Excited Senator Blair.

A remark of Senator Blair Is attract
Ing considerable attention from the
newspapers throughout the country.
This fact is mentioned because the sena-
tor has made SO tiresome hobby of the
Blair educational bill that his remarks
have long ceased to be quoted and
1t is refreshing to find him saying
something Of interest. The notable
saying referred to il fierce arraign-
ment Of the newspapers of the country,
for neglecting TO print his speech on the
educational bill. The senator cannot
restrain his indignation at the failure of
the American press TO publish to the
world the facts with which he
has laid this most startling matter
before the Senate"
1t Is rumored that some wealthy en-
terprising journal will employ strong
corps Of readers to explore the sixty
seven pages of the Congressional Record
occupied by Senator Blair's recent
speeches. II there are startling
facts therein the papers want
them by all means, and Mr.. Blair
has himself to blame for their failure to
appear In print. Newspapers cannot
publish learned and heavy essays, how
ever great their value and the startling
matter should not have been buried out
Of sight in long and tiresome addresses.
Mr.. Blair's attack upon the press Is SO
bitter that 1t Is In itself startling matter,
but 1t is in brief and interesting form
and the prompt notice it is receiving is
sufficient refutation of the charges of
press unfairness 10 him. BE interesting,
senator, and you will be printed and
happy. How unhappy he now is is
proved by his strange declaration that
the press is In corrupt league to prevent
the consideration of the facts he Offers,
and, he adds : II am not without evi.
dence to justify my belief that there are
agencies in this country at the bottom
Of the fell and internal work"
Clearly, the senator is excited His
educational scheme is proving too heavy,
even for his own intellect, and he seeks
healthy diversion in hunting the deadly
newspaper man in the very act of prose,
cutting ''fell internal work"

C0lared Labor.

John II. Lynch, the colored ex-con-
xressman Of Mississippi, addressed q
large audienceof his race In the Phila-
delphia Academy Of Music on Thursday
night, and among other forcible re-
marks observed that more attention
should be given to mechanical indus
tries, as all negroes cannot be lawyers,
doctors, preachers and BARRIERS" He
might have added walters, but perhaps
he feared that the force of his argument
would be weakened as all seem to be
quite confident that they can be walters,
and they easily excel ia that profession.
There IL good deal In this observa-
Of Mr.. Lynch, and II the colored people
Of the South were given industrial train
ing the race problem would he made
much more easy Of solution. Their
labor needs to be diversified. There are
too many ordinary laborers, and those
who have ambition to seek another kind
Of employment usually aim at the pro-
fessions" referred to. Industrial train
ing is becoming the hobby of those who
are constantly seeking with admirable
energy to improve the system and
extend the scope Of education, and 1t
10 very wholesome reaction from
the tendency to excessive men
tai cramming by which we en-
deavor to give school children
command of oppressive masses Of
dry fact, exhausting their youthful
energy and uniting them for
active life. AS the education Of the
colored people Of the South Is now claim
ing the attention Of thoughtful men, the
experience of Northern public schools
should be there applied nnd industrial
training should be first attempted.
Every citizen should know how to read
and write, but 1t is even more important
that every citizen should be taught how
to make the most of his capacities as n
bread winner. Some educated men lack
Intelligence, and some illiterate people
show strong common sense and quick
comprehension. The illiterate peasantry
Of some parts of Europe are noted
for intelligence, industry and thrift.
The red flag mobs Of European
capitals are made up of people who have
not been made good citizens by educa.
tion. There is great deal of top hea-
vIness about our educational system, and
great deal of nonsense in the talk of
elevating the negro. The negro may
elevate himself but he can not do 1t by
his boot straps, even under the stimulus
Of education. The improvement of his
material prospects is the sure road to the
bstterment ofh social and mental con-
dition. Labor, black and white, needs
better wages, and slowly but surely,
though threatened by trusts and ham
pered by legislation, the average of earn
ings is advancing and the good time
coming when child labor will be un-
known, poverty inexcusable, and higher
education within the easy, natural reach
Of all. The problem before the negro is
but another form Of that confronting all
races and he ia better off than the white
laborer OF few generations back. If the
general improvement Of the conditions
Of labor does not enable him to rise to
Independent and thrifty citizenship it
will be his own fault.
