WOES OF THE AGENT.
HIS Experience With Leaders Social
Flashes

Columbus, o., Special Numerous
are the obstacles that confront an agent
OF Negro newspaper. On receiving
his papers the agent starts out on HE
mission OF distribution. AS Is expected
he first hunts Negro leaders with the
confirmed idea of delivering a few
| copies to them, and If there be any left
the supposition is that they will be got
ten rid Of with difficulty among the
or binary people. But from my heart,
sorry am to say the conditions are
just TO the reverse Of the above sen
| tences.
| The first race leader you meet you
begin to speak to him of the qualifica-
tlons OF your paper. editor, con ntrlbutors
etc., and Of the sterling contents in the
present Issue, and close with the
words, "would you like to have
oopy?" Then begins the TRADE, thus:
Il know your paper 30 be good one
etc. used TO take it several years ago
but it did not come regularly and on
time, and when my subscription ran
out, the editor failed to notify me, but
continued to send the paper, and
because did not send money at once
abused me in letter, There is no bus
mess in COlOFed people, etc. The agent
sreaks in by saying the paper is on
solid foundation and its surety Of COM
ing is as clOckwork, and the publishers
and owners are men of responsibility
and long business integrity. Then be
gins again the leader by saying, 81
have no mouey." The agent offers to
give him the paper and collect fee the
next week, o. advance him a years, six
months or three months subscription.
Leader says, mo, don't care to do bus
mess that way. l have net read the
papers L already have" And finally
winds up with the words, "I have an
article to sell you for your paper Oh the
race problem" Thus you see, the way
of an agent of a Negro newspaper is
hard, and his path is not beset with
roses.
How any person, black or white, can
| lead represent, and control people
without being a regular subscriber to a
genuine race paper, Is a mystery TO
angels, and q problem to humanity;
and the fact that the Anglo-SaXOn fails
to know our progress and needs is that
he cOnsults Negro leaders who never
read Negro journal and know moth
ing of US one way nor the other out
side of their own district.
The drama entitled "Thirty Years of
Freedom" was played here for charl.
table purposes, by the elite of the race,
and it's rendition brought down a storm
of applause and cOmmendatiOn from
those who attended. The orchestral
arrangement was under the manage
ment of the efficient leader Prof.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-03-13

The Governors solicitude for the Industrial
welfare Of the State was suitably honored
Saturday evening by means of the dinner at
which he the guest of various important
commercial bodies 1t tribute which he
doubtless values highly, and those who Joined
in paying it would have been rewarded II his
pleasure had been their only motive. But they
have the additional satisfaction of feeling that
they have given impetus to the project
of canal development All the speeches natu-
rally bore reference TO that subject, and the
celebration can scarcely fail to promote the dis
cussion of one Of the most important proposals
ever submitted for public approval. 1t is ex-
ceedingly desirable that it should have such
result, for it must be acknowledged that the
report of the Governors Commission favoring
canal expansion at estimated cost of
$50, 000,0O0 has not hitherto received the atten-
ton which it deserves.
The fact is perhaps not surprising, for the
Legislature has done practically nothing TO
start the discussion, while many intelligent cfti-
zens who have always supported the general
policy of maintaining the canals shrink from
committing themselves either to or against
project of such ma gntude. Besides, the people,
having recently had the melancholy experience
of paying 50, 600 900 for canal work which is
less than half finished, and from which little or
no benefit has been derived, cannot be expected
TO embark with enthusiasm in an enterprise In
voving an investment seven times As large.
They must first be aroused to the necessity Of
an enormous outlay in defence Of the States
commercial supremacy, and convinced that this
specific plan is feasible and wise. The educa-
tional PROCESS is Indispensable, and 1t is not
likely to &e completed. The Governor
showed good sense and good feeling when he
said in reference to this point: "Above ALL the
'canal advocates must not display any fretful
'impatience because the project cannot be
adopted offhand.'' 1t certainly cannot be adopt
ed offhand. and it certainly ought not to be.
Some disappointment has been expressed be-
cause the Legislature shows no signs of taking
action of any kind on the report of the Special
Canal Commission but we are not sure that a
postponement of the question is to be regretted.
1t is universally admitted that the people will
have to pass upon It, it, indeed. 1t ever gets
far as to require a decisive settlement but it
appears TO us that they would not be ready to
decide it wisely next November, after Presi-
Dental campaign in which other issues had en-
crossed their attention. If We earnestly desired
TO see the proposition rejected we might be glad
TO have 1t submitted to popular vote this year,
but the interests concerned forbid a hasty YER
dict, which might be mistaken and which 1t
would be difficult, IL not impossible to reverse.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-03-13

city, at least in the opinion of a professional
confessor Of judgments like Mr. whalen would
be helpless. A little judicious work in the
Water Department creating water famine
and our city officials would have an excellent
excuse for carrying out the old deal and telling
the public TO go without water If they did not
like It, Unless the city Is absolutely free from
even the shadow of Ramapo monopoly to
serve as an excuse TO the johbers, its only
safety is In giving an absolute veto to the Con-
troller, and Mr.. Fallows should insist on the
other antiRamapo bills being passed as the
only condition OF assent to the modification of
his bill.
Another danger to be faced is premature ad-
journment, or rather delayed legislation. 1t is
for this reason that we urged the Governor to
come 10 the rescue of the city at en- early
stage of the attempt to strangle the bills Any
action on city bill taken within fifteen days
Of adjournment can be defeated by the Mayor
Even extra session could not do anything
more than pass II a new measure and send
il to the Mayor and wait his pleasure for fifteen
days or adjourn and leave it again at his mercy
If the lawmakers who have suddenly deve-
oped a devotion to the interests OF New-York
taxpayers want to be thought sincere they
should pass the three Ramapo bills at once.
Reconstruction will only convince people that
they are playing with the subject, trying to
quiet public indignation without really doing
what the public demands.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-03-13
RANAPO DANCERS.

he machines have apparently concluded that
II is not safe 10 defy public sentiment which
demands laws for the protection of this city
from the Ramapo danger. Politicians who are
likely TO be associated with any jobbery that is
going beginning TO put themselves on record
in favor of legislation against Ramapo The Gov
ernor has also caused it TO be known that relief
must not be denied. His power and popular in
dignation will probably force the reluctant
Kelsey, Aids and Nixon TO take action in the
Assembly, and their fellow servants of Mr. Plat
in the Senate to follow in their footsteps. The
Legislature will doubtless adjourn with some
sort OF Ramapo bills TO it's credit.
But ii is a sound rule to fear Greeks though
they bear gifts Mr. Nixon, who as Mr. Platts
man in a former Legislature secured for the
Ramapo company those enormous privileges,
greater than any other company, or, indeed,
than this city possesses, is probably as clever
now as he was then. And all the other friends
of RamapO in the Plat and Croker organiza-
tiOns will doubtless be fully alive TO all possible
schemes for preserving their valuable monopoly
of the sources of additional water supply for
this city, while appearing TO yield to the force
of public opinion. They will bear watching. 1t
is understood that Mr. FaIlowss bill concerning
the city's power OF making water contracts is
likely TO be reported with amendments striking
ont the requirement of the Controllers consent.
This viii be defended on the ground that n
double veto is anomalous and unwse, and that
the taxpayers are reasonably safeguarded by
placing the contracting power In the hands Of
two Boards in both Of which he has a vote.
This view may be urged with some sense and
much plaUsibility. 1t happens at the moment
that the Controller seems chief safeguard
against looters Of the city treasury, but it is
seldom wise 10 make laws comforting unusual
functions on a particular Office because of the
personality OF an incumbent of the moment.
There is also some force in the saying that the
Legislature cannot assume that a whole city
government is bound to do wrong. and that If
IT lodges discretion in two Boards like those of
Public improvements and Estimate and APP
portionment ii gives ample opportunity for
discussion.
This indeed might be true under certain con-
difIons If however. the bills giving the city
ample powers 10 condemn water rights and de-
priving the Ramapo company Of its outrageous
MONOPOLY ere not passed, the Fallows bill so
modified would be a mere mockery. The Mayor
and his associates would be able to say that
they had no choice but to buy Ramapo water.
The companv would have filed maps and pre-
~>uted all the available watersheds. and the
