DR.. ATrcUs G. HAYGooD, distinguished
Southern educator, declares that one of the
greatest needs Of the South is educated col
ored physicians. 1t is impossible, he says,
for the white physicians to give proper atten-
ton to the ills Of the colored people, and il
doctors Of their own color were educated to
treat the common diseases, to acquire which
knowledge an extended course in college
would not be necessary, the presence OF the
better informed white physician would be
only occasionally needed. Thousands of
colored people die annually from diseases that
could easily have been cured had they re-
ceived slight medical treatment, and thous-
ands Of others are suffering constant pain and
are incapable Of performing any labor who
could easily be restored to health.

THE Chicago bankers are finding fault
with the new postal notes, and have declined
to handle them on the ground of mistakes on
the part of Postmasters. 1t is quite likely the
action Of the banks is premature, and that
when the Postmasters become as familiar with
the notes as they are with postal orders there
will be but little ground for complaint. The
notes certainly are needed, and they should
have a thorough trial before being declared a
failure.
