HELP FOR TUSKEGEE.
The New York Independent En-
d rses MIR. Washington's Appeal
for Liberal Endowment-Why
the Wizard Succeeds.

The New York Independent, one OF
the Negr 70 most relisble friends, has
this to say of Mr.. Washington and
Taskegee:
I'VE want to give our heartiest in
do,seuent to the attempt of Booker L.
Washington to secure on endowment
of not less than q million dollars for
the Tuskegee Institute, and to DR..
Ffissel's appeals for sim lar endow-
ment for Hampton Institute. Mr..
Washington says we'll that as 1t costs
SI1O 600 year to run the 1uskegee In
sLitute. and $50 600 or more has to be
raised annually by the special app sals
of one person, the condli ls qultetoo
precarious which depends on one mans
life and strength. Already an endoW-
ment of over $278 600 has been secured,
and the value of the plant ls $3.50 OOO.
The appeal is one that easily reaches
the heart of the people. Ii Is for the
great ignorant, common mass OF the
Negro peo ple. 1t does no offer to sup
DIV preachers and lawyers and editors
and politicians, nor even teachers ex-
cept Of q humble grade; but 10 does
propose to teach the commOnest peo-
pIe. who represent the ug mass, how
to puild a decent house, now to keep
out of debt, now TO buy farm, how to
be ssIt-resp, @ ing and respectable. All
this appeals easily and rightfully to
the readiest comprehensive Of the
needs of the people AID We are not sur
pris. that so able and devOJed lead
ar "a Mr. Washington has attr Acted
enthusiastic supporters, and has COL
lected such an i'm mense sum year af

In 1901 the tonnage moved by the
railroads was 1904, 900, 900 tons, and
this immense volume Of freight was
handled in 1,5OO,O 900 cars, hauled by
10000 engines. The tonnage es.
innate for 1902 was LOO, 900, 900.
For the purpose of providing
against this, or a further increase,
20, 900 new cars were added to the
equipment OF the different lines.
But the tonnage offered now is so
far Ia excess OF the estimate that
there is deficiency of not less than
$4,000 in the car supply.

COMMISSIONER OF Indian Affairs
Jones, in his annual report, esti
mates that the government, from
its foundation to 1890, spent $945,
275, 290 in fighting, subduing and
controlling the Indians OF the coun-
try, and $24O, 200, 900 for the educa-
tion and care OF their children.
"The extent and demoralizing eff
fects of the ration system evil, "
says the commissioners, in explaining
his policy of abolishing that system,
"were generally recognized and
universally condemned, except, per-
haps, by mistaken philanthropy,
which, ignoring the natural law
that man must earn his living by
the sweat OF his brow, would exempt
the Indian from labor and carry
him upward on flowery beds OF ease.
Now the Indians manhood is APP
pealed to and he is to be taught
yelf-reliance and self-respect. The
results OF the policy have been
favorable even beyond expectations,
and there is every reason to believe
that the final success OF the plan,
il carried out judiciously, is assured.
AS first result, over $4,000 have
been dropped from the ration roll,
being wholly self-supporting."
