A NEGRO CO UN Condition of Many T Main Canses for I mmat,,mBmmammam**mam. ? BELTON, S. C., Sept. 18,1899. I j EDITORS INTELLIGENCER: Will you j allow me space in the columns of your paper for the following article ? The negro and his present condition V is one of the most prominent subjects of newspaper consideration. In fact, , y . there has been, and even now so much being said about him, until lhere is a sentiment created against him, so deeply saturated with a feeling of . biasness on the part of some of our white neighbors, as to make good and respectable colored people feel strange; ' even to feel that their lives are en dangered. \ To this there is no need of special '' reference, as a proof, for already there . linger in the minds of good white peo- j pie, as well as some not so good, the fact of things done to the negro to : warrant the assertion as being perfect ly reasonable. < With all these threatening forebod ings, men and women of intelligent minds have been moved to think and carefully investigate to learn the real cause of the moral sense and dignity bf the State, and yea, even of the County, being pi>t in a quiver. This commotion seems to be an outcome, in part, of the condition of the negro race as a mass, which condition is al most .wholly unsatisfactory to superior raees in refinement and civilization. This fact is too obvious for denial, and those of the negro race, who oan see and know this, out of a sense of jostle to all concerned, should admit it. However, iu my doing this, it is not my purpose to plead guilty to all the charges with which the negro is charged, nor to concede that all the indignities heaped upon the negro are just. It is, however, a matter cf deep regret to every true man that there is any reason for complaint. For my part, I hope to see things as they are and deal with them accordingly. In doing this, my race proclivities, es pecially those growing out of my . prejudices, will not be consulted. For it is fully-realized that' thc only hope left for my race is a firm stand for the right and an invincible and irresisti ble war against everything that tends to keep us down or works injury to the common good of the country. Many places have been mentioned as the place for thc first battle. But it is my opinion' that the first attack should be made on many of the negro homes. Many of them are going wrong, and it is from this source that the greater proportion of moral taint eome's, which encircles itself in the moral vein, and thereby tainting every tissue in the moral structure of the negro race. The deathly contents from this direction arc so large in volume and so very broad in their circulation ; as to very seriously affect the home s and lives of those whose motive and conduct are in high keeping with thc j most lofty ideas of right. The ap- j pearanee of snob, a menacing influence should stimulate the thinking men and women of the race to vigorous acci?n. The literal meaning of thc word home makes it a central factor in all that materially concerns man in this world, and will have much to do with him in the world to come. Tue existence of home is an ordering of Providence, in which providential act is'dcclared the recognition of man as an intelligent being, and as such is superior to all other animals. Therefore, thc prop erly arranged home is the biggest in stitution in the world. It is a monar chy in the moral, social and religious world, holding the reins of State, .Church, society and legislative bodies io its hands. When occasions demand it orders Legblatures and Parliaments . to convene to enact laws for its pro tection. It holds at its command the servants of this land, from President down to thc smallest district sheriff. * And to resist a foe who would dare to invade this sacred castle to harm, all may be summoned to enforce laws and uphold her sovereign right. There should be no surprise at thc words of the poet, "There is no place like home." Another great poet, as he sat in the quiet solitude contemplating the stormy trials of life, when upon his view burs ted thc glorious antici pation of a future resting place, and in all thc wide realm of words before his eyes none were so suitable to the ex pressing of his hope as these: "Jeru salem, my happy home: name ever dear to mc," &c. Some may say that States, Churches and society generally make home, but not so- Society, the State and the Church arc all offsprings of the home, and the character and general makeup of the home will de termine thc character and complexion of all. The same is true of races. This being true, the home should be thc pur est place on earth. Ita keeper should bo mothers and fathers, whose general make should bc unqestionablypure ned high. Thc moral atmosphere surround ing the home should bc free from any thing that would have any injurious ef fect upon the children of the home. For home influences mould character and SELS HIS RACE. sTegro Homes one of Cxisting Tronbles. shape habits and tone of life as noth ing else will or can And as the home, so will the men and women be coming out from these homes. Our words and actions are only seed sowers in the lives of our boys and girls. As we speak, so will our cbil dren speak. Sh uld we act dishonest ly, our children will do so, too. Should we be unfaithful to each other as men and wives, our sons and daughters will be unfaithful' to their companions when they go out in life. And let mc further remind you that the men and women who are to make up the negro race for the future will be just what our homes are now. For there is nothing surer than whatsoever the home soweth that also will the Church, the State, society and the future home of the negro race reap. I am a negro of the strictest sect, and I love that despised race, and for that reason I would say that there is a loose screw in too many of our homes. No one needs to visit them to know that. But judging from what may be seen at many of our public gatherings, it is safe to say that we have io our race some rough hnonies. There you ean see young negro men staggering over women in their whis key. There you oan see them stand ing over young women and mothers cursing. There you will see on the outside of their clothes pistols, as though they were going to wair. Do you not see some fellow a little dis tance away selling liquor? Can't you see them passing toaudfrom like bees to a hive? Some one is about full now. He comes up and raises a row. The cowardly wretch draws a pistol, and then see women running, carrying their children in their arms, scream ing as they go. All of this tells me that some homes arc going wrong. Well, some one may say "that white people do that, too. It is true that there are some tough cases in that race, and, in fact, all races have some chaff. But, brother, our number of ruffians is too large. And grant that some young-white men cut up. They have the money to employ lawyers, and, if convicted, can pay out, while the negro settles his in chains on some road or on some farm. The good peo ple will join me in denouncing any such, and, ray brethren, when thc home is made right, all is right, with a few exceptions, and except'oos nev er establish ?rulc. Some will say that it is treason to thc race for an attack of this kind to be made ou disorderly homes. If it is treason, brethren, make the best of it. For my part. I. have unsheathed my sword of truth to defend all that is true and right and to head to thc shoulders everything that tends to darken the moral horizon of my race, and as long as breath :s in my body I will never put it up until these ends arc met. Your brother for right and the race, H. WATKINS*. On the 10th of December, 1897, Kev. S. A. Donahoc, pastor M. E. Church. South, Pt- Pleasant, W.

Woods, of Darlington, who is quite an expert on the subject writes the following timely letter to thc News and Couria- about the pre vaihitg criminal waste of forest timber: Unless some plan can bc devised to check the great waste of what, if prop erly mauaged, is a great source of wealth, it will not be a great many years before our magnificent pine for ests will have disappeared, and there will be nuthiug to show f.?r their wan ton and mexcusanle destruction To those who oulj live for ihe pres ent, and take no thought for the fu ture, the above remark may seem a grossly exaggerated ouc, but a little re flection wih ea>il> deinuusu are ns truth 1 aud furthermore show the itu pei ai ive importance of devising souie ay-iem ati? plau by which the waste may t e checked, aud the laud already de prived of its timber restocked with trees that io the future will prove a great source of profit. As a matter of course the demand for lumber for the innumerable uses to which it ia put tuart be supplied, but this can be easily done wi'hout any real injury to our forests, provid ed that ouly the ripe or fully grown trees were used and a little intelligent care be giveu to the young trees ttiat would spring up iu the puces of the ones that were out down Unquestionably the most destructive agent to our forests has been the tur pentine distilleries, for, in additiou tu ruining the timber, they itnpoveiish the laud to such au extent as to very much retard the growth of the young trees that stand up io the open places Even when the trees are uot killed outright by tapping, they are in great er danger of being ruiued by tire, aud eveuif they escape destruction iu ibis way aud are converted i uto lumber, it is inferior iu every way, both in strength and durability, to t e lumber made from the uubuxed trees. The saw mill ia not really so injuri ous to the forests, as only the large trees are used, the main trouble with tuem being that so many pine forests have been deprived of their most val uable trees without any adequate com pensation tc thc owner of the land, beiug practically sold at about the cost of sawing., Auother great source of destruction is the babit of allowing tenants to de story pine forests in order that they may half cultivate thc land and nuke a hundred or two pounds of cottou. or three or four bushels of cora per acre, thc whole crop being worth a great deal less than the standing trees. Thc truth of the matter is that our timber resources were originally so great that they were regarded as inex haustiblo, and in accordance with this belief were valued in proportion, thou sands of acres of our finest timbered lands being sold for a mere fraction of their value and thar, too, in mauy cases, by p wo era who were not forced to sell and who ought to have known better than to have parted with their valuable possessions for a mere song. This inexcusable sacrifice has been ? notable especially in the case of swamp j lauds that have often sold at less price per acre than the value of ooo large cypress tree. Even at the present time timber syn dicates are buying up all of our avail able timber lands at a very low price, aud that, too. with an iron-clad ar rangement that puts the owner of the j land entirely at their mercy, the con- j tract beina; that the buyer has all thc time he wishes ?or the removal or the? trees, virtually giving him absolute j control of the land for as long a.pc rind as he chooses lo hold it. The presence of large forests ha? a considerable effect ou thc temperature, making it warmer in winter and cooler in summer than it would be were the forests destroyed. Thc northers that make thc climate of Texas so unpleas ant and the terrible blizzards that arc so prevalent on the treeless plains of the northwestern States are due almost entirely to the absence of timber; there being absolutely nothing to break the force of the wind. Were there no forests in South Carolina thc thermomcrter would show at least 20 or 25 degrees greater rango in thc tem perature; that is. from extreme heat to extreme cold. The kingdom of Saxony, with about one-third the area of South Carolina,, easily supports a population of nearly f>,000,000 people, and this, too, despite thc fact that two-fifths of the whole land area is reserved for forests. Tho forests, instead of being au expense, arc a source of considerable revenue, to say nothing of the good they ac complish in improving the climatic and atmospheric conditions of thc country. The same rule, with very little variation, prevails throughout thc whole of Germany. In Spain thc timber has been de stroyed, with no attempt to replace it; the consequence being that it formerly supported a much larger population than it does at thc present day. In Germany things aro not left to chapeo, but ull the State lands arc in eliRrge of expert foresters and the pro c. .>.. nf i ..planting the forests is e< n sr.>tII l\ fining on A un! her calamity that will occur from i lu* desirue.i?nii of our forests will bi* i h.-very - null volume of water that will flow in our streams during seasons of dry weather.

Selling abandoned lands for a mere pittance, in order to secure the taxes, has been a great mistake in this State. lt. would have been far better to have held them as timber preserves and have had a paid official to protect them from trespass. The writer hopes to be able, in a fu ture issue of thc News and Courier, to make some practicable suggestions in regard to the preservation of our forests; his present incention being to arouse the land owners to the impor tance of holding fast to thc timbered lands, and of turning a deaf ear to the blandishments of distillers and thc timber syndicates. - S E.

Jue Wheeler, who for a time jumped about the country tooting thc praise of McKinley's policy of imperial ism, has been snubbed in th?; Philip pines hyden. Otis and, according to cable advices from Hong Kong, he wishes to be ordered back home. It will bc remembered that Gen. Wheeler was very anxious to take the field in the Philippines, and finally his impor tuning resulted in the President in structing him to proceed to Manila and report to Major Gen. Otis. Tho press had much to say about the good work Gen. Wheeler would do when he took the held against the Filipinos. It was generally understood from the Wash ington dispatches that Wheeler would be given thc command of Funston's brigade and participate in thc active operations of Lawton and MacArthur as soon as thc dry season commenced. It appears, however, that upon his rr rival at Manila he met with a chilling reception. There was no field band at the landing place to hail his coming with martial music, but, on the con trary, Gen. Otis exhibited the marble heart and extended the. icy hand: in other words, he was, to use language of diplomacy, persona non grata to the entire military outfit at Manila and was treated as an interloper. Gen. Wheeler for weeks wanted to bc assigned to a command, and at last, growing impatient, ho called on Gen. Otis in order to ascertain "where he was at." He then learned that he had been billed for thc command of a little and lonely island of the archipelago, situated "far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife.'1 Wheeler protested against; being snuffed out in such a manner, but the man who shaves his chin and allows his hair to grow on the rest of the lawn remained firm. Wheeler then began to yearn for home and every fond spot that his infancy knew. He had been thrown down hard and his dreams of leading a dashing charge against the Filipinos were jolted out of him. Ann}- officers predicted that when Gen. Wheeler sailed for the Phil ippines that ho would not be given a show, for the reason that he would be in the way of the regular army men, and they would resent his coming to Manila. Gen. Wheeler-wasall right solong as he traveled from one city to another m akin g sp ecch es i n favor o f M e K i n ley's Phillippine policy and imperialism, bnt the moment lie sought a command in the Philippine army he began to bore the President. Thc desire, of Wheeler to distinguish himself made him per persistent, and finally thc President sent him to the Philippines, knowing full well that Gen. Otis would linda way to smother him. The treatment Geo. Wheeler hus received will arouse considerable indignation, because the country is well aware, of the fact that as a soldier he is the superior of Otis in every respect; and the (.-quai, if not the superior, of Lawton and MacArthur.
