How long will the flow of cans tanent the importance of the edG- cation of the negro continue? They are already so over educat- ed that the ranks of lawyers, preachers and doctors are over- crowded and it is almost impossi- ble to get laborers and cooks. High pressure education has been tried in this country for at least
 fifty years with the result that the census shows a larger per centage of capital crimes and misdemeanofs thar any other country. It may be impossible to show any correlation between crime and education but is it not impossible that there is in our teaching @ vicious element or 8 lack of viftuous element that has given us this bad preemf- hence.

Trickery, fraud and bribery is charg-

matter of the government building In

unjust for it to be permitted. The
Times now charges that Mr.. Breazeale
has been corruptly Influenced by
bribery, both as to the bridge and the
government building. and says that
such secret and clandestine opera
tions on the part OF Congressman
is shame and adisgrace to the conn.
