SLAVE TO PAY TAXES TO
EDUCATE NEGROES.
Judge Gary ExcIaims Against the
AppOrtfOnment of the School Fund.

Judge Gary ExcIaims Against the
AppOrtionment of the School Fund.
Augusta, Oct. 19.-In charging the
grand jury to-day, Judge William 7.
Gary created something of a sensation
by declaring his opposition to the use
of white mems taxes to educate ne
groes.
He said it spoiled good pillow hands,
and if the negroes ability to acquire
education is conceded, he sees no wis
dom in educating them to be lawyers,
doctors, etc, when there are no places
for them to fill. He had seen, with
tears in his eyes, old Confederates. too
poor to educate their own children, but
paying taxes that went to educate ne
groes.
He thought it was time for the grand
jury to see if something could not be
done to correct this evil.

Club at the Revere House tonight,
Hon. Richard oiney, former Secretary

In this letter Mr.. Olney said he
was wholly in sympathy with the plan
OF the Massachusetts, Democrats in
wagfng the present campaign
upon state issues entirely He
ridiculed the attempt of Republican
speakers to put them aside as "trivi-
alities' and said that in doing so they
have adopted the same attitude upon
state as upon national issues. This
attitude is concisely expressed in the
phrase. stand pat Such argument,
he said, would not appeal to the peo-

cent scandals in Washington.
The fact was that long and unbroken
tenure of power by one political party
was inevitably demoralizing and fatal
to it's usefulness.
