EXPERT OPINION ON THE NEGRO.

ENfEh OFiNiON ON Tx NGOnOs
Cutie the most remarkable recent
contribution to the controversy known
as the 'nogro question" is the work Of
HIM. d. II. Chamberlain, formerly gov
error Of South Carolina. 1t is remark.
able, too. not only because Of the
proposition It embodfes, but on ac.
count OF the writer's peculiar qualif-
cations for speaking with authority.
Mr. Chamberlain is native Of
Massachusetts He was graduated at
Harvard He went South imme iiately
after the civil war took a prominent
part in the so-calied reconstruction OF
that unhappy people. and. by reason Of
his conspicuous ability and doubtless
honest zeal, soon reSched a command
ing position in the crusade. For d
number of years he was an aclnowl-
edged Republican leader; he served as
governor of South Carolina; he was in
a position to form an accurate esti
mate Of the negro's fitness for the cleo.
tive franchise. and, more than mos
men, he was morally and intellectually
competent to utilize the opportunity.
He left Massachusetts a firm believer
in the negros capacity for taking part
In government wholly free from those
prejudiccs which are still supposed to
be confued to Southern-bon men, and
now. after nearly forty years of expert
ence and observation, his deliberate
judgment is to the effect that the ma
IONS first duty is to deprive the negro
of his political privileges ami to re.
move from mis- mind the most shadowy
hcl,e of social equality.
Ex-Governor Chamberlain is not a
doetrinaire. a dreamer. or a theorist.
He may have been all Of these wher
he iourneyed from New England to
South Carolina in the late COS. To
use his own words, however. he has
dismissed vain wishes and vainer fan
cies for the stem realities by which
all men must in the end inform their
thoughts and guide their lives. AS hs
points ou. the negro's personal free
do n was ia no way promoted by any
effort Of his own. The franchise was
thrust upon him by men who knew
nothing Of his character his racial
impulses. and inherent passions while
his dreams of social recognition have
been promoted wholly by misguided
wonld-be friends. Neither the political
privileges nor the ambitious but la
coherent fantasies in question have
done the negro any good. On the con.
.rary, they have done hi'n infinite
harm. Instead of lifting him up to-
wurd the measure Of useful citizenship,
they have served only to make him the
sport Of demagogues or the victim OF
his own mischievous infatuation.
Mr.. Chamberlain saw the negro a.
his best and at his worst; saw him
when he was securely fortified in po-
litioai power and held the opportunity
Of untrammeled selfassertion; saw
him incapable Of realizing that oppor-
tmity or Of committing one act that
mieb have justified the mad expert
