The Negro in the South.

The Augusta Chronicle quotes
largely in its editorial columns from
the admirable speech of Prof. Booker
u. Washington, colored, at the open
ing of the Atlanta Exposition, and
adds: Let the young negroes learn
that it is honorable to work with the
hammer and the saw, to follow the
pillow, to use the painters brush, to
WELD the axe or to engage in any
honest labor, and that in order to be
respectable and respected citizen it
is only necessary to honestly dis
charge ones duties in whatever
sphere of life he labors. 1t is not
necessary to be politician. to be Il
stump speaker or to follow one of the
professions, but simply to faithfully
discharge the duty that is yours.
And in the language Of Judge Speer,
who spoke upon the same occasion
with Washington, there is one thing
since his emancipation the South has
ever granted to the negro-that is,no
matter what his trade or occupation.
his privilege of earning a living. 1t
is a common spectacle upon struct-
ures of every character to behold
numbers of white and negro lnechan.
les working side by side | have re-
GREETED to learn that this is not true
in the Northern States. ,"

Work of the Postal Service.

WASHINGTON, September 90
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
r. A. Maxwell's report for the fiscal
year ended June 80 last, is one of the
earliest to be presented, as was the
case last year. 1t indicates 1900
new appointments of fourth class
Postmasters made within the year,
only 100 of them having been oc-
casioned by death, which is exactly
the same number as last year.
During the year the greatest in
crease in the number of postofIices
was in oklahoma-G9 Virginia
follows, with &C. and Indian Terri
tory, with 60. Nineteen States show
a decrease in the number of post
offices, the greatest loss occurring in
Kansas-53, South Carolina losing
A, and Iowa and West Virginia 80
each.-Nearly 10000 complaints re-
garding ordinary mail matter were
received and disposed of during the
year by the Inspectors division.
Under the head of foreign cases,
the report emphasizes the superiority
of the registry system of the United
States over that of most foreign
as exemplified by the
records of the New York Postofzice,
where most of the business is

Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1895-09-28

The speeches of the men, who par
ticipated in the exercises at the dedi
cation of the Chickamauga National
Park, last week, were generally in
good taste and creditable to both
sections. The Northern orators seem
to have presented their views of the
war and its results with a respectful
Difference for the opinions of those
against whom they had been arrayed
in arms, and the Southern orators if
Jess demonstrative as to the results,
showed by their utterances love of
country which no one doubted or
questioned. To prove their patriot
ism, however, it is gratifying to note,
that there were no 'erring brother
speeches from those who represented
the side of the South and none per-
mitted to go unrebuked, which were
made by those who represented the
other side One only is reported
Jrc.de by the Governor of Vermont
in the course of his remarks as fol-
lows: after all we have seen and
after all we know, the Southerners
will in the future have to teach their
children that the South was wrong,n
and the spirited manner in which
Governor Turney, of Tennessee, met
and refuted it, will be generally APP
proved in the South. He said in part:
81 believed was right during the
war. AT the end of the war thought
l was right. l have never seen the
time when I saw anything to make
me believe l was wrong. l shall
teach my children and the children
of my friends that was right. No
one to- day is more loyal to the flag
than l, but never can be convinced
that the South was wrong,n and in
his views the Southern people will
for the most part heartily concur.
