The Louisville Courier-Journal fore
sees "a better understanding of the race
problem" in the north, though the emf
grafton Of negroes from the south. 1t
notes substantial increase of blacks
in New York and Brooklyn. and If
other northern cities are similarly af-
fected. the Courier-Journal thinks the
people up here will get more accu-
rate conception of the difficulty Of deal
ing with large, ignorant and british
class" while at the same time, the
south will be relieved of some portion
of its own burden. The distribution
of this burden is a favorite remedy with
some theorists. but as the negroes are
not good at colonizing, the chances are
that not enough of them will emigrate
to cause the north embarrassment or
bleach the complexion of the black belt.
lndustrially a grand exodus Of blacks
would be considered a serious misfor-
tune to the south.

4 SOUTHERN PHENOMENON.

Tomorrow. if all plans are carried out,
the south will witness a remarkable
demonstration. the like, of which has
never been recorded in American his
tory. Booker T. Washington, a negro,
principal Of the Tuskegee institute for
the education of colored youths, will
be publicly received at Atlanta by the
most influential white men of Georgia.
The governor will make an address Of
welcome on behalf of the state, and
Clark Howell of the Constitution will
entertain him as the guest of the city.
Prof. Washington has been invited by
the white men. will be feted by them,
and finally he will address them on the
subject of the negroes in other coun-
tries. He has but just returned from
a European tour, and lately he was
received at his old home in West Vir-
ginia with manifestations of respect
similar to those which are promised in
Georgia.
The significance of the Atlanta re-
ception is much enhanced by the fact
y
acquired a prevalence and malignity
scarcely exceeded in any other south
eHn commonwealth, and it is pertinent
to inquire why Prof. Washington
should be singled out for such extraord-
mary honors. No other man of his
race has been similarly complimented.
In the opinion of many northern man,
the Atlanta enterprise would seem a
bold affront to southern sentiment
The only discernible answer is found
in the character of the man and the
work he is doing. The Georgia dem
onstration serves notice to the world
that Prof. Washington's methods are
those of which the south approves and
from which it expects results The
Tuskegee educator has kept out of pol
tiles: he has been temperate and Judi
cious in his utterances concerning the
race troubles Of the south; he recog-
nizes more than one side of the cues
ton: he has believed in his own mis-
sion. and has devoted himself to it with
persistency and intelligence, needless of
jibes, enmity and spite. He has gone
about his own business. Prof. Wash
ington's visit to Atlanta must have a.
salutary influence upon the country, the
southern people in particular, and the
blacks themselves. This is not a man
who deals in platitudes or hesitates to
speak the truth, but his speech NAV be
expected to be practical and helpful as
well as conciliatory, and the public
officials who have thus exalted him
knew they were not setting up a
dummy. BY thus receiving him. the
intelligent and responsible people of the
south inform the country that race is
not so insuperable barrier to the rec
ognition Of worth as some suppose. The
blacks are at the same time shown
what their most benevolent white
neighbors consider the true model of
good citizenship, and the kind Of lead
ers that will most help them in their
struggles.

The Boston Advertiser says it is pre-
posterous for Great Britain to threaten
the Beers with war because of fran
chise restrictions when suffrage rights
are denied to proporSoAally many more
British subjects in Cape Colony and Ma
tai. Very likely. But if there is war,
the British won't justify it on account
of franchise restrictions, for as mat
ter of fact an agreement has been sub
stantially reached on that point The
real obstacle to peace is the old one of
suzerainty under the treaty of 1884
Great Britain insists upon her treaty
right to supervise the foreign relations
Of the South African republic, while the
Beers demand recognition as an entire
ly independent state. There's the
trouble, and without it the disagree
ments as to franchise and dynamite,
schools and taxes might be patched up
without threats of war and the hurry
ing of troops to Cape Town and Dur
BILE struggle for race supremacy in
South Africa. It is contest of civili-
cations as intolerant and hostile as We're
the Spanish and American in Cuba, and
even if the clash of arms is averted
there will be no rest till one or the other
civilization prevails. The lesson of his
tory is that the medieval and reaction
airy must give way TO the modern and
progressive, and that is what must hap
pen sooner or later in South Africa. 1t
is contrary to the nature of things that
British and Beers should divide SUI
premacy.

THE BAKER FAMILY.

10 the Editor of The Worcester Spy:
Last July, at the solicitation of COL
ored friends interested in the family of
FRAZIER b. Baker. the murdered post
master OF Lake City, S. c., L consent
eu 10 act as treasurer of fund to he
raised Tor the assistance Of the dis
dpied widow and the education of her
cnlloren. They were then living in
charleston, and it was proposed that
the money contributed should be in
trusted to leading banker of reputa-
tion and Judgment in that city, for
disbursement.
Hardly had the appeal been made,
When the scheme to bring the Baker
Iarnlly TO Boston developed and was
promptly executed under the lead of
Miss Jewett Believing such action in
]udlclous, and sensational l was forced

public distrust and the final abandon
ment of the original purpose, have been
MADE known through the columns of
the daily press.

The Filipinos have resumed business
at the old negotiation stand, but the
fact excites less interest than formerly
1t may be that the expected PROPOSE
ton will relate only to the release of
American prisoners, or there may be
even some talk of peace. 1t is not to be
forgotten that Aguinaldo is in a less
favorable position than he was a few
months ago, when he was STAYING off
fate, waiting for the rainy season to
bring rest for his troops, and a chance
for something to turn up. Now the
rainy season is coming to an end, and
soon the Filipinos must either surren-
der or resume the struggle against
much greater odds than they have
hitherto encountered. The uselessness
of waiting for something to turn up
would seem to have been conelusively
demonstrated. Aguinaldo cannot hope
for aid or comfort from any quarter.

1t is not the speech of William j.
Bryan, but of Bourke Cochran that
lives after the Chicago trust convention
and that is discussed seriously by news
papers of both parties. There is a whole
volume of political commentary in this
fact-from which the democracy might
profit if it would. 1t is worth while
to add that Mr. Cochran laid special
stress upon publicity as an effective
check upon the trusts, asserted that the
alleged peril and abuse were largely
imaginary, and did not insist that legis-
