charge for his services,
It is matter for congra' ulation that
Mr. Washington's position on the edu-
cational question is getting to be more
generally understood by our people.
The time was when he was thought to
be opposed to liberal mental culture and
was berated as the enemy of the college
and the university. Such a mIsunder-
standing necessarily retarded, to some
extent the progress of the cause for
which he stands, and, to some extent
crippled his possible usefulness to the
race so sadly in need Of his safe and
strong leadership.
The special remarks to the white peo-
pie In this Birmingham audience were
manly and straightforward courteous
In phrase and friendly in sentiment,
but plain and convincing as to their
duty to the black man who had been
brought among them against his will,
but who had shown himself in the
main, peaceable and law. abiding, faith
ful and devoted TO the interests OF his
White employer and fellow citizen.
The happy faculty of knowing how to
touch responsive chord in the breasts
OF men Of all kinds, of being able to tell
classes and conditions of people their
duty, without Offense to the most sen
sitiVe and prRjudlced, is peculiarly Mr. |
WashingtOn's own. Lea us thank God |
that such a man has been given 80 Us |
and to the world.

John A. McCandless and other citi>

should amount to not less than the
sum of 81 for each inhabitant.

for her and would have done for her
had not his career been SO untimely
closed.'
Prominent citizens are taking very
kindly to the thought and the idea
seems to have been received with gen.
eral favor wherever it has been spoken
of. One dollar per capita would mean
a subscribed fund of $l54,00l, this
amount numerically representing the
population according to the last CEN
sus.
The subscription would go towards
the erection of a national monument in
memory of the chief executive of the
United tSates, to be erected at Wash
ington or other chosen place on the
mainland by universal and popular
subscription.
