These figures indicate a pretty steady
comparative decrease of the negroes. If
these figures are correct, and there is
every reason to think that they are, there
is no reason for the alarm that Judge
Tourgee. Mr.. Gable, Prof. Gillian and
writers of that class appear to be anxious
10 excite.
Inievery Southern town in which death
statistics are kept the record shows that
the death rate among the negroes is very
nearly twice as great as that Of the
whites. The births may be greater
among the negroes, but they are not
sufficiently greater to compensate for the
difference in the death rate.
There does not appear to be any reason,
therefore, as Mr.. Gannett says, to take
steps now to prevent any parts Of the
country from passing under the control
of the negroes. The danger of African
cation will have to be much more APP
parent than it is before public sentiment
Will favor a movement of that kind
The negro problem is a difficult one to
solve, but there is a very strong belief
among the Southern people that in good
time they will solve it. They have already
overcome some Of its difficulties, and
their success thus far encourages them to
believe that they are pretty certain TO
triumph finally. They will meet each
difficulty as it arises, and will not make
difficulties by undertaking to provide
against condition OF affairs that may
never have an existence.

Phases ofthe Negro Ques.ion.


Within the last year or two the negro
question in some phase or other has been
pretty constantly before the paNhc.
Judge Tourgee discussed 1t at great
length in a work entitled "An Appeal 90
Cesar" He undertook to show that il
was only a matter Of time when portion
Of the South would be under the absolute
control Of the negroes, and that there
would be n race war unless measures
were at once taken to guard against it. II
+ is unnecessary TO 90 into details 70 point
out what measures Judge Tourgee ad-
vised.
Mr.. George W. Gable took up the ques-
ton and discussed it from a different
standpoint. HIS position was that the ne
groes were entitled to greater privileges
than were accorded them, and limited
pretty strongly that if these privileges
were not granted the time would come
when they would take them. Speaking
as a Southern man, be said that the sentj-
ment OF the better element in the south
was in favor OF a much less rigid mainte-
nance Of the color line. tie was, Of
course, mistaken.
Later, Prof Gillian. in. couple of
magazine articles, undertook 70 prove
that the negroes were increasing faster
than the whites, and that il was possible
70 figure ont the time when the negroes. by
reason Of their number would be in
position to control the country, or at least
the Southern portion Of it. For instance,
he said that a century hence the popula-
ton OF tde United States would be about
as follows: Northern whites, 30 900, 900;
Southern whites, 90, 100000; Southern
blacks, 100, 100000. He gave no figures
for the Northern blacks. He took it for
granted, perhaps, that the negroes Of the
North would eventually ind homes in the
south.
OF course Prof Gillian gave figures to
support the conclusions at which he
arrived. He said that from 1870 to 1850
the negroes increased "a per cent. and the
whites only 90 per cent, and that fully 9
per cent. Of the white increase was due to
foreign immigration.
Mr.. Henry Gannett, in the June num-
Der OF the Popular Science Monthly. shows
pretty conclusively that Prof. Gillian
reached an erroneous conclusion, because
his data was not reliable. II has been
admitted by all. who have had occasion to
use the census of 1870 that that census, so
far as the South is concerned, is incorrect,
and yet it is that census that furnished
Prof. Gillian with the figures that We're
the basis Of his calculations.
Mr.. Gannett points out Professor Gill
lam's mistake, and makes it pretty clear
that from 1870 to 1880 the ratio of iu-
crease for the negroes was only % per
cent, wlale for the whites it was 81 per
cent.
A much better way, Mr.. Gannett thinks,
to arrive at the comparative increase of
the whites is to show what the percentage
Of each race Of the whole population was
az each decade since 1880. He quotes on
this point the following table from ScriJ-
ner'S Statistical atlas:

the old rat therein. He rushed To the trap,

The old rat saw him coming, and, putting

from the trap. Then ne looked for the little

The Philadelphia Press, speaking of
Mr.. Randalps interview in which he stated
that he was in favor of tariff reform, says:
"Mr Randall's recent manifesto has at
tracted the attention which 1t unques-
tionahly deserved from Democratic papers
OF all shades Of opinion. The commenta-
tors differ so widely in their lnterpreta-
ton OF Mr.. Randal's remarks. that we re-
gret the author OF all this dimly revealed
wisdom did not think proper to indicate
his real meaning more clearly than he has
done" II certainly IS to be regretted
that SIR. Randalrs statement LETT room
for doubt as TO his present position with
respect to the tariff. 1t is fair to assume,
however, that in stating that he now IA
vored a reform Of the tariff he meana TO
place himself in harmony with his party.
lie will have TO be put on probation, doubt
less, long enough to prove that his con-
version is thorough. His conversion did
not occur quite soon enough to admit Of
his election to the speakership.

NIr. CIews and the Georgia Bonds

mr. ClcWS ana the Georgia Bonds.
The attempt of Mr.. Henry Clews to dis
credit Georgia's new bonds is in keeping
with. his conduct with respect 70 the
bonds of this State years ago. II the
representatives Of this State put the
issue which Mr.. Clews has raised before
the Attorney General Of New York in its
proper light Mr.. Clews' spite work will
not amount 70 much.
Georgia has never rcpudiated q dollar
Of her legal obligations. All the bonds
authorized by the yenal and irresponsible
Legislatures Of the carpet-bag era are
now among tho recognized obligations OF
the state. except those where the laws un-
der which they were issued were not COM
piled With, and the people are now paying
taxes To meet the interest on them with
ont a murmur.
The bonds which Georgia refuses 10
recognize were issued illegally. and put
upon the market IN dcfNnco Of the law.
They were sold and the proceeds divided
among the carpet.baggers who held the
State in their clutches, and who
held high carnival at Atlanta. Mr.. CLOVIS
and every other man who could read had
fair warning that the government OF tic
state was In the hands OF alien whites
and ignorant blacks, and IL would bo
well TO look into an crcdis
asked for in the name OF Georgia.
Those who negotiated the bogus bonds

suffered justly.
