IS NEGRO EDUCATION
A POSITIVE FAILURE?
DR.. Kingsbury Sees the North Learning Things
Alarming increase of Crime in
Our Country.
Our Country.

I warned against the great increase of ne
roes in that city which already has So,
| 300 of that race. He said that there are
rom five to six thousand negroes coming
20 this city from the South every year.
And those negroes belong to the very
worst classes in the Southern States.
Iow, what are you going to do about
it, He enlarges. They are learning slow
Y but surely "up there. They will
know more before decade. Mr.. Tyler
urther said:
You cannot transgress the laws Of
Sod unless you suffer the mental anguish
nd physical pain which must necessarily
ollow. There is no communication of this
punishment and there should be no com
mutation OF sympathy offered to these
lie wretches-animals-w attack our
lear ones on public highways and steal
nd murder.
THE people Of the North have, there
ore, a tremendous task before them.
hey have made serious mistake in say
ng that the negro is the eaual)of the
White man. He is not the equal of the
ghite man and he has found this out in
Alabama and Georgia and other Southern
states"

il grace Up in the Berkshire Hills OF
Id cantankerous Massachusetts, so dead

bout the public schools and Sambo.
5ome of the whites refused to send their
hildren to public school in which there

heir children to an old school where

place, the new school in the negro settle
nent was closed, and the District Court
iecided against the negroes, sustaining
he right of the school committee to send
he children of the district where it
pleased The night after this decision
vas known the New Guinea school was
buried, undoubtedly by an lncendiary.
When Massachusetts receives q quarter of
| million additional negroes the whites
will wake up, and then they will curse
he South for not keeping the dear ne
groes at home instead of afflicting them
in their boastful civilization. They love
nightly dear Sambo, but at long range.
When aNulip poplar in North Carolina
is so feet high to the first limb, and when
cut down and prepared for shipping, it
fetched $1,000 Costing first but $500, it
looks as if the tree business in our State

foolish people are when they sell off fine
timber lands to Northern spectators for
a trifling sum.

In 1856, there appeared in Harper's

CRYING because of their truth and OBJ

Some go to church just for walk,
Some go there to laugh and talk,
Some go there the time to spend,
Some 60 there to meet a friend,
Some so to learn the preachers name,
Some go to church to sound his fame,
Some go there for observation,
Some go there for speculation,
Some the impulse neer discover,
Some go there to meet lover,
Some go there their eyes to close,
Some go there to eye their clothes,
Some go there to doze and nod,

Peculiar Freight.

An unique consignment OF
freight passed through this city
the first of the week. 1t consist
ed of large FIR tree from Grays
Harbor, Wash. One half of the
log had been followed out and
fashioned into a business office
with desk, chair and settee carved
out of the solid wood: The 9th
er half of the log was followed
out and fornsed two cages in one
of which was a large mountain
lion and the other half grown
black bear. The outfit was be-
ing taken to Chicago. From
there they will probably go to

The pathmaster is a pioneer
handed down into these DAYS OF
development. As his name signi-
hes he was a factor ofearlv days
He blazed the trail and laid the
path through forest and over
plain from settlement to settle
ment. He was a leader among
the apostles of axe and gun who
established the first means of To-
cal commerce. And like the log
house, the OK team and the In
iuns" he is becoming a thing OF
the past. With all the good he
has done to history, like the ague,
sand flies, mosquitoes and leeky
butter. before many more gener-
ations have passed he will only
be a sweet memory. In his flow
er he assembled the farmers OF
of his road district after corn
planting to make about the same
temporary filling in and digging
out that had been made from
year to year. He would, each
year, rebuild the same culvets,
repair the same "crossways" cut
the same overhanging brush and
fill IN the same washouts. Anew
piece of road was sometimes cut
but never built exceptin the most
temporary manner. Inshort, his
was much less a road factory
than a repair shop.
But a change IS coming. IN fact
has come. Theprogressivc farm
er now realizes that the highway
Is To him what the railroad is to
the city. A poor one is better
than none, but 1t does not meet
the demands of progress and
competition. With aroad which
ne can haul his products to mar
ket any day in the year, he can
take advantage of the markets
and IS not at the mercy of the
weather for the prices he may
hope to get. He also brings to
realize that it is better TO raise a
small money tax and have 1t eff
fectually applied in building per
manent roads, then to pay large
tax and getno permanently good
roads. These changes in the
farmers sentiments toward the
road question are shown in the

Novel Ice House.
The Plan of an Ingenious Lincoln
County Farmer.

~ came across a farmer near
Tomahawk recently who has a
unique plan for saving ice, and
one that might be used with adj
vantage by city people to escape
the clutches of the ice trust. "
said A. F. Lane, who had just re-
turned from an outing in the
woods of northern Wisconsin.
This fellow needed ice, being In
the dairy business, so he dug a
hole under the front porch of his
house, making it about seven
feet deep and five feet lond and
five feet wide. Then when the
real cold weather came he poured
about two feet of water III the
hole and let it freeze, first cover
ing the bottom with sawdust.
Then as the winter progressed
he continued the process, and be-
fore the first thaw warned him
of the coming of warm weather
he covered the ice serface with
sawdust and made a trap door
through the floor of the porch.
Now, when he needs ice he has it
handy. "-Milwaukee Sentinel.

The Birthday of the Stars
and Stripes.

Tuesday, June II, was Flag
Day, the anniversary OF the date
IN 1777 when the Continental
Congress adopted the resolutions
providing that the flag of the
thirteen United States be thir-
teen stripes, alternate red and
white, and that the union be
thirteen stars, white IN a blue
field, representing a new cOnstsl-
latiOn.
The Tag thus authorized was
borne upon three memorable bat
'tie6elds IN the same year. 1t was
at Brandywine on September II q,
at Germantown on October 4,
and II proudly foated over the
surrender Of Burgoyne after the
battle OF Saratoga on October
18th.
The stars representing a rev
constellation have increased IN
number to forty-hve, and the ma
ton of which the flag is an EN-
blem has grown from three mil
hons of people to more than
eighty millions-therichest, most
powerful and enlightened or the
globe.
Well may Flag Day be patriot
icslly remembered by the citizens
of the United States.-Evening

curing the only direct line from

Sioux City, Omaha and other

Under President Roosevelt's
proclamation United States Re-

opened July 5th at Fairfax, Yank-
ton and Bonesteel, S. d., for the
registration of applicants for
these lands. The registration
books will remain open until
July 23rd and commencing July
2Sth, drawings will take place,
to determine the order in which
the applicants will be permitted
to make final entry and settle

Bonesteel, August 2Sth. No one
is permitted to register or make
entry to land by mail but must
be personally present at one of
the three points named for regis

The lands are we'll watered by
the Missouri, Niobrara and the
White rivers, and are remarkab-

the great corn belt of the Mis-

The Horses of Mexico.

Although at the time of the
conquest horses were unknown
in Mexico, that country to-day
boasts of some of the finest of
the species. The horses of Cuba
that were taken to Mexico as
we'll as the horses that went to
the River Plate on a similar err
rand of conquest are believed to
have been of Andalusian b:eed,
and Cunninghame Graham. the
famous British author and Jrav-
eler, who knows from personal
experience both Merican and Ar
gentine horses, holds that we
must look 10 Barbary for the
progenitors of the Cordobese
horses. Most horses, he SAYS,
in fact, all breeds of horses have
six lumbar vertebrate. A most
careful observer, the late Ed
ward Loosen, a professor in the
Agricultural college of Santa Cat
alma, near Buenos Ayres, has
noticed the remarkable fact that
the horses of the Pampas have
only FIVE. Following up his re-
searches, he has found that the
only other breed of horses in
which a similar popularity is to
be found is that of Barbary."
So Cunninghame Graham, who
has ridden the horses of the
Moors in Morocco, as well as the
horses of Mexico and the Pam
pas, is of the opinion that these
horses are evidently descended
from those of Barbary.
Oflate years thousands of our
American horses have been inn
ported into Mexico, often thor
oughbreds, and undoubtedly the
type of the Mexican horses of to-
day has changed somewhat
through the infusion of the new
blood. Some one competent and
with leisure land it is indespens-
able that he be alover of horses
should take up this theme OF the
Mexican horse and make big
book ON the subject.
Anyone who has ridden the
wiry and long enduring little
Mexican horse will not need to
be told of its good points. Not
infrequently is he a wind drink
