Il
Judge Albion W. Tourgee, who is devot-
ing his entire attention 10 Southern prob
lems and has made the negro race ques-
ton a special study, takes an optimistic
view Of the prospects Of the colored peo-
pie which is directly in conflict with the
talk that comes up from the South about
their nferiority to the whites. Judge
Tourgee points out that a quarter of a
century ago these people were not worth
any appreciabe amount of property but
in ten years they accumulated $l2, 900, 900
in savings banks, and today hold property
valued at 800, 900, 600 In Georgia they
own million acres. Half the mechanics
in the South are negroes, and they raise
two-thirds Of the cotton. The African
Methodist church has II, 900 churches, 10,
900 ministers and contributes 81, O00, 900
annually for church work. The percent
age Of illiterate whites, at present rate Of
progress, will soon be greater than that of
blacks If a conflict should be forced, the
judge assures the noisy fire eaters that the
odds would not be surely with the whites
