State Superintendent Holloway. and
the two gentlemen are now hot be-
hind" a number Of the negro educa'
tors OF the State for their unfair prac-
tice.
DR. Kelley stated that the evidence
now in their possession would incrImi.
nate a number Of leaders Of the
negro race. as we'll a. the school
teachers, and judging from what Sl'
per.ntendent Holloway had 10 slr
about the matter II will mean not

criminal action in the courts.
Superintendent Holloway left

will further consider his plans be-
fore action.
Besides the evidence they now have
they are still at work and hope TO So
cure a great deal more within a short
time.
The Doctor further stated that the
evidence secured showed that IN.
papers were obtained elsewhere and
brought to Gainesville. as il has been
learned positively that the paper
concerning the examination came from
other portions Of the State That
they will break up the practice now
for all time 20 come is their belief
for they have worked In a most dill
gent manner and have been rewarded
with the evidence to go after The
right parties.

BEGGARS OF TOBACCO

What island and what man did
Defoe have in mind when he wrote
Robinson Crusoe? Ask the question
in Trinidad-or anywhere else in
the West Indies-and they will con-
f1dently tell you that the island was
Tobago and the man Pedro Serrano!
Ask in Valparaiso, and with no less
assurance you will be told Juan Fer
nandez and Alexander Selkirk. If
you show dissent in either instance
you are promptly told to go and see
for yourself. This will prove a per-
fectly useless proceeding as far as
shedding light on the moot question
is concerned, for on each island you
will find a tablet erected to it's hero
and Robinson Crusoe's graves, Rob-
inson Crusoe's lookout and Robinson
CrusOe's everything else to infinity
TobagO is a small island of about
seven miles by twenty-six, lying ten
miles to the northeast Of Trinidad
This fact is considered a strong point
in favor of the Crusoe theory, as
local advocates claim that in early
editions of the great novel the hero
is spoken of as seeing from his look
out an island by that name to the
southwest. TObago was discovered
by Columbus in 1893, and after be-
ing tossed about for some centuries
between Spain, France and Holland
was acknowledged to be British
colony in 1914. 1t is now attached
to the government of Trinidad, with
its local affairs looked after by a
resident.
During the last century TobagO,
like all the other British islands of
the West Indies, devoted its energies
to sugar raising, and when that in
dustry began to collapse before the
competition of German beet sugar in
the home markets it was one of the
hardest hit. Sugar land was suffered
to return to original bush for
period, but during the last decade
the cultivation of cacaO has brought
much of it back under cultivation.
Cacao, however, though most re-
munerative crop, employs scarcely
one person in it's cultivation where
sugar requires ten, so that the
change has wrought considerable
hardship among the islands $4,000
or 10000 negro population. Inc
poverty of all the blacks is extreme,
a condition which has made of them
the most inveterate lot of beggars

Poverty of Natives on One of Rob
insOn Crusoe's Islands.

in all the West Indies. In this con-
nectiOn l recall with amusement my
experience while endeavoring to walk
around the island.
The distance is about thirty-five
miles-a well macadamized road all
the way-and l was trying to make
the circuit between daylight and
dark. This would not have been a
very serious undertaking under or
binary conditions, but in Tobago
am fully convinced it is a physical
imposSibility to accomplish the dis
lance on foot within a week. A
man out for a days tramp is never
a promising looking objective for a
beggar, and the frayed suit of faded
khaki which | wore on this occasion
was of especially forbidding appear
ance. In spite Of appearance, how
ever, I headed a triumphal process
sion from the time l ambled out of
Scarborough at daylight until five
miles out of town I gave up the I'M
equal fight at noon.
1t cost me between five and six
shillings, all in pennies, to fight my
way through the half dozen small
villages which l encountered up to
that point, and when I finally reached
a hamlet where no pennies were to
be had felt myself in a serious pre-
dicament. l could hardly afford to
throw sixpences and shillings to the
insistent blacks, and there was no
way of getting rid Of them with
promises. Finally I bethought N.Y.
self of an old canvass coat I was
carrying against the chance of the
ever imminent rain.
The prospect of a tropical shower
seemed as nothing to the noisome
black cataclysm which was already
overwhelming me, so I threw the
good old coat to the crowd and, Eli
jah like, bolted over the hill, leaving
my mantle to my followers. At the
next village l hired a horse, changed
all the money l had left into pennies
and thus equipped managed to fight
my way back to Scarborough by
nightfall.-Los Angeles Times.

There was no other white child on
the place. There was a negro child
on the place who grew up with me.
He was about my age. He is living
today. In all my childhood that boy
was my companion. AS we grew
older and | went to school during
every holiday he and l hunted and
tished together, and during the long
time which has elapsed since then
the affection then formed has never
decreased.
Il want to give his name. 1t is
Collin James, and while reared in
Liberty county he lives now in
Mitchell county, in Georgia He has
prospered and now owns considera-
bic property. When [ have visited
relatives residing near where he now
resides, as l have frequently done,
he has driven over in his buggy to
see me and to ask me to go hunting
with him as in the old days, and |
have gone with him and we have
lived over again together our boy
hood days in the woods. And l want
to say here that the affection which
existed between that colored boy and
MY 0ClL "u6u VIC were CulIuIeu-dnu
he is as black as is the senator's
coat-has continued during our
lives, and is such now that I can
say truthfully today that if l had
but one crust of bread and he was
hungry and had none I would di-
vide it with him, and I am satisfied
that if the conditions were reversed
he would as surely divide his sole
crust with me.
This may seem out of place here,
Mr.. President, but the suggestion of
the senator from Illinois is based on
such a radical Misrepresentation of
the true relations which in that day
existed between the master and the
slave that l have, on the impulse of
the moment, said this much"
