A NOTARLE COmPLAINT,

OF all the complaints that have been
made this summer the complaint of the
Christian Advocate of Richmond, Virginia,
is the most curious. The Christian Advo-
cate murmurs because the negro boys in
the South are getting better education
than the white boJs. The public schools
are open to both alike, but the negro boy
takes more naturally, 1t seems, to learning
than the white boy, and when he has got
all he can out of the public school, svery
State has manual training school or a
school of technology where he can learn
trade and prepare to make himself use
full If not indispensable to the white man.
Furthermore, the Christian Advocate has
a notion that the institutions established
in the South for negro education are part
of the war against the Confederacy. 1t
says that "Northern millionaires, in hatred
of the paroled citizens, have endowed COL
leges as tools and machines to equip the
ex slave to eurpsss and subiugate the sons
of the Confederate veteran in the struggle
for the best pay and position in the skilled
trades"
Here's richness. OF course there is no
Justice in the complaint, but there is some
ground for the fear that underlies 1t. The
negroes have made good deal of progress
since they were emancipsted. In 1867 the
value of property in the South registered
for taxation as belonging to colored people
was but $4,000; now It is abolt $780,
100000 Educational progress has been
equally noteworthy. The census of 1891
reported an aggregate of 25,53O schools,
with 1895, ,229 colored pupils. Aside from
the large amounts obtained from other
| sources, the South has In twenty seven
| years contributed $50, 100000 to the
| education of the negro race. Besides
the many institutions for their higher
| education s. that have haAn found
ed and maintained by religious snt
| philanthropic societies, there are sever
| Afro-American colleges that are conducted
and supported by colored people. In thu
| professions there are $50 attorneys, 74s
doctors and more than GOO college grad
uates Colored students to the number o
247 are in European universities fitting
themselves for tutors and professors
There are 154 newspapers with colored ed
itors, some of whom are writer's of decides
ability. Finally, there are 2, ,250, 600 colore'
people who can read and write.
This Is free country, and If, as th
Christian Advocate indicates, the souther
whites are afraid the negroes will get ahea
of them in property and education the
must brace up and go to work. The
ought to be able to at least hold their ow
with their former slsves, and the descend
| ants of them.

AN 0U,D 0URS TON,

The question Is life worth liVingf mas
bsen asked, ws suppose, ever since the
first man qusrreled with the fret woman,
which event, we also suppose, was soon
after the first man became acquainted with
the first woman. So the question is prob
ably a very old one. No general and con-
elusive answer to the question has yet
been made, but most people live as long as
they can, owing partly perhaps to the lack
of an answer to that other old q question,
Is death worth dyings Though most people
fail to answer either question to their own
satisfaction, there are some who MAKE their
answer to both by killing themselves.
Just now such people seem to be especially
numerous in London and in Paris and
| their performances have led to vigorous
and frank discussion of the two questions
in the Euglish papers. And 1t is interest
| ing to note that many of the writer's come
| to the conclusion that life Is not worth
living. One of the boldest writers on the
| subject is William Archer, who. after
asserting that nowhere in the Bible is sui
eide condemned, eays: What we want,
what our grandsons or grest-grandsons
will probably have, is a commodious and
scientific lsthal chamber, which shall re-
duce to a minimum physical terrors and
inconvenience of suicide, both for the
patient and for his family and friends. In
q rational state of civilization self-efaee-
ment should cost us no more physical
screwing up of courage than visit to the
barbsr's, and much less than visit to the
dentists. Mental effort will always be
severe enough to keep people from wanton-
ly and in mere caprice putting an end to
themselves.
1t is, we suppose. pretty well estao
li.hed that all who commit suicide are moi
lunstics, and there are people who really
ought to kill themselves If anybody ough
to. But the chief difficulty with suicide
aside from the moral questions invoired'il
that very few people can safely decide tna'
they have given life q sufficiently fair ane
thorough test to warrant them In lesv
ing It, And if they leave 1t before the!
ought to they make loss. Then there is tn
equally great risk of dying. Who know
what shall be after mani 1t Ia rathe
reckless act to wilfully die. 1t Is proba
bly more conservative and pruaent to hv
until desth comes In the natural order Q
Is things. A man who burglariously, as
- were, and with force and arms, breaks int
what Ia called eternity" may not &c
: wisely and may discover that he doe
not when 1t is too late. 1t Is certain tni
his act is against the general good sense
mankind, If that amounts to anything
and It is lacking In true pluck and health
philosophy. People who are "tired
life" seem to forget that they may also g
tired of death, and that living may be
worse than dying. Desire for change

the change will be for the better. II

What "The Press: FOretOld.

On November Ii, 1892, six days
after the vote in favor of Cleveland
election, The Press, under the head
ing, "The Rise in Wages Checked, "
published the following
The high water mark of American
wages has been passed until the cleo
ton ofanother Republican President.
The Press deplores this fact but it is
useless TO deny it. The victory at the
polls of the advocates of "cheap la
Dor" means a stoppage in the general
rise OF American wages.
About four months have passed
since Cleveland's Inauguration, and
already American labor is beginning
to pay the penalty for Democratic
success. News comes from many quar-
tiers of industries shutting down, of
trade paralyzed and business dor
mant and unproftable.-N. 7. Press.
