The Attitude of the Strikers.

Editor of The Times Dispatch.
Sir.-In common with all good citizens
OF Richmond | have noted with satisfac-
ton that the striking motormen and con
ductors assert that they have not been
in evidence among the dlsorderly crowds
which have threatened the safety of the
various trolley lines of the city. / have
also noted that not a single instance
has been observed OF the presence OF. a
striker advising or urging the discontin-
nance of acts of violence against the Pas
senger and Power Company.
In view of this careful abstention from
interference on the part OF thu strikers
1t must be that they View with secret
satisfaction these acts of violence. and,
therefore, must bear part of the OBJ
loquy OF these outbreaks against law
and order
II as they claim, the strikers are OPP
posed to these unlawful acts by their
so-called sympathizers. 1t must be patent
to them that these acts disgrace the prin-
ciples of upionism and It should be to
their interests To strive in every way for
the suppression OF lawcssnesS. Nothing
Of the kind has been done, therefore the
strikers have put themselves In the posi-
tion of standing for lawlessness. disgrace
10 the city, disregard, for the rights Of
others, and careless for the good name
of unionism.
No visible assistance has been rendered
by the strikers to the forces of law and

ANOTHER MYSTERY.

The New York papers have new
murder mystery, but the crime was not
committed in that city. The victim
was Colonel Best, a Southerner. who
had amassed fortune by building
railroads. but who had lost the greater
part Of it.
The crime is believed to have been COM
mitted at San Rafael, California. The
leath certificate given there rected thai
the deceased had come to his death by
reason of a cerebral disease.
The body was brought East and In
TERED In the family plot at Caldwell
N. j.. but his relatives suspectIng that
he had come to his death by foul means
had 1t exhumed and an autopsy made.
Vastly to the surprise Of the DOCTORS 1t
deceased had been removed and sawdust
substituted. The brain. however, had
not been disturbed, and an examination
of 1t showed that 1t was In a healthy
condition. Several detached pieces OF
the intestlnes found in the sawdust, upon
analysis. indicated the presence Of an
irritant poison. aconite probably. The
body had been embalmed
Warrants have been issued against
doctor and Mrs. Woods, of San Rafael,
charged with the crime. Colonel Best
met them by chance when travelling and
became their guest. 1t is suspected that
they killed him to get possession Of
certain valuables that he had. and which
are missing.

THE WHITE r1AN'S BURDEN.
When it is remembered that In virginia
and In all the Southern States. the ne
groes pay the smallest conceivable paft
of the tax money that supports the pup
lie schools in which their children are
taught, and that the reason they 40 not
nav more is because most of them are
100 shiftless and Indifferent, even to try
to acquire property that is assessaole Tor
school tax, no one can wonder that mere
and there sentiment springs up among
white men in favor of forcing the negro
IN nav for the schooling Of his own
children or else let them grow up IN
ignorance. It is a heavy burden and the
black man is doing little to tighten It..
It is no wonder that the white people OF
the South occasionally cry out, and ap-
peal to the law-making power to force
the negro to shift somewhat for him
self. at least to the extent of educating
his own children.
This sentiment sprung up In Virginia
and grew to such extent as to induce
some of the members of the late Constltu-
tional Convention to attempt TO moor
poratc in the new organic law an article
apportioning money to the public schools
for whites and blacks according to tho
taxable property of the two races. The
same question came up In North Caro-
lima, and as In Virginia found many adj
vocates in various parts OF the state. In
both Virginia and North Carolina the
sober. second thought prevailed, the prop
ositions to divldeahe school money In the
manner mentioned We're voted down by
Overwhelming maiorities. and the white
man thus voluntarily reshouldered his
burden.
The same proposition has Just been
overwhelmingly rejected by the Georgia
Legislature and the history OF the moVe-
ment for the division Of the school tax
money on this basis is the same In Geor-
gia as in Virginia. We have mentioned
these facts Of recent history merely to
call the attention of our northern friends.
who are so eager to find fault With the
southern way of handling the negro ques-
ton, to the fact that the southern white
man is still shouldering his burden. and
of his own'free will and accord refusing
to lay It down. He Is doing 1t too In the
face of the fact that the beneficiary OF
the burden shows little appreciation Of
what the whites are doing for him, and
continues to refuse to shoulder an ounce
of 1t himself.
We are glad that Georgia has voted
down the proposed law to divide the
school money in the manner indicated, as
we were pleased when Virginia and North
Carolina took the same course. but 1t may
be we'll enough to warn the negroes that
this thing can't last always. The time
will come when they will have to bear
a fair share Of the school tax or so with
out schooling. The white people have
borne the burden, practically alone, for
nearly forty years. These movements In
the States named, which have failed now.
should be sufficient to remind the negro
that the whites are beginning 10 think
