Excerpt from "The Negro Problem" As Seen and Discussed by Southern White Men in Conference, at Montgomery, Alabama: With Criticisms by the Northern Press
On the 8th of March, 1900, the Rev. Edgar Gardner Murphy of Montgomery, Ala., by invitation of several civic organizations. Delivered a masterful and, from several viewpoints wonderful oration, at Philadelphia, Pa., taking for his subject: The White Man and the Negro in the South.
In 'his letter of acceptance he gave notice that he would deal with the approaching Conference on Race Problems, to be held at Montgomery.
He was obviously the advance agent of the conference and was sent to prepare the Northern mind for the reception of the very extraordinary policy to be advocated by its members. It may be said that he shaped the course of the Conference. The circuitous route, the pleasing generalities, the self-assumed re sponsibility for declarations made, the multitudinous phases and the inimitable divisions and subdivisions under which he discussed his subject, with distinctions Without differences, stamped him as an artist of no mean order, and ought to entitled him to an enviable page in the history of human events.
No general ever maneuvered an army more adroitly or with such consummate skill as he did his subject. He went to beard the lion in his den. He knew every foot of territory; that the ground on which he was to deliver his speech was dedicated to liberty more than a century ago in every sense applicable ito the term; that the fire of universal freedom which kindled in the hearts of William Penn and his colony, the force which impelled Adams to face a hostile Congress and bade defiance to its statute of expulsion, was still alive though smouldering.
