THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C. f Talk's cheap, but when it’s backed up by —- hard cash of a cially re- sponsible firm, or company, of world-wide reputation for fiir and honorable dealing, i means business f Now, there are scores of sarsaparillas and other blood- purifiers, all cracked up to be the best, purest, most peculiar and wonderful, but bear in mind (for your own sake), there’s only one guar blood-purifier and remedy for torpid liver and all diseases that come from bad blood. That one—standing solitary . and alone—sold on ¢rial, is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med- ical Discovery. If it don’t do good in skin, scalp and scrofulous diseases —and pulmonary consumption is only lung-scrofula—just let its makers know and get your money back. Talk's cheap, but to back a poor medicine, or a common one, by selling it on ¢ria/, as “Golden Medical Discovery” is sold, would bankrupt the largest fortune.

Hie Address on the Situation and Demands of the Colored American. AN ELABORATE REVIEW OF THE PRESENT CON- DITION OF THE EMAXCIPATED PORTION OF OUR POPULATION—-WHAT THE XEOUO DOES NOT EXPECT AND WHAT RE HAS A RIGHT TO DEMAND. Hon. John M. Langston, delivered an ora- tion last night st the John Wesley A. M. E. Church on Connecticut avenue northwest on the subject: “The Demands of the Colored American.” His was the main feature of an entertainment devised to swell the fund of the church and drew a large crowd to the building. Rev. Dr. Rankin opened the exercises with prayer. Vocal music was well furnished by Miss Anita Joy and Mrs. Lulu Joy Brooks. Mr. | Geo. W. Stewart presided. | Mr. Langston began by calling attention to | the efforts of various persons to speak for j the colored man. The time has come, he as- serted, for him to speak for himself. Various phases of the colored question have been pre- sented for popular attention under many titles. snch ae “The New South,” “The Problem,” “The ace, Question,” N Exodus," “Colonization,” “Deportation, Por three years past the public prints b been burdened with discussious ou these lines and so much has been maid that it was import- ant, said the speaker, to advise folks first what the colored man does not ask before going on to show what iue does ask. SoM: POPULAR FALLACTES. He referred in doing so to certain popular fallacies. First, the negro does not concern him- self with the question of superiority. He is sim- | ply anxious to beable to do his duty asan Ameri- } can citizen in the full measure of his strength | and opportunity. Second, there is no justiticn- | tion in ny act of the race or in past history of the fear of negro supremacy. ‘The negro is always loyal and docile, content to follow in the footsteps of Washingtor., Jackson, Lincoln, G nd Sherman. ‘Third, the negro. jeaves to the Divine Power the question of whether the two races will eventually commingle. Fourth, colonization and kindred topics do not concern the negro as having any practical sig- nitication. Finding himself here, at home in the only country of witich as a citizen, he has knowledge, he has no inclination to go abroad, and does not think it to be in the hearts of his countrymen to force him to emigrate. Fifth, the negro has no demand to. make con- cerning the matter of so-called social equality. WHAT THE COLOKED MAN DOES EXPECT. ‘Then the speaker went on to talk about what the colored American does ask and expect. He said: “Our status in politics and law has been well detined, settled and fixed. We are not political nondeseripts, nor is our condition Wanting in legal detiaition and limits. Twenty eight years only have elapsed since the negro was set free. It may be said of him, however, his conduct as a slave or a free- jered he has won the confidence and respect of all loyai citizens of the govern- ment, and, unlike the Iudian and Mongolian, he hax been incorporated with his posterity to the latest generation into our body politic, made a citizen and an equal at the law. “This ix law so far as the colored Americaui is conce Why should it not be the fact as well in his case? “Hie demand and his necessity have this extent and no more. le demands in all sincerity and earnestness hat that which is written in the law be applied | and enforced in protection und defense of his rights. He needs and has good right to ask and expect to get, certainly in bis own coun- try, citizen as he is and voter, full protection in ‘all his legal rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, as well as entire proti tion in the posession and exercise especial of ail his political powers. ‘The ballot should be his shield of defense. LOYALTY OF THE COLORED MAY. From this line of thought the lecturer passed on to talk about the “loyalty anc vote of the colored American.” He said: “It is not to be denied that the loyal colored vote of the coun- try is of special imporiance and influence. Located as it is, concentrated in certain lead- the theory of Ameri a freely cast and fairly counted and re- ed, it settles the triumph of one of our national parties and the deieut of the other.” ‘Thea followed some statistics showing the col- ored population in the southern siates in 1890 was about 5,500,000, with a voting force of 1,000,000, while the whites number 9,000,000. foree and violence necessary to the votes in these states is very great and apparent ns the facts show, and any methods of fraud, intimidation and manipulation ealentated to defeat it, when cast, must be well planned and executed with general unanitnity of purpose and vigor by those in authority and those who support tuem. HOW TO MEET THE PRESENT CONDITION. “Several ways suggest themselves to meet this condition. The perpetrators of crime and wrong of all description must be subject to firm and vigorous enforcement of the law. If need be, let « great national fund be raised upon in- dividual, voluntary contribution, committed to responsible and reliable parties, to be cautiously and judiciously expended in the institution of causes against such offenders. Where addi- needed let it be enacted. At this time we are in need of two national enactments, one pro- viding safeguards agaiust the violation of a free ballot and the other for our safety and pro- | tection anywhere, within any state even which fails to furnish ‘such protection against per- sonal violence, a# certamly belongs, under any circumstances, to an American citizen. APPEAL TO THE COURTS. “Henceforth our appeal should be made to the courts, and while we should tax ourselves to institute and maintain our causes there, we the country in such regard.’ “Next to proceedings in the courts, the edu- ‘ll classes of the people of ‘the south portant and indispensable, as a means of enlightening the public mind, changing old and hateful feelings. between ‘the races, and establishing good understanding and kindly feeling among them. “Lastly and of first importance is the practi- eal and cordial recogmition of our character and claims us American citizens. ‘The fact of our citizenship, its cordial recognition by our countrymen, is the first, the most important means of our permanent elevation in the country, and our peaceful, useful and happy life among the people. ASK ONLY WHAT 18 JUST AND RIGHT. Mr. Langston’s closing remarks were about as follows: “And now, finally. resting our cause upon its intrinsic justice, sustained as it is by every consideration of exalted humanity, by every fact and principle of lawaccepted by the leading scholars, jurists and statesmen of our own country and the world, and protesting that ‘we entertain no feeling of hatred or hostility toward any class of our countrymen, not even toward those who were formerly our owners, and who are ly ible for the out- rages and atrocities that have been perpetrated ‘against us in the south since our emancipation, we ask only, as American citizens, to be per- mitted to live in peace and good neighborhood with our fellow citizeus of every class and con- dition, under the constitution and the laws, in the country where we were born, where it may be said that our ancestors sleep in the graves of slaves, serving such country and its govern- ment in common with its other inhabitants, " opportunity and our ability may allow, in suc!

The body of Lawrence Barrett was interred in the family lot at Cohasset, Mass., yesterday, beside the remains of his father and mother. ‘The body was taken by the undertaker from the receiving tomb to St. Anthony's Church early in the morning and placed on « pédestal before the chancel rail, where it was com- pletely surrounded by the many floral emblems which had been sent from Boston by friends.

They were driven in carriages to the church, where simple but impressive services were heid. Following the requiem mass the St, Cocilis martet of Boston chanted Mozart's Missa Brevis, a mass that has not been sung in New | England before for twenty-five years. This concluded the services in the church and the body was then placed in the hearse and followed to the cemetery by the family and friends in carriages.
