Track at SiIper Spring
To Replace Brightwood
Harness F1orsemen Planning New Enterprise
at Cost of 00-Breunningers Have
Promising Green Trotter.

The patrons and members of the
Brightwood Driving Club have been
worried over the prospect of losing the
course in the near future.
III only legal steps taken in the matter
up TO date is an inquiry made by the
secretary of the Interior into the right
or the club TO maintain n fence on Gov
eminent land, or TO use such land for
any purpose. Corporation Counsel L.
H Thomas has been asked 10 make his
opinion known on the subject. Ever
since the question of the extension of
sixteenth street has been a subject of
discussion amorg the residents of the
District and the land for the roadway
condemned, persons interested in the
welfare of Brightwood trotting track
have known that its tenure was not a
matter Of many years.
Plan New Track.
Nevertheless. the club has each year
made more or less repairs about the
stables. grandstand and club house. and
has improved the track proper at a
cost of several hundred dollars. When
ever the Government asserts its rights
the track viii be divided In half by the
extension OF Sixteenth street
a group of moneyed men, who take
an interest in harness horses. has dis
cussed informally for five years the
project of leasing about twenty acres
Of land in the vicinity of Silve- Spring,
in Montgomery county, and construct
ing modern tTotting track TO take the
place of BrightwoOd track. Silver Spring
has been visited by certain persons in
terested, who have made a selection OF
what they believe to be an ideal spot

plant would be about $4,000. The cost
of the track construction is estimated
at from 5000 to 5000.
Easily Reached.
Silver Spring is easily reached over
good roads, and if Brightwood should
fail the other plan would materialize.

speedway and prefer TO race for money

The President On
The Negro Question
Continued from page Ave)

the other hand should understand that
every lynching represents by just so
much a loosening of the bands of civ
ilization that the spirit of lynching in
evitably throws into prominence in the
community all the foul and evil creatures
part in the torture of a human being
without having his own moral nature
permanently lowered. Every lynching
means just so much moral deterioration
in all the children who have ay knowl-
edge of it, and therefore just the next
generation of Americans.
Let justice be both sure and swift;
but let it be justice under tire law, and
not the wild and crooked savagery Of a
mob.
There is another matter which has a
direct bearing upon this matter of
lynching and of the brutal crime which
sometimes calls h forth and at other
times merely furnishes the excuse for
its existence. 1t is out of the question
for our people as a whole permanently
to rise by treading down any of their
own number. Even those who them
scelves for the moment profit by such
maltreatment of their fellows Will IN
the long run also suffer. No more
shortsighted policy can be imagined
than, in the fancied interest of one
class to prevent the education of an
other class. The free public school, the
chance for each boy or girl to get

foundation of our whole political situa-
ton. In every community the poorest
citizens, those who need the schools
most would be deprived of them if they
only received school facilities proper
toned to the taxes they paid. This is
as true of one portion of our country
as of another. 1t is as true for the
negro as for the white man. The white
man, If he is wise, Will decline to al
low the negroes in a mass to grow TO
manhood and womanhood without
education. UnquestiOnably education
such as is obtained in our public
schools does not do everything toward
making a man a good citizen; but 1t
does much. The lowest and most bru-
tai criminals, those for instance who
commit the tIllllt u rape dlG III lAlH
great majority men who have had
either no education or very little; just
as they are almost invariably men who
own no property; for the man who puts
money by out of his earnings, like the
man who acquires education, is usually
lifted above mere brutal criminality. OF
course the best type of education fol
the cOlored man, taken as a whole, is
such education as is conferred il
schools like Hampton and Tuskegee
where the boys and girls, the young
men and young women, are trained
industrially as well as in the ordinary
public school branches. The graduates
of these schools turn out we'll in thu
great majority of cases, and hardl,
any Of them become criminals, while
what little criminality there is never
takes the form of that brutal violenc,
which invites lynch law. Every gra.
duate of these schools-and for the
matter Of that every other colored mar
or woman-who leads a life so usefu

and honorable as to win the goodwill
and respect of those whites whose
neighbor he or she is, thereby helps the
whole colored race as it. can be helped
in no other way; for next to the negro
himself, the man who can do most to
help the negro is his white neighbor
who lives near him; and our steady eff
fort should be to better the relations
between the two. Great though the
benefit of these schools has been to
their cOlOred pupils and to the colored
people, it may well be questioned whe-
Their the benefit has not been at least
as great to the white people among
whom these colored pupils live after
they graduate.
BE it remembered, Furthermore, that
the individuals who, whether from fol-
ly from evil temper, from greed for
office, or in a spirit of mere base dema-
gogy, indulge in the innammatory and
incendiary speeches and writings
which tend to arouse mobs and to bring
about lynching, not only thus excite the
mob, but aso tend by what criminoIo-
gists call Suggestion" greatly to in
crease the likelihood of a repetition of
the very crime against which they are
inVeighing. When the mob is COM
| posed of the people Of one race and
! the man lynched is of another race, the
men who i'm their Speeches and writings
! either excite or justify the action tend,
of course to dXcite a bitter race feeling
and to cause the people of the opposite
race to lose sight of the abominable
act of the criminal himself; and in adj
dition, by the prominence they give to
the hidcous deed they Undoubtedly tend
to excite in other brutal and depraved
natures thoughts of committing it.
Swift, relentless and orderly punish
ment under the law is the only way by
which criminality of this type can per.
manently be suppressed.

LONDON, September n. - What
might be characterized as almost an
other era in modern shipbuilding has
been inaugurated by the successful
launching of the mammoth Mauretania

great vessel slipped down the ways at
the yards of the builders, Swan, Hunt

the new leviathan will rest upon the
waters of the world among the great
list of giants of the dep which have
come into being of recent years. Even
the Great Eastern, which still main
tains its place in shipbuilding annals as
a sort of standard of comparison, is
dwarfed by the Mauritania, the major
points of the respective craft being:
Great Eastern, length COZ feet; breadth
so feet; displacement, $1,000 tons; pro-
pulsion, paddle, screw and sail; speed
fourteen knots. Mauritania, length
$50 feet breadth, IS feet; displacement
$4,000 tons; propulsion, quarduple
screws: speed, twenty-five knots.

Besides the attention attracted to
the new steamship as a marvel in the
mechanical world, the maiden dip of
the Mauretania morked a function in
the social world. The Dowager Ouch
ess Roxburghe stood as sponsor to
vessel and there were present a large
number Of distinguished people includ-
ing the first lcrd of the admiralty, the
American and other foreign consuls,
government officials and members of
the peerage.
In the construction of the Maure-
tania no effort has been spared to in
sure the comfort and safety of the
passengers, the vessel being provided

500 first-class, 500 second-class and 1900
300 third-class passengers, while the
item of safety has been cared for by
the construction of 175 separate water
tight compartments. The Mauritania
is as nearly unsuitable as a ship can
be made.
To comply with the admiralty re-
quircments, the new liner will be fitted
for an armament of twenty six-inch
guns, together with an arrangement of
the steering gear and boiler rooms be-
hind the protection of side bunBers so
that she can be turned into an armored
cruiser at the shortest notice.

ROME, November PA well-known
American professor of archaeology,
whose name is withheld. has present
ed a project rivaling that being car
ried out by Prof, Waldstein, who is
directing the excavations at Hercula-

dredge the Tiber for the purpose of re-
towering innumdrable works of art
embedded in the bottom. The chief
cost of the undertaking would be in
DETECTING the course of the river, as
was formerly advocated by Garibaldi.
The American idea is to meet this by
international contributions. The gov
eminent and the municipality are not
likely to consent to the project lest it
be said that it was accepted more for
the sake of the Improvement of Rome
