The Negro Must be Educated.

The burden wbicn the white people of
the South have to bear to provide educa-
tional faculties for white and colorod
children is a heavy one. The time ma,
come. but it is a long way in the future,
when the negroes will have so improved
their condition that they~in help to bear
this burden. If the South We're as rich No
the North, the burden could be borne
much more easily than II IS. The south
however has been poor ever since the
war, and is only beginning to see the
dawn Of prosperity.
Here and there complaints are heard
that to provide ample school accommoda-
tions for all the colored children is toe
much to expect Of the white people, but
these complaints are soon silenced by the
thought that the education OF the colored
children is not only duty, hut is abso-
lutely necessary for sell protection.
II unnecessary to call attention 10 the
moral condition Of the negroes a. the pre-
sent time. Everybody knows what il Is
who has lived any length Of time nc the
South. The morals Of the women. as
rule, are worse than those OF the men.
The morals Of the negroes OF slave times
cannot be compared 70 the morals OF
those OF the present time. In slave
times both men and women, and
particularly the women, were sub

were brought under refining influences
then, such as they know nothing OF now.
The importance Of lifting the negroes 10

becomes apparent when IL is remembered
that the servants at the south are Re-
groos. and that negro girls and women
are the nurses OF the white children. and
have almost exclusive charge OF them
until they are ready 20 begin school. And
after the children pass out Of the hands OF
the nurses their close relations with the
negroes DO not cease, because the negroes

Now that the smoke and DUST OF the re-
cent political battles are disappearin q,
there is an opportunity afforded to again
consider the Senatorial outlook. The he
publicans have been trying to console
themselves for the overwhelming defeats
they sustained in the late elections by
boasting that they were sure Of being able
to retain control Of the Senate during the
whole of President Cleveland's admins
tration. They do not feel by any means
certain of this, but it is about the only
chance they have for Dragging now, and
they must utilize it, or else employ their
whole zine and talents in discussing their
recent disasters, and the ITO them mel
ancholy causes which led thereto.
To centrol the Senate the Democrats
must have 3S Senators-just one half
bat they have the Vice President, who has

'can now count pretty safely on Sc Sena-
tors. from March 4. 1887, inolud ing two TO
be elected in Virginia and Indiana. with
The chances in favor of gaining several
others. The debatable States will elect
Senators before that time, and which are
now represented by Republicans, are
California. Connecticut, Michigan, New
Jersey, New York, Wisconsin. and
probably Ohio. OF these seven States the
Democrats certainly ought to secure the
Senators from at least two, and
they would certainly do so were
it not for the fact that some OF
them have been shamelesslv gerryman-
dered by the Republicans. Notwithstand-
ing this fact, the Republicans cannot
count with a great degree Of certainty in
securing the next Senator from any one
of these States. There seems to be less
prospect for Republican unity next year
than there was this year. 1t is more
than probable that the Mugwumps will
now cease to claim to be Republicans
and be more independent than ever
They do not amount TO much. however.
While the outlook is very hopeful foI
the Democrats, it must be confessed thai
the Republicans occupy a strong position
in reference 10 the Senate. Were it moi
for the Generalization that exists among
them in consequence OF their recent de
feats their position in nearly all tn,

Thoughts for Taxpayers.

:
The people Of Georgia are now en-
( gagged in paying their taxes in every part
/ Of the State. These taxpayers may &c di-
/ vlded into three classes: First, those who
1 are strictly honest and conscientious
second, those who want 60 be honest and
conscientious, but who are tempted to
feel that they cannot afford to be so; and,
third, those who are net honest and who
think it is only smart trick TO give in
their proper at less than its value, and
thus swlndle the State and, at the same,
defraud those taxpayers who return their
property for taxation at something like
its true value.
The first class is completely Disguised,
as well as incensed, at the unfair burdens
that the law allows to be placed upon
them by the dishonesty OF the third class,
and the weakness of the second class,
which is doubtless by far larger than both
the others combined. When it is cOnsid-
cred that probably not one-fourth of the
taxable property in the State is given IN
at anything like a proper valuation, the
load that honest taxpayers have to bear
may be pretty closely estimated. 1t is
safe to say that they pay double the
amount of taxes that they should pay,
and that they would pay if there was an
effective and just system of assessment,
while the dishonest do not pay an average
Of one-half what they should pay.
The question naturally suggests itself,
What are the good citizens Of the State
going to do about it' Owing to the I'M
faitbmlness or the stupidity Of a majority
Of the General Assembly, no immediate
remedy is available. Wrongs Will have
to be submitted to this year, as well as
next, for there is no prospect that rem
edy will be provided before the winter Of
1856. and not much OF prospect that one
will be provided then.
1t is the privilege of the honest tax pay
ers TO "kick," but "kicking" alone will
do little good 1t behooves them to agitate
the question Of the equitable assessment
of taxes, to build up and strengthen pub.
lie sentiment on that subject, and to or
ganize and make it an issue in the select
ing OF members OF the next General As
samblY. II will be too late to talk about
this question when the legislators shall
have been selected without reference to
it.

fill every place where servant IS re-
quired. There is no occasion TO point out
the harm that ignorant and immoral SER
wants can do children, that is too well
understood. What the boys fail to pick
up from the servants at home they may
learn from negro children in the streets.
OF course there is no purpose to make
the negroes out worse than they are, and
it is not assumed that they are more I'M
moral or ignorant than some other races
would be under similar circumstances.
The negroes are capable OF great improve
ment. The only way they can be i'm
proved is by afording them religious and
educational advantages. What we want
to impress upon the public mind is that
the white people must bear the burden Of
improving them for self-protection, If for
no other reason.
