A SOUTHERN JUDICIAL FARCE. Many travesties on justice have been enacted in the South. Red handed murderers have been allowed bail.

Small rewards have been offered for apprehensions of murderers incases where their victims were Colored. In manv instances the hell bounds of the South have shot down inoffensive Colored men, in the presence of numerous without any attempt being made to bring the murderers to justice. Last week the greatest judicial farce ever enacted in the South occurred in South Carolina, where the spectacle of a coroner holding an inquest over a man he himself murdered was presented. Coroner S. T.

Burch of Florence County shot and kill a Colored man whom he alleges he had caught stealing potatoes from his yard. After the murder Burch came to town and gave himself up to the Sheriff. He was released on a writ of habeas corpus and gave bond for 00. He then impaneled a jury and presided at the inquest which was held over the body of his victim. It is unnecessary to add that the jury returned a verdict of justifiable homicide.

This is what the South calls justice. IMMIGRATION AGENTS DRIVEN OUT, "Raleigh, N. Jan. 31The people, it seems, in some secfions are greatly incensed against the agents who are so rapidly taking the Colored people away. Yesterday at Newburne a number of citizens who were annoyed by the meddling of the agents with laborers and the disturbance they caused by making great promises to the Colored people, and then failing to fulfiill them, causing general restlessness among them, determined to stop the work of the agents.

The agents were calmly advised not to try to take any Colored people from Cravan County. They left at once, but last night appeared at a station in the same county. As soon as the Newburne people heard of this they procured a train, went there and drove the agents away, assuring them of severe treatment if they returned." It seems a great pity that the North Carolina folks can't get bold of old -whang-doodle Butler and hit him about nine and thhty. So long as these people send such old idiots and cut-throats as Butler to talk for them in Washingion they ought not to kill his speeches its they are doing. The constitution of the United States is a wonderful instrument, if we accept all the theories of interpretation to which it gives rise.

According to these theories, a citizen of Indiana can be maltreated in the most shameful manner in Mississippi, and his only hope of redress lies in an appeal to the very villains who commit the outrage. The congress of the United States is according to these high authorities, grossly violating the constitution, in simply reading for information a documentary report concerning the outrage. Another most flagrant and enormous violation of this remarkable instrument was committed by speaker Reed in deciding that the Democratic rioters who had organized themselves into a mob to obstruct busi ness in the House of Representatives jmd. thereby preyent an investigation of the title to seats of the men who claimed those virtue of frauds, outrages and murder. The real good sense of speaker Reed blew the atrocious plot "sky-high" and the baffled conspirators howled like demons over the "violation of the constitution of the United States." Speaker Reed knocked the socks off from them so completely that they became disgusted at their own idiocy.

To be a laughing-stock to the world is not an enjoyable position. In his great speech, Mr Ingalls claims that the world is indebted to his "conquering and unconquerable race," for religion, literature and civilization. He modestly refrains from giving the said race credit for the demijohn and smallpox, although its claims are equally valid and its marvellous conquests have usually been effected through the agency of these instrumentalities. The Indians of North America were conquered and destroyed chiefly through the use of these agencies, and religion and civilization are constantly being carried into Africa by ships which convey two missionaries and two thousand hogshead of rum. The Mongolian seems anxious to emulate this shrewd policy by conferring the blessings of the leprosy upon the "conquering and unconquerable race," and the Chinese orators will have a basis for a grand rhetorical display in due course of time if the policy proves successful.

"We can afford to have lawless whites than lawless blacks and when the 'Solid South' settles down to business she will deal with these classes without fear or Constitution. Isn't it about time for the "Solid South" to settle down to business? Why wait longer? The Colored people of Bessemer, have "resolved" that they are in favor of Senator Butler's deportation scheme and hope the bill will pass Congress. The race can well be rid of peisons who are foolish enough to wish to emigrate to Africa. Let them go by all means. The British syndicates after gobbling up all the breweries, grain elevators and flour mills they can lay Hands on for fear of any weakening on their part, are now after the starch works, to stiffen up with.

These Britishers seem to be well supplied with millions. The North Dakotians evidently do not believe in allowing the "man and brother" to monopolize all the privileges and emoluments which are said to be derived from 4-11-44, and on which it is claimed, he has a preemption Miss Nellie Bly who recently made a flying trip around the world paying her own expenses, has begun to go around again as a lecturer, telling how she did it. This time the public will pay the expenses. The schedule of the Western Association Clubs has been made up and published, the cranks can now enjoy themselves conning over the same until the season opens. The politicians of St.

Paul are kindling the fire under the political caldron preparatory for the local spring campaign. THIS RACE PROBLEM. (CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE) violator of it at the South was sent to Congress. Here Mr. Morris facetiously added it might be that down there they thought being sent to Congress was a worse punishment than being sent to jail.

He suggested as a remedy for evils that the federal elections be placed under charge of the government. The final remedy is to be found in the creation of a healthy public sentiment. Prejudice is born of ignorance, and the white man of the South has need of education as well as the Negro. The educated man never reproaches a man for bis birth or color. He advocated mixed schools, because, as lie declared, seperate schools meant the teaching of infeiiority and the early instilling of feelings of aversion in the minds of the whites for the blacks.

He thought, too, that the whites of the North should teach by example as well as by precept, lest some Nathan should rise up presently while the North is condemning the South sa3s: "Thou art the man." Let the North accord the Negro rights which it insists the whites of the South shall give him. The Afro-American's time will come when he ceases to be a t-live to political parties and when he is willing that others shall be entitled to the same latitude as he in the enjoyment and expression of his views.

On the plantation of Hillory Bouknight, in Edgefield County, there lives a Colored man who is puzzling all the people in that section. Every night, about half an hour after he goes to bed, he enters in to what appears to be a trance and preaches a sermon. He is quite illiter ate, but, without a book and with his eyes closed he takes a text, which, by reference to the Bible, is found to be correct in chapter, verse and wording. When in this state he is entirely oblivious of any or everything that may be going on around him, and a physician who has examined him says his arm could be taken off when these spells are on him and he would not know it.

All books are not good ones but some are. One of the best books we have seen lately to give one information about people is one entitled men and Women of the Day." It is a review afterward in the basement. with sketches and reminiscences. It contains a fine portrait of each person of whom a sketch is given and there are 350 of them. It also contains the lives and services of all the presidential candidates of the last campaign with the platform and history of each party, the whole occupying 575 pages.

It is handsomely bound in several styles and will be a valuable ornament to any parlor or library. The sale of the book in St. Paul is entirely in the hands of Mr. Booker Smith an it is only sold by subscription. Mr.

Gone to Rest. On Friday of last week Mr. Robert Banks one of the oldest and most highly respected citizens passed away in his 83d year.

He was a remarkable man in many particulars, but was noted most for his memory of historical events. His funeral took place at St. James A. M. E.

chhrch Sunday afternoon conducted by Rev. L. C. Sheafe, of Pilgrim Baptist church Rev. S.

G. Smith, of the Peoples church and J. M. Henderson. The church was filled with the friends of the deceased and the occasion was asolemn one.

T. Gray of Minneapolis J. K. Hilyard, Allen French and T. H.

Lyles of St. Paul. His daughter, Miss Nellie, a school teacher in Kansas City, was with him in the hour of death. Father Harrison's Letter. Prompted by your interview, Mr.

Editor, as published by Pioneer Press, I am led to say that I am of opiniob that justice will hereafter be accorded to the Colored people at the Harris Theatre. In conversation with Mr. figan, he informed me that he would do all that lies in his power to bring about that result. But Mr. Egan with a view to at least raise a difficulty, if not to justify what had made his interview possible, asks a question which I propose to answer.

Mr. Egan's question is this: "Why do the Colored people not attend the Cathedral instead of having a church for their own exclusive use?" Because they do not care to do so. Once for all, let it be said that the Colored people are welcome to attend the Cathedral service whenever they see fit to do so. These are the words of Archbishop Ireland ana they contain a sentiment in which the present Rector of the Cathedral, Rev. P.

Heffron D.D., heartily concurs. In the second place, the St. Peter Claver Church is not intended for the exclusive use of the Colored people. The St. Peter Claver church is a catholic church where instruction is given chiefly with a view to those who have not had the benefit of Catholic training.

And as few of our Colored friends in St. Paul have enjoyed the benefits of Catholic education they find the instructions given in St. Peter Claver's Church more conformable to their state of mind than at the Cathedral. Nevertheless when any member becomes dissatisfied with the St. Peter Claver Church as a house of worship, he is tree to pay $65,00 per year and rent the very best vacant pew in the Cathedral.

Nor is it at all strange to find the Colored people chiefly gathered in one church for divine worship since there is no auditorium in the city capable of holding all Catholics and if Catholics must divide, certainly tbe natural division is most acceptable to all. Within the shadow of St. Paul's Cathedral, we find a Catholic church for German-Ameiicans, a Catholic church for Catholic church fer Bohemian-Americans and why not another Catholic church for Afro-Americans. This dibtinction made between the different churches is purely a matter of in-door-convenience, and is always subject to that higher law of Christian chanty which prompts us both undividuilly and collectively in spite of nationality, to be true to our Catholic principles and treat all men alike regardless of color.

Here is what the Memphis Appeal says of Agnes Herndon, who will be seen next week in her new play at the Bijou. "There was an enthusiastic audience at the Tremont Opera House last night to witness the presentation of 'La Belle Marie' by Miss Agnes Herndon and company. Her impersonations are displayed with great force. In her climaxes she is graceful and impassioned, convincing and forcible. In the correct portrayal of such a character as Belle Marib' she is aided very mateiially by a handsome face and beautiful form, while she is mistress of the art of portrayal of the emotions which agitate the bosom of a wronged woman." The following notice from the Zion Baptist church was handed in for publication.

It is funny how some people like to meddle with other peoples business, especially some ministers who say they are christians. They forget who professed to knowt hem in the pardon ol their sins, "Let your light shine before men that they may see your good woiks and glorify your father which is in heaven." In regards to our brother F. Lomack, we called a council and had him ordained and published it, but did not publish that L. C. Sheafe of ot.

Paul pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church, and J. W. Dunjee of Minneapolis pastor of Bethesda Baptist church had anything to do with it. For neither of them had a letter of invitation, or a letter inviting them to set with us in council.Zion Baptist Church. The St.

Peters church speaks for itself as progress and prosperity are at this time features in its circles. Rev. Williamson has been working very hard to be enabled to raise $1,600 by the 29th of March, which has called him right out into the field to solicit. In this he has shown himself capable, and has raised a neat sum of money within the last week. He has also seveial plans by which if successful, will net him several hundred dollars among which is a very probable one of success.

The noted jubilee singer Miss Nellie Scott Tipton is in the city and has agreed to take charge of a chorus of jubilee singers and assist in raising the heayy debt off the church, lhere is sufficient talent in Minneapolis in this line, to not only lift the debt irom the church, bv giving concerns, etc but to recompense the participants Jucatively. They intend going into many white churches of the city and thoroughly melt the hearts of the saints and sinners with their harmonious jubilee music. Who can resist the temptation of hearing the renowned jubilee singer Miss Nellie Scott Tipton, tne nightingale singer Mrs. Gertie Anderson, our favorite accomplished soprano Mrs. Win.

M. Smith, with the efficient talent of Mrs. R. J. Coleman as pianist.

Other talent of golden worth will appear in the refind chorus of jubilee singers. Why should we object to singing those songs composed by us? The music of which is peculiar to our people and for harmony and melody the world is at a loss to compete with. As the Scotch takes great delight in singing their own pecu iar music, the Germans theirs, the Irish theirs, should not we ours? which is given up by every one to produce more pine lody and harmony than any other.
