Havana. Aug. S.-Genclal Juan Isl

bans and four natives of san Domingo,
has left here probably for the Domini-
can Republic. 1t has not been ascer-
tanned how the party sailed: but If. as
it is thought. they went on one OF the
Herrera line steamers for the north
coast. expecting To obtain Il schooner
mt Nuevtas, they probably will be ar
rested or prevented from continuing
their journey. General .Iimincz said
he was i'll Saturday. but on account of
the many visitors whom he received
later. it was believed that some move
mcnt was on foot. one thing IS GER
tain. and that is that he has gone. tax
ing his baggage with him. as did also
his companions. The authorities are
making Il close investigation in order
to discover in which direction the

The Separate Car Bill,

At meeting of the FORSYTH
County White Mans Club, held in
Winston last week, the following
resolutions introduced by Eugene T.
Albea were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, There are now pending be-
fore the Legislature, bills, requiring the
Railroads OF our State, to provide sepa-
rate coaches or compartments on their
trains for the two races, which is in
accord with our motto, that the line of
distinction should be drawn in all public
places; and
WHEREAS, While we wish to deal
legally, justly and fairly with all cor
poratlons, yet in so doing wish to pro-
tect our citizens upon the highways of
transportation, as we'll as in other public
gatherings; therefore be it
Resolved, That it is the desire of this.
Forsyth County White Mans Club, that
we request the Democratic members of
both Houses OF our Legislature, to give
to our citizens such a law, without in
creasing the cost OF transportation.
Resolved, That two of the bills which
have been introduced, are in substance
indentical with the law of Tennessee, and
there have been decided constitutional
by the Higher Court; therefore,
Resolred, That We annex COPY of the
above mentioned law to these resolu-
tons and have the Secretary to forward
the same to our representatives at
Raleigh, asking them to use their in
fiuence to have this good law become
effective as early as possible, consistent
with all interests.

A CRYING NEED.

1t is both a dctrimcnt and Il dis
grace to the State Of North Carolina
that rnfnrnn"t o"v fnr yOuthful
criminals has not been established
before this. What is best to do with
that class of our youth who by evil
tendencies or evil associations are
growing up as criminals is aqueStion
on which all who have studied the
matter are not agreed, but we find
them all of one mind in one thing.
and that is that Il hideous wrong is
committed when young men are
locked up in the same prison and
forced to mix with men who have
been criminals all their lives
1t is to be hoped that some wise
and bcneiiccnt legislation will be at
once enacted by the General Assem-
bly.
BY all means do what you can you
gentlemen who are now making our
laws, TO help those who, although fall

THE RACE QUESTION
And Taxation For Public Educa-
ton.
Communicated }

The sentimentalism which seems to
have been developed, in different sections
of the State, regarding curtalments of
the public shoot fund, to be awarded for
the benefit of the negro, promises to be-
come a fruitful theme for discussion.
Those who favor the curtailment think
the sentiment misplaced from the fact,
that for 80 years, the white mans prop
erty has been taxed, not only to educate
his own, but the negrO's children, and
the latter has for years received more
than his propOrtionate part. 1t is esti-
mated that the white man pays 80 per
cent. of this tax. Apart from State aid
the negro receives exclusively material
aid from Northern sources. The churches
North erect and equip comfortable
buildings, hire and pay competent teach
ers, and furnish tuition free. The white
children are entirely dependent upon
State aid, and often it happens, from
pressing circumstances of the parents,
their children receive but little benefit,
though the parent pays the school tax.
There is no State, according to it's
ability, that has done more to educate
and elevate the negro than North Caro-
lima, and in no State has the negro re-
ceiyed greater consideration. How have
tiltSt Id" vi , bttli dppi tNidttu utIt iS
not an instance on record, since 1868,
bat what he has allied himself to any
and every party opposing, and striving
to overthrow the very men who have
ever been his benefactors. Not satisfied
with the benefits received under fusion he
not only aspired to control the negro,
but also white schools. The great mis-
take the white people have made in
North Carolina is innOt letting the negro
understand this country was the white
mans before the negro ever placed foot
upon its soil. 1t is his now and he in
tends hereafter to control it's destinies re-
CARELESS of negroes and their irresponsi-
BILE allies.
Yes, the white man can afford to be
generous as well as Just, but it is his
province to control every department of
the State and this he intends to do. And
while willing to aid the negro in the edu-
cation of his children, he is not willing
to let him have, as heretofore, more than
his proportionate part. JUSTICE.

A QUESTION OF TITLE.

In arguing against adopting the
proposed treaty with Spain Senator
Mason said:
I'VE are asked to acquire the Phil
ippines by treaty-by treaty with a
people who have no more right to
cede the territory than the devil had
to offer to the Saviour all the land in
sight OF the mountain height; he did
not possess even tax title to it"
Why did not Spain have right to
cede this territory? Was it not hers
by title? Did the fact that the Fill
pinos were in revolt against Spanish
authority relinquish the mother coun-
try's right or title to the territory ,
We think not
And yet we are opposed to acquir-
ing the Philippines. but not on the
grounds above mentioned. The
proper thing to do is to ratifv the
treaty and then settle the Philippine
question afterward. The Filipinos
would doubtless be glad to reimburse
the United States for the $50. 900. 900
we agreed to pay Spain and let us have
a coaling station and make other rea-
sonable acceSsions beside.
