EDUCATING THE NEGRO.

A few days ago the Dispatch printed
the following in opening an article on
1.-THE white mans burden:
ut is Officially stated, says the Fairfax
Herald. that the negroes of Virginia an
nually receive SJ0OOO0 more from the Com
monwealth than they pay into the Trea-
sury When, continues the Herald. to
this is added the large criminal expense
incurred on account OF the negroes, some
idea may be formed as TO the extent Of
the white mans burden in Virginia"
A well-informed friend now calls our
attention to the fact that this statement
was somewhat misleading, in that the
$500, coo paid out annually on account Of
the negro in excess Of what he turns into
the Treasury includes negro criminal ex-
penses. the cost of taking care Of the ne
gro insane, and the cost Of running the
negro schools.
We cheerfully make the correction.
But the error does not materially affect
the salient and vital propositions involved
in cur article
II remains none the less true that
large part of the excess IS paid for the
education of the negro; that there Is no
evidence that education has raised the
negro In the scale Of morality and citi-
zeaship: hat the white man is getting
tired of and restless under the burden.
and that there is a growing sentiment in
the State in favor of the policy of white
taxes for white schools and negro taxes
for negro schools.
If the tendency in that direction is to
be checked, 1t can only be done by the
negroes themselves. Let them show that
education does improve them morally and

GETTING TOGETHER.

GETTING
The Danvnle Register has this to say
I'm commenting on our article urging dis
putting Democrats 10 get together" or,
81 that be impossible, submit their diff
ferences 10 the State Committee for adj
justment.
We like the true ring of this construc-
ton of Democratic duty. Obedience TO
regularly constituted party authority Is
the sine qua non of party success, and
the success OF the Democratic party in
Virginia means much to Nirginians.
There is a tribunal before which all RI
valries and differences can be settled
and have been settled in the past. 1t Is
the duty of all Democrats to abide its de-
cistons loyalty
And we can return the compliment.
We like the true ring Of the Registers
construction. It's note Is one that should
be echoed by every Democratic paper m
the State.
The ambitions and grievances, real or
fancied, of individual aspirants for honors
at the hands of the party are as nothrS
compared with preserving harmony in
the party and presenting an unbroken
fyvnt on election day. Every failure of
h1atviduals or factions TO contribute TO
party harmony and recognize the i'm
portance OF conserving party discipline
will play into the hands of the Repubn
can enemy not only in November, 1899.
but in November, 1900.
Ii is no less true now than II has ever
been that Democratic independence" in
Virginia is synonymous with Republican
Ism. The Republicans understand this
thoroughly. and signs are not wanting
that as heretofore they are encouraging
the Democratic factional fights.
The explanation of this policy is that
the Republicans, while aware that they
have little TO gain by making direct
ugats in many sections of the state, hope
20 strengthen gradually their party by
bringing about Generalization in the
Democratic ranks. Than the persistency
with which the enemy have chung 10 this
hope, there could be nothing stronger in
support OF the contention that It is the
duty OF the Democrats TO get together
at whatever sacrifice of personal feel
ing, interest, and ambition. Not less now
civilization and the guarantee Of contin-
we'd good government depend upon keep

"Resolved That the State Board Of
HeoIth consider the propriety OF quaran-
timing against human beings and domes-
tic animals with tuberculosis entering
the State"
The foregoing paragraph is the text OF
n preliminary resolution which has just
nassed the California Board of Health at
Sacramento, and which, IT is said, VIII
lead to an effort on CALIFORNIA; part TO
bottle up for its own citizens its air and
sunshine" BY Chicago physicians. this
stem In regarded as the initiative in
contemplated plan of a number of the
Wtstern States TO form joint quaran-
tine against affected persons who go west
for climatic treatment.
AS is well known, thousands OF persons
annually go TO California, Colorado. ana
other Western States in order to escape
death from pulmonary troubles. Indeed,
Colorado is said to owe no little Of its
revenues to the invalids who settle there
I'm order to reap the benefits from its
crisp. dry air. The State, in fact, IS a
natural sanitarium and a large percent
age of its population is made up of peo-
ple i'm the first and second stages of con-
sumption. At Colorado Springs 20 per
cent. of the citizens are exiles from other
parts of the United States. Chicago alone
is said to send 1000 persons to these dis
tant States.
IT is charged by those who favor the
proposed quarantine that the sick persons
who visit the States mentioned have done
no little TO spread disease. These physi-
clans assert that consumption can be
communicated from one person to an
other.
The secretary Of the Colorado board
insists that the action proposed by Cali
fornia has never been seriously consider
ed In his State. He thinks, however, that
the spread Of the disease could be greatly
minimized by proper care on the part OF
| individuals and health officials. History
| has proved" says the secretary, that
while in early days, before tuberculosis
patients began 10 come into the State.
there were no consumption cases of ma
| tive origin; now we have. on an average.
! two deaths month among persons who
| have contracted the disease here"
| The same official says: Above all
things. the authorities should test all
| dairies thoroughly and often. Next In
Importance is the disposition of expec-
| torations. They should be buried or
burned wherever possible. believe that
a rule restricting the importation OF tu-
! berculosis is unnecessary"
Many Of the Chicago physicians think
! the action of California will be justfia-
bic. and that other States should initiate
her. though nearly all agree that climatic
treatment accomplishes nothing for con-
sumptives. All concur in the opinion that
sufferers from pulmonary troubles should
| be isolated

The Ambulance Not Called.

To the Editor o. the Dispatch:
The article in your Sundays edition
signed Joseph Booth Brown" IS not only
insidioUs, but miseading-it implies in the
most terse manner that he was left at
Elba Station, after falling from a moving
car. in a terrible condition, out of his
senses with CHASTITY wounds and broken
ribs, unattended and the ambulance de-
partment and the people Of Richmond IN
different TO his condition. Now, IL would
seemingly be unnecessary to answer the
article. as the work OF the ambulance,
and the worldwide reputation for I'M
questIHled hospitality and tender solicit
tude Of the people Of Richmond for the
sick and distressed, is 50 well known; but
i deem it proper to state that the ambu-
lance was not called. Although IL had
seven calls on the 18th. If it had been
summonsed it would have responded as
speedily al possible, and would have
gladly rendered assistance. Our surgeon,
DR.. John G.. Treyilian, and resident ply
sicians Drs. Cunningham and G0ode, are
attentive and efficient, and are on the
alert night and day to respond to calls,
as our last months report will fully
show-l66 calls. the largest ever attain
ed-which embraced attempted suicides,
accidents, cutting scrapes. shooting. &c.
1t was the gentleman's misfortune that,
in some mysterious manner the ambu-
lance was not called. and not to have re-
ceived the full benefit OF an efficient am
bulance department. fostered and sup
piled by the large heart of a city second
TO none in the world. that throbs and pull
safes in genuine sympathy for all who
are in want or distress, and especially
for one who was bruised and bleeding by
the way. Respectfully,

The river-bed. where exposed SHOWS
the effects OF drills and blasts. in PLACES
which excite the wonder Of the uninform-

years ago, some OF the rocks were plSs'-
ed 10 give freer outlet TO the water ais

may be. too, that some Of these drill
holes were made in the construction OF

piaced upon piers. but upon timbers boi,-
ed TO the rocks. In due course the Hoods
came, and swept it away.
other OF the dril-holes we may attrib-

the falls. That was at a time when
James river fairly teemed with fish. and
in their migrations from the upper James
to Tfdewater, many Of them were swept

the people Of Richmond.
Along with the wonders OF Nature
which are revealed by the dry bed oil the
river in the locality mentioned comes

being done there. The process of "elec-
trifying James river" is a great and slo-
rious undertaking, and we believe VIII

which is to ill the enlarged Haxall-Mih

In the course OF year that part Of the

present an appearance altogether differ

Oldest inhabtant. An immediate effect
of all this enterprise is the Distribution
of a vast deal Of money to workingmen'
and a prospective result will be to give
Richmond vast advantages as a manu-
featuring centre.
