ENGLISH PAPERS ON OUR RACE f
PROBLEM j
Even the English press is tak- ing
a ttreat interest in the race c
O 17
question in this country, Some t
of the British papers, we learn ?
from the Atlanta Journal, strong- n
ly advise the United Slates to
repeal the constitutional amend- e
ment enfranchising the negro.? '
On this subject the St. James c
Gazette says : I
The truth is that America 1
ought to abroga'e that part of i
the constitution which relates to L
the black population, be prepar- j
ed to treat it as a distinct race
on a lower scale of evolution, s
and deal with it in a special ^
way. d
This does not signify segrega- v
tion, hut it does mean, in a sense, [
separation?the separation that
involves the relation ol master
and servant., and class and class,
and implies a certain amount ot 1
association. e
Neither does it signify injus- j
tice ; the denial of racial and social
equality is not a denial of
equity. Their treatment must
be absolutely just and kind * *
For a long time they will have
to be treated, net as citizens of <.
a republican state, but as subjects.
J
Many thoughtful Republicans
now admit that their party made)
a mistake whan it placed thej^
ballot in the hands of the negro
before he was ready lor it, hut at
this late day they are not likely
to look with favor on the suggestion
ot The (iazette.
^ ' I 1
Other Lnglish papers express
surprise at the talk in this cnun- 11
try of "taking over" Cuba, when! ''
by such action tlie United Slates 8
would be increasing instead of j P
diminishing its race troubles. 1

WHY ONE OCCASIONALLY GOES r
FROM LANCASTER TO ROCK HILL. r
T
; I
Our esteemed contemporary,!,
the Hock Hill Record, is getting
n
real frisky and venturesome
since the street sprinkler season
is about over. During the hot I
summer months the Record is to 11
absorbed in the contemplation of (
Rock Hill's leading attraction?jfl
the street sprinkler in action? ^
that it becomes oblivious to all
else, apparently. Now that the s
sprinkler has gone into winter tl
quarters, we are pleased to ob c
servo that our contemporary isjtl
it-ting up and taking notice
theranu better things.
Our friend, for example, 1?
ug seen in The News that ]
. E. Honeycut had moved lr
rvncaster to Rock Hill, is mo
c> exclaim,"Here's another 1
itizen !" And then adds,"
'anted to get into a live tow
'lie ether day when The N
la led that Mr. Geo. Cowan 1
emoved to R >ck Hill, the
rd innocently asked it Lrun
or was too slow lor him.
No, esteemed but unsophi
ated contemporary, while
re not in I he confidence of eit
entleman, we do not beli
hat Mr. Honevcut left her
nd a "live town" or that
Jowan went hack to Rock ]
ecause Lancaster wasn't
tioush for him. It is more lil
hat they found life in Lanca
ltogether too strenuous
hem, and wanting to get
ood quiet place to rest and ?
ff, they naturally went to K
lill, just as did our former
ow citizen Col. Mcllwain, '
ifter standing for some years
ierce activities of Lancaster
inally realized that lie was
ng both his breatli and Lis 1
?so he moved to Rock Hill
>rder t<> catch a fresh hole
he former and to give the la
m opportunity to grow
igain.
So far as Mr. Cowau isconci
'd, we knew when he came <
lore a year or so ago tha
ouldn't hold out very lonj
lis rotundity, you know, i
he Grover Cleveland brand,
s therefore unsuiled tothe&ti
losity of Lancaster. It ta
loek Ilillians like Lewis 11a
on, Bill Williams and Tom 1
ie?men ol the loug, keen, s
ler-slatled variety?to keep
rith the swift, rapully-nio\
juncasler procession.
We congratulate the Rock ]
iecord on its splendid indust
diti< n issued yesterday. I
ndee 1 a credit to our esteei
ontemporary as well as to 1!
