Joseph Smith, OF the Educational
Publishing Association, testified yester-
day afternoon before the legislative COM
mittee that the last list submitted fol
the bids by Librarian Kennedy we're Of
such q nature that had there been any
friction between himself and Kennedy
he would not have submitted bids. 1t
was suggested that the bid offered by
this house was cheaper than the bid OF
the Putnams, but Kennedy spoke up
and said that the Putnam bid was 500
lees. Chairman Byrd ct once asked him
how, according to his statement of We'd
nesdsy that he bad not opened the bids.
did he know the Putnam bid. Kennedy
was evidently confused. He said that 8
letter accompanied the bid, which ear
ried the figures.
The most interesting feature Of the
day WAS Librarian Kennedy's request,
which was granted, TO withdraw remarks
he made Wednesday rejecting on his
subordinates and on the Richmond book
dealers
Several of the library employees will 60
on the stand today to answer the alleg4-
tons of Kennedy in hestatement which
he Withdrew yesterday. They will at
tempt to show that while Kennedy ex-
cused the statement on the ground that il
was MAIDS in the heat Of argument, as a
matter of fact, it had been typewrtten
and in his possession for several days.
The question will also be raised today
a. to Mr.. Kennedy's right TO n3e the
library stenographer and other State
employees in preparing his individual
evidence in this case.

THE WINNERS.

The Chicago Chronicle is worried
and claims that the Afro-American
complains too much over the wrongs
he suffers and that the world gets
tired of the racket he makes.
Now, in the opinion of THE AP-
PEAL, that is the very reason why
the complaints are made and why
they should be made. And further
more the point at issue is no longer
a debatable question, but is res adiudi
.cata by the highest authority, the
Savior of mankind, who still is held
in the highest esteem except within
the precincts of Chicago University.
IF the Chronicle will re-read the par
able Of the Unjust Judge, it will prob
ably admit that there are some
grounds for doubling the correctness
of it's conclusions.
And moreover, the Chronicles prac.
tice does not correspond with it's
theory: for it has been bowling and
whining over the delinquencies of ex,
Mayor Dunno for the last few years
without any regard for how the world
falt about the matter-almost every
iss"e has fairly teemed with com
plTints about Dunno, and the Chron,

FOR GOVERNOR OF ARKANSAS.


An erudite legislator has introduced
a segregation bill in the Arkansas leg,
islature; and in a communication to
the Little Rock Gazette, defends his
action in the following inimitable
style:
ut is not the intention of the sup
porters of segregation to show ami
mostly against the colored race But
we feel it but just that a populous and
Well-educated race should not be a
burden to those who happen to come
in contact with them in business
way. He should be taught honesty
and to pay his taxes, and in most in
stances, if their nomadic members
who roam from place to place tax
lodging and office-d lodging, were made
to pay their poll tax it would show
that their school would have plenty of
funds. ....r

or future generation to say to me or

WISE IN NAME ONLY.

John S. Wise of New York, son of
Brown says:
"But just now l am more interested
in education in the South What the
South needs is more educated white
men to do the efficient work in pro-
fessional and industrial lines in the
next few years. All over that section
to-day there is need of trained and
broadly educated men.

Says the Chicago Inter-Ocean:

"Mohammedan Hindoo who founded
the new Mchammedan university at
Agra was as pronounced humanist
as our DR.. Harper. AS the latter strove
to reconcile Christianity with modern
thought, SO did the former strive to
preserve spiritual Islam and marry it
to the new learning"
AS Dr.: Harper did not succeed very
completely in his striving, perhaps it
would be we'll for some competent
authority to strive to reconcile modern
thought with Christianity. The two,
especially in the United States, seems
to be decidedly at variance; and Mr..
Stead says that modern thought has
sent the church to the Devil.

hands of the black folks of the South
should be trained to do the work of the
farm and the plantation
Mr.. Wise is unable to discern the
signs of the times, owing to unfortu
nate early training. The Afro-Ameri,
can has acquired, already, too much
intelligence to be a mere newer of
wood and drawer of water at starva-
ton wages; and if Mr., Wise does not
see it, that is merely his misfortune
for it is fact. And if the South will
not educate the Afro-American, he will
educate himself, which is also fact.

The performance of "The Mikado,'

Japanese, has been prohibited in Lon

remonstrance of the members, of the
Japanese legation. No one contended
that there was anything in ''The Mix

but it was tabooed because it was OBJ

''The Clansman" is admittedly, intend
