they have unanimously come to the
conclusion that the prospects and
hopes of the public systems of educa-
tion at the South will receive serious,
If not fatal blow. from any legisla-
tion which should make such systems
OF education maintainable only on a
scheme Of mixed schools. AS to the
organization required for such public

duty, as well as the interests and feel.
ings OF the white and colored people

system OF education which should give
equal opportunities and equal advan-
tages to the children of either color,
that no suoh result would be promoted

sion, say these views are fully set forth

which is adopted and approved, as ex.
pressing the unanimous opinion of the
