AFTER jumping on Fort Worth about that
city's tax assessments, the Austin Statesman
can probably form tolerably accurate idea of
howthe man felt who ran up against buzz saw
Il Houston Post.
Neither Austin, Houston nor Fort
Worth are assessed at 70 per cent. of
their actual value; we doubt If they are
assessed at so per cent. and it is not i'm
possible that they may go below so per
cent. All Texas, in fact, needs state
board of equalization.

THE electric street car is being thor
oughly discussed all over the country,
Near Chattanooga the other day the
motor referred to pulled crowded car
up a 7 per cent. grade and the brakes
could not hold it. 1t ran down the hill
at great speed; the conductor shouted to
the passengers to jump, which many of
them did, and some were killed. Of
course this affair will add fuel to the
flame of discussion, which will blaze
more fiercely than ever before.

The NEGRO ANbt 4iIS FRIENDS.

The NEGRO AND WIS FRIENDS.
The principal of the Prairie View nor
NAL school, established for the purpose of
educating colored teachers, in CONVERSE
ton with a representative of THE GA
zETTE a few months ago, made a remark
that was fun of good sense. Said he:
owe have too much politics. The race
problem is an industrial and educational
rather than a political one -
There is more good sense contained in
these few words than IN. pages of such
drivel as Albion W Tourgee and the other
negrophobists write in year. The ne
groes will do well to think over the mat
ter, and to act on the suggestion con-
tanned IN it. There is also contained in it
food for reflection for the white man.
And when thinking 1t over there are
several points that should not be forgot
ten. The white man should remember
that the negro is in the South to stay.
Large numbers OF them NAV be induced
to emigrate to other places, but by far
the larger number will stay where they
are. Then. seeing that the blacks are to
live among them, the next question Is,
what should be done to make this neigh
borship as peaceful and pleasant and
prosperous as possible for both whites
and blacks? The answer to this is found
in the statement quoted above. En-
courage the negro to educate himself.

The states are giving them opportunities
to go to school; try to teach them the
Importance of improving those opper-
tunities. In addition to this, furnish
them all the work possible and encourage
them to work and to take care of their
earnings. Poverty aud idleness cause
more political agitation in a week
than is caused in year by po-
htlcal ambition. Teach the negro
habits of industry and frugality, do what
can be done to make him happy in and
contented with his lot, eliminate the IN
settled, restless feeling that pervades his
mind, and politics will have little charm
for him. THE GAZETTE believes that
! the treatment of the negro since the war
| by the Southern people has been for the
most part kind and considerable, and
hopes that, come what may, it will be
continued, now that the race question is
being SO widely agitated. That the
Northern papers will not credit the South
with good intentions in this matter; that
every fact will be distorted and every
act misrepresented, goes without saying.
But the people of the South, in their
struggle with a problem, the seriousness
OF which has never been measured and
cannot be over-e estimated, cannot afford
to be turned from their good intentions
by Misrepresentation or goaded to i'm
proper action by malignant abuse and
utilization.
The negro, too, must consider the mat
ter. And it viii be well for him to enter
upon 1t with the recollection that the
Southern people are his friends; that
their regard for him is deeper and more
lasting sentiment than mere desire for
political supremacy; that he is TO great
extent dependent upon the prosperity of
his white neighbors for whatever meas
ure of prosperity he himself may enjoy.
Two propositions confront the negro:
First, listen to the advice of your South
ern friends, go to work, save your earn
ings, build homes for yourselves, buy
lands, educate your children. Second,
take the advice of your alleged friends of
the North, engage in political
agitation; arm yourselves with Win
chesters and six-shooters, and swear
you will rule and ruin the |
South. The one will lead to peace and
happiness and prosperity; the other will
plunge you in poverty and turmoil and
final destruction.
The Southern people have promised the
negro friendship and employment, and
both have been given SO far as possible
The agitators Of the North promised
forty acres and mule in return for a
vote. They got the vote, but the land
and the livestock were not forthcoming.
They promised big things through the
Freedman bureau savings bank and
their promise by one of the
most disgraceful failures IN the
history of rascality, swindling the
Door depositors out of everything. They
nave promised political advancement
Turing every political campaign and for
gotten 1t as soon as the polls were closed.
The Southern people, promising little,
AVE done much; the Northern people,
everything, have done moth
ng.
Following out these suggestions, work
ng together on these lines, the white
nan and the negro can live together in
he South in mutual peace and pros
eriry. A departure from them means
rOuble and unhappiness for both.

SPEAKING of branch papers, is the
history of such efforts in this country en-
cOuraging? Did the New York Herald
ever establish a branch in Chicago? Did
the Kansas City Times ever establish a
branch in Denver? Did not John w.
Forney try the experiment of running
two papers? Did not the Galveston News
establish a branch at Dallas only four
years ago, and is not that branch now
threatened with destruction? Crcum-
stances for a time may enable men to
run papers under one ownership in
different places, but, soon or late, the
inevitable happens. Even the cos
mopolitan newspaper man cannot
serve God and mammon, and
no paper can live that is not printed of
and for its town and state, and whose
allegiance to its domicile is not the prime
impulse and motive Temporary sue
cess may obscure this truth for q season,
but the end is as inevitable as the oppo-
sition with which the CD. News is
now threatened, because its impulse
came from the oIeanders rather than
from the black waxyof North Texas.
