life has a direct relation to immoral
ity.
FINALLY criminal statistics show
that where a criminal claims an occu-
patton 1t is usually that Of unskilled
labor or of an artisan. Only small
percent of the negroes are skilled labor
ers. and still fewer are in the profess
sional class. "The whites need him in
the agricultural work and offer but
little incentive for him to rise in this"
The agricultural class in the
North can in no sense be compared
with that in the South. The system
in the North is one Of small farms in
close proximity to educational infiuen-
ces, and the laborsr has a personal and
financial interest in the farm. The
negro laborers compare more nearly
with unskilled labor in the North-a
fiuctuating mass having no stable roots
or personal interest in the work except
remuneration.
Prof. Kellor prefaces her conclusions
By detailing the treatment of criminal
classes in Southern prisons. No effort
is made to study the criminal. He is a
financial burden to the state and is put
on the roads or other work that he may
also have financial value. The prison
system of the South Is far behind that
Of the North. 1t is something similar &c
that in vogue in Hawaii
or what value Is this study Of Prof
Kellor to Hawaii? II shows that by
the importation Of negroes from tho
South. Hawaii is adding to its body
polite the class of people who cOnsti'
tutc the great criminal class of the
South. The negro comes here to be
surrounded by conditions that go more
towards degrading than uplifting his
standards of life. The climate is tropi-
cal: tho soil is easily productive; there
Is little in plantation life to lead him
towards the use Of more nourishine
food than customary in his southern
home or towards higher degree OF
morality: the Iaborcr has not stable
roots or personal interest in his wort;
except remuneration. He cannot have
q married incentive to advance
under the present system Of farming
cane fields with labor gangs under
lunas.
Certainly the situation is not such a.
to cause the citizen Of Hawaii to be elat.

NEGRO AND cRIMINALITY.

Frances A. Kellor Of Chicago Univer-
sity gives in the current number of the
Arena a discussion of the Criminal
Negro" which will be read with deep
interest in this country since the negro
bids fair to so soon become an import
ant factor in our social and political
advancement or degradation. Prof.
Kellor has made study of criminOlogy
and makes the startling statement that
in the South, There is no denying the
fact that negro criminality is out of
proportion to the population, the pro-
portion being greater than among the
foreign whites The census gives this
fact without further analysis: but any
one who will consider the agencies that
sproduce crimes and will then study the
negroes position, will see the inevi-
tableness of this statement"
The first factor dealt with Is eli
mate. the southern climate is less
rigorous than the north; it predisposes
to idlenGss and statistics show that in
warm seasons of the year crimes Of
Righteousness and passion are more
numerous.
Second, the soil yields greater re-
turns for small expenditure of energy.
Necessity for active eXertion does noe
exist.
Third, the food used Is not Of guam
tty or quality to give the greatest
vitality; meals are irregular and i'll

The Morning Telegraph.

"There is cerainly no publication
that attracts readers more easily than
The New York Sunday Telegraph
and this agreeable state OF affairs is
due to it's clever knack of giving the
reader just the kind of news he wants
aud presenting it in just the manner
ne likes to read it. The Sunday
Telegraph's popularity is enhanced
by special features not to be found in
any other newspaper, and by supple
ment printed in colors on fine book
paper, the illustrations of which are
equal to those of the best magazines"
Such is the opinion ofthe Cleveland
Plain Dealer, and of every right
thinking person, capable of d iscern
ing the merits of a publication, VIII
has ever subscribed to the Telegraph.
Fulsome commentator is all right in
its way and perfectly justi6able in
cases of magazines, successful books
and high literary efforts, but when
q contemporary will of its own accord,
give such hattering testimonial to a
rival sheet, then that paper, both 10
point of it's literature and in the
quality of the news it presents must
be above the ordinary daily journal.

a specimen copy, by addressing The

modify, should include the Telegraph
