Against Mixed Schools.
ATLANTA Journal.)

There Is not a Southern State which
would tolerate a school system that per-
mitted a mixing of the races. The fana-
tics Of New England who are bowling
over the Sheats bill ought TO have learned
this before now. Those who clamor for
the teaching Of negroes and whites in
the same schools I'm the South are enemies
Of the race. and If they had their way
would check the progress Of that race.
There IS not a respectable and influential
negro leader in the South who would not
oppose such a system. The negroes I'm this
section are as much in favor Of schools for
the races as are the whites.

Mr.. Bryan's letter addressed to the BIZ
metallists Of the country, which we pub
lish in another column Of this issue, is
written with his usual fluency and force.
and encourages the friends of free silver
to hope for victory four years hence. Mr.
Bryan sets forth what in his opinion
were the agencies which led TO his defeat
but the letter is good-tempered, and
must add to the already high estimation
in which he is held by millions Of Ameri-
cans. The letter Is hopeful and encourag-
ing throughout.
Mr.. Bryan. 1t seems. has two business
offers before him. one of which would
pay $4,000, and the other $4,000 per an
mum. His abilities as lawyer and pub
lie speaker are now universally recog-
nlzed, and though he has been defeated
for the presidency, it would seem that
his fortune has been made. He is d
noble frank. brave fellow-good luck to
him.

Tho Evening State of yesterday pub
fishes the following letter from Senator
Daniel. giving his views touching the re-
sult of Tuesdays election:
Lynchburg, Va, November eth.
To the Editor of the State:
There is no reason for true Democrats
IN he cast down. The party was over
thrown two years ago by an unpreceu-
ented majority, and started TINS cam
naign handicapped by an administration
which had gone in partnership with It's
enemies. Notwithstanding this, 1t has
made decided gains in Congress, and.
oonsidering that the Bryanites' great
leader fought against wind and tide" the
result A. the most marvellous achieve
ment OF American politics.
THE wisdom OF the Democrats In the
nomination OF Bryan has been INDICATED.
He has compelled the respect or his Toes.
endeared the hearts OF his friends, ana
upheld our cause with tireless energy
noble eloauence, and unanswerable logic.
re "a TO-DAY the foremost citizen or
America-"First In peace, and first In
the hearts OF his countrymen."
THE American people have shown that
thew possess that self-control which Is
the highest form OF self-assertion. Never
was SO great struggle. involving such
great interests. attended with such few
incidents of ill-behavior or violence. and
I'm the weil-tempered character OF our
peopls we behold the best guarantee OF
the perpetulty OF self-government.
The distressing and mournful feature
of the campaign was the shamelessness
with which money and coercion were EN-
ployed. without rebuke CT dissent from

wages. and want OF work. AS they made
