protested against the use of the roads and went to
the extent of asking for an injunction restraining
the road supervisors from giving up the road to
the chauffeurs. They knew the danger to them

And so the race was run, with death claiming its

Because of the grant by the supervisors, the public

ILLITERACY IN THE SOUTH.

| In the worry and discussion of the problem Of
the condition and education of the negro in the
south, that of the poor white people in that part Of
the country seems to have been overlooked, or at
least neglected Bishop Nelson, of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Georgia, is calling for money
to aid in the education of the poorer class of the
whites. Sums of money have been donated by the
north for and devoted entirely to the cause of the
negroes, while little no attention apparently has
been given to the white people, some of them just
as destitute and ignorant, and in as great need Of
aid
In Georgia, one Of the poorer states, the negroes
pay only 8 per cent of the taxes, and yet get one
half of the school fund.- while in addition they have
received such aid as that Of phianthropsts from the
north That state has to pay for the education Of
oneeighth of all the negroes in the United States
and the people of the south as whole have had to
bear almost the entire burden of the education of
the negroes, while white children have grown up in
ignorance 1t said that in Georgia 32 per cent of
the white voters are illiterate
Naturally it would not be supposed that their
condition, as a class, could be such as to require
as great aid and attention that of the blacks kept
in subjection and ignorance for so long, but it has
been Of long standing. Poor and despsed before
the war; they had nothing or everything to lose,
as did the slave owners, but neither had they adj
vancement to gain, as did the negroes, by whom
they were despised and looked down upon as much
as by the whites, being only "poor white trash"
Through lack of ambition, due probably to
their ignorance and poverty, they seem to have
fallen into rut, and to have become considered1
as more outcast than the blacks.
No more effective means of bettering their condi-
tion than the establishment of good and efficient
schools needed and enforcement of attendance,
if necessary, could be found. Among $4,000 chill
dren in Georgia, $4,000 are said to be without
school facilities Bishop Nelson has asked for $3.50,
900 to remedy this condition of affairs, and surely
it should be granted as generously for the education
Of the white children as well as the negroes, in the
south as in the north

THE CARRIAGE CONTRACT.

Tonight the garbage bill should be brought be-
fore the House of Delegates and acIed upon
Certain reasons. alleged reasons. given 10y GER
tain members OF the House intimate that the citizens
OF st. Louis incompetent To comprehend public
questions. The citizens If 81. Louis have been
worrying many years about the garbage contracts
and about garbage conditions. which they believed
10 be wrong Bur the House learns again that there
Is bass for this anxiety and that the citizens Of
st. Louis hold entirely erroneous opinions; and Of
course as the citizens Of ST. Louis made the House,
the House is greater and wiser than they.
Several reasons are given for the obstruction OF
garbage legislation. one is that member of the
House OF Delegates is after the scalp OF officer
OF the Board of Public improvements another is
that the bill may DE Illegal: another is that the bill
might create a bigger monopoly: another is that
the present contractor for The reduction of garbage
owning plant within the city would not take part
in the competition: another is that the proposed sys-
ten would create additional unsaniary nuisances:
another is that the bill would give too much au'bori-
~ TO the Street Commissioner.
There are other so-called reasons.>i few Of which
are almost as good as these which mentioned.
PERHAPS the citizens Of St Louis less coin
petent than is the House to determine what they
wish. Perhaps though tine citizens of 81. Louis de
sire a radical change in the garbage business, the
House will do better 10y dsregardng the popular
desire. Perhaps the expressed wish Of the citizens
is not Indicative Of the popular desire Perhaps the
obstructive tactics of the House ara Indicative Of
the public view.
1t is even possible that the reasons are real
sons Surely the citizens can appreciate the force
of that reason that Delegate is after the scalp
Of somebody. However. there is one excellent and
vigorous that the bill should he passed: and
it is that the citizens Of ST. Louis request. urge and
demand that IL shall be passed.
Citizens should make IL business 10 attend the
