judge Gumby ON the Race Problem.

ST.. PAUL, July 11.-Judge Gumby, of the
Louisiana supreme court, delivered an in
teresting address tonight, before the Teach
ers' convention, On the race problem,
which, he said, concerns not only the south,
but the whole country. ut will not settle
itself. 1t must not be let alone; it demands
grave thought and determined action if we
would solve it by bloodless revolution.
All the trouble in the south arises from the
political jealousy of the negro and from the
fear OF the whites that negro rule
will be restored and utterly destroy
the new born progress of the south. The
true solution of the race problem on a just
basis lies in the restriction of the suffrage
and the only just restriction is an educa-
| tional qualification. If the negro was en-
abled to exercise the right of suffrage in
diligently, all the danger and apprehen-
sion of real trouble would cease This
qualification should be adopted by the gen
eral government and the same government
| should give the negroes the means of edu-
cation to qualify them for the bur-
dens and responsibilities of citizen
ship which the government placed on
them to subserve its own ends. Public
education is the proudest and grandest dis
tinction of the American nation, and ought
to be put into the national constitution.
The press should cease to be partisan in
the presence of this grave issue; statesmen
sholldithrow aside all temporary eXpedients
and adjust the question on basis just and
| fair and safe to both races

mans this evening, made his closing speech
in the debate on the vote for Balfour's
salary IS chief secretary for Ireland.

chase bill be used to the best advantage,
Parnell suggested that the constabulary be
employed this autumn in obtaining
returns from estates in Munster and Con-
naught, showing the rents paid respect
lively by occupying and by non-occupying
tenants. If that course were tgken, Bal
four would find the magnitude of the PROD
lem he had undertaken to solve enormously
reduced He would be enabled to
SO modify the bill that the avail
able fund would go still further
than he had any present idia of. 1t must
still be insisted, however, that local money
must not be hypothicated for the benefit OF
local authorities.
Balfour thanked Parnell for the moder
alton of his speech, and promised to con

that city, ON which occasions he frightened
women and children. Heis described as
being old in appearance, with shaggy beard
and ferocious cast OF countenance. His
long matted white hair streams !'from
from his head, while his eyes roll wildly
either with fever OR deirium. The
creature appears in almosta naked condi
ton, carrying only a small red blanket,
which hes uses as couch. His chief de-
light is to lie down near railroad track,
remain there a short time aud jump up

sionally been known to beg for food at

alarmed the women and he has been driven

that place several weeks ago. All efforts
to capture the strange man have proved
unavailing.

The tariff question is the most import

bone of this and other governments, ii is
necessary they should understa this ques-

dangerous one to handle, and If it should

throughout the land, something never ex-
perienced by the American people.n
