WHAT PAVING DOES.

Paving is the salvation Of any
street. 1t enhances the value of
abutting property, establishes per-
manent grades, aud makes possible
improvements of permanent char
acter. In the residence portions of
the city where there has been paw
ing done there are great changes
for the better always notice. Pro-
perty owners are stimulated to i'm
prove their places. New residences
spring up where worthless shells
Of houses stood before Treoe are
planted and parks are made to the
curb lines. Properties are improv-
ed and kept in repair until in some
cases the entire appearance Of the
streets is altered. Take, for ex-
ample, any Of the paved streets in
our city. Contrast the condition
of the property along these streets
with the condition before the paw
ing was put in. The change in al
most every case has been little less
than wonderful. Paving not only
improves the streets but it builds
up the city.
The street paving of the city is
in q large measure responsible for
great residence improvement made
in the city in tho past several
years. There should be no hesi-
fancy on the part Of the property
owners 10 joining the ranks of the
petitioners for the Improvement
along their street. The cost of the
improvement is many times looked
as burden and q hardship, but
another view shows that it brings
advantage and changes Of vAlne to
the property, not possible without
it. There are petitions in circnla-
tion for the Improvement along
several streets, and It is possible
that OskaIoosa will do some more

streets in residence and business

is right. 1t does not follow that be-
cause he teachers useful arts he me-

Both are taught at Tuskegee,
and that college is sending out tea
chers as well as artisans.
There are agricultural aud mech
anical colleges for the whites all
over the South, where the pupils
are taught practically in the arts.
A knowledge Of farming, mining,
railroading, engineering of every
description, cotton spinning and
other industrial art, does not de-
grade the whites into serdom, and
similar instruction will not reduce
the Tnskegee negro to serfdom.
Labor is honorable, andto be taught
how to labor to the best advantage
rebounds to the happiness of the
individual and the community. The
plan OF Booker Washington debars
no student from a knowledge Of
literary matters. It is the duty Of
the Southern people, white and
black, to hold up the hands Of the
Tnskegee Institute and not premit
it to be lyuched by the negro idiots
OF the North. N. @. Item.

POLICY oe BOOKER WASHINGTON.

We Of the South who unde rstand
the character Of the negro recognize
the fact that Booker Washington
has taken the right steps towards
the Improvement Of his race.
While the Southern negroes cor
daily support him in his work it
is somewhat astonishing to find
that the North are disposed to decry
his methods. The effort to mob
him at Boston revealed that the lar
ger body Of the race were in sym
pathy with him, but it must bs ad-
nitted that large contingentare in
opposition.
At the Indnstcial Church in Chi
cago Sunday last Rev. R. G.
Ransom told q cOI0red audience that
s95 per cent, Of the negroes Of the
country have never indorsed tho
things for which Mr.. Washington .
work stands. = He acknowledged
that Booker Washington il "ths

ent generation but declared that
he was urging the 0sgroes 70 sur-
