculiar. We have seen in this section
the future home Of the Negro and we
thavo pictured to ourselves the loyal,
justice loving Offspring Of the old
slaVe-holding elements as the best
friends OF the Negro.
For this reason, we have made
speeches: over the length and breadth
Of this country urging cOlorcd people,
who went North TO come on back home.
Hero were the progressive members OF
our race. aided and abcttcd by the bet
ter class Of the white people Of their
respective communities. Party lines
nave broken down and in supportin;,
natlVe-born southerners, the colorcd
man had hope and a promise of fair
play. We are still clinging to this hope.
RMS is why we have asked for charity
and help in dealing with our financial
enterprises, which under southern
democratic management we have been
permitted to build.
We must admit that recent events
nave Jared our faith and chilled our
aspirations. but with a trust in a good
'Eod and belief that the better ele
ments will maintain supremacy in this
