Tho presence of large numbers of idle negroes in ou midst is a menace to the safety of our homes. A man hardly feels safe to leave his family alone at home when he goes to work iu the morning. Any time of day you can find groups of from five to a dozen big strong negroes loafing around on the streets. How these fellows live is a question past understanding. Beyond a few days' cotton picking and an odd job here and there, these mon never work.

Of course there ara exceptions to this, There aro colored men here who aro industrious and honest and are novor idle if they can help it. But theru is another clement that is just tho reverse of this. Some day wo will be startled by borne horribfe crime hero In our midst and then we will realize the extent of the ovil, yet it seems one past a remedy and it behooves us to be watchful and all skulkers at night should be summarily delt with.
