THE INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS OF
THE NEGRO.

There is no occasion for the Negro
race in this country to yield to despair.
Many wrongs there are which should
be righted and in the Providence Oh
God will be righted in His own good
time. Impartial observers like Blshop
McCabe of the M. E. Church, see plain
lv the steady progress of our people,
the substantial advance of the race IN
all lines of high endeavOr. We are
represented in every field of labor and
mbst creditably. Hospitals, schools,
banks, societies and elemOsynary insu-
tutions of every character are beln9
conducted by the race and for the race
throughout the broad land. 1t is true
that occasionally bank or some other
enterprise comes to grief through lack
of experience or of proper precautions
on the part of it's conductors, but
though unfortunate the fact is but IN
cidental to our advance and of not un-
FREQUENT occurrence in the history OF
any civilized people. Behlnd the
somber coloring which marks much OF
our contact with the whites OF the
country there is the great ana con-
stant leaven, ever fermentlng ana IN
sistent, slowly perhaps, but surely ele-
waiting our prolitarians and deStlheu
finally to make for this ambitious ana
history unequalled since the foundation
of time.
Think of our magnificent church re
cord and of the vast sums which we
have invested in the edifices consecra-
ted to the service of the Almighty
Father in spite of our poverty. If that
record is not matchless, it is equalled
only by our own achievements in secret
societies. The Grand United Order OF
Odd Fellows, the Masonic Craft, the
True Reformers have each of them
history to satisfy the pride OF the
warmest race lover.
In all forms of educational endeaYor,
we are no longer merely respectable,
but we are coming rapidly into the
front ranks. Higher education has
given us great names. and industrial
training is keeping pace. Ihese TWO
forms of training have no natural
an+aoonism. They should go hand in
hand with reciprocal appreciation
Each should supplement the other.
The colored American., 1903-03-14
THE CRUM CASE.

DR.. w. d. Crum, whose nomination
for the post OF Collector of Customs
at Charleston, S. c., failed with the ad-
journment of the United States Senate
on the fourth instant, has been re
nominated for that office of the Presi-
dent to the Special Session of the
Senate, which convened March 5th-
The Colored American has again and
again told its readers of the high es-
timat1on in which DR.. Crum is held
by every one who knows him, and how
admirable a representative he is of
ali that is best and truest in the race
We adhere to our judgment of the
Doctor, but while his confirmation is
by no means assured, through the dis
appearance of Senator Jones' of
Nevada, from the scene of action
makes it most favorable, we are at this
writing standing hats Off in an attitude
of profound respect and admiration for
President Roosevelt. In him there is
no change or shadow of turning. If
he IS for you the whole world may be
against you
1t would have been quite easy to let
Dr. Crum down to political obscurity
after the Senate adjourned on the 4th
instant. There might have been argu-
ment in favor of that course, but the
President does not believe in snivel
and he has simply made his choice be-
tween unspeakable Tillmanism on the
one hand, and character, morality and
high standing on the other The Presi-
dent is both brave and sincere and
easily maintains the warm regard CT
his fellow countrymen.
The colored American., 1903-03-14

President Roosevelt wields a ready
and a mastery pen. His recent letter
to Mr.. Clark Howells, of Georgia, on
his Southern appointments is a gem.
1t is impossible to conceive how the
South'S attitude of personal hate and
vituperation can be maintained against
him in the light of this manly and un-
answerable statement Yet his attrac-
tive and honorable record in the matter
of selecting his SubordinateS through
out the country is in happy accord with
his character as we know it. He is a
man of ideals, of high standards, and
to win his favor-personal or political
"a man must measure up closely to
them.
The fact may be illustrated by OBJ
serving the fine note that dominates
his personal friendship. Every man
who is close to him is a strong man
mentally, and many physically. They
have all done or are doing things, and
his crOnies will never be termed a
kitchen cabinet, for they all have af-
fairs of large proportions to claim their
attention and their best energies. There
is no doubt about it, the President is
the idol of the American people, and
we believe that if the Presidential cleo
tion were to occur at once the demo-
cratic party would go out of business
and into bankruptcy.
The colored American., 1903-03-14

Both are prime essentials to the race.
The mass of the race needs most of all
the weapon of industrialism with
which to fight the battle of daily life
with effect, win the rewards Of in
telligent labor and higher education,
which at best can come only to the
few will adjust itself and will confer
its favOrs upon those of us who are
ready for it.
Individual prosperity among our peo-
pie was never so strongly marked as
at present, and the fact will be appre-
ciated all the more when we reflect
to how great a degree our charitable
organizations are being supported by
our own people. Forty years of liberty
is but a brief space of time in the
history of any people, but our strides
upward in that period have been gigan-
tic.
We should press on, never disheart-
ened and ever inspiring to our highest
ideals and our victory over all the un-
toward influences which now surround
us will be assured.

THE REAL PATRIOT.

And now there is a new attack upon
industrial educationi It's ingenuity is
excelled by its insineerity only. 1t in
dicates at once an appreciation and
fear of the Negroes ductilty. 1t is
said that to give him the cunning of
the practised hand, to provide for the
coincident industrial development of
the two races is to furnish a dangerous
contribution to that war of races IN this
country, which some learned dCctrinar-
les affect to believe inevitable. The
proposition is absurd. The Southern
Workman, an exceedingly healthy and
vigorous periodical published by the
Hampton Virginia Institute, recently
gave space to conclusive refutatiCn of
the proposition. The points should be
emphasized. The Negro is not
striker. He is not conspirator. His
exclusions from the ranks Of trades
unionism is due perhaps to his color
but more to his love of peace and
order. His mind is not fertile soil for
the labor agitator. He will have moth
ing to do with the propaganda that the
force of labor is the apotheosis of Ii
cense.
His record in the South where for
years he has practically dominated the
labor problem is most admirable. While
conSpiracieS and all the most unlOvely
attributes of white laboring men in the
North have combined to make him
practically unknown factor in the
ranks of skilled workmen in that sec
ton, (and attention is invited to the
strong word of Mr.. Samuel H. Blythe
wood, of Philadelphia, on this subject
recently published in our cOlumns,) he
has never failed to extend a most
cordial welcome to every white man,
xxrhn info thn skilled industries
of the South and he has never put an
obstacle in the way of the white
brother intent upon gaining an honest
days pay for an honest days work.
The Negro will dominate the Southern
labor market for many many years yet.
and there will be no trouble of his
making or his seeking. If the white
man wants to make trouble, upon his
own head be the consequences.
The colored American., 1903-03-14

We not with regret that Congress
has retained that Objectionable re-
quirement touching the head of the
District Fire Department, which will
probably cause us to lose the services
of Fire Chief r. w. Dutton, on the
first of July, the commencement of the
next fiscal year. We have heretofore
put on record our high estimate of Mr..
buttons capacity and usefulness, and
of the warm place he occupies in the
hearts of his subordinates. We can
only add the hope that the Commission
ers may be able to retain him in some
capacity in the Fire Department, where
his exceptional talents may be kept in
full play.
