National Ala To Education.

i do not mention this relative
amount of taxes paid by white and
colored people by way of complaint
of them; for considering that they
had been for centuries race OF
slaves, that they had never known
freedom and its responsibilities, l
think their progress, considering
their education, has been credit to
them. The first clear money is the
hardest money made by even an edu-
Gated man. Getting start is the
trouble; once started, progress IS
easy. But when the Government
turned these people loose to make .
living for and take care of them
selves, without education, without
business training, without property,
and almost without even clothes,
when daily bread had to come from
daily labor, they OF course could not
overcome all these obstacles and pro-
gress as rapidly as Anglo Saxons
would have done under like circum-
stances. When you consider what
had to be done their progress has
been creditable. They are keenly
alive to the benefits of education; !;
and while the old men never hope TO
do more than read chapter in the
Bible perhaps, they do hope their
children may be educated, but with
the best efforts of our people and
their own best efforts but little can
be done without aid from the Gov
ernment.
/ believe we should be careful of
excessive appropriations. No more
money ought to be supplied by the
Government than can be assimilated
in additioo to what can be raised by
the people themselves by reasonable
taxes, but that much ought to be APP
propriated until the schools have
gained strength and the system is
firmly rooted and vigorous.
believe that slavery is but half
abolished, emancipation is but half
completed, while MILLIONS of frcemen
with votes in their hands are left
without education;' and an enlight-
ened policy on the part of the Gov
eminent of the United States toward
the States in this emergency will,
am sure, be productive of immeasur-
able benefit. That one day of such
will produce a thousand years of
reaping. Hon. j. X. Jones.

David Harkey, the subject of this

N, c.. on the Goth day of June, 1897,
and died at Palmer, Texas, on the 10th
tay Of June, 1884. He moved from
North Carolina in December, 1889 and
settled within Is miles of the present
flonrishing town of Russellville, Ark,
then wild prairie waste, with only
one or two families living within its
now corporate limits. He was at the
time of his death 81 years of age, less

that to Miss S. Il. Shinn. who proceed
ed him to the grave In 1859, and by this
union was blessed with Is children, 7
boys and ii girls, IL ofwhom By kind
Providence he was permitted to raise
and see grown. One of his daughters
died about the age of years. He
had l2l grandchildren, 90 of whom are
now living, % being dead. He had SO
great grandchildren, GS of whom are
living and Is deceased. He was an ex-
emplary and Jealous member of the
Lutheran church for many years, and
remained therein until about his S0th
year when in consequence of there be-
ing no church of his denomination suf-
ficiently near him in his new
home, with no probability then for one
in the near future, and regarding 1t as
an indispensable duty devolying upon
him TO attach himself to some organiz-
