are held at Tuskegee show year after
year growth of character and Of eco
nomic efficiency among large masses
of them; and the reports of the
Negro Business Mems league and
other such bodies tell of remarkable
progress.
The negro's children, too, will be
wiser than he is; and, after all, this
whole problem is not one that We
who are now living shall see the end
of. If we pass it to the next genera
ton in a better shape than we found
it-that is all We can hope to do.
And no man who knows southern life
can for a moment doubt that it is now
in very much better shape than it

OF the find spread, and there was
rush for the new territory. Miners
poured in at the rate of 1000 week
and soon all the available land was
staked out in claims.
For the entire 400 miles from
Perth there is not sign of vegeta-
ton. There is no water except that
which may be found standing in the
gnamma holes or basin like forma-
tions in the stones. The prospector
fills. his water bag from these and
then strikes out over the country.
When they have found placer mine
they have no water with which to
work it and they use a shaker. That
is a series of sieves arranged one
above the other, with the mesh
smaller at the bottom. When the
dirt has been put through the shaker
it is tossed in the air and the wind
blows away the fine dust. The gold
then can be picked out.
"All the water we have is what is
taken from the mines and condensed
and this sells at from $3.50 to $625 a
hundred gallons. A pumping system
is now being put in which will bring
water from Perth, 400 miles away, to
Kalgoorlie. There will be ten relay
stations in the line. The system will
be in operation next year.
During the greater part of the
year the thermometer stands at lis
in the shade and should a prospector
get away from the gnamma hole with
out water his sufferings are apt to be
something awful. There is now a
line of railway from Perth and also

In most of the discussion of the
race problem little is said OF the
negro's own point of view. He is the
chief figure of it all. He is at once
the innocent cause of it and the chief
factor in it's solution.
There has not been time enough
nor work enough nor money
enough nor opportunity for the
great masses of them to be built
up to responsible citizenship, but the
leaders of the race-the real leaders
show steady growth in thrift, in
responsibility and good citizenship. A
study of the result of the work done
at any Of the great schools where
they are properly trained will give
the most respondent man high hope.
In fact, the record of the best men
and women who have gone out from
Hampton and Tuskegee and other
such training places make one OF the
most remarkable chapters in human
