Belton, March 14.-Editor K?owae Courier: Will you favor me with space in your paper for the following article? To the White Christian Churches and White Citizens of the Town of Walhalla-Greeting: This address may, to many of you, be a little surprise, especially when learning that lt ls from a negro about whom you know but little. But I am a negro citizen of the town of Bel ton, and have been, with the excep tion of ten years, for moro than 40 years, or since a small boy. Any one wishing to know more fully about me, I refer you to Col. D. A. Geer, ex-mayor; .J. H. Horton, or the pres ent mayor. .J. K. Clement, a man who has known me ever since I was a boy. One year ago the New Galilee Bap tist church of your town tendered to me a call to Its pulpit as pastor, which was accepted, after due con sideration. I have served the church as best 1 could under the circum stances, but we are laboring under one great disadvantage, and that ls our house of worship ls far too small to accommodate the congregations that assemble there In good weather, to say nothing of the uncomfortable condition of the house. At one time we decided lo repair the present house In the hope ihat that would for the time meet the keenly-felt need; but having had lt Inspected by one of the leading white contractors of your town, he says that it would be a waste of time and money to under take such *a job, so it remains for us to stay where we are and suffer all the ill consequences, or to tear down and build another, using as much of the old house as may be flt in build ing the new one. The church has decided to pursue the latter course, and in so deciding we realize our In ability to put up the kind of house needed for actual use as well as to put up one that would in some meas ure do credit to your fast-growing town. I feel a profound Interest in the welfare of the community and wish to do what I can for the general up lift of my people, but lt ls uot possi ble for me to do much in the pres ent hampered condition; and when taking into account the size of the membership and their poverty stricken condition, I am constrained to ask myself the question, shall I remain here at a waste of time as well as a waste of energies, trying to do the bidding of the Lord, or would it be more pleasing to Him to give up the work and go where my pow ers might be used to better advant age? Between these two extremes I hesitated for some time, bxit after praying and thinking over the situa tion, from every viewpoint, it was made plain to my mind that if the latter course were followed it would show weakness on my part as a man, as well as betray in me a lack of faith in the assurance given by our commun Lord and Master. So, my hope being inspired by the confi dence entertained in the little church, and faith in the generous heart of the public. 1 decided to remain, and by the help of God improve the relig ious facilities of the church and the colored i>eople generally of the town; and with this decision came .the con clusion to appeal to our white friends to help us in raising the required amount to start the work. Thia^e ing done, with the reasonable Indul gence offered, I have no fear in ;ay Ing that the members will pay for lt. Bro. Gadsden and the members gene rally have great respect and confi dence in the white friends of Wal halla, and I am appealing to you ( 1 ) Because you stand committed, by Divine injunction, to aid In giving the Gospel to all races and nations. (2) Because of your great ability and knowledge of the Important part that n good church plays In carrying out this great command. (3) Because a good church exerts a tremendous influence for the good In the community, In helping race condition?. In creating sentiment conducive to habits of industry, in giving Impetus to most desirable moral conditions, In stimulating re ligious life-one of the most essen tial needs of my people, and, In deed, of mankind tho world over. i ; i H,WM ni-., * >, ?> church lt: a g.

And I am appealing to you, white friends, because lt has pleased God to make you the stewards of nearly everything in this country-the land, railroads, banks, stores and govern ment with Ita thousands pf offices, all are yours; and this appeal Is in HmMSHP^HI 555 to ?li?/>U . ? 4 J. ti li Bad Spe "1 suffered, during girlhood, from womanly weakness," writes Mrs. Mollie Navy, of Walnut, N.

Obregon, tbe rebel comamnder, to-night at fi.40 o'clock, after a terrific battle which lasted throughout the day. During the conflict several persons on the American side of the border were wounded. American troops were rushed here iron? Fort Huachuca, Ariz., and to night 600 troopers of the Fifth Cav alry are on duty along the border. Despite protests from Lieut. Col. Tate and Consul Simplch many bul lets struck on the American side throughout the day. The renewed attack late In the afternoon increased the danger to residents of the Ari zona town. Three non-combatants were wounded here, while two Ameri can women had narrow escapes from injury, one bullet oven piercing a woman's skirt while on the porch of her home. The killed or wounded in the day's battle could not bo estimated. Twenty injured from both sides were brought to hospitals here, but an American physician who braved the firing lines reported many more wounded v/ho could not be reached without danger to th? rescuers. American residents here quickly gave their services as Red Cross volun teers.
