THE NEGRO PROBLEM
hooker Washington Discusses 1t

Booker r. Washington and his wifi
were the guests Of honor mt dinner
given by theSocial Reform Club Tuesday
night in New York.
"ln dealing with the negro race, - said
Washington in speech eve must bear
in mind thatit came from land where
there was no need for labor. Then for
$50 years il was forced TO labor in way
little calculated To give it love for work.
| believe that in slavery the solution OF
the problem was really laid and believe
il we could have taken il upiust where il
was left off when slavery ended it would
have been better for our people. But
for $50 years the negro had been taught
to be ashamed of work and his idea of
freedom was to escape work. For 2JO
years he had been working and he thought
it would do no harm to take a few years
rest He felt that to hold Office was the
highest thing he could attain, and he
put more emphasis on the political than
the industrial side OF life. lie thought
the object Of education was to put him
in n position where he would not have to
work. Our people began empty-handed.
This led to the crop mortgage system.
That has eaten into their morals as well
as the industrial life Of the race. Under
that system have known the negro to
pay or to attempt to pay as much as
POO per cent. on what he had borrowed .

Calls A0uinaldo a Genius

Hon. W. J. Bryanin his leading article
in Fridays Commoner says:
1T il difficult to say what will be the
immediate effect, but it is more than pos
sible that it will hasten the end Of hostil-
tiles. When the Administration comes
to deal with its distinguished prisoner it
will be compelled to decide whether it is
dealing with a rebelious subject or with
n foreigner who owes no allegiance to
this Government.
Mr.. Bryan regards Aguinaldo as a mil
itary genius and fit leader of his peo-
pie. He concludes with the following
paragraph on the equestiOn ofimperialism:
"The question ofimperialism is not set
tied by the imprisonment of the com
mander-in-chief Of the native forces; nor
will it be settled by the surrender OF all
who are in arms. II the Filipino, fail in
their appeal to force there is still left an
appeal to the American conscience. The
Republicans have taken refuge behind the
fact that war existed and have tried to
cry down criticism as unpatriotic. They
have asked, How can we treat with
people who are shooting down our sold
iers?' Peace will multiply the embar-
rassments Of the Administration, for it
cannot long conceal the real character Of
the civil government which is to be i'm
posed upon the Filipinos."
Mr.. Bryan declined to discuss the news
from ,,.aniIa that Aguinaldo had taken
the oath ofallegiance.

JOHN BROWNS TRIAL.
One of the Two Survivors of the Trial Jury.

Living in Fauquier county, near Della
plane. a astation on the Manassas Division
of the Southern Railway, is an old gen
tleman who can be rightly termed a ma
tional celebrity. For years he has lived
in practical obscurity, and is known to
very few, even among his own country
men. That cruel master Adversely
soon relegates to the rear and obliterates
from the public mind those who have be-
come so unfortunate as to become its vie
tins. Such is the case with this honor
able old gentleman, and while notblessed
with an abundance of this world 'sgOCds,
yet he lives comfortably and is following
his trade, that Of wheelright, for his
support. 1t is interesting to know that
the subject of this sketch is William a.
Martin, one of the two surviving mem
bers of the John Brown jury, and when it
is recalled what stirring events followed
this memorable trial. this old hero can
well take his place among those whose
names have been made immortal. He is
now in his list year, and for a man OF
his age his faculties are well preserved.
His recollections of the trial are very
vived, and it is exceedingly interesting
to hear him give in detail his connection
with it. Forty years have passed since
that time, yet, to him, he says, lit seems
but as yesterday Louisa News.

Vast Difference.
(Pittsburg Dispatch.)

One hundred years ago one-sixth oftht
people of the United States were slaves
To-day there is perfect freedom in every
corner of our possessions, with the prob.
able exception Of Sulu. We have more
than forty branches ofmanufacturei in the
United States which each turn out. an
nually, more than $50, 900, 900 worth OF
products, and Of the forty, five turn out
over $500, 100000 each. Our Agricul-
ture. which amounted to a hundred
millions 100 years ago, is now rapidr,
approaching $4,000, 100000 a yealy
and the value OF the farms Of thecountry
is almost $15,0O0,000,000. In 1900,
the largest fortune in the United States
was $250,00O. To-day there are several
fortunes of more than 100000, 900.
In 1900, the settled area consisted OF
3O5. .7OS square miles. To-day it Is ever
10000. 600 square miles.

Aguinaldo Said to Have Made Propos'
ais to the Government.

A Washington dispatch to the New
York Herald says:
important proposals contemplating
the surrender of all the revolutionary
forces in the Philippines have been made
to this Government by Aguinaldo. These
proposals were stated in the dispatch re
ceiyed from Gen. Macarthur, which also
contained the news that the Filipino
leader had subscribed to the oath OF al
legiance to the United States.
"Aguinaldo's proposals were brought
before the Cabinet meeting and instruc-
tions in reply to them were sent by Secre
tary Root. The President does not in
tend to bargain with Aguinaldo. He is
a prisoner of war. Ii he will exert his in
huence the United States will welcome
his aid and will consider his conduct
when determining his future. He is still
liable to court-martial. This possibility
will be held over him until he ceases to be
OF any use."

lujas and harping symphonies AZ hnsnot

Christ and sang their Gloria in Excelsis. "

Says the Macon Telegraph: "We trust
that the time il coming when a solid
South will no longer be necessary and
when southern interests will be no more
distinct from the interests of the country
than are western oreastern interests, but
nevertheless the prospect OF a single Sec
ton of the South being represented at
Washington by ten Senator's instead of
two, as at present, is an inspiring and
agreeable one.
"Such prospect is opened by the great
and rapid growth of Texas, for, be it re-
membered, that under the terms OF the
resolution of Congress admitting Texas
into the Union the right to divide that
enormous Commonwealth into five States
was accorded"
