                <text>In reference to the November 1881 issue of The Campus, where the author stated that "the result of the war has not essentially altered the relations of the two races." The author disagrees with this point as the equivocation is superficial and ignorant, but supports it with evidence and analogies that are rooted in racism (i.e. he compares Black people to horses that were "owned" and now are "free").</text>

"Now, this great nation of ours is an Aryan republic; it was formed by an Aryan people; upon Aryan political principles have depended its growth and prosperity; towards it have turned for succor the oppressed from every nation of this race, but the limit should be drawn."&#13;
&#13;
"Rhetoricians call America an asylum. it is an asylum if you please, but an asylum for Aryans alone. Exclusiveness is the principle on which asylums are founded; and no philanthropist has ever attempted to found an asylum which should be at the same time a home for idiots, maniacs, and deaf-mutes."&#13;
&#13;
"It is not a question of how we can civilize, Christianize, or educate the Chinese. It is a question of policy, a question of their advantage to the American people."&#13;
&#13;
"I think even our most sentimental reformers can now see that race amalgamation was not easy in the South, where the two races had become familiarized by an acquaintance of over two hundred years."&#13;
&#13;
"To the few who come here for culture we will extend a welcome, but to the horde who come here to drain what they can from our resources and carry it back to China, who care not for our civilization, our arts, and sciences, our institutions, civil and religious, we say no; we have all we can take care of in our Mormons, our negroes, our poor and ignorant Aryan immigrants from Europe; you do not amalgamate with us readily if you can at all, and we refuse to burden ourselves with you."</text>
