4 SUFFERING DAcAARATfoN

Governor James K. yardaman of Mississippi has made a stir by declar- ing in his inaugural address that the educated negro is more inclined to criminality than the uneducated. Bas- ing his recommendation upon this as- sertion, Governor Vardaman suggests that the State of Mississippi amend it's constitution so that the distribution of the common school fund shall be placed wholly within the power of the legislature. In view of his proposition it is to be assumed that the purpose of such an amendment is the cutting off from the negro the opportunity of ob- taining school privileges by robbing him of such portion of the State school funds as is now allowed him. In a word, the governors theory is that the negro is deteriorating under our edu- cational system, in that education de- velops a tendency to assault upon white women as a manifestation of the racial desire for social equality. In support of this theory Governor Var daman asserts that the negro is more criminal as a free man than he was as a slave, and that in the decade from 1880 to 1890, according to the census, negro criminality increased one-third. According to the governor, the mini mum illiteracy of negroes is found in New England, where it is PIT per cent, while the maximum of illiteracy is in the 'black belt''-Louisiana Mississip- pi and South Carolina-where it is 65.7 per cent. And yet,' says the gover- nor, "the negro in New England is four and one-half more criminal, hun dred for hundred, than he is in the black belt"
 MT. vardaman is a governor, but we shall be surprised if it is found that he has governed his tongue in his talk about New England negroes. Our guess is that either his figuring or his statement is wrong.

 The Bible says that a house divided against itself cannot stand. so perhaps Joseph Chamberlain and his tarin pol icy are about to fall. When he started on his protectionist campaign there was a sarcastic reference to his raging. tearing propaganda" by his brother. Arthur Chamberlain, a business man of Birmingham, who now, travelling in h. dia, is sending home some more sharp shafts of criticism and ridicule. To the cevlon Times he describes his brother as an optimistic politician" floating in an atmosphere of pleasant delusion created by his own conceit and destin- ed for rough awakening when his pro- posals are put to general vote. Protec- ton. in his opinion. would be a fatal blow to England's commercial great ness: and he does not believe that the English masses will be such fools as to suffer taxes to be raised out of their food'
 There are indications that Arthur Chamberlain's ideas are much more popular in England than his brothers. Arthur ought to know his brother, and his description of him is perhaps fairly occ,,ra+a

succEsS ro THIS MoVnMENg.

It is perhaps little early to begin to think about and plan sor the Glorious Fourth, but the Emerson Union of Bos- ton is thinking and planning in a way which justifies its earliness. That union thinks this union could profitably change It's ways of celebrating its inde- pendence. Instead of burning money the Emerson Union would use 1t for music and helpful aids to innocent en- joyment. Instead of pistols, firecraekers and torpedoes, which torture the sick, injure many and brutally torment thou sands of creatures, dumb as well as hu- man, it would have public excursions to the bay and to the country, for the chil- dren and their guardians. It would have the Symphony and Mechanics halls and other large auditoriums open on that day for three grand public or gan concerts. and also have small or chestras and bands play in certain parts of the city, morning, noon and at sum- down.
 The Emerson Union asks the powers that be in Boston to help provide such a programme as it suggests and it is to be hoped that the petition will be grant ed. It would be appropriate for Boston to lead the way in reforming the Fourth and then it would be appro- priate for the other cities to initiate her.

The Fort Cobb Record tells this story of young girls composition on Men. :" Men are what women marry. They drink and smoke and swear and have ever so many pockets. but they won't go to church. Perhaps if they wore bonnets they would. They are more logical than women and always more geological. Both men and women have sprung from monkeys, but the women certainly sprung further than the men,"

In the course oe few months this country will receive visit from six hundred Porto Rican school teachers. Congress is to make provision for bringing this number of teachers from the island, in order that they may get into touch with American ideas and in- stitutions and ,impart them to our lit- tie brown wards. Congress did the same thing for the school teachers of Cuba few years ago. The investment was a splendid one, as the teachers re- turned to Cuba with completely new ideas regarding the Americans and our intentions toward them. There are twelve hundred school teachers in Porto Rico, and the commissioner of education for the island is to be charged with the duty of selecting the six hundred excursionists. Our govern ment will provide a transport to bring the teachers to this country, and will

eIn recent novel Georges Ohnet called one of the products which his principal character placed OF the mar ket "Abrictonine." He was not aware at the time that liquor of that name actually existed, but it's manufacturer promptly brought an action for dam ages. The Civil Tribunal of the Seine gave it's decision against the novelist. While it exonerated M Ohnet from malicious intent, it held that ignorance was no excuse, and that it was the duty of writers to satisfy themselves that products to which they intended to refer did not exist. In this case, added the court, M. Ohnet could easily have consulted the Register of Trade Marks. Consequently the court order ed the passages objected to to be eras- ed from the book, under penalty of ten francs a copy, while the plaintiff was awarded 800 francs damages and the right to have the judgment insert ed in two newspapers.

A special meeting of the trustees of the Peabody Educational fund has been called for January 2S in Washington to consider several proposed changes in the work now being done. One of these is to concentrate the entire work of the fund in establishing normal college either at Nashville, Tennessee, where the present Peabody college is, or at some other point in the South. Another proposition which is being urged is to divert large part of the fund to the aid of the country schools of the South, while other members of the board of trustees favor maintain ing the present college at Nashville as an institution for the education Of teachers for the schools of the South

Louise Michel Dying

Louise Michel the French champion
of anarchy, is said to be dying. The
Paris co. o.lespondent of the New York
World says: In all France there is
hardly to be found a more famous
woman than Louise Michel With un-
daunted heioism she donned a uniform,
shouldeled musket during the COM
mune and went into battle as fear
lessly as the bravest French soldier.
When she finally became a prisoner she
taunted her judges and said: You
dare not sentence me to be shot, fear
ing that /, "A woman, win show more
courage than you did before the bullets
of the Prussians.' The dying woman
is known as the Joan of Arc of anar-
chism and the Red Virgin. She was
once transported as a criminal for
leoting the bouleva. d bakeries to get
bread for the poor. She was a friend
and companion of Rochefort, and in
many respects they held common
views. He says that the fearless wo-
man was at heart as tender and ro-
mantle as a child. On meeting her
once at St. Lazarre station she said.

blind kitten in my pocket when you

When Russia Helped Us

There are but few people on the coast
who remember that the Russian gov
eminent sent a suadron to San Fran
cisco in 1868 to prevent the west from
falling into the hands of the confeder-
acy in the event of England and
France recognizing the independence
of the south. This important scrap OF
history seems to be forgotten by the
old residenters. and evidently the new
generation have not read of It, In the
files of the old Alta Californian of Oc-
tober 26, 1868, is the following para
graph:
There are in this port at this time
three vessels of war of his imperial
majesty Alexander ii of Russia. More.
we believe. are expected. There is also
in the harbor of New York a Russian
fleet. There are rumors that an alli-
ance has been entered into be-
tween our country and Russia.
Throughout the whole of our troubles
Russia alone of all the nations of the
world has acted toward us with re-
spect. consideration and friendship"

Opium Den in Pen

Omaha. Neb.. April 27.-Rumors re-
gaIding the use and procu. ing of OPT
um by convicts in the state peniten-
tiary at Lincoln have been verified.
A painstaking investigation disclosed
that the penitentiary is the harbor Of
huge opium den.
A startling number of the convicts
are addicted to the use of the drug.
and men who were once within the
walls agree i'm the assertion that con-
tractors and IT usties'' assist in the
smuggling because the dope fiends do
double work while under the influence
of opium.
The extraordinary feature of the sit
uation is that Warden Beemer avows
he cannot check the evil The laws
provide for the punishment of only
citizen employees smuggling the drug,
he says. None others can be punished.
and so his only recourse is conffscating
the opium when smuggling Is detected
