SYSTEM OF EDUCATION
FOR THE NEGRO IT Is ILL
DIRECTED.
HEAD EDUCATED AT EXPENSE or HEART
Politicians Use the Negro for Their Own Selfish
Ends. Abuse Of Ballot Box Chargea-
bic Mere to White Demagogues
than to the Blacks.

Baltimore. Md. November 25.-Cardi-
nal Gibbons, in discussing the recent race
troubles in the South, said to repre-
sentative of the Baltimore Sun to-day:
in the history of mankind it has been
observed that when two distinct races
co-existed in the same territory, one race
has always exercised certain supremacy
over the other While this principle IS
admitted, it is the manifest duty of every
patriotic statesman and Christian to sec
that the relations between the races
should be friendly, harmonious and mu-
tually beneficial.
THE race conflicts, antagonists ana
bloodshed which have recently occurred
in several States of the Union can be
largely traced to two great cause.-the
one-sided and ill-diected system of negro
education and the indiscrimnate eXer-
else and consequent abuse of the ballot
box.
..trhe colored race continued the Car
dinal. ARE naturally kind and gentle, af-
fectionate and grateful, with religious
emotions easily aroused. But the educa'

lated to sharpen their mental faculties al
the expense of their religious and moral
sense. 1t fosters ambition without sup
plyirfg the means of gratifying 1t. 1T
feeds the head, while the heart is straved.
No education is complete that does
not teach the science of self-restramt,
and this is found only in the Decalogue
and in the Gospels. But it is hard to
get hearing on the subject of popular
education. We must appeal from Peter
drunk to Peter sober.
1.-The abuses of the ballot box Is charge
able more to white demagogues than to
the blacks themselves. The politicians
use the negro vote for their own selhsh
purposes. | am persuaded that re-
striction of suffrage by property quallh-
cation would be Il wise measure. 1T
would be an incentive to industry, and as
men are instinctively disposed to protect
their own property they will naturally
vote for those rulers and public officers,
who. in their Judgment, are more quail
fed to protect their property from IN
lust and exorbitant taxation and to pro
mote the material prosperity of the com
monwealth.'

SHAFTER ON THE WAR.
He Speaks to the Sons of the Revolu-
ton at Il Banquet,

New York, Nov. 25.-General Shafter
was the principal guest tonight at Il
banquet given at Delmonicos. by the
Sons of the Revolution of this State.
In the course of Il speech, he said:
Il wish to say nothing about the late
war. about the success i'll Cuba. At
Santiago there was no rancor or enemity
between the Spanish and American
forces. They tlockcd together thicker
than heas, if | may use the term.
Il suppose, continued General Shaft
er, that you all know how that cam
paign has been bitterly criticised. |
want to tell you that it is much easier
for man to say how Il thing should be
done than to do it.
War was declared in April, at the be-
ginning of the Sickly season in Cuba.
continued General Shafter. 1T was the
expressed intention Of the President, and
he told me SO himself, to delay the war
until after that season, no matter what
the public clamor was. He would not
send volunteers into Cuba during the
sickly season.

FAILURE OF A CATTLE KING.
The Meteoric Career of Grant c. Gil
lett. of Abilene.

Abelene. Kansas, Nov. pa failure
involving some cattle interest throughout
the Southwest was precipitated here to-
day when an attachment suit for S4O,-
600 was filed against Grant c. Gillett,
of Woodbine by the Gillespie Commits
sion Company, of Kansas Clty.
Gillett controls thousands of cattle on
the Southwestern ranges and his liabili-
Ties are believed to be over million
dollars.
1t is now known that on Monday of
the present week Gillett made an as
signment and deed of trust of all his
holdings to ID. w. Nall. Gillett at once
departed for Texas. Mr.. NALL, however,
refused to accept the trusteeship, and
the papers were not filed.
This condition of affairs becoming
noised about. Gillett's creditors came
down upon him in droves. Men repre-
senting twenty-five commission firms III
Kansas City arrived at Woodbine to-day
on n special train and Immediately be
gan searching for Gillett's cattle which
are ranging over Central and Western
Kansas. Oklahoma. Indian Territory and
Texas. How many there are none Of
the creditors seem to know, but 1t is
stated that there are about 5000 head
an Gillett's Woodbine ranch. Some idea
of the extent of Gillett's liabilities was
gained Mt the county registers office
here where fully S1.000.000 of his paper
is recorded About one-third Of it is
blanket and unreleased mortgages, while
the remainder cover cattle now being
fed
Most of Gilletts paper is thought to
have been held by Kansas City banks
and commission firms. but the firms who
are represented here on the ground
claim to he amply protected.
The career Of Grant G. Gillett has
been of the sky rocket order. He is
but 81 years old. and his operations have
startled the more conservative stocF
men. -Four years ago he lived on q
mortgaged quarter section of land near
Woodbine. where he began his cattle
trade by feeding steers for others In
this he was successful, and on the little
ranch he laid the groundwork Of 2
business which has enabled him tc
handle over 100000 cattle within tho
last three years. His methods were as
novel as they were daring. Soon he
seemed to have unlimited credit lie
bought great droyes of cattle in Texas
and brought them north for sales and
feeding. Soon he organized his celebrat
ed cowboy" band. composed of plains
men in his employ and when he rode
about the country in his special car he
took his band of musicians with him HI
even took them into Eastern cities Where
they attracted much attention
Mr.. Gillett is said to have recently
taken ont S237,000 of life insurance anC
100000 of accident insurance.

No Harm Meant to the Negro.

It has reached this paper
that some of the cOlored peo-
pie of Raleigh regard the eel
ebration to be held here on
Tuesday evening as in a sense
a demonstration against
them, and are somewhat ap-
prehensive on that account.
This is totally a mistaken
idea. There is neither desire
nor intention to do them de-
spite in any particular. The
colored people of this city
have been, on the whole, Or
derly and well behaved and
certainly the white people
cherish toward them none
but kindly intentions. Raj.
eigh has been happily free
from Manlys and Covingtons
and negroes of that stripe,
who incite the ignorant and
gullible members of the race
to a course of conduct that
inevitably leads to incidents
like those of our less tor tu-
nate sister city, Wilmington.
The colored people of Raj
eigh, and other towns for
that matter, can rest assur-
en that so long as they con-
duct themselves in an order.

A Lesson for the Future.

There is one county in
Western North Carolina that
the Fusionists carried which
would have gone Democratic
il the Democratic nominees
had waged the campaign on
the line adopted by the State
Convention. Some of t h e
candidates, in hunting about
for negT oes votes, lodged the
great need OF White Suprem-
acy which gave the party
great strength in every part
of the State. 4 private note
from a gentleman in that
county has this paragraph:
This county ought to
have been carried and would
have been If our candidates
had all made a red hot en-
thusiastic canvass on the
overshndowingissu of White
Supremacy. [ have no doubt
that other counties that tail
ed to draw the color line
tightly and make White Su-
premacy its main issue SUI
fpred."
This gentleman is right.
From the first the only hope
in success was in uniting the
white men Of the State. They
could not be united except
when shown that division in.
vited negro rule, Wherever
the evils of negro rule were
shown. white men forgot
past differences and united.
That fact ought to be OF fu-
ture benefit.-News and OBJ
