In his efforts to have the plan put into execution, Senator Mor gun has held frequent consults- ( tion with Secretary of War Hoot; has consulted Governor General ^ Taft, and in other ways urged his , I scheme on the officials, j It is the Alabainian purpose in , ! the future to start legislation in { congress for the movement to eol onize the Negroes in the Philippines. He has not pushed this ( work because he believes the time ( is not ripe yet for legislation; the farmers'of the south, he says, ( think they need the Negro now, , and v.ntil conditions are more favorable, he will withhold the pro ( posed legislation. He believes, ( however, that the move now under way will result eventually in ( millions of the Negroes emigrating ipina.isla n ds and_wQ^k- ] mg Out their own salvation there. This, he says, is the solution of the grave Negro question which 1 now confronts the Ameiicnn peo- 1 ole. * t Senator Morgan s plan is to j incorporate for the Negroes, steamship transportation companies; to give them homesteads (if , about twenty acres each in tho fc island and to give them the best possible commercial advantages ? The plan weuld not deprive them 1 of their protection under the flag \ of tho United Statos; it would not 1 deprive them of citizeuship, of 1 which they are proud, and it 1 would euable tbom to become a ( self sustaining and prosperous < race of people, because the land r in the Philippine islands is ex 1 tremely rich and fertile. The 1 climate is exactly suited to the \ , Negroes' physical and industrial < character, he says. Under this i - plan Senator Morgan believes great numbers of the Negroes, but ; not all of them, of course, would go to the islands. CURES BLOOD POIKON.-TREAT* > MENT FREE.
