MRS. ANNIE RILEY HALE.


 The crying need for labor in the South, is evidenced in the springing up of Immigration bureaus" in most of the Southern States; and at the same time the promoters of these are confronted with the discouraging fact that the sane thing which makes them necessary, also makes them useless the North does not require any immi- eration bureaus.
 Now 1t Is very simple economic principle, that capital, enterprise. and labor-the best of 1t. skilled and un- enthusiastically flow to that portion of the country having the greatest amount of undeveloped wealth-admit- tedly the South today-unless ther is some logical obstruction, some spectre at the door to frighten them away.
 We do not need to travel far to find the Southern spectre, nor need we be in any doubt about its color. Yet in our old illogical way, we are attempt tng to drag the horse after the cart, and while reaching across the seas with one hand for white labor. with the other we still grip as firmly as ever the spectre which&has frightened this white labor away for more than forty years.
 Why does not some Southern econom- list or statesman arise to declare that the logic of the Southern situation is not immigration bureaus. but emigra- tion bureaus? Whose avowed object shall be to stimulate by all possible. legitimate. and peaceful ways the out flow of the blacks from the South into the North and Northwest. Peaceable ways, mind you. Let there be no violence, no Kuklux bands If you please!
 Raise an exodus fund and out of 1t offer free transportation to any point In the North to any Southern negro who will accept it. and agree to re- main there at least one year. He would have to stay until he earned money enough to get back-if he cared to come after so much polite atten- ton in assisting him to depart; and during his absence the Northern or European immigrant who has long had his eye on the Southern land of promise, would observe this hopeful sign that the South really wishe ed to break away from her old industrial bondage to the negro. and would come to assist In the good work. For mind you, 1t Is not so much the fact that the negroes are in the South, nor even the bulk of them there, that capital. enter prise, and labor shun our borders; but 1t Is because of the notion which Southerners themselves have fostered In the public mind. that they prefer This negro labor and are slavishly de- pendent on It. This Is the idea which has got the South by the throat. indus trialfy. commercially. politically. and Socially; and unless the South takes some overt. decided step to counteract this popular impression. 1t is perfect. 1y idle to talk about getting in white labor to shove ont the black" The South will never get any desirable class of white immigrants while she permits her spokesmen to go about the coun- dry saying: We understand the negroes. and know how to handle tn em. If we could only induce them to work, i've would prefer to keep them; but as fhey grow lessSAnd less dependable, of

point of coming across the chamber to shake Senator Moneys hand. But Is any one foolish enough to suppose that that will have any material effect upon the practical working out of the negro problem? The only practical question In all this discussion over the negro. is, what do the majority of the domi- [nant race want to do with him? And we shall never know what the majority want. nor have any frank ex- pression of opinion, nor any broad. patriotic consideration of the question. So long as 1t affects only portion. and that the smallest portion of the white- race. If we want the sensible people of the north to unite with us in reaching an amicable adjustment of this question. we must give them a real. live. personal motive for such CO., operation: and we will give them this motive when we given them the negroes-not sooner. It does no good but rather harm, to be continually de- picting g bad situation if we have nothing to propose as a remedy; and if we do not intend to take any step for our own relief. 1t is not onfy futile but weak-lamentably weak. to be call ing on the North to do what we have not the courage or initiative to do for ourselves.
 Meantime remember, that one .emi- grafton bureau" in the South, will talk" more eloquently to the Cau- casian dwellers in the Northern half of this country. than all the Southern orators from Ben Hill to Benjamin Ttllman!
 Mrs. Annie Riley Hale a Tennessee woman now living in Washington. has been writing and featuring for the past two years in advocacy of propo- sition to secure a more equal distribu- tion of the negro population between the sections of the union.
 Mrs. Hale is the author of a recent book of Rooseveltian history which has attracted considerable attention, it having received, according to one critic, "more space in write upA in the press of New York and elsewhere than any book since Sinclair's "Junglev and according to another is ~'by far the most effective foil that has yet ap- peared in print to offset the fulsome flattery with which sycophantic pens have flooded the country"

JOE MADDEN WINS
 BROOKLYN DERBY

New York, June 19.-Joe Madden. the Yankee colt, that carries the colors of Sam Hildreth, won the Brooklyn Derby over one mile and half at Gravesend today, beating out Fayette by nod in a highly sensational finish
 This classic equals the Brooklyn and Suburban in money value, tn e purse amounting to $5000.
 Only a trio of 3-year -olds faced the starter, Joe Madden, Fayette and Coun- ty Fair. When Cassidy sprung the barrier, Butwell took County Fair to the front, followed by Fayette and with Joe Madden within striking distance. After they had gone seven eighths County Fair was through and Fayette sailed to the front. As Fayette reach ed the mile pole Dugan called upon Joe Madden and he moved alongside Fay cite and tried to pass him. Fayette had on his running suit and fought out every inch with his former stable mate.
 The dash to the wire was sensational and a hundred feet from the finish 1t looked as though they would run a dead heat. Dugan rode Joe Madden like a demon and just as he reach ed the line he fairly lifted him across a victor by a sh ort nose. Fayette ran a race that showed he has recovered his real form. Joe Madden was never better than Il to 20 in the betting and went to the post at l to 2. Fayette was not neglected, however, being played from 2 to 1 to to B.
