DEGREES NEGRO AGITATORS
Mrs. Terrell Warns Her People to
Beware of Them.
Defends Her own Action in Voting
for the Dismissal Of CardOzH,
Her Former Pupil.

Mrs. Mary c. Terrell. member Of the
board of education. is indignant over
the manner in which local negro agita-
tors are handling the question OF the
dismissal Of President +. {. Cardoza.
Mrs. Terrell denounces their course, and
accuses them of "hoodwinking" the ignO-
rant members Of their race.
1T is very unfortunate that a number
of colored people in this city are trying
to make "a false construction Of the ac-
tion OF the board in removing Mr. Car
doza, and endeayoring TO make others
believe that his removal is an injustice
TO the whole colored race" she said. THE
race question never enters into the ac-
ton of the school board.
