NORTH CAROLlNA'S ANSWER.
During the recent Peace Jubilee in Chi
c go, Booker T. Washington made a
speech which wes consid cred the best of
the many excellent ones delivered
Among other things, Mr.. Washington
said:
"During the last s:x months you Lave
been testing US as if by fire, and you
have it from thu lips of Shafter, Rooee-
yelt and Wheeler from the lips of
Northern soldier and Southern soldier
that We did not fail you. Now we are
going to turn the tables. We are going
o put you on, trial. We are going t !,
prepare ourselves in properly, thrift,
economy, education ard character 70.
the eighest duties of ciiz nship: When
We have so prepared ours lives as race
we are going to ask that in every part of
this country you accord US the came bust
ness and civil opportunities that you
now extend to all cas- es and condit obs
who find here ST. elter and home from
foreign hnde. We are going to ask that
as you forgot the color line when that
intr+ pid black regim eut saved the r ugh
Riders, you forget it in your industria
and civil c. nduct. We are going 10 ask
that as You did not judge Of the effect
ivene's Of the bullet by the color of the
man behind the gun, you cease to Judge
the value of the citizenship by the curl
of the hair or tie ncsure of the skin.

PROPOSED NEW CURRENCY.


s.
A system OF transferring money by mail
which Will be cheap and easy and within
the reach Of everybody, and at the same
time afford the government a large rev.
enue has been under consideration by tho
postoffice and treasury departments, and
may become operative. It consists i'm the
issuance OF post checks. These checks it
Is proposed to have Of various denomina-
lions running from cents to SIS. They
will be something like the old fractional
currency Of war times. In fact these
checks would be nothing more or less than
fractional currency in general circulation
as long as the spaces on the face were
left blank.
When a man wants to pay bill in an
other part of the country he aff1xes
cent stamp to the lower right-hand corner
of the post note and then writes on the
face of the note the name of the payee
and his city and state. His own name is
so written as to cancel the stamp. Then
he puts the post note in letter and sends
It away. This check can then be eashed
! only by the person who is named on its
SURFACE as payee or by his order. When
; the payee gets the post check he can get
the money ON 1t at the nearest postof1ce.
! The 2 cent stamp which every spost note
! would have to bear would cause large
revenue to. accrue to the government, II
the plan worked as well as its advocates
; think 1t will. The proposed system, 1t is
i thought, would be Of great benefit to mer-
! chant. who have large out-of-town
trade. The bill providing for the carry
ing out OF ,the scheme will probably come
before congress at IT. next session.
