If negro children are forced into the
pulic schools of Kentucky, popular edu-
cation will be retarded. Yet Radicalism,
with all its wailings over the common
schools, is secretly determined that TIE
negro children shall be forced into the
white schools. This it has not the hon
esty to openly avow but this is its pur-
pose and its organs will not say that they
are, except fer the time being, opposed
to such social amalgamation.
They will 60 so far as to say that at
present it would be best to have negro
schools supported by white people, but
if Kentucky could be radicalized, they
would regard equality in political rights
and separate State schools as an anomaly
