Miss Mamie II. Burroughs In a re-
cent discussion Of industrial education
for the Negro said:
ut has never been shown that the
Negro's mental power must be cast in
an Industrial mold In order to fully re-
spond to the biddings Of his mind and
the pleadings Of his heart. nor have
We evidence to show that the Negro
makes a better citizen and a better
man with an Industrial education than
with any other kind, nor has the Ne
gro any evidence that an Industrial ed
ucation will secure for him an even
break in the race Of life. Is the Negro
to spend years fitting himself as a
lAborer Of skill and then be forced to
work for unskilled prices or starve!
II Industrial educafi9h will save the
ignorant Negro. the same gospel will
save the ignorant white man. and you
have only to look around to see that
one il as bad o1 as the other. and II is
for the salvation Of all Its citizens at
which the United States must aim.

Special to Times-Republican.
Fort Dodge. Aug. Slater exper-
fencing more misfortunes than fall TO
the lot of the average man, the wheel
of fortune seems to have taken a turn
for Ed Port Of this city, it having been
discovered he was heir to one-third
interest in an estate in New York state.
Saturday letter was published in
The Chronicle from eastern parties
asking for information of one John
Port, who left New York state a num-
Der of years ago, and was supposed to
have settled at Fort Dodge. The story
fell Under the eye of Ed Port a son of
the man sought, and he came to the
city this morning to place the matter
in the hands of an attorney. Mr.. Port
remembers hearing his father state he
held an interest in eighty acres of land
in New York state. and as the letter
states this interest amounts to one
third it is probable the son will in
herit at least $4,000, a conservative
estimate on the value of the land.
Altho always hard working man,
Mr. Port suffered many misfortunes, a
few years ago having a hip crushed by
a fall or rock III gypsum mine. al
the same time the superintendent OF
the mine was crushed to death in the
room. A little later Mr.. Port had both
legs broken while at work in the mine
and less than year ago, while on his
way from the city to his home, he was
knocked down by Minneapolis & St
Louis train and suffered the loss of his
right arm The inheritance will be
most acceptable TO Mr.. Port because OF
his disabled condition.
