capable of development, it will
eventually make that problem
one of industrial competition.
Industrial competition between
the races is certainly not de-
stable. 1t would only make the
conflict Of the races more dan
gerous if the innate prejudice
of the white man should be in
creased by the daily struggle for
bread in competition with the
negro This competition has
been in existence ever since
emancipation and before, but
on q very small scale The negro
has been an unskilled laborer
while the white man has done
the work requiring intelligence
and training, and there has been
no antagonism But should the
negro become qualified to take
the white mans place the situa-
ton would be more serious. The
greater natural ability of the
white man assures his success
over the other if he has equally
good training, but that is not
what he is receiving. The negro
is getting the industrial train
ing while the white man of the
future studies the classics or
nothing at all.
Compared with the other
southern States South Carolina
is doing her part very well in
this matter. At Clemson the
boys of this State have the op-
portunitY to secure scientific
knowledge of the mechanical
arts, agriculture and the textile
industry: yet the great need is
hot for this class of Industrial
instruction but for the more
general education along the
rudimentary industrial lines.
For this reason industrial in
struction in the common and
high schools should be encour-
aged so that the white boys will
be capable of competing with
the negroes-if it comes to that.
Butt it is not only in industrial
education that the negroes are
gaining an advantage over the
superior race. The negroes are
seeking education along all
lines. They are sending their
children to school while the
white children are kept hard at
work in the field and the factory.
The negro still wants to be n
voter and he is now striving to
qualify himself and his children
under the restrictions which are
intended to keep him out of
politics. The white man is
more apathetic.
All this may appear to be an
admission of the possible in
feriority of the white man to
the negro in certain important
respects. Be that as it may. 1t
is a condition not a theory that
confronts. To relieve that con-
dition we must take the white
children out Of the fields and
factories and put them to school.
They must be educated-educa-
ted to read, to write, to 'cipher'
to word. We must supply the
schools and teachers and, if
need be, compel parents to send

The Ruby Branch Being Opened

A work train in charge of Asst.
Roadmaster John Clifford came in
Sunday and the 25 hands are at
work clearing the Ruby branch of
the D. g.. R. G.. With the excep-
ton of the snow upon the track,
the road is not in such bad condi-
ton as it has been at previous
times and it will probably be ready
for traffic in from two to three
weeks, providing the weather is
not unfavorable. The resumption
of operations at the Ruby coal
mine and breaker will mean the
employment of about $50 men and
a daily shipment of 400 tons of
coal. 1t also means considerable
addition to the prosperity of this
section. The coal breaking plant
at Ruby is the largest in the west
and the quality of the anthracite
coal produced is not surpassed,
even by Pennsylvania productions.

In reply to Saverio Vecchio's
communication in Roma the PILOT
will say that under no circumstan-
ces does it favor lynching. There
are laws covering all criminal Of
fenses and they should be respected
by every good citizen. No person
has any right to attempt to take
the law into his own hands and mete
out punishment to any offender.
1t is a matter of regret that some
of our citizens carried things too
far the night of the Rollo trouble
by threatening lynching. This
was decidedly wrong, and had it
taken place would have been in
violation of the law and akin to
anarchy. Because he was a for
eigner was no reason why his life
should have been forfeited. We
have had business dealings with
the Italian element of Crested
Butte for seven years and have
found them to be fair and honest
boys. We hold no i'll feeling
against any of them, and desire to
see them treated right. They make
good citizens after becoming Amer
icanized, and the percentage of
bad men among them is no greater
than among any other nationality.
These boys are law-abiding and
feel injured because the wrongful
report was circulated that some of
them abetted Rollo.
