FREE SCHOOLS IN THE SOUTH.
GROWTH OF THE SYSTEM THERE NOTED BY
THE COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION.

THE COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION.
Washington Sept. ISL n. B. Dawson, the Com
missioner OF Education, has filed with the secretary
OF tho Interior his annual report for the year ended
June 30. 1882 He says that from an analysis of the
statistics of public schools for the decade 1870'7 to
1ssG,s7 it appears that the growth of the system,
considering the whole country, Outstrpped during
that period the growth OF population, the excess OF
the increase of enrolment the increase in popu-
lation, six to fourteen years Of age, being l.6 per
cent This gain, the Commissioner says, Is due en-
tely to the progress OF the public schools in the two
Southern sections and more especially in the South
Central division. The sentiment in favor OF free
schools supported by public funds, he says, IS becom-
ing each year more universally prevalent. The pub
lie school systems Of the Southern States have been
undergoing an unprecedented development, under
laws adapted in each to local circumstances ard
arc now practically all established permanent
basis Colored children are apportoned an equal
share Of the school funds, unless I'm the state or
Delaware and their schools kept open as long and
under as we'll paid teachers as those OF the white
children The funds for the support Of these schools
are furnished mainly by the white inhabitants.
In the course OF his remarks upon the public schools
in the principal cities, the Commissioner says: In
no department Of city school work is Improvement
more manifest than in the primary schools and this
for the reason perhaps, that In them there was the
greatest room for improvement"
The Commissioner regrets his lnaOlHty 10 report
a general adoption Of physical training III the pubic

Adolf strasser president of the international Cigar

cigarmakers' convention in Tammany Han yesterday

There was proposition to divide the lnernsuonaf

BY FORCE AND FRAUD.
MR. PHELAN ON THE RACE QUESTION.
ADM ssIoNs OF CoNGREssMAN.ELEcT WHOSE
SEAT Is CONTESTED

ADM ssIoYs OF A CoNGREssMAN.ELECT WHOSE
SEAT Is CONTESTED.
Washington, Sept. 10 CspeciaD james Phclan, Of
Memphis, Tenn, who received certificate "
Represenatvc-elect to the List Congress- has arrived
I'm Washington and con tributcd some OF his views on
the race question: for publication. In part he said :
The domination OF the white is simply
question of civilization To give the negroes control
of the law.maklng power would invite every kind OF
extravagance give them charge CT the courts would
substitute corruption for Justice to make them shcrfs
would put authority in the hands OF brutal ignorance
AS It happens the negroes Republicans. II they
were to walk in and seize the Democratic party the
white people would leave 1t, come what might. In
my district tho negroes are fairly intelligent. Not
over per cent of them read. Hundreds Of them
had no idea who running for President in the last
election. They had heard the name Of Harrison and
thought It Senator Harris Lots Of them voted
for him in consequence. The charge that the South
has imposed the negroes Is simply repetition Of
history. Wherever the Ango-Saxon has gone he has
invariably imposed on the weaker race by force and
fraud.D
returns by 5000 majority, has his seat contested
II VIII be observed that Mr. Phelan gives away his
when he says that the AngOSaxon has invariably
imposed the weaker by force and fraud.' That
force and fraud' both, gave Mr.. Phelan his
apparent majority Colonel Eaton, the contestant for
the seat, VIII be able 10 prove, In 1904 MI Dlaho
and the Republican candidate for Congress in the
Memphis district carried every of the four counties
which composed the district, tho total majority being
about 600 In 1888 the apparent majority OF Glove
land and Phelan IN the district was more than 5000
and they carried every county by overwhelming ma
joritles-the total returned vote being nearly 1000
greater than In 1884.
AS It happens the negroes are Republican says
Mr. Phelan. As It happens also. about 81 per cent
Of the voters In Mr.. Phelans district negroes, and
therefore, Republicans. But Mr.. Phelan says that
lots Of them thought that Senator Harris was the
Republican candidate for President, and voted Tor
him I'm consequence 1t may be that Mr. Phelan VIII
adduce official proof OF this fact in the trial OF his eec
ton contest but IL seems good deal more probaDie
that In making this assertion he has been simply
laying up wrath against the day of wrath" There
good reason believe that before that contest is
decided and the prosecution of dishonest election
officers In West Tennessee Is ended the proof VIII be
clear that TO Harrison instead OF Cleveland belonged
the vote of Tennessee.
