1t can be traceable to nothing else but to the unwise attempt to educate him.
 But it is in relation to crime that education has wrought It's most baneful influence on the negro. "A diploma from Alcorn University Is g certificate to the penitentiary, was q common expression in MississipL Inal ma, cation has spread among them, IS truth which no one will deny. IT ne does. let him consult the prison records of the South and see the gradual rise in the percentage of negro criminals who can read and write. Take the ne- gro in the State of Alabama, for Illus tration: The convict department shows practically that while the. number or negro convfcts has in the last twenty years increased only 40 per cent, the number who can read and write has increased 80 per cent and that three. ffths of them are under 30 years or age. Ask any gentleman from the country what he thinks of the matter, and a very large majority of them Will tell you they never saw negro pene- fited by education, but hundreds ruined. He ceases to be "a newer of wood and drawer of water Labor Is too irk- some for him and our old enemy, the devil, soon inveigles him Into crime, not minor crimes like petit larceny, to which he was given even in the days or slavery. but heinous crimes like bur giary. arson, forgery. rape and murder. Does the fear of death at the hands of the law or by the hands of the mop deter him? It appears not, for crime is on the increase and will continue to increase as long as the money or the white race Is wasted in the attempt to give the negro a so-called educatlon.
 Exclude the air and man will die, keep away the moisture and the flower will wither; stop the appropriations Tor negro education, by amendment to the Constitution, If necessary, ana tns school house in which he is taught will decay. Not only that. but the negro will take the place the Creator tntend- ed he should take in the economy or the world. and he will be again what ne once was--a dutlfuL faithful and law abiding servant Alexander Troy.

ne proersss \, q the educational leFis-

the progress of the educational legis-
 latfon.
 The Legislature will undoubtedly in-
 crease the appropriation to the conn
 mon. schools of Alabama The amount
 of the increase will be $300,00o. That
 can be safely prophesied Several bills
 have already been introduced. naming
 that amount as the correct appropria-
 tion to the common schools One of
 these bills will be passed, and the
 amount will probably be made avail- able at once. t4l
 It is current opinion that the bills
 which have been mentioned here have
 the endorsement of MT. Conner. It Is current belief that beore they were introduced they were submitted for his approval. and that they are now in the Legislature with that approval. Therefore, 1t Is not believed they will encounter much opposition in passing. The general opinion of those who have watched the trend of events at the State House Is that any bill Mir. Conner fayors will pass without any very great opposition.
 One of the most important measures of the present Legislature was intro- duced yesterday by Senator Herbert E. Reynolds. of Bibb. in his Compulsory Education bill presented yesterday. This Is measure discussed many years, but postponed because 1t was not believed Alabama was ready for it. Senator Reynolds believes the time is ripe for 1t, if bill to meet existing conditions | Is drawn. The bill which Senator Rey- holds introduced. was prepared with evident care. It is believed the bill Is
 so adroitly drawn that 1t will apply compulsory education to the white countiesof the State. and it will not apply to the negroes in the belt Compulsory Education Measure. Speaking of his bill Senator Reynolds said:
 "The measure provides that every child between the age of and IA
 years of age shall attend some public or private school for at least two
 months continuously in each scholastic yeas unless excused for cause by the teacher. The bill is to apply to coun- ties, and not to apply to any county unless there is taught for four months Q free white school in every district of
 the county. and similar provision Is in the bill as to the negro race
 'sThe bill. as proposed. is thought to
 meet the objections heretofore urged against such measure, in that 1t makes it discretionary to some extent with the school trustees with regard to
 prosecuting parents for not permitting thelr children to attend school No trustee will report negro for failing
 to. send his children to school, if the bill should apply to any county. as to | the negro race. It will. however, prob ably apply to every county as to the ! white race. It is thought the bill as drawn. does not conflict with the Fed | eral Constitution prohibiting discrimi- nation between the races and denial l he Iar Senator Reynolds also presented a | bill which declares that school teach CT before resigning must give thirty rays notice to the county superinten- | dent of education or the district trus- | tees.

BILLS TO AID SCHOOLS TO
 HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY

schools have the first call on the Leg
 islature and the State Treasury. This
 was indicated in the Governors mes-
 sage, and in his inaugural address. It is an open secret that the school
 men of the State have been astonished
 and delighted at the position the new Governor has taken on the question of
 education since his nomination In the August primary. MT Conner was an advocate of better schools in his cam paign speeches, but the school men had no reason to believe he would take the advanced position on education that he has. He has taken the same view as that of Governor Jelks, who said the surplus in the Treasury had been piled up for the benefits of the schools or Alabama.
 Mir. Comer's recommendations extend further than the common schools, too He is anxious the State institutions of higher education shall be aided and provided for by the State Legislature Bills for state Institutions. The bills making provisions for the needs of Auburn and the University or Alabama have already been introduced in the Legislature Both bills provide flor the construction of additional build ings at the two institutions, and the fund for the maintenance of the uni- versity is increased. The University bill provides for an annual building fund appropriation of s100.000 for TOUT years. The University. in addition. IS given an increased appropriation o1 $25,000 for maintenance.
 The building fund of the Aiapama Polytechnic Institute Is fixed at sb6,ooo for four years. No increase of the maintenance fund is asked for. The school only asks the Legislature to provide the fund for the building or the additional structures. Thelarger
 University fund for Building Is asked for. because no appropriation for build ings for the University have been made
 in the past twenty years.
 The bill to give an appropriation 10 | the Alabama Girls Industrial School at Montevallo has not yet been sup- mitted. Its submission has been held ur | by peculiar circumstance. There are at present. and have been for some time, vacancies on the Board of Trus- tees. These vacancies were to have been filled in the message which Gov ernor Jelks sent to the Legislature a few days, before his term expired The appointments were not confirmed and they were later withdrawn by Governor Conner. Because of this cir cumstance. no meeting of the BAard l of Trustees of the school could be held
 and no agreement reached as to the ap- propriation to be asked for.
 The presidents of all these institu- tions, President John w. Abercrombie
 of the University President c. c. Thach
 of Auburn, and President J.Alex Moore l of Auburn. are all in the city to watcf

 This may not be the exact wording of an executive order, but there is no room to doubt that Governor Conner has let the two Houses of the Legislature know the administration prefers to have the first appropriations out of the State treasury go to the schools and colleges of the State.

TO HASTEN LAND FRAUD CASES
Northwest Trials Lag Too Long for
Patience.

It is known that the general land
Office has many cases involving illegal
entries in the Pacific northwest, which
have been recommended to the depart
ment of justice for action, over which
some officials think there has been
undue delay in getting the cases into
court for trial. In some instances in
dictments were returned more than
three years ago and the defendants
have never yet faced jury. 1t is be-
lieved mild protest has been regis
tered with the department of justice
against the delay in trying cases so
long pending. Indictments have been
pouring in in many states and the
dockets are rapidly filling. The inten-
ton has been announced to prosecute
Idaho cases vigorously, yet in Ore
gon there are cases which have been
pending since 1903. Conferences have
been held here during the past week
indicating that efforts are being put
forth to get these and other cases to
trial, so intense activity may be looked
for in many states by the special and
regular attorneys for the government
