There has been much talk about the negro ques-

North Carolina, that laws enacted whereby
a large percentage of the negroes were deprived
of their votes? Was II not in our city, only
few months ago that the black men were beaten
down indiscriminate tely by the police? Do we not
hear daily of lynchings?
Possibly the proportion of CRIME among negroes
Is greater than among the whites. This should

AN APPEAL FOR THE AGED.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Having read with much interest the COM

I have been of a board of managers for twen-
ty-eight years. and tor several years chairman of
the admission committee, and corresponding sec

Beecher Stowe said the true essentials OF
the true home love and liberty: this was
spoken of the private, or family home. but IT may
also be said OF the institutional home for If there
is not freedom from enslavlng restraint it will be
the most irksome place earth.
I have gained large, and. ! may say sad, cx-
perience In my work here. Every institution must
OF necessity have, and enforce. rules which must
be made in accordance with the circumstances ana
surroundings of each. The of which l write

dents OF the city, and who have been so three

my special point is that it would require a very
large home In each state. to accommodate all the
