Letter to G. r. Fletcher.
augusta. Maine.

Dear Sir: Perhaps you are going to
paint your house, and don't believe in
Devoe. Well make you an offer:
Paint half your house lead and oil;
the other half Devoe lead and zinc.
In three years the head and oil half
will be hungry for paint: the Devoe
half Will turn water as wed as when
new.
If not, our agent will stand by this I:
IF you have any fault to find with
this paint, either now in the painting
or hereafter in the wear, tell your
dealer about ii.
I'VE authorize him to do what ia
right at our expense"
Devpe lead and zinc holds color bet
ter than lead; turns water twice as
long.
Yours truly,
80 f. w. DEVOE X co.

A LESSON FOR POLITICIANS

When the students of Booker I.
Washington industrial school cheered
General Gordon's statement that the
white man of the south was the best
friend of the negro the other day, they
administered a rebuke to the Republi-
can politicians who puff the black man
up with vain hopes Of political domina-
ton.
Booker T. Washington, in a recent
widely circulated letter, has denied
that he used his influence toward Sc
curing political preferment for the
southern negro. Booker T. Washing
ton, of he indeed be using the weight
of his influence with the negro to
eradicate the black mans conceit that
the race is capable of government, is
more wise than the white men who
foster that idea for their own selfish
ends.
To large proportion off the people
of the Orth the negro is an abstract
proposition.
Knowing nothing about him except
the more or less one sided information
which they CLEAN from divers public
prints, whose political astigmatism
prevents them from viewing existing
conditions in spirit Of justice, they
possess for the negro a certain long
distance enthusiasm. And when they
do come in contact with he actual
negro, and see him to be not all that
euphemistic and ill-informed writer's
have painted, they are apt to treat his
faults with extraordinary harshness,
Is it not simple and reasonable
proposition that the people Of the
south, who have studied the black man
first hand, know more about his fit
ness, his procliyities, his capacity for
development, his receptive powers, his
actions under certain given conditions,
and to the extent which he may be
wisely entrusted with his own destiny
than do the people that depend upon
second hand information?
And do not the people of the north
see that the determination of the peo-
pie of the south that the negro shall
never rule is founded not only on the
spirit of self-protection, but conceived
as well in a spirit Of kindness for the
negro himself?
EVERY bit Of encouragement which
President Roosevelt, or any other
leader or man, gives to the Negroes de-
sire for political power is bound to
make ultimate trouble for the negro.
The white man of the south is the
negros best friend. When the men of
the north realize this as thoroughly as
do the negroes who cheered General
Gordon the other day long step to-
ward the betterment of existing condi-
tions will have been taken. Atlanta

A COUNTRY WITH RESOURCES.

The eyes of the world are on the
United States as they never were be-
fore. Its growth, its achievements, its
increasing power and its greatness as
commercial and industrial nation ex-
cite the envy while they compel the
admiration of other nations. Herr
Max Goldberger, Privy Councillor Of
Commerce of Prussia, has been study
ing the United States through figures,
and he points out that here is nation
containing barely 5 per cent. Of the
people of the world utilizing % per
cent. of its cultiYable land and produc-
ing rs per cent. Of its corn, 25per cent.
of its wheat and oats, 80 per cent. of its
iron, So per cent. each of its copper and
more than per cent each of its gold,
silver and lead. A country with such
resources and which figures so largely
in the worlds production naturally ex-
cites the envy If not the apprehension
of older and less favored nations.
