Industrial Education of the Negro.

From the most unexpected sources
are coming encouragements for the
uplift of the negro in the south. When
negro education was first instituted in
the south through northern influence
II met almost with universal hostility
there. The results of the work of the
pioneers in this field have opened the
eyes of the real thinkers OF the south
and made influential converts ready
to extend a helping hand.
The latest recruit TO this class, Sen
ator Clay of Georgia. has seen, what
all men of foresight must see, that the
laborer of the south is of necessity the
negro. He is there and physically
fitted for the task, but his past condi-
ton, not through his own fault, has
rendered him inefficient. This was
first realized when it was sought to
adapt him TO the work of the factories
| Of the new south and the task OF his
Industrial education commenced. Sen
| ator Clay, looking farther than this,
| understands that the south's greatest
esource is agriculture. In old slavery
days the master thought for the negro
and directed his movements where TO-
day he must think for himself to be
effective. Under unskillful and neg
lectful treatment the soil of the south
ern plantations is impoverishe 81 and
fails to yield the return which is nee
essary II the south is to retain SUI
premacy in the fields OF agriculture
which it has previously dominated.
Senator Clay is therefore urging upon
his state and the rest Of the south the

Prevention of Disease.

The proceedings of the Nebraska
State Medical society emphasizes the
present trend of medical science to-
ward the prevention of disease. Not
that the profession has In the least re-
Taxed its efforts for discovering and
most important duty has been CO.
ordinated with that of prevention. In
this regard the medical profession has
of late made even more notable ad-
vances than In curative research and
is performing a great service in edu-
eating the public up to the knowledge
and Importance of observing the rules
for sanitary living. BY literature and
lectures the public is getting the ben
eft Of modern medical knowledge and
there is no way of telling what the life
saving influence of this propaganda
has been or will be until new mortu-
airy statistics are compiled, but the
fact that insurance companies are
realizing the necessity of revising
their mortuary tables emphasizes the
results.
Whenever some distinguished sur
geon saves a human life by a mar
velous operation or a skillful physi-
clan brings a noted parsonage back
to health from the brink of the grave
his praises are sounded on every hand,
yet in the person of DR.. Gorgas alone
there lives a man little known outside
of the medical profession, who has
without a doubt saved the lives of more
people than the busiest practitioner
has ever treated BY his courage, sci
entihc attainments and patient re-
search he had practically eliminated
yellow fever from districts in which
it formerly claimed thousands of vic
tins. Yet DR.. Gorgas is only one of
the many devoting their lives In this
name to the good of humanity.
The public is often slow to take up
with innovations in methods Of liv-
ing, especially where the results are
not Immediately visible and material,
and for this reason the work for
health preservation is met either with
indifference or absolute neglect. There
is evidence, however, that in many d.
rections people are gradually realizing
what is being done to lessen the sum
of human misery, but the awakening
is all too slow for their W good.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-05-06
The Outcome of the Election.

II it is true that the people Of every
eminent that they want, then the re-
election Of Mayor Dahlman by a
largely Increased majority over the
vote he polled three years ago means
that Omaha is to have for the next
three years just the kind Of a chief
executive It wants
Mayor Jim boasts that he represents
specially the common people, and
there is no question but that the COM
mon people are largely in the major
ity. If he will now take advantage of
his experience during his first term in
the mayors office and avoid during his
second term repeating some of the per-
formances which he,N himself, doubt
less wishes had been left undone, he
may at least give us a better admins
tration during the coming three years.
AS to what factors contributed to
bring about the defeat of the repub-
lican candidate, who, i'm his personality
was unobjectionable and in ability out
ranked his competitor, will be a sub
ject Of all sorts of speculation. Mr..
Breen proved TO be a weaker foe to
Mayor Jim than did MIR. Benson three
years before, with this exception, that
Mr.. Breen by comparison has run
stronger in the lower wards than in
the upper wards. 1t is, therefore, not
the downtown element that has in
creased Mayor Jim's majority, but the
outlying residence districts, supposed
to be inhabited by the more intelligent
and Weather classes.
On the rest of the ticket we have
a partial repetition of what happened
once before, namely, a vote for mayor
80 strong as to pull through a large
portion of the democratic ticket with
it. The republicans, however, have
made good gains in the council and
have elected their city engineer and
police commission by decisive MAORI
ties. This gives them just half the
offices filled at the election. Had the
voting machine been used instead of
the paper ballot the desire to r~e-elect
Mayor Jim would unquestionably have
pulled the straight lever so fast as to
make a clean sweep for the democrats.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-05-06
The Late d.. Amador

The death of DR.. Amador recalls
the important part he played in one of
the worlds great affairs. So far as
the public knew he was the central
figure in the revolution in Panama
which was the opening wedge toward
rendering possible the construction of
the canal, which, when completed, is
expected to revolutionize the transpor-
tation of the new world and have a
great influence on the old.
While as a man DR.. Amador was not
possessed of qualities which under any
conditions would have rendered him
conspicuously great, he was the visible
agent of an incident of such far-reach-
ing consequence that he will occupy a
position in history which many a
greater man could never have attained.
Almost as suddenly as he flashed into
the public eye came his subsistence,
and nothing but his death has served
to bring him again to public view. He
was the man for the time, the place
and the hour, and with its passing his
usefulness in a larger sense was ended,
for greater men and a greater nation
were needed for the completion of the
giant task.
