10 Southern Industrial Parliament

The Southern Industrial Parliament
opened at Washington city Tuesday
Gov. Glenn, of Northt Carolina. was
elected president, and in his opening
address said relative to immigration
'But let me say this-we don't want
the ,riff-raff of the world. We want
no men who say there is no God and
who stain their hands with their fell
lows blood. We want the right, the
true and the good
He said the attempts made to per-
suade white immigrants that they had
to be put on an equality with the Afro
American were based on falsehoods'
1--WE give the Afro-American all he's
entitled to under law he declared
"but there's one line we draw-the
line of social equality. We think the
white man is a better one than the
Afro-American, and we stick to that
Help us to spread that doctrine
In the matter of blood outlines
North Carolina stands way up on the
list: the Wilmington massacre of 1898
was one of the blOOdiest that has dis
graced the state, and it was only one
of many. For the governor of state
to publicly declare that one class OF
citizens is better than another class
is criminal, and is virtual invitation
to the alleged superior class to tram
pie on the rights of the weaker. Gov
Glenn should be heartily ashamed OF
himself.

THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.


The Washington Post, in a recent
issue, arrives at the following con-
clusions in regard to the Fifteenth
amendment:
1T is among the things that were
and is now almost universally regard-
ed as a gigantic mistake which would
take rank among the great political
crimes of history but for the excuse
Of Ignorance Had it's authors
known the facts of the situation as
they were speedily made known by
events wholesale and simultaneous
cnfranchisement of all the freedmen
never would have been attempted. 1t
is a perversion of history
We fail to see where is the evidence
to prove that that enactment is al
most universally regarded as a gi-
gantic mistake. If such were the
case, there would have been a great
demand for it's repeal from some OF
the political parties or candidates. or
from some of the Southern legisla-
ture SO recently in session; but with
the exception Of some crank from the
hinder, part of Mississippi no one has
made the least move in that direction.
Moreover, for the Post to accuse such
men as Blaine, Boutwell,, Thad. Ste
vens and their contemporaries OF lg-
nOrance is the most monumental
specimen of asininity that the TWEEN
tieth century has as yet produced
The United States has never had
grarder body of statesmen assem-
bled in the capitol than those who
enacted the Fifteenth Amendment, to
render futile the efforts of the South
ern legislature to substitute for slav-
cry a system of peonage far more vii,
famous and damnable than slavery
ITSELF This is no perversion OF his
tOry-it is the record.

"THE NEW NORTH"

The Charleston News and Courier is
much helped up by an article which
Nj. Hamilton w. Mabie has contribut-
ed to a magazine, under the title OF
The New North" The News and
Courier declares:
1T is refreshing. for instance, to
hear a Northern man of Mr.. Mabie's
literary prominence declaring that the
day will come when statues of Lee
and Stonewall Jackson will find place
in the squares Of Northern cities as
types of ideal Americans, stainless in
character, heroic in self-sacrifice, fol-
lowing duty with unshrinking loyalty
and at an immense cost Mr.. Mabie
also expects statues to be erected by
the Southern people to Lincoln
And said journal goes on further to
express itself thus:
IL, as Mr.. Mabie alleges, these are
some of the views which are gaining
wider and firmer hold in The New
North of which he writes, the day of
perfect understanding between the Sec
tons is verify near at hand
Now it seems to us that this cOnclu-
sion is based upon very unsubstantial
premises. One swallow does not make
a summer; and we see no reason for
considering Mr. Mabie a man of such
commanding influence as to be able to
do anything special toward bringing
forward the consummation he so con.
flently predicts The brethren of the
Presbyterian household of faith admit,
theoretically, that it is good and pleas
ant for brethren to dwell together in
unity; but when it comes to the actual
getting together an ordinary bed-bug
can beat them in celebrity. Mr.. Ma
bie's New North is not q New North at
all it is the same old North that pro-
duced Vallandingham and burned
Afro-American orphan asylums in New
York City-the North that mobbed
William Lloyd Garrison and slew
Elijah P. Loveioy. That element does
not erect statues no honor grand per-
sonal attributes. It's heroes are of the
type of Herr Most. Thomas Dixon
Vardan:an and Jesse James.

In discussing the Ogden educational
gathering the Charleston News and
Courier protests against the eloquent
tribute paid by the New York Even
ing Post to Messrs. Aldermen, Denny
and Hill as being the real recon
structors of the South" and asserts
that. ''before they ever came out of
the bushes, or ever turned a hand
to help the South other strong souls
and better souls were laying founda-
tons upon which the educational
fabric of the South has been erected"
In this that journal is correct. The
public school system of the South was
organized by the Afro-American leg
islators OF reconstruction days and
one-half of the race in the Southland
had been removed from the ranks of
the illiterate before Mr. Ogden and
his hoi polloi ever lent hand.

PRESBYTERIAN JIM CROWlSM

At the General Assembly Of the
Presbyterian church at Winona Lake
Ind. Monday. it was voted to reunite
with. the Cumberland Presbyterian
body. which withdrew from the orig
inal denomination in 1910.
The slavery question was the cause
of the original separation, and in the
reunion the race question plays an i'm
portont part. The Northern Presby-
terians have given Up the principles
for which they have stood so long
ard have accepted the Jimcrow ideas
of the South in permitting the estah-
Ishment of separate presbyteries.
Not satisfied with the injury they
had inflicted en- the Afro-Anerican the
attanlrt was made to further insult
the race and place it in bad light

"The negro race as whole are the
most shiftless, the most ragged, filthy,
idle. worthless and degraded of any
people of whom I have personal
knowledge It is from the above
UNANIMOUSLY apparent that Bishop
Browns personal and other varieties
of knowledge do not include an init
mate acquaintance with the United
States census, or he would be
ashamed to mention as facts what has
been so thoroughly disproyed. And
it seems that despite his Northern
antecedents, he might manage to hold
his job without diving SO deep and
coming up so dirty. .,rz~

deal Of risk In inviting complaints OF

agent to sell II under this guarantee:
IF you have any fault to find with
this paint, either now In putting 1t on
or hereafter in the wear, tell your deal
er about 1t.
I'VE authorize him to do what is
right at our expense"
The following story tells how little
the risk Is:
H Asher & Co. hardware dealers
Rhinebeck, N Y, have sold Devoe from
'76 to now; have sold thousands OF
gallons and have had just one COM
plant In all this time.
Three sides Of house were perfect;
the fourth was as bad as the three
were good.
Explanation-It rained the night be-
fore the fourth side was painted; and
the painters didn't wait for the wood
to dry.
What Is done In such q case? What
ever the dealer, who sold the paint
considers 1t fair to do. We leave 1t to
him. He may not do exactly what we

agreed to do pretty much everything
that both of them swore by their
Ikons and their ancestors that they
wouldn't do.
Anderson Daily Mail: Newberry
county's action in voting out the dis
pensary will have the effect of MAX
ing more certain similar result In
counties in which elections are to be
held. Newberry Is the home Of H.
H. Evans, chairman of the state
board of control, and of Cole. L.
Blease, who has made himself the
foremost champion Of the dispen.
sary in the state under the present
management. II these men could not
save the dispensary in their own
county they could hardly hope 10
save It in other counties. In fact the
other counties will doubtless regard
1t as a safe rule to follow the example
Of the county in which the chiet
exponents Of the dispensary live.
Charleston Post: One of the state
directors, Mr. L. w. Boykin. has
asked to be heard before the investi-
eating commission In explanation OF
some of the things that have been
inferred against his administration.
That Is the right course and the one
that should be taken by every OF
ficial whose name has been brought
into the matter. Former COWS.
Evans and McSweeney and Senator
Tillman should come forward with
demands that they be permitted 10
tell what they know Of the manage
ment Of the dispensary. Various Wit
nesses have referred to special knowl-
edge they are alleged to have had OF
unwholesome conditions and an ex-
planation Of their understanding is
in order.
Southern Christian Advocate: NO
county in the state has better common
schools than Marlboro. For years
Marlboro has rather surpassed her
sister counties in the number ano
grade Of its schools and the length OF
the school term. This has not oeen
done with dispensary profits. 1t SHOWS
how II can be done In other counteS.
Greenwood has no dispensarles. YORK
county has but one. There is no eV-
idence that either Of these counties
are woefully behind in the matter OF
schools There Is no fallacy more
glaring than that the prohts OF tne
LIQUOR business can build up or help
anything. AS we'll try to prove tnal
q man will make money by giving
somebody all of his money on conol-
ton Of receiving ten per cent back as
try to prove that the dispensary ol
any other liquor profits Will heip any
institution of the land.

FAME OF The CITADEL.
One Of the Best Military Schools in the
world

One Of the Best Military Schools in the
World.
The war department OF the United
States, and 1t Is the war department
Of a world power, has officially
classified the South Carolina Military
academy as one Of the seven, includ-
ing West Point, best schools for the
training Of soldiers in the country.
This has been done for a number Of
years, and the standing Of the school
has been securely fixed so far as the
Federal governments seal of approval
has weight.
It seems to US that this marked
distinction should bring the citadel
a larger prominence than 1t now
enjoys. Its popularity in South Caro-
lima was never greater than 1t Is to-
day; II attracts number Of students
from neighboring states, and last year
half q dozen Cuban boys were on Its
rolls II 1t were known. however, as 1t
should be known, throughout the
United States that the instruction
given in military science at the cita-
del is so high. greater number OF
youths ambitious for a soldiers ca
reer might be drawn to II.
In short the citadel has earned In
military circles a repute the full value
Of which Is perhaps not understood
in South Carolina. II might be that
this Is worthy of advertisement even
In foreign countries. Japan and Chi
ma have been sending young men to
America for education for a number
Of years, and scores Of northern
colleges, great and small, have ORR
entail students. Perhaps II the excel
lence of our military academy, to-
gether with the comparative small
cost at which 1t offers its advantages,
could be brought to public attention
in these eastern countries, through
the American consulates and other
agencies, a number OF boys from in
fiuential families could be brought
here.
Meanwhile, the high position that
the citadel has reached should at
least protect 1t from assaults at home.
While its fame beyond the states
borders is limited to a single depart
ment Of science, its excellence in that
has made the school more widely
known perhaps than Is any South
Carolina institution. This ought to
give II immunity from harassing in
reference on the part Of persons in
capable of forming a true estimate OF
its work, its mission and its achieve
ments.-News and Courier.
