It is all right for colored men to do the work South, but they must have a white overseer. At the barber shops in Topeka they shave both white and colored, but let a colored man shave a black man in Savannah, and he will have no white customers. If a white man and a colored man walk the streets of Savannah together, the colored man must go behind, like a dog, not walk by the white man’s side. It was a long time before I learned why even my deacons would always walk behind me. That was their training. I said: “Walk by my side, you are my brother.” My daughter walked the streets of Savannah with a colored lady by her side. A white lady said to her, “You cannot be respected; you should have the colored girl walk behind you.” In Topeka colored men and white walk side by side. Even the Governor of the State does not hesitate to walk this way with a colored man. I attended an election yesterday in Topeka. Politicians were anxious for colored votes. So they are in the South sometimes, but I observed the different way they have of treating a colored man in Topeka from the one they practice in Savannah. The politician says: “Mr. So-and-So,” but in Savannah it is, “Jim, Jack, boy, come, give me a vote.” I never heard a Southern white man “Mr.” a colored man. I wrote several articles for the _Savannah News_ and called the colored girls Misses, and applied Mr. to colored men. In every case they struck out Miss or Mr., as applied to colored persons. I was told by a prominent man in Savannah that any man who would sit at the table with a colored man ought to be driven out of the city. A colored man cannot sue a white man in Savannah and collect a debt; but in Kansas he is equal before the law. A negro entered the Presbyterian church in Savannah when Ralph Wells, of New York, was lecturing on Sabbath-schools, and was called upon to pray, at which the black sexton said to me, “The millennium must be here, a colored man prayed in the Presbyterian church! I never heard of such a thing before in my life.”
