He found that two movements OF
population were discernible--a steady
exodus of negroes from country to
town, or toward the north, and n mod
crate, but apparently increasing, M
flow of whites into the south. One
fact Mr. Brown regards as omlnious
for the negroes--that Is, that the white
man is ousting the blacis man from
occupations which the latter some
years ago exclusively controlled; while
in new industries, such as cotton man
ufacture. the negro is not be found al
all. Perhaps it is even more signi'1-
cant Of imminent peril to the negro
that his opportunity Is being gradually
taken from him by white competitors
even on the farms and plantations. Nor
Is 1t the native poor white with whom
the negro has to reckon; 1t is the Euro
pcan, sometimes the German, but more
often the Italian, and the Bohemian
who are to be feared. Referring to
census testimony, Mr.. Brown says:
"In the case of at least fourteen lead
ing occupations the figures FOR, the two
census years reveal the true course OF
an actual competition. In flve of those
occupations, while both races gained,
the negroes gained more rapidly than
the whites. This was true of the class
known as servants and walters of the
miners and quarrymen, Of the nurses
and midwives, of the iron ana steer
workers, and Of the operatives IN saw
mills and planning mills. In the other
nine occupations, the negroes lost
ground relatively to the whites Ihat
Isl to say. the proportion OF negroes
among the draymen, truckmen ana
teamsters in the south, among inc
steam railroad employees, among the
operatives in tobacco and cigar FACTOR
les among the fishermen and oyster
men, among the engineers ana fireneh
Of other than locomotive engines,
among the BARRIERS and hairdressers'
among the launderers and laundresses,
among the seamstresses, and among
the carpenters and josners, was less IN
1900 than it was in $780, In the two
classes last named there was an apso-
1,,te decrease in the number OF negroes.
The figures for the whole country snow
also that there were fewer negro black
smiths in 1900 than IN 1890; and there
1s no reason to suppose that what was
true Of the whole country was not true
Of the southern states"

TIPPED OVER A HIVE.

vardaman, governor by the grace OF
prejudice Of Mississippi, appears to
have tipped over the bee hive with his
latest insult to the president Of the
United States. When President Fran
els. Of the st. Louis fair, sent special
telegram to the governor of Mississip-
81, saying that President Roosevelt
greatly admired the Mississippi build
ing, vardaman's coarse personality
obtruded itself in a reply at once In
sulting to Theodore Roosevelt and the
government Of which he Is chief exec
utive. In this reply Vardaman said:
ut is Of course gratifying to the peo-
pie OF Mississippi to know that they
have done one thing that the present
president Of the United States ap-
proves. Doubtless the presidents ad-
miration OF the Mississippi building IL
due to his admiration Of Jefferson Da-
Wis, Of whose last home 1t is rep
lica." It is such an answer as a sulky
brute Of boy on the way to the re-
form school might make to offered pity
and politeness.
But the latest exhibition Of petulant
idiocy has apparently Disguised the
people of Mississippi to the speaking
point. kilograms from prominent Mis-
sissippians have poured in upon
President Francis, repudiating the lam
guage and sentiment Of Vardaman's
telegram. From Jackson. the capital
Of Mississippi. telegram sent to
Francis, signed by the proprietors Of
the local papers, and the correspond
ents of the metropolitan press. express
es appreciation Of the telegram to
which vardaman sent his insulting re-
ply. The newspapers Of the capital
condemn vardaman's action as dis
credit and injury to the state" The
Jackson Evening News says; "Courte-
~ demands courtesy. This Is the first
law Of refinement. Governor Varda-
man in his reply has grossly misrepre-
scented the people OF his state. There
win be general condemnation Of Var
daman In the state for this act. Peo-
pie Of Mississippi expect more Of their
governor than display Of small, pet
~ hatred"
After all, there may be hope for Mis-
sissippi, when it drops factionalism to
condemn q blatant and foul-mouthed
official like vardanan. Little has come
from Mississippi to attract the notice
Of the nation except in the nature Of
braggadocia and lawlessness. Mississ-
appi is in bad repute, and while 1t re-
tains such men as vardaman in high
position, the influence and reputation
Of the state will remain of the lowest.
The best way to repudiate vardaman-
ism is to relegate its opponents to de-
served oblivion.

The Pittsburg Press prints the fol-

Presbyterians:
"a great stir was made among the
100 preachers gathered last night ut
the reception of Mrs. William Thaw's
house, by the announcement that I'm

ed the Westminster confession Of
faith, and that the faculty Of the SEM
mary had adopted one Of their own
by unanimous vote.
"This action was at once followed by
the gift to the seminary Of $250,O00 by
two men, one of whom is believed to be
Robert G. Ogden, John Wanamaker's
partner.

ers, as no notice Of this action had
been seen in any paper. 1t was given
out by Rev. DIR. David Schley Schaff.

OF the cards enclosed, four in num-

one entitled, Are You Going to He'll

Will You Spend Eternity"
These are solemn questions, but our
thoughts are brought down from them
to the sordid earth by the information
on each that they are on sale by the
sender at the rate of "76 cents per
1000 cards." tho the entire cost of
production cannot be more than half
the price charged.
The question arises In the carnal
mind, therefore, whether this represen-
tatiye "of the Redeemed Army" is the
more interested in our eternal saliva

profit Of one hundred per cent.
Accordingly we feel justified IN ask
