We are immensely pleased with this Jitorial from the Richmond News,eader: "There is no need of an anti-negro ampaigu this year, but we seem to be illing into it. Many of the democrat; newspapers have begun already iniscrimiuate abuse of the negro, partly rom force of habit and partly because ; is easy and safe. He has few friends nd no organs to hit back in his behalf. Here in the South the question of rhite supremecy is settled.

"The negro Is on our hands. We have put him out of politics. There is no need or excuse for abusing him as a race any more, nor 'for stirring feeling against him.

Of the above the Charlotte Observer ? says: J It is a thankless thing to eutera c word for the black man. He is the vie- ? tim of much white prejudice and can't requite his frlendp. He takes no pa- a pers and does not know that anybody ? i speaks up in his behalf. But, "for jus- t| tice all places a temple and all seasons n summer." Yea, why abusetbe nigger? ?

To prove that we do ot believe it ourselves it need only be lid that when the negroes begin to ligrate even from one Southern state > another we make legislative enactlents to stop them. Unless, therefore, re want them to go away, all of them nd forever, why continue to abuse hem, from tbe stump aud elsewhere? lS suggested above, tbey are out of olitics. In the last election in North .'arolina few of them voted and the minritv nf the few who did voted the emocratic ticket. It is mighty safe d easy to blackguard a blind man or cirpple, but none of us has much repect for the sound man, in possession fall his faculties who does it. The ares are not dissimilar.
