cord to others. They actually seem
to believe it is not expected of them.
Why, the Lord only knows, for they
cannot satisfactorily explain, but it
seems to be an unwritten law among
them. 1t has time and time again
been shown conclusively that there is
no difference between the, brains. of
the. blacks and the whites. That is
the work produced by the brains of
black men has equalled that of white
men under similar circumstances, and
along similar lines. This country has
produced black astronomer, a num-
Der of black inventors, authors, poets,
mechanics, farmers, musicians, ora
tors, scholars, teachers, preachers, ar
lists, doctors, lawyers, etc., etc. eve
mean blacks with no visible admix-
ture of Caucasian blood. Now, it
must be remembered that the whites
who first came to this country years
and years ago came voluntarily and
for the purpose of being free, while
the blacks were first brought here by
force as slaves. The whites came,
representing the highest type of man
hood, the blacks were poor, benighted
heather, stolen from their native land
by bad white men. The blacks were
kept in worse than Egyptian slavery
for $50 years. They were then turned
loose in the land they had helped to
'develOpe and make blossom like the
rose, with nothing but the boon of
freedom as their heritage. Yet, it is
asserted on all sides that no people
ever made such progress as they have
made in the thirty odd years they
have been free.
They now pay taxes upon 1915, 00O,-
900 worth of property, have hundreds
of colleges, and professional schools
from which have graduated an. aver
age of 1000 for each year they have
been free, and own and control about
300 newspapers and periodicals.
Fully one-half of the Afro-Amer-
leans are of mixed blood and many
thousands are so fair they cannot be
distinguished from pure whites, and
thousands are living, moving and hav-
ing their being as Caucasians, and no
one is damaged in the least, although
the mere suspicion that one has the
most infinitissimal portion of black
blood in his makeup would cause him
to be as obnoxious as though black as
the hinges of hades and he is at once
thought to possess the characteristics
of native, of Congo. How inconsist-
emit! AS Bobby Burns says: "A
mans man. for a. that" But they
won't have it.. True, there is always
room at the top and few exceptions
to the rule get up there, but the mass
IS have little or no show.
For years and years the NEGRO
Problem has been the white mans
burden he has tried all sorts of round
about ways to solve the problem in
stead of trying the right one-'''Do un-
% others as We would others should
10 unto you" Or, in other words,
give man; a mans chance. Don't |
ct mans color weigh for or against
him, measure him by a mans stand !
lrd, let him rise or fall, sink or swim,
survive or perish according to his
Utility, not according to the color of |
lis skin or, the texture of his hair |
Neither he nor you can change one or
he other, yet all must live in this
ountry together, for it is impossible
o separate us; so, why not live to-
ether in peace and harmony, each
etermining to give the other mans
nance.

CHOOSING A PROFESSION.
Ex.Secretary b. r. Tracy Upon Vocation
in Life. Mistakes Made.

Every day we meet young men OF In
dustry, good habits and fair intellectual
powers, who havs made q mistake in
choosing their business or profession. We
frequently meet in the profession of the
law men who have studied law and who
are seeking to practice their profession to
whom any considerable degree of success
Is impossible. Yet there is no reason
to doubt that had these men chosen some
other calling or profession they might
have had successful careers. 1t by no
means follows that q man who can not
succeed at the law would he unable TO
succeed in the medical profession, or in
the clerical profession or as an engineer
or architect, or business man, or as a
great writer or journalist.
The first and highest duty, therefore
of the parent or guardian, or ore who
has charge of young mans instruction
and education, should be to ascertain
whether he has a bent for any particular
business or profession. If the young man
shows ability in any particular direction,
and especially If he manifests love for
such work, that is the calling which he
should pursue.
A great majority of our young men
today have not been compelled to realize
from their early childhood that they must
make their own carers for themselves
without aid and without assistance.
Few boys nowadays work their way
through college. In most cases they are
given collegiate education by their par
ents, and are then sent by their parents
through law school. Then they are as
sisted to position in law office. where
they are assisted to business. Unfortu
nately fer themselves. they have never
been compelled to make their iway for
themselves. and they lack to some extent
the strength and. character and the self
reliance that arises from consciousness
from early youth that their careers must
depend upon themselves, unaided and
alone. The Gentlewoman.

CENSUS QUESTIONS.
(Leslie's Weekly

The schedules for 1900 are under five
heads: The individual, corporations, ag-
riculture, mortality, and special. The
questions to be put to individuals are:
Your age, copjugal conditions, place of
birth, parents birthplace, alien or natu-
rallied, number of years in the United
States, occupation, months employed,
literacy, school attendance, and ownership
of property. Every person over 20 years
is considered a responsible representative
to answer fol each and every member of
his family. The above questions are the
ones you will be compelled to answer.
If any further questions are put to you,
you may safely ignore them. If you are
out, your neighbor next door must an.
swer for you, as he is supposed to know
all about you. Refusal to answer or any
falsificat ton of facts Is a mismeanor, for
which the guilty one will be fined $l0c;
an alternative punishment, however. pro.
viding for the possibility of the delin-
quent not hapepning to have the ready
money, is not mentioned.
The schedule under individual" is
rather modest, while inquiries pertaining
to manufacturing establishments are pre-
tentions. Here are the questions that will
make perjurers of many an honest mer-
chant or tradesman: Name and charact-
er of organization; whether individual or
cooperative, or other form; character Of
business and kind of goods manufac.
tured amount Of capital invested; firm
members, co-partners or officers; amounts
of their salaries; number of employees;
amount of wages; quantity and cost OF
miscellaneous expenses; quantity and
value of products; character and quality
of power used; character and number OF
machines employed. The president, treas
urer, secretary, agent, or any direct Off
Ger of any corporation, business, factory,
or firm Is answernble for all. And any
refusal to answer, or any false statement,
is an offense for which the culprit must
pay as$1O, 0O0 fine or go to prison for one
year, or both.
The question relating to agriculture in
clude: Name and occupant of each farm
tenure; acreage; value of farm and farm
Implements; average quantity and value
of different products; number and value
of live stock. Statistics will also be
gathered relating to special classes, in
GLIDING the insane; the feeble minded i;
crime; deaf, dumb, and blind; pauper-
ism, juvenile delinquents, and inmates of
reformatories and benevolent institu-
tons; and last of all, in the cities, so.
cial statistics relating to pablo indebted
ness, valuation, taxation, and expsndi-
lures; to reli gious' bodies. to electric light
and power, to the telephone aud tele-
graph business, and to transportation
including steamboats,, express facilities,
and street railways.
