NEGRO EDUCATION A FAILURE
In his report to be submitted TO the
legislature next month Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction Southall
take the ground that the education
OF the negro IN the South has been IA
failure. The superintendent saws
"the negro does not receive education
sufficient under the present system to
enable him to earn livelihood with
out manual labor. Yet he soon
thinks he knows enough to live with
out working with his hands. The
result Is he becomes % criminal or =
vagabond." This same view is taken
by Supt Frissel. of the Hampton
School. in his last annual report.
The report will recommend that
manual training he introduced into
the negro schools in Virginia.

The Secretary of the Treasury,
who made the National City Bank of
New York the medium for the
transfer of the 100000 to Spain
for the purchase of the Philippines.
and has selected that same bank as
the depository of the internal revenue
money, says it is acting only as the
distributing agent of the government.
10 relieve the money stringency, "
he says" we decided to allow inter
nal revenue receipts, amounting to
about one million dollars d day, to be
paid into the banks that had applied
for the privilege and which had de-
posted bonds as security for the
amounts they proposed to handle
daily. Instead Of receiving the in.
ternal revenue at the fifty places des-
ighated for the purpose. we now re.
ceive them at sixtysix banks in
cwenty-one States. The bonds de
posted amount from $4,000 to 81.
100000, which latter amount was
deposited by the National City Bank.
1t is the only bank which deposited
enough money to secure the govern
ment in the event that the money
shonld not be distributed the first
day. The twenty-One States repre-
santed are Alabama, Connecticut, In

Tonnage Tax Bill.

/ tonnage Tax Bill, taxing Fertilizers
sold in this State 10 cents per ton,
the revenue from which is to be used
for advancing the agricultural inter
ests, through the Commissioner of
Agriculture, we notice in a Richmond
exchange that manufacturers of fer
tilizers are flooding the Department
of Agriculture with analyses of their
fertilizers This is in accordance
with a provision of the law which
compels such detailed statement of
the composition of their product, as
condition of being registered. Only
registered dealers are permitted to
sell in the State, and the Commits
sioner is directed not to register any
whose fertilizers do not measure up
to proper standard of quality. In
one day about twenty five dealers
egistered-heuce the Indications are
that Commissioner Koiner now will
have funds sufficient to make the
Department useful and helpful to
the farmers. Throughout the State
there seems TO be general satisfaction
and approval of the passage of the
bill, and so far as we have heard ex
preSSions from the farmers of Clarke
the action of our representatives,. Sen
ator Gold and Delegate Warthen in
voting for it Is commeudsble.
In this connection we believe We
are warranted in saying that just
seuse of appreciation on the part of
agriculturiSts in every section of the
State will 20 ont to Commissioner
Koiner for his interchangeable efforts in
behalf of the passage Of this bill, for
no doubt his representation in his
able report to the Governor of the
needs of legislation in the line of
which the bill is the elimination. in
huenced the Governor to recommend
the tax aud the members of the
Legislature to give the subject such
early consideration and prompt &C
ton.
In the light of these facts, now
that he will have means to work with.
it is but just to the Commissioner to
believe he is ambitious to push our
State TO the front, where she rightly
belongs, in all that pertains to Agri-
culture. Commissioner koluer eyi.
IDENTIFY Is the right man in the right
place. He is an Augusta county man
with a practical experience of TWEEN
ty five wears as a farmer, and all his
sympathies it must be concluded are
with his fellow farmers.
1t would be as unwise as il would
be impolitic and detrimental to make
any changes in the present Depart
ment. We refer to the subject be-
cause we have heard some intimations
that few politicians in the Legisla-
ture want to change the appointment
of Commissioner aud the Board of
Agriculture from the Governor. and
elect them by the Legislature. This
would make the Department "A polit-
zeal one, and destroy its usefulness.
We believe, in this opinion, We voice
the sentiment of the farmers of Vir-
ginia, and the Legislature would do
well to let politics severely alone in
the management of the Agricultural
Department of the State.
