conference shave come and vent and
reckon the earth will continue to re-
volvs on its own axis as usual. There
was only one speech made before that
body Of the assembled wisdom OF the
South that deserves to be noticed Oh
characterized as statesmanlike and
aDle-that speech was made by Gov
MaeCorkls Of West Virginia Ex Sesre
tary of the Navy. Hilary A Herbert's
speech on the opening OF the con
fsrence, ,as literary effort. makes mighty
fine reading, but 1t is woefully lacking
Ia logic and sound reasoning. Bourke
CO3kran's promised deIiverance Ia op-
position 30 the XVIII Amendment
won't stand fire. The New York Sun
has already knocked it all to pieces
edit0rially, and 10 the language of di
pl0maey has characterised this bril-
liant, but misguided Irishm&u as an
ass. "If you see ie Ia the Sun It's so.''
There's @ hum 0rous side to this 600
ference and the more [ study it, the
more smile as think Of the mental
gymnastics Of the staid aud solemn
white men there assembled, to do" the
Negro, whom their fathers made all
that he is not, ia their virtuous and
holy eyes, smile At the Inconsistency
aHd the jsckassic 81 persisseney OF those
conscience stricken white men Of the
South in measuring the Negro by the
same standards they would measure
men who haVe always been free and al
ways had opportunities for mental and
moral growth and develop ment. I
smile when I remember what Taeitus
wrote about the ignorance, stupidity
aud barbarous manners Of the ancestors
of these white men Of the Ssuth and
North, whom it took centuries to eivI.
lie and refine and make respectable,
and Who now hold up their hands in
holy horror because the Negro with
only 80 years OF opportunity ian't a
paragon Of wisdom, virtue or knowl'
edge. This Negro, the product Of their
civilization aud christianity after ESQ
years tutelage in their sehoUl of ethics
and morals Is now being judged by the
sons Of the men who ate sour grapes,
and put their ohlldren's teeth on edge.
These orators OF the South in discuss.
ing the problem, haven't touched the
problem once. They haven't dared to
touch it. They have been talking at IL,
over 1t, around it and under 1t. but
none of them have hit the bulbs eye,

Herbert say In SO many words: "We of
the South are the residuary legatees Of
q century 9r dishonor, the work Of our
fathers il depriving the Negro race OF
ga equal chance In life. Our fathers
spoiled their women, and broke the
spirit of their men, and our blood is
mingled with theirs. They are flesh
Of our fl ssh, bone OF our bone. We
have Wronged them and we are still
wronging them, ia refusing to treat
them fairly, to give them equal ehsnee
in life aud to help them rise and to
live down the infamy bequ sathed to
them by our forbears. NE are all

our children the same social corruption
and impurlty which wrought destrue
ton to tAe social fabric in the old days
ana polluted the stream and tainted
the blood of the srIstocracy OF the
2uth. Let us now be honest to our.
selves, honest with the Negro who Is
closer TO Us by ties OF blood and eea.
sanguinity than any alien race. We
have been the aggressors, we are the
real criminals, We were the origic al
rapists sAd upon our head be all the
blood that has been spilled during a
Century of shame and dishonor and in
which we have sought to make this
race responsible for the crimes we
taught 1t to commit. The Negro has
been unjustiy accused at the bar of
public opinion we have taken q mean
and cowardly advantage Of him. We
have held, aud are still holding him up
TO soorn and Tidieule and contempt for
crimes which We have been teaching
him for 300 years. We are the only
original libeTtines and polygamists on
the Western Hemisphere. Our fathers
sowed the seed when slavery became a
fixture on this continent. They had
white wives and Negro eoncubines and
mistresses and through the latter gave
our blood to these whose future we are
met to discuss. Indignation over rhe
condition which oonfrOnts Us, ill be-
comes us. PenItenes, remorse. shame,
humiliation and disgrace should be the
feelings which We ought 20 experience
during the sessions OF this conference.
Let no man here presenb take to his
soul the uuotiOR that he Is better than
other men--better than the Negro. Fer
TO this patient, plodding, toiling, un'
90 npIaining Negro the white men of
the South owe more for their advan'
tsges in material and moral progress
shan to any other raes on earth. The
bulk of our wealth has It's foundation
Ia the unrequited toll OF the black man
for we have robbed him. 5ysteDat atically,
and by law, both before and since
his emancipation from bondage. Our
boasted morality, intelligence, virtues
and civilization represent two hundred
and fifty years of opportunity of which
we have denied this people. We have
wasted them and built upon Ehe ruins
of their misf Jrtunes and disadvantages.
Every southern white boy and girl
whom We have educated owe their edu'
cation to black boy and giIl whom
we have deprived ofequal chances and
opportunities for acquiring knowledge
and of an equal chaLos when acquired
ia spite of as of developing the highest
and best In them. This gentlemen is
the kernel in the problem we are met
to disens and to solve with our multi
piled wisdom aud intelligence" This
kind OF speeeh would have better be-
come Sssretary Herbert than the plati'
tudineus and 80 phistieal jumble which
he emitted on the opening Of tne con
ference, because is contains more real
facts, more truth, more reason, more
consistency. But he didn't make this
kind Of a speeoh and mCrs's the pity.
Before the problem is solved some great
white man ab the South will make just
such q speech and awake the sleeping

For several years the culm piles of
an early date have been remined as
1t were. Heavy rains and melting
SHOWS have washed coal particles from
these into the creeks and bitches and
from these they have been swept into
the rivers. Graphing for this coal in
the rivers has become a considerable
industry. This coal has been washed
fifty miles down rivers. and particles
are found in the Susquehanna river
more than 100 miles from the mines.
In some of these tributaries of the
Susquehanna, under favorable circum
stances, coal-grapplers frequently take
out MS much as five tons a day to
man. This coal has not deteriorated
and It is washed free from dust by
reason of Its immersion.
