The race riots in Chicago ; and Washington, the homes of the alleged devoted friends of the negro, may well furnish food for meditation. 'These demonstrations were the fierc est ever experienced in the nation’s history, ami were especially surpris ing to the South, who has been so criticised for its lynchings in the past by the northern and western press, and the natural inquiry arises in the light of these manifestations of bit terness, whether the north and west are ip, truth -arid-m’ fact friends of the negro, at least better friends than the south. .. The negro is, as it were indigenous to the south. He is accustomed to its institutions and familiar with h ; s con ditions and environment and thrives in its climate. Apart from its social inequalities, the south furnished to him contentment, happiness and pros perity, ami his ambitions ,are satis fied, and if let.alone he desires no- other existence. It is true that trouble has fre quently arisen in the south, and lynchings have more or less been in dulged in; but these- were simply sporadic events, due to the commis sion of certain crimes which brought immediate and condign punishment, and as soon as punishment was ad ministered normal conditions were immediately restored. _There _ has never been any up-rising of such an extraordinary character as occurred in Washington and Chicago, and the better class of the colored race recog nized ho\yever deplorable lynchings are that there were justifiable causes for their occurrence, in the miscon duct of the offending negro. In the riots that have occurred however, no satisfactory explanation has been given for their origin. They do not ap'pehr to have occurred be cause of apy immediate act, but on the contrary appear Ho have been the.) result of a deep seated underlying racial antagonism, the spiothered fire at any time liable to eruption upon the most inconsequential pretext and subjecting the negro at any moment to annihilation and the destruction of their segregated settlement at least Jn Chicago, and has produced in the press of Chicago, a wailing plea to the south to accept the return of the negro to its more favored surround ings. The northern advocacy of social equality; their rampant demands for negro rights and privileges, the prom ise of welcome to the pursuit of hap piness in northern climates, ] have proven to be a myth, a mere<«sound- ing brass and tinkling cymbal, and the northern negro, like Marius of old, now sits in sorrow and solitude amidst the ruins of shattered hopes and promises-an outcast amongst Eia new friends-aifd because of the virus of social eighty- implanted in his .breast by, abrtLehi propaganda, finds no from htg former friends of the south.
