Page 2 "THE OLD GRAY I It ?AND? i |THE NEW RIDER"!; J By r ;; $ REV. E. PHILLIP ELLIS * J ALLEN'S OFFICIAL OPENING One of the largest crowds that we havri ever witnessed attended r-the official opening of Allen university at Columbia last week. It had the appearance of a commence ment exercise. The Kt. Rev. J. S. Flipper, D.D., senior bishop or the A^l.E. denomination and chieipastor of the State of TJJputh Carolina took over the ail airs 01 this state in such a way as to '.* . prove a master mechanic hau charge of the situation. Now, 1.1 is just as impossible for one bishop to lollow another's administration to the letter as it is to tw es. ' That's true with general 01tieers, presiding elders and pastors. And every person that ipoaiifies to be out of an insane.asy 1?hrm?wfti?agree?with?this?statw ment. As usual Bishop Flippei delivered a masterly address 01. convenin'g 'the trustee board. Hi: speech struck a responsive chori. 'on the part ot Dom miiusieis on lay members. In his appointmen of the finance committee some why had served on it for years wen left otf.. But none of them mam fested any displeasure whatevei knowing that its the privilege o every bishop to have his own se up. He followed the law of th old charter relative to the execu tive board. This law provides tha nine persons including the seen f tary of the trustee board consti tute such a board. This of c.purs displaced that board of 21 per sons of which the writer was a-' member. But even in this case th bishop's wish is our pleasure. Go: forbid that we shall ever write o speak a word against our bishop They will ever have my fulles cooperation. It is true one or two. who would be mischief makers in dicated that they had scored it this administration by doing a way with the rest of Us. But w cannot see it. And so long aBishop Flipper continues as he ha started none of us need fear. Foi any man can have an audienct with him and state the facts in his own case. Now so far as thi handling of moneys by the finana . committee that is as it should be It protects the president of t'hi university, the bishop of diocese" the trustee board and every member of the A. M. E. church. This writer believes that the oh " Palmetto State is perfectly saft under the leadership of Bishop J. S. Flipper. a Confused situation When it comes to the conditio) of this country today I doubt seri ously if anybody knows which i the best, policy to' pursue. The more the remedies and kuggestions are agitated the more com plicated they seem to be. The solution, for the problem of this ag?. seems to be still an unknown quantity. Many leaders of de nominations including- bishops ai urging voters to support the Democrat Party on the other hand an< equal number in the same rani ' are advocating the suffrage th? Republican Party. God only knows from what source help will oom< 10 a aepiesbeu jjirujjn;. 11, otum to one viewing from a far anglethaat this country is so heavily involved untjl a changed admini'stra tion will be but little, benefit tpOor people. Things are quite dis couraging in every respect. I seenis that wars of the worst kirn are just over the hill. Farmer; are still left in the shadows of the night. Hundreds of thous and citizens are without employment. Any number of profes sional folk have nothing to do Taxes running into the million; are still unpaid. It's a question as to whether these political advisor white or colored are interested i> the welfare of the race white o* black. Doubtless many of then are concerned most in the sum paid them personally from the parties they represented. A relief will have to come from some source if governments are to car ' ry on. With no intention what ever of sounding a pesimistic nott but ours is a tense situation ofl which apparently the worst k- yet | to come. That we should look up I _ ?to the hills from Achcncc cometir; all of our help is the sane advice] that individuals and nations should] accept in such a time as this. J, BISHOP FLIPPER AT ST.

Should all the weight of life be ' laid Across' our shoulders at just one place, And the future, ripe with woe and struggle, Meet us face to face: * We could not go: Our feet would stop and so God lays a little on us every day And never, I believe, in all life's way, Our pathways lie so steep, Our pathways lie s osteep, But we can go, if, by God's power We only bear the burden of the hour.
