Richard Carroll not to be Bulldozed?He says it is True that his Life was Threatened, but not in the Convention?Rev. Durham Elected Educational Secretary?Sensible Speeches Made by Dr. Brockenton and Rev. hemp, ot Charleston. Union, May b. ?Special: "The negro must he lifted up morally, intellectually and spiritually, and it must he the work of the negroes themselves," was the declaration made hy the negro Baptists this morning, presided over hy the Rev. I. 1*. Brockenton. The Rev. .T. J. Durham, who is considered one of the most aggressive ministers of the State, was elected educational secretary for the State and will at once enter upon his work. The effort will he to take the young negroes from the street and put^hem to work, put them in school. "We cannot afford to tolerate idleness among us any longer." said the Rev. Dr. Brockenton, "and we must do our part of it. Our white friends have been trying to encourage us, and now we must show to them that we appreciate their kindness and what they are doing for us as a race. Every negro can he something in this country if lie makes up his mind to do so. Lot us now turn our attention to the work of lifting , up our own race." "We have hcen grossly misrepre scnted," said Kev. (J. \V. Raiford, holding a copy of a newspaper in his hand. "Here it is stated in this paper that some one threatened the life of the Kev. Richard Carroll." "It is a lie direct from hell," shouted one of the delegates. "That is a little too coarse for a minister," said l)r. Raiford. "hut to save me 1 do not understand why one of the papers of this State should , misrepresent the negro in this way. It is these things which make it against us. Of course we have had a lively discussion in our conven- j tion like other conventions. We are not all perfect and it should not be expected, for the white man is not perfect yet, although he has been at it for thousands of years." The Rev. Carroll contended that his life had been threatened, but not in the convention. He declared that he was told by one Rev, J. W. Fost and C. P. T. White that if he came to the convention and said what he said in the paper his life would not be worth a cent. "lam here and I am here to live." said Dr. Carroll, "and I am going to do my duty for (iod and the race." The Rev. R. Kemp, of Charleston, delivered an address on the future of the negro. He declared that there was a bright future for his race in this country, and the negroes of South Carolina were taking advantage of the many oppor tunnies tor advancement. We are investing our money, making friends and educating our children," and this is all that can he expected of any race. We arc inspiring the negro to think."?Correspondence to the News and Courier.
