Fortune is a capable writer and he would
never put down with a pen the absurd bosh
ne allowed his tongue to utter and he nat
urally does not like the looks of his re-
marks in cold type. 1t is that awful differ

words. The representative of The Star who
reported Mr. Fortune was careful and
painstaking and his report rather went un-
the frothy orator reached. Mr.. Fortune
can be given credit for what he intended to
say, but what he did say was accurately re-
ported. His desire may have been that the
President be stabbed with ballot box, but
in his haste to cover the whole field of his
denunciation he forgot to mention the bal
lot box and the only inference left was that
ne had some sharper weapon in his mind.
He discllims the desire to slash the Su-
preme Court with an African" razor, and
1t must have been simply plain ordinary
razor that he suggested. He did not be-
wall the fact that the colored people of
wilmington did not use the torch. He
merely said that 1t was "A strange thing
that black men were killed and yet no prop

A nonsensical idea is afoat in the news
papers importing that the President is en-
barrassed to find a person suitable to fill
the position of ambassador to Great Bri-
tain, who possesses the intellectual equip
ment for the place and large fortune be-
sides. Probably this notion was conceived
by some candidate who has a larger stock
of the latter than of the former uualifica-
tfons. and whose imposing dinners are his
principal distinction. 1t is, perhaps worth
while to show what a fiimsy basis this
vulgar idea rests upon. The truth Is that
not one Of our ministers to England in re-
cent years has been a man of any consider
able means, unless possibly Mr.. Hay may
be so considered Going back to the time
of Charles Francis Adams, who are the
men who can be recalled as having shed
luster on the office? The names of Motley,
Lowell, Phelps and Bayard are the ones
most readily recalled, none of whom was
a rich man. Besides these were Reverdy
Johnson, Robert c. Schenck, Edwards
Pierrepont. William WeIch and Robert Lin
coin, not one of whom could be accounted
a rich man. Hence the latter-day concep-
tion that somebody ought to be appointed
ambassador to Great Britain on account of
his dollars. or that some other man should
not be appointed because of his lack of
dollars, is as baseless as it is groveling and
un-American-

One of the most pleasing and substantial
results of the Presidents trip into the south
was the opportunity then afforded the menu
bers of the administration to observe and
understand the work which is being done
at Tuskegee by Prof. Booker T. Washing
ton and his colleagues in behalf of the col
ored people. Secretary Wilson gave voice
10 his sense Of appreciation of this work in
the Interview which was printed in yester-
days Star, and il is not to be doubted that
similar impressions We're received by other
members of the presidential party. Secre-
tary Wilson rightly conceives that the work
at Tuskegee points a satisfactory way to
the elevation of the peoples of the islands
now being brought into the American sys-
TEN of government. He saw at Tuskegee
the process of teaching the colored man
and woman how, as he expressed it, 'to
do something somebody wants done" This
IS merely giving them a chance to become
self-sustaining. valuable members of the
social community. Heretofore there has
been too much unframed effort on the part
not only of the colored people but of very
many white people as well. There is but
little conservation and direction of energy
not enough specialization of talents. The
IuskeSee institution can not, of course, do
more at present than to leaven the lump
II can, however, set a splendid example and
set people to thinking outside of the area
of its own practical operations. The words
of Secretary Wilson show how vital a force
the establishment is in this regard. Booker
Washington is a missionary of the right
sort, and is doing more for his people for
their permanent benefit and the good of So
ciety in general than a horde of agitators
of the so-called race question.
Secretary Wilson, of course looked spe-
ciauy upon the enterprise from the stand
point of the agriculturist. He saw at Tus-
kegee a beacon light for the benefit of the
farmers of the land. Work of this same
sort is being and for some years has been
done in the states as he showed in his in
terview, but the field is only Just being
ploushed for the virgin crop. The process
OF educating humanity in the true method
of extracting from the soil the full fruits
of nature is only just started. 1t is graft
lying, therefore, to reflect that the colored
people, who sorely need practical better
ment In many ways, are afforded SO fine
chance to participate in this initial work
of course the enterprise at Tuskegee is in
dustrial as well as agricultural 1t seeks TO
give to those in attendance maximum of
useful knowledge of the materials where
with modern man sustains himself in COM
fort and health. 1t stimulates the mind and
trains the hand and the Judgment There is
chance in every state for similar institu-
tions for the men and women of all races
and compilations. Secretary Wilson'S wise
understanding of this fact ought to be inn
pressed upon the people of all sections. AS
a representative of the government he is in
a position to spread the information which
he gained tar abroad to the encouragement
of the practical workers who are hoping to
amehorate the condition of the struggling
classes.
