1t was in a speech at Florence, S. c.

something in the price of cotton that

ried of your feet by prosperity and
fail to call for a maintenance Of high
standards of business morality ana

How easy it is for a community In
the midst of great material wealth
and unusual prosperity to forget the
higher demands of citizenship! The
President recognized this fact and ne
sought to impress upon his hearers
that there was something better in
life than the acquisition OF wealth;
that morality and sobriety and devo-
ton to civic duty are more to be de-
sired than all the material wealth in
this world. The Presidents politics
are bit off color, but his moral senti-
ments are hard to improve upon.

wAsHINcToN,s ADDRESS.

The address delivered here Satur-
day evening by Booker T. Washington,
the noted colored educator, was a
mastery plea for better understand
ing between the races. Furthermore
it was a finished piece of oratory'
Astounding in humor and wit, and logi-
cal in it's deductions.
DR.. Washington's plea for race pride
was a sensible and timely one. In
stead of demanding social equality be-
tween the races he demanded that the
negro race advance to that stage
whore it can view it's achievements
with the same pride that the eau
.casian now looks upon his advance
ment and civilization. When the ne
gro can truthfully say that he is proud
of being a negro the problem of social
equality will be successfully solved
In advising the negro women to be-
come a good cook, the day laborer to
become faithful employee, and the
negro farmer to devote more of his
time to his land Dr. Washington
struck at the root of things, When
the negro becomes fully sensible OF
the dignity of labor, and applies him
self with the same assiduity that the
white man does, then it is absolutely
certain that he will not only get along
in the world, but will eventually ac-
cumulate property of his own.
The black man came to the South
on the initiative of the white man.
He will always live here, for the two
reasons that DR.. Washington stated
because he wants to and because the
white man needs him. 1t is therefore
the duty of the white man to treat
the black man with fairness and JUS
tice, to see that he is protected by the
law. and that he is permitted to keep
what he earns. 1t is assured that this
will be done.
DR.. Washington's tour is valuable in
that it demonstrates to the negro his
possibilities, and furnishes the white
man a striking object lesson of the
accomplishments Of the son OF an ex-
slave. It will have good effect upon
both white and black.

WILL
IS PROBATED
ENTIRE ESTATE is BEQUEATHED
TO HIS INTERVIEWING
EXECUTOR.

The last will and testament OF the
late John Witherspoon Frierson has
been admitted to probate in the Coun-
ty Court. The will is exceedingly
brief, and is plain in its provisions.
After the payment of his Just debts
and funeral expenses, Mr.. Frierson
leaves the residue of his estate to his
wife. A codicil, dated November q,
1899, designates w. S. Fleming as ex-
ecutor without bond. A second codicil,
dated April %, 1902, requests the
three surviving children of the de-
ceased to provide for the support of
their aunt, Miss Stella Frierson, who
cared for them with tenderness IN
their infancy.
The exact amount of Mr. Frierson's
estate is not known, although 1t is
understood that he left heavy life
insurance, together with other prop
erty that will run the total far up into
the thousands of dollars.

EnlToR DECLINES OFFICE.

Declining to accept the appointment
of Governor of New Mexico, Editor
Robinson OF AIbequeque, says that he
would rather be the editor of a news
paper than to hold any office under
the government 1t is not every edi-
tor whose financial affairs viii permit
him to decline the emoluments OF pub
lie office without doing grave injustice
TO those who are dependent upon him.
Many editors have accepted public
Mace reluctantly because an unappre-
ciative constituency refused them the
support that they so well deserved
Evidently, Mr.. Robinson is not in this
class.
Henry Watterson, the greatest edi-
tor upon the globe, the only survivor
of the old school, a contemporary OF
Greelv and Dana and the elder Gordon
Bennett. has repeatedly declined pub
lie office. He very properly holds to
the view that his Office as the editor
of a great and influential public jour-
nal is a higher one than any within
the gift of the people short of that OF
the Presidency itself, His power tor
good as the editor of the Courier
Journal is UNNECESSARILY superior to
what il would be were he Governor or
a Senator of the United States.
An editor is, if he have proper
conception of his duties and his re-
sponsibilities, in a sense public OH
cial. His power for good or evil is
often greater than that possessed by
the Governor of his State. His influ-
ence upon the life and the thought
of the community is vastly superior to
that of any local officer. 1t is alto
eether a mistake to assume that APP
Monument to office is promotion 10
an editor There are occasions When
it is his duty as it is that OF other
good citizens, TO accept office, but the
editor who seeks public place 1mpalrs
his usefulness. He surrenders that
independence and freedom of express
sion without which an editor is almost
a useless appendage in his community
His influence is seriously impaired II
