Washington, president of Tuskegee

Institute of Arts and Sciences at AS.
ISOLATION hall, Brooklyn, on his work

In speaking of the recent charges,
he said:
Within the last few weeks, q pub.
lie sentiment stronger and more deep
ly rooted, l think, than ever before,
has gone forth from the words and
actions of governors, the daily press,
the pulpit, confederate veterans and
grand juries, which is saying In thun.
derous tones, that we, as a nation,
must not only be hearers of the words
which teach us to protect the weak.
but we must be doors when it comes
to an important enforcement of the
law.

negro without cause, and not lower
himself. A mob of white men can.
not lynch negro and not bring shame

friends still cling to the hope that
he may yet be appointed, especially
if he now achieves notable success

Grand Dixie Nicholas is regarded as
being extremely we'll fitted for this
great responsibility He has youth
and an iron constitution, but above all
resolution and untiring energy. With
these qualifications whatever he lacks
in military experience and ability as a
strategist, can be supplied by placing
at his disposal the most able mill

Grand Duke Nicholas will not rely

There is better feeling, the Brough-
