POLK MILLER The NEGRO.
His Atlanta speech Compiimented by a
New York PAper.

The New York Erening Post, in comment
ing edltorally on Mr. Polk Miller's recent
address at the Atlanta Chatauqua. says
Mr. Polk Miller, of Richmond Va, who
has made lifelong study of the negro.
summarizes IL in this fashion: The worst
thing that ever happened to him so tar as
"a his comfort, happiness, aud pleasure
are concerned was setting him free, but |
do not hesitate TO affirm that his enfran-
chIsement was the best thing that ever
happened to the white people Of the
South" Mr.. Miller is "A pesslmlst about
the negro's future but he has marked
affection for him personally, aud indulges
the hope that his ideas about him will not
be realized. Among other things this
critic of the negro says: Although H.
literacy is one of the most CONSPICUOUS
features 10 this race the dlreetness
of their aim when endeayorlng to
strike the bulls eve IN an argument
must be conceded. Nhilo music to
some white people is distasteful. |

OF any kind that did not appeal TO

Jingle and harmony of many voices.
A pathetic solo does not move him

or no talth III the aDllltV or tho negro 10
rise. however good his intellectual tram
ing may be, as long as there is lacking
the moral influence which should be, but
which is not. exerted at home. Education
has not cultivated the spirit of patriotism
among TIE negroes by expanding their
range of thought and feeling. and in
stead OF broadening their ideas 1t has
increased their egotism and contempt
fo- their own race. They have made
little progress in Identifying Themselves
with the duties of citizenship. The best
educated among them arc much less IN
accord with the spirit of the institutions
under which they live than foreigners
from despotic countries who have been
naturalzed. The future Of the negro de-
pends on the white races interest IN him
ana that portion of the race with which he
has been associated for the last two centu-
rios
