EX-GOVERNOR BULLOCK TALKS.
He Tells All He Knows on the Negro
 Question.


 Question.
 Rochester, N. Y, Oct. 25.-Ex-Gov. Ru- fus B. Bullock, who is native of Albion, Orleans county, is visiting In this city. He has been attending the Episcopalian church convention in Minneapolis Colo nel Bullock went south before the war and became a colonel in the Confederate army. In speaking of the Atlanta expo sition Governor Bullock said: The exhi- bitions show what we of the south have got, what we can do and what We want to have done. The fact that the colored man has been given place at the ex- position should be especially emphasized, as this is the first time such thing has occurred. .sy4.
 In regard to the negro problem in the south he said: ''In my opinion we have passed all those problems in Georgia. At one time there seemed to be a fear that the colored man would gain supremacy in government affairs, but everybody knows now that the agitation was started from purely political motives.
 "A colored man in the south today is practically on an equal footing with white man, statements to the contrary notwithstanding. His condition there is entirely different from what it Is in the north. He may work at the same bench with the white carpenter or on the same
  north, as understand it, the only ave- nues open to him for support are as waiter or barber.
 ''The immigration schemes which have been started as the result of wild dreams of religious enthusiasts have mostly failed. We have but few strikes, and this, believe. is the direct result of the fact that we have settled the negro prob lem in Georgia. We need the colored man in the south, and every thinking white man is making strenous efforts to have him stay" 5oa
 Colonel Bullock spoke of the many out rages under mob rule which have been perpetrated on colored men in the south and was strong in his denunciation of them. The law, he says Is the same for a white man as for a negro, namely that the crime is punishable by death. But the horrible humiliation to which these criminals have been subjected. is, in his mind, the work of a few lawless men.
 Intermarriage between the two races, Colonel Bullock says, is amost unknown in the south.

MT. Jaurez Highly Complimented.

Paris, Oct. 25.-The speech made yes- terday by M. Jaurez, socialist member of the chamber of deputies, on the recent strikes of the glass workers at Carmaux has confirmed the opinion that he Is the greatest French rhetorician since Gam betta. The members of the chamber sat spell-bound by eloquence. Instead of de- manding a vote of want of confidence in the government in M. Jaurez behalf, the socialist proposed that M. Brisson be ap- pointed to arbitrate between the disput- ants at Carmaux. M. Brisson expressed his willingness to act as arbitrator if tha chamber wished him to do so. This move took the chamber by surprise and the de- ba te was adjourned.
