A "The vicious and lazy and criminal class of negroes must be de nounced and condemned by all the better class of negroes as well o( as by the g >od white people, an every negro minister 6t the gos- e pel should see to it that no stone is left unturned along this line." pi The foregoing are the strong (?i words of a colored minister in ,0 Charlotte, expressed ill a lengthy " Commuuicution by him in Satur- ^c day's issue oi tlie Observer lie gives the better class of negroes atid the preachers ot his race practically the same advice that i The News has been giving them d tor some time. The writer re ] s( terred to is liie R v. M. H. di Dougherty. He believes tliat the a< future of the negro in this coun-j ' try is going to be largely what ^ the negro lumself makes it, and Pt he predicts dire consequences to ir his race unless the negro acts 111 well his part in helping to bring 11 about bettercondition8 than those now existing. 1 lie writer says: <11 ' As I see things it is and only e< Will be a matter of lime and we) the negroes ot this Southland a will be swept from the face ot hi the earth unless all bauds and) or i lie cook, as the old say ing is, go | a] to work and aid in changing the sc present ami the coming current ol j so sentiment, and the negro cm w largely do this lor 1 iins- lf bv j con itlering thai a large part ol 1 (^ the threatening calamity now burdening this St-te and coun | try can be moved by himself,I" or in o'her words, by us, and we, (to as negroes, owe it to ourselves NV and the superior race among j111 whom Providence has thrown us. 'i and to the present and the coming generation of our children, to act well our part in condemn- 8C ing the vaiious crimes committed in our ranks and by being truthlul and honest and kind toward '( the white man a' d to feel the (j( general care of the white race wherever we are hired or em j pioyed from time to time, and Irom place to place. Every ne Ml gro preacher should and ought " to speak to their congregation along this line. (j. We commend the utterances of ei this intelligent colored preacher w to the earnest and thoughtful * consideration of the negroes of . . . -i? i this section, and especially to Hie ministers and leaders of the race, p lie takes a wise view ot the situ- di ion ami clearly points out ho nicable relations may beestal shed and maintained betwee le whites anil the blacks. [)W HEARST TAKES HIS DEFEA Whatever one's opinion i oarst may be, it cannot be d led that he is taking his defei lost graciously. Hore is whi e said, in his New York pape le day after the election, whe e realized thai he had been ba< beaten: "In view of the result 1 ha\ uly to repeat wliat 1 have sai i my speeches. 1 am enlist* i this fight against the contri f the Government by the trus ad corrupt corporations,and wi pht it out to the end, but wi ?rve in the lead or in the rani ist, as the people desire, aseari itlv and loyally in one place j i the other. The people decid* > retain the Republican part i power. 1 will make my fig] \ I he ranks, therefore, as a pr ale citizen, and do ray best 1 roniote the interests of my fe >w-citizens." Tliose are brave, manly word hich commend themselves iends and foes alike. PPENDICITIS AND FOOD PPESEI VATIVES. Every now and then some re ieory is advanced as to the cam ! appendicitis, that modern di ?i-e so prevalent and so muc readed. The latest demandii: ublic attention is that it is pr need by the preservatives put i od nowadays. On this subje* r. W. \V.
