Results Are Disappointing.


1.-THE state for many years at great
expense to the Taxpayers, has maintained
a system of negro education which has
produced disappointing results, and am
opposed to the perpetuation of this sys-
| tenn. My own idea is that the character
] of education for the negro ought to be
changed IT, after forty years of earnest
effort, and the expenditure of fabulous
| sums of money to educate his head. we
have only succeeded in making a criminal
| of him and impairng his usefulness and
| efficiency as a laborer, wisdom would
suggest that we make another expert.
ment, and see If we cannot improve him
| by educating his hand and his heart.
| There must be a moral substratum on
which to build or YOU cannot make a
| desirable citizen.
| The negro as a race is devoid of that
element. He has never felt the guilt of
sin. The restraining influence of moral
seruples, or the goading of an outraged
conscience are unknown to the real negro.
| Slavery is the only process by which he
has ever been partially civilized. God AL
mighty created the negro for a menial--
| he is essentially a servant. In every age
>
that his civilization will last only so long
| as he is under control of the superior race
| that inculcated it. When left to himself
he has invariably gone back to the bar
barism of his native jungles. While few
mixed breeds and freaks of the race may
possess qualities which justify them to
aspire above that station. the fact still
remains that the race is fit for that and
nothing more. At any rate, that is all
that hS will ever accomplish in Mississippi
and as II is in Mississippi, so will ii
be In all the states ultimately. The white
man will not and should not share sover-
eighty and dominion with him"
Quotes Abraham Lincoln.
The Governor here quoted what Abra-
ham Lincoln said about the negro in
1858, viz. Il am not, nor ever have been
in favor of bringing about in any way the
social or political equality of the white
and black races; | am not, nor ever have
been in favor of making voters or Jurors
of negroes, nor of qualifying them to
hold office; nor to intermarry with the
white people; and | will say in addi-
ton to this that there is a physical diff
ference between the white and the black
races which ] believe will forever forbid
the two races living together on terms of
social and political equality. And mas
much as they cannot so live, while they
do remain together there must be the
position of superior and inferior, and |
as much as any other man, am in favor
of having the superior position assigned
to the white race
The Governor holds that if that senti-
ment was true when uttered by Lincoln,
It is true today. and proposes to stand
on it.
Brief attention is called TO many other
matters-all in an ordinary business-like
way. but special stress is laid on drunken
ness in office and the legislature is urged
to provide for the punishment of all such.
The legislature is advised to take hold
of any subject 1t sees fit

LAND, STOCK AND CROP

Farmers who have held their
wheat almost year to get the
promised dolllr a bushel for it have
not found much comfort in recent
market reports. They still have the
wheat and will soon have to store
up another crop with it if they
stick to the delusion that it. will
bring dollar, whether condition S
justify it or not. Counting insur-
ance, interest and loss in stora ge
holding wheat has been a pretty
costly business this time; but It
hasn't cost those who got up the
scheme anything. so they will prob
ably continue to advocate it.
Kentucky will soon have the dis
tinction OF having the largesr breed
ing farm tor thoroughbred horses
in the world. j. B, Haggin, the
millionaire horsemen, whose breed
ing farm is near Lexington. has
been gradually adding new pur-
chases to his already large farm,
till now it includes $4.5Oo acres
of some of the best bluegrass land
in the State. His last purchase
made last week was the Rogers
farm containing 335 acres, for
which he paid SIPS per acre. MIR.
Haggin's holdings, large as they
are, are not yet sufficient to furnish
his horses the desired grazing aud
