In descriptions of the negro race in the United States 1t is commonly taken for granted that the average northern negro, by reason of his environments, is the superior of the average southern negro, but the statistics do not bear out that comparison. In farm ownership in 1900 there were only 1,761 farms operat- ed by negroes in the whole North At lantic division, 12225 in the North Gen. tral division and 337 in the Western division, the three comprising all the eastern, middle and western States. But in the South Atlantic and South Central divisions, comprising the whole South, the total number of farms operated by negroes was 732, ,362

THE PROGRESSIVE NEGRO.

The negro continues to do well. On the last three days of this month the National Negro Business League will hold a convention at Atlanta, Georgia. This organization has accomplished re- markable results, and it's statistics show wonderful progress made by the thrifty and enterprising element of the negro race in the United States. AffiH- ated with the national organization are some two hundred local business mems representing nearly all branch es of commercial business, manufactur- ing, banking, etc There are now twen- ty-two banks in the country operated entirely by negroes, and exclusively with negro capital, for negroes. Eight of these banks are in Mississippi. It doesn't appear that any has been es- tablished in the northern States, while the great majority of the negro business men are in the South,

GooD ROADS BY RAD MEN.

Tn Connecticut the good roads are all made by.good men, or, at least, by men who have succeeded in keeping out of iail. But there are those in this State who think that convict labor might be used on the roads here, as it is in some other States. In some of the southern States the convicts are employed in making roads. Judge Fave of Georgia, who has had twenty years experience in working convicts as road builders, says: "They are the best and cheapest road builders. While working convlcts not single overt act was committed, or a single child, woman or man mo- lected, or one dollars worth of proper ty depredated on" Mechlenburg coun- ty, North Carolina, has the finest mac adamized roads, and it is being done with convict labor. It costs an average of twenty-five cents day to guard feed and care for, convict labor when it is managed on business principles, The effect of this work on the convict is said to be excellent. Statistics show that 90 per cent. of those who are worked in the open air, properly fed and guarded, return to their families and cease to be a charge or a menace to the State, while of those who are kept in prison or are worked in mines, sawmills or similar places, 85 per cent. become hardened criminals.
 This is good testimony How would 1t do, for beginning, to set automo~ bilists who use our good roads and break the law on them. to work on them when they offend and are caught?

] interesting study-not as maker of love matches and promoter of mar rage, but a manufacturer of bits Of sticks tipped with phosphorus and
 birthstone and of tiny wax tapers, cal- culated to catch spark and start a flame of more definite quality than that of any love phllter. It is inti- mated that not all French matches will do this, for French matches are mo- toriously bad. That is not the only mo- torious feature of their manufacture. The Government of France has a monopoly of the match business in that country. It operates the factories and 1t keeps foreign matches out of the country, or at least it has the sole right to import them, so that there is practically no competition for the Governments product, however poor the quality.
 As a skin" the French match mo- Snopoly seems to be great success. In 1904 France sold $6,S3412O worth of matches and made $5,OS4.355 out of the transaction. In 1905 the receipts amounted to a few thousand dollars more than in the year previous, and the profits were also a little greater than then. Practically all those near ly seven million dollars worth of matches were used by the French peo- pie, for only $501.44 worth were ex- ported. Quite evidently the Govern ment control of the match industry is not in the interest of cheap matches for the people, but rather in the inter- est of revenue fo rthe Government out of the peoples necessity, for their money at the price charged for them
 Possibly if the industry were open to private enterprise the proportion of price and profits would be as great but lthe figures would not be tntaljzingIv flung in the consumers faces. Appar- ently France is proud of it's skill in ex- tracting revenue from the people. But there Is room for even greater skill. 1 If reports are true. It has been hg- ured that it costs the French Gov ernment $S4.74 to manufacture a million matches of the cheapest kind
 while it can buy foreign matches at f-' ." thAAAAAOAl' LI6 6ApSIS6t the eX- cessive price and the poor quality
 have made the Government subject to repeated criticism in it's legislative
 halls and have furnished the basis for some strong arguments against Gov Iernment monopoly of industries. The States method of doing business must meet with approval in some circles, for 1t pays It's 1,429 women employees practically double the average wages received by women workers in France

TWO RooFEn LAKES

A roofed lake exists in Siberia near Obdorsk. This lake is nine miles wide and seventeen miles long. It's roof, a natural one, is made of salt.
 Geologists say that long ago great part of the water of the lake of Ob- dorsk must have suddenly evaporated leaving huge salt crystals afloat on the surface. These crystals in time caked together Thus the water was entirely covered over with them as though frozen.
 The lake in 1878 dropped three feet It found an underground outlet into the Obi river, but the salt crust was so thick upon it that 1t retained it's own level Not dropping at all, if formed of salt three feet high over the whole body of water.
 On the MangishIak peninsula, in the Caspian sea, there is another lake that has a roof of salt crystals thick and strong enough to allow men and horses to cross it on foot.-Philodelphia Bulle- tin.

THE GOSPEL OF D1scoNTENT.
Radicalism of Bryan, Roosevelt and
 Hearst is Popular.

Hearst is Popular.
 What could be more amusing thhan the consternation in the ranks of con- servative democrats of New York who favor Colonel Bryans candidacy for president at the menace" of Willie Hearst for governor?
 Different in personal character as they are, Hearst is political child of Bryan, Perhaps he Is not a creditable kind of offspring, but everybody, we think, is aware that the prominence of Hearst in democratic affairs could not have been brought about except for the broadcast sowing of Bryan Ideas in the campaign of 1896 and 1900. Colonel Bryan is personally attractive. As the country has come to know him better, it has easily been lead to for get the fires which he started only ten years ago. Of far greater danger to the country than any of the schemes which he advocated, including the free silver at 16 to 1 programme, was, his powerful, if unconscious, preaching of the gospel of discomfort. The soil was fertile for it's reception and that 1t has continued to flourish luxurIantly under the watering of Hearst was not to be prevented.
 If we are to have Bryan for presi- dent we must school ourselves to ao- cept the assistance of the radical ele- ments of the democratic party. Col onel Bryan himself fully understands this and he Is prompt to seize occasion for the reassertion In general terms of his former views. The lesson for the sane and safe" in New York to learn is that in swalling Bryanism they must gulp down hide, horns. hoofs and all. Tn short, If MT. Hearst shall be candidate for governor of New York whether as an independent or as a democrat, his opponents must expect no comfort from MT. Bryan in their strivings to to defeat him. In 1908 can- dldate Bryan will need the votes of the lower east side not less than those of Murray Hill, and he will be very care~ ful to offer no offense to any group of persons whose support can possibly contribute to his triumph.
 Those of us who have opposed Bry- an heretofore, if we accept him, will do it upon the theory that his states manship Is broader and sounder than he pretends it to be. We shall trust the man rather than his preachments in the belief that it is not in nature to press them to their final results.

QUITE 4 PERSON.

At the International Women Suffrage convention in Copenhagen the story of one of Womans triumphs was thus told: A young woman of St. John, N. B., not long ago passed her exam ination at the law school with high honorg. but on applying for permission to practice was refused by the Su- preme court on the ground that the statute said, Persons shall be entitled to practice law" etc., and women were not persons. The affair was much dis cussed by the press. Shortly after ward a woman was arrested for drunkenness. The next day when she was fined by the police magistrate she refused to pay on the ground that she was not a person and mot amenable to the law" The judge asked her who advised her to make that plea, and she answered that nobody did; she read the papers and found It out for her self The judge was obliged to rule that by the decision of the Supreme court she could go free. The legisla- ture then passed an act declaring wom- en to be persons, and under that the woman lawyer was enabled to practise her profession,
 Woman is indeed a person, and don't you forget it. She is also a person who cannot be kept down, and 1t is a goou thing for a grovelling and suffering world that she cannot be.

HoPE INSTEAD OF FEAR.

Perhaps hope is as powerful an inl- pulse as fear Anyhow, it Is more cheering. Therefore change that is to be made in the postal service will make the employees feel better. Fining of enployes as a means of enforcing discipline in the postal service, sys- tenn that has been in operation for many years, is to be abolished. The first assistant postmaster-general, MT. Hitchcock, who has jurisdiction over all postoffice employees, after a years observation of this means of disciplin- ing, has reached the conclusion that 1t is detrimental, rather than helpful. He proposes to establish in it's place a uni form system of efficiency records which will be put into operation as soon as perfected. To that end he has started the assistant superintendent, John A. Holmes, of his bureau, on tour of in- spection of Ghe largest postoffices of the United States. Dr. Holmes will confer with the postmasters and their assistants regarding the introduction of the proposed change.
 This, of course, doesn't mean that the 25e, 1000 or more employees in the postal service are to be allowed to do their work just as they please. Under MT. Hitchcock's new plan, which will be used as a basis for all increases and reductions in salary employees will be given to understand that when they become generally careless or inef1i- cient a reduction in salary will fol- low. Promotions will go only to em- ployes who merit advancement on their efficiency records. This looks like im- provement, and we hope it is.

victory with 1t. Colonel Bryan is the same sort of democratic asset. We cannot get along without him. Events have been so shaped in recent years that his dangerous notions are no longer possible of realization. Much good is left in him that can be utilized for party aggrandizement. and we have faith that he will himself be the largest obstacle to the fruition of hurtful growths from the seeds he planted.-Charleston News & Courier.

A reform in school-books has a good idea in regard to an improvement in the arithmetics. He says: You see, the present-day arithmetic deals too much with suppositious apples which cannot be eaten; intangible oranges, unshoot- able marbles and pears, of which boy is supposed to give several to Willie and then find how many he has left to satisfy his own appetite. Instead of all that suppose we say Higgins made three hits off Sparks and Jude got two. How many did both make? Or getting into higher mathematics, we say Kelley was at bat sixteen times in the last four games and made five hits. What was his batting average, or percent age? Or, we might go still further and say the Reds have won fifty-fve games and lost forty-two. How many more will they have to win to get in the first division if the clubs behind them stand still? The problems are many, and the boys would jump at the chance to work them out.

Scott Cummins of Winchester, Kan sas, has seen a few things in his time. For instance, this, which happened when he came to Snake river one day with three thousand cattle: The river was too dangerous for swimming, but after following the bank short dist ance the foreman found giant red wood that had fallen across the river Fortunately the tree was hollow, and making a chute, they had no trouble in driving the cattle through the log. The count fell short some three hundped head, but about that time a distant lowing was heard. Their surprise may be imagined when on looking about they found that the cattle had wander ed off into a hollow limb.
