Mr. HUNTER-The negro IL Tree, but at what
cost OF money, OF ife OF the social and moral ee-
mcnts or national strength and prosperity none
have yet undertaken to estimate. The lives tnat
were lost IN the war are estimated IN millions The
money expended, lost or wasted by IT would nave
paid Tor each man, woman and child among the
slaves at many times their market value. The con-
stttuuon has been torn into shreds aud tatters.

ments OF human happiness and government,

lures you now ind in that once great agency OF
human freedom and progress. How long vii! any

but by votes and pOliciesp 1t Will be found,

not whether any convention could be assembled
which would be civil enough to deal with these

SOLDIER TO AFRICANIZE

This ended my interview with Mr. Hunter, who

We Must Have Readjustmcnt.
From the Graphic,1

In time, however. We must have readjustment
OF the constitution. We practically put the consti-
tuition out OF sight during the war, and we nave
essentially modified 1t by the constitutional amend
ment s and the reconstruction legislation passed
since the war. 1t IS daily becoming palmer that
under the constitution AZ 1t now stands
the revival OF southern prosperity and the
transportation the relations OF the government to
corporations and other political problems of the
near future are impossible. We must have close
overhauling and readjustment of our national
machinery. Otherwise 1t Will fail to do Its work
properly, and we shall cease to make that progress
which has heretofore been our national boast.
And In the meantime the only security against
utter anarchy at the South Is the interpositlon Of
the armed hand OF the federal rule.
