alley he very frequently wins. This
has been demonstrated many scores
OF times in the civil examinations, in
oratoricaf contests, athletics, etc. And
now comes the news that in the Grand
Prix, an international open kilometer
race (about 1903 yards) held at
Roubaix, France, Monday, Major Tay-
Tor, the American short distance
champion, the wonder, finished first.
There were thirty competitors in the
event, including Grogna, the Belgian
champion, who finished second A
rider named Dangla was third. The
significance of the victory lies in the
fact that Grogna has twice won the
Grand Prix of Roubaix, in 1889 de-
feating Tcmaselli, the Italian cham
pion, and last year Jacquelin, the
French champion, and greatest of~all
European riders. This is the same

Gov. Chandler, of Georgia, is consid-
erably torn up over the visit Of the dis
tinguished party of New Workers who
visited the South this week to study
the educational institutions Of the
Americans. He says: 49,. *
''The Negro colleges of the South
don't need the aid of these Northern
people very much. Do you know that
you can stand on the dome of the capt.
-tol of Georgia and see more Negro col
leges with endowments than you can

education of the darkey in the South
without the aid of these id Yankees,
and give them the education they need
most, too .~r.- ~. 49, 80

ton of the darkey. He should be
taught the trades, but when he is
taught the fine arts he gets educated
above his caste and it makes him I'M
happy. l am opposed to putting Ne
groes in factories and offices. When
you do that you will cause dissatisfac-
ton between the races, and such things
might lead to a race war" .s--.* =
It seems very strange to us that some
whites cannot get it through their
heads that anything that is good for
them is good for their Afro-American
brothers.. They cannot get too high an
education, why is it that an Afro
American can? Gov. Chandler is right,
however, in saying, when he is taught
the fine arts he gets educated above
Yes, it makes him unhappy, not be-
cause he has developed his God-given
talents, but because his white brothers
are so unchristian, SO unjust, SO blind
ed, SO cursed by a hell-borns inconsist-
ent color prejudice that they will not
give them fair show to exercise them.

At the Winston Salem, N. c., Educa-

state Superintendent Of education for
Georgia, said the greatest trouble about
education in the public schools of the
South was the large waste of money in
the employment of incompetent If not
vicious teachers in the Afro American
schools. So far as the American
was concerned, the only safe place for
him for the next fifty years was in the

previous decision by Minnesota would
not only be discourteous to the ma
tional body, but would prevent Min
nesota's participation in the decision
of that body. Ii Minnesota should de-
eide, it would be like the firing on
Fort Sumter" Six Southern states,
eager to make move, would fall
upon the enemy. The entire fabric
of American women's clubdom would.
probably be rent asunder Surely the
Adelphia had no ambition so an
archistic?
According to the reports in the daily
papers of St. Paul the appearance of
the handsome parlors of the hostess,
the stylish gowns of the ladies of the
Adelphia, and the forceful, courteous,
logical and eloquent language of the
Adelphians came in the nature of a
surprise both to the newspaper re-
porters and the white ladies present.
Mrs. George C. Squires, president of
the New Century Club, who was
''astounded at the beautiful language
and the beautiful sentiments of the
Adelphia,' said she'd be proud if her
own club could do as we'll.
Mrs. M. A. Porter, an Adelphian,
said, eve are being shut out, undoubt-
eddy, not because of constitutional
points, but because we&arez Afro-Amer-
lean women. It is always the ques-
ton of color. We thank you for the
tributes to our leaders, especially to
Prof. Booker Washington, but wher-
ever we go we hear of Prof. Wash
ington. Prof. Washington, we are
told, is conservative. We must be
conservative. But l want to say that
Prof. Washington is in the Southland.
We are in the North. The conditions
are different.
eve are now told, as 1 understand.
that the answer must be deferred un-
til after the meeting of the federation.
