in that it shows to what straits
the negro free schools would be-
reduced by making them depend
ent entirely upon the taxes paid
by negroes, which step Governor
Davis has openly declared in
favor Of.
Such a step would practically
close down the negro free schools

RANDOM THOUGHTS.
(By The Editor.)

If we can bring ourselves to
see in labor something that ought
to be done for the world, and
thus dignity labor, we shall look
at our daily toll more kindly and
not drop it every day on the
stroke of the clock as if it were
a thing abhorrent. Let us take
a pride in our work to do it well,
and if perchance we work for
someone else, to give good meas
ure. There is humor, and yet
there is anunderlying lack of re-
spect for his labor in the story of
the hod-carrier who had brought
his load up to the top of the
building and at the stroke of
twelve carried it all the way
down again because HE WASH t
