Balfour and his unwilingness to trouble
about anything outside his own imme-
date circle make him impossible as a
premier, except on Robinson Crusoe's
island. The strong man Of the cabinet.
Mr. Chamberlain, will leave no stone un-
turned to compass his supreme ambition,
but he may find an unexpected obstacle
in the growing popular notion that the
war fastened the queen death. Besides,
there is still a strong element In the
Onionist party which will insist that
whoever may be prime minister, 1t shall
at any rate be a gentleman.
At this point there comes to our help
the second 1ll1nor to which we have al
luded--namely, that Lord CurZcn, owing
to the ill health CT his wife, will not
complete his term OF office in India.
Stranger things have happened than that
he should be promoted over the heads
OF men who have been much more prom
inently in the public eye. In Calcutta,
he has shown just the virtues that are
so sadly lacking in Downing street. lie
has accomplished the great exploit of
breaking through the red tape of the per.
r1enent officials and seeing, judging and
acting for himself. Further, he will re.
turn to England With the immense adj
vantage Of having had no share in the
political turmoil of tie last two years.
He is the one Conservative politician OF
the front rank who is untouched by the
accusations of laundering incompetence
that have been brought against the GOV
eminent by its supporters as We'll as by
it's opponents. If, them he should ar
rive in London at the right moment, he
may find the bail at his feet.

Two recent rumors, having no appar-
ont connection and originating a long dis
lance apart, are nevertheless worth
simultaneous study. The first suggests
that Lord Salisbury is anxious to retire
as soon as possible from pubic affairs.
It is generally believed that his own
physical infrmities. following on q se>

seek this release several months ago, and
that he was only kept in Office by a plr-
sonal appeal from Queen Victoria. After
so long and arduous' a career he may

further labors, and it is badly likely
that the now king will put pressure upon

the premiership. Ever since the first dis
asters in South Africa the nation has
been clamoring for strong leader. The
cry for drastic reform in government de-
partments, particularly at the war Office,
Is becoming irresistible. A demand fer

from every newspaper ard political plat

the difficulties of the situation abroad,

Of the book is in it's mine Of information,
wherein the topics are arranged in adj
mirable order for easy reference While
Illinois does not date back to the earlier
great events of the republic, yet her his
tory is unique, and we may say, without
disparagement to any, that it stands in
the front of the States of the great West.

pioneer in Western, civilization. and has
continued to hold it's advanced position
through all the years since Well may the
editogs emphasize ''its steadfast loyalty and
patriotism, the marvellous development of
it's resources, the number Of distinguished
statesmen, generals, and jurists 1t has furn-
ished to the government, and it's grand
record in the, exciting and perilous con-
Illinois that the anti-slavery battle was
fought and won, before the marshafled
hosts Of 1861 entered the field. There are
over 1900 biographical sketches of persons
who have been or still are prominent in
Illinois. They include those Of pioneers,
explorers, State officers, Congressman, other
public officers, and professional and business
men Of prominence. Besides the biogra-
phies there are brief sketches of all coun-
500 population. Then there are longer ar
ticles on many historic, educational, topo-
graphical, and other subjects. Upon the
whole, the work fully merits the dignity
of its title. The publishers are entitled to
the thanks of those interested in State
history for their enterprise in bringing out
SO complete and handsome volume.

It has always seemed very strange to
us to hear men sing the praise of Lin
coin as loudly as they do in these
annual celebrations of his birthday,
and then so continually and persist
emily act in manner exactly opposite
to that Of Lincoln. They value the
right to vote-and be, voted for-as
the capstone of their liberty and cit
izenship, yet they sit supinely-those
who are not personally responsible for
the enactment Of the unjust laws that
deprive one-seventh of the population
from their inalienable rights as citi-
zens-and allow these people to be
outraged and mistreated. in every way
imaginable without protest, and, thus,
hey themselves become particeps GRIM
inis. They tell in the most glowing
:erms Of the advantage and benefits
Of education, but throw all sorts of
obstacles in the way of the Afro
American who wishes to become edu-
Gated; and, when some of them sur
mount these obstacles and become edu-
Gated they deprive them Of the advan-
ages and benefits of education. There
are Afro-American graduates of Yale,
Harvard, Oberlin, Ann Arbor and num-
erous other institutions of learning,
who are today filling the most mental
positions because they cannot find OPP
portunities to put their acquired tai
ents to use in higher lines of BUSH
ness.
Since writing the foregoing we have
received clipping from an article
written by white man for one of
the Chicago dalies which is so apropos
that we give it as follows:
Notwithstanding all these draw
backs and the lack of incentive to OBJ
tain an education, it is both remarka-
BILE and praiseworthy that the colored
people are doing so much to educate
themselves. It seems as if it comes
as much from a real desire to obtain
knowledge for it's own sake as from
the more selfish object to obtain it
for the benefit that it can confer. What
inducements are there for a colored
person to spend much time and labor
in obtaining an education when he
finds that it will not unlock the doors
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1901-02-16

of so many remunerative occupations,
barred against him solely on account
Of his color? The vocations that are
open to him he can fill almost as
we'll if uneducated.
"A few who complete the high-school
course, supplemented by college or I'M
iversity training, may go, forth =, as
teachers of their own race or establish
themselves in business in the North
But for the majority of the boys and
girlswho complete the grammar grades
in the public schools there are watt
ing what occupations? For the girls,
positions as lady's maids, children's
nurse, hair dresser, or laundress; for
the boys positions as walters, porters,
or day laborers. No traction COM
pany in the city will employ them;
they cannot become clerks, bookkeep-
ers' or stenographers. A few: hold
government positions, and there are
five or six teachers out of the thous-
ands employed by our city"
Does not this substantiate the state
ments we made? We like to see peo-
pie practice what they preach and we
would like to- see these people who
speak of, and those who applaud the
speeches wherein the virtues of Lin
coin are extolled, emulate his ex-
ample. We want no special favors or
privileges, but only a white mans
chance among white men.
