barking Japanese spaniel that belongs
to Miss Roosevelt.

comment on Mr.. LongwOrth of one by

people at many points. Camera tiends

Writes Letter to Atlanta Constitution

Bishop w. W. Duncan Of Spartan

to the Atlanta Constitution. Late
experiences make it imperative that
say Just word on tho subject OF

First, I think we have been indis.

questions affecting tho negro. We

have become irritat d and excited

negro I think, Is naturally disposed
to be peaceable, docile and ready to
keep in mind his proper place among
his white friends. Generally, he is
not resentful when kindly and pat
iently dealt with. We too often
forget bis changed relations from
the days Of 1855.
Secondly, the better class Of white
people and negroes have the solution
In their own hands. There must be
. proper regard for the rights OF both
Glasses. I fell assureed that the wise
and thoughtful negroes under the in
huence of the better class of whites,
will restrain the passions and evil dis
positions of the former and secure
that judicious treatment OF all CLASSES

much any species OF conduct which

Thirdly, moral consideration should
