WHITES FEAR BACKWARD RACE
Educators Claim Lsck OF negro Gull
ture RenIIy Responsible for
Color Line.

NEW YORK. Jan. "A meeting was held
tonight In Carnegie hall in the interest Of
education in the south under the auspices
Of the Armstrong association. Morris X.
Jessup. president OF the Chamber Of Com
merce. presided Governor Montague OF
Virginia was among those on the platform.
DR.. Charles W Dabney. president OF the
University Of Tennessee, was the first
speaker. He deplored the lack OF schools
in the rural districts Of the south and the
poverty OF the ini abitants Of those dis
triets which compelled the children to seek
work. He quoted from the census reports
TO show that In 1900 the percentage Of IL
literates among native male whites over
81 years OF age was: In Virginia, II s.;
in North Carolina, 19; in South Carolina.
1875; in Georgia. 12.1; in Alabama, 14.2;
in Tennessee. 14.5, and in Kentucky, Is. 3.
Those conditions were due, he said, to the
poverty Of the people who we're doing pro-
portIonately to their means as much as the
people OF other states.
Education is the need OF the south. "
said DR.. Dabney. but we must educate the
white man first. We need not neglect the
black. but the only way to permanent i'm
provement is to reach the white man so
that he may in his turn teach the negro.
Racial prejudice Is Unborn in US. as in all
human beings. This is not peculiar to
those white people OF the south. The
Creator has planted this prejudice in the
hearts OF the plain people as a means OF
keeping their blood pure and it is going TO
persist therein until culture takes their
place.
The only way, therefore, to remove un-
reasonable race feeling is to eeueste tho
negro SO long as the white NAB sees any
danger TO his children or grandchildren
from the negro Just so long will he hate
him and do all he can to keep them apart.
Charles D. McIvor. president of the North
Carolina Normal school for women, told
Of the advances made in recent years in
his state and said he was hopeful that
the time would soon come when education
Would be within the reach Of every youth
in the south. as # is today in the north
Dr. Alderman, president Of Tulane uni
yersity, New Orleans, said:
This southern problem, so-called. is
wrong at one end and crude at the other
We have to deal with a backward race
If the resistless north would look at this
matter a little less fervidly, get 1t into
their emotions and into their praCtica
hearts and brains they would understand
the conditions better. The southern white
man wants to forget the negro In the past
and to think of him only as an economic
human problem that must ~ considered
in the future. The negro must ge- TO know
that it s no longer a question Of what
the waIte man Is going to do for him
but what he is willing TO do for himself.

WASHINGTON. Jan. Especial Tele-
gram.)-The introduction Of the name Of
Thomas c. Munger Of Lincoln into the con-
test over the United States district attor-
neyship for Nebraska has created a great
deal Of comment among Nebraska politt-
clans in Washington. 1t was not suspected
at any time that a new name would be
presented, the general suppOsition that the
three candidates already in the running
Chairman Lindsay Of the state republican
committee, Mr.. Summers, the present in
cumbent, and W. F. Gurley-would try
conclusions among themselves Whether
there is any authorization for the use uf
Mr. MungeT's name cannot be ascertained.
Senator Dietrich never heard Of his name
in connection with the office, nor have
any OF the representatives from Nebraska.
Until Mr. Munger's name appeared in con-
junction with the visit Of Mr.. Mercer and
Mr. Gurley to the White House yesterday.
Senator Dietrich had no intimation that
there might be a compromise on the ap-
pointment Of United States attorney. When
his attention was called to the question
Of a compromise Senator Dietrich said.
Il have heard absolutely nothing Of any
compromise and until now had not heard
Mr.. Mungers name used in connection with
the Office. AS for myself, I don't see how
could agree to a compromise which would
mean the appointment OF any person other
than Chairman Lindsay. for The reason that
Lindsay is endorsed by practically the en-
tire republican party OF Nebraska. His
support is so strong and so general all
over the state that 1t seems 10 me that
the matter has been taken out OF my hands.
The republican party Of the state is de-
manding the appointment Of Mr.. Lindsay
and it is beyond me to compromise on
any other man, even IL were inclined to
do So"

In view of the fact that Thomas H. Nun
ger has been chairman Of the First district
congressional committee for the last six
years appointed to the position in all par
ticulars by Mr.. Burkett, it was thought
here that the representative from the First
Nebraska district had something to do with
exploiting Mr.. Munger's name for the dis
trict attorneyship, but Mr.. Burkett pro-
fesses profound ignorance in regard to the
matter. To the representative OF The Bee
he said tonight:
q have not suggested Mr. Mungers name
to the president. and furthermore such a
course never entered my mind. Mr. Mum
ger is my district chairman, my very good
friend, one Of the best Of fellows and a
most able lawyer. l have not presumed
to enter upon the question Of a choice for

THROWN FROM
FIRE TRUCK
ldddsimdn Frank Smith Meets with
a Serious Accident While
Answering an Alarm

While on the way to fire the sud-
den jolting of the hook-and-ladder
truck threw Fireman Frank Smith
from his position on the running
board. He struck the pavement head
foremost and was still unconscious
when brought to the hospital. 1t was
feared by the house physician that he
had received internal injuries which
might prove fatal.
Smith is stationed at the Central
Fire Station, corner Fifth and Valley
streets, Burlington, Ia, and in re-
ferring to the accident, he said to a
reporter: "My whole system had re-
ceiyed violent shock which affected
my nerves fearfully. The doctor said
| had nervous prostration. | would
often start trembling out of a trou-
bled sleep, covered with a cold per-
spiation, and imagining something
horrible was about to happen There
would be times when my whole body
would be numb and then again there
would be terrible cramps in my limbs.

hospital | was so weak that | could
not walk across the room and my

petizers they gave me did me no good

ANOTHER DONATION.

Henry George denied the correct
ness of the Adam Smith school in as
suming that the central law in pOliti-
cal economy is human selfishness, and
laid down as his central law that men
in their struggle for existence always
seek to accomplish their purposes with
the least expenditure of energy. whe-
tier that purpose be conceived in a
spirit of selfishness or beneyolence.
This, of course, Is correct If we re-
strict the definition of "selfishness. ;"
A noted actor in one of his plays takes
the part OF benevolent gentleman
who breaches the philosophy of self
Is ness. With him, his apparently
most benevolent and unselfish act is
inspired by selfishness-he gets more
genuine pleasure by doing what the
world calls "unselfish" acts. tl e
