Albany when the Court attended the

TO THE NkGkO
NANNY.

The New York Sun cordially in
dorses the plan recently inaugurated
in Galveston TO erect a monument to
the old Southern negro Nanny
and heartily agrees with the view
that the movement should be given
national scope by calling upon Am
orleans generally to contribute to
its erection and choosing Washing
ton as the site of the monument
"All of us" says our contemporary
"can unite upon the old black nam
my-the millions who have enjoyed
her kindly ministrations, and the
other and more numerous millions
who have only heard of them" The
Sun goes on to remark:
"To Southerners, whether we refer
to those still living South or to the
countless thousands who are now
distributed all over the North, the
East and the West, hers is a name
to be conjured with. White aproned
turbaned, always devoted and alert
she nursed a strenuous and proud
race through the ailments and vicis
STUDIES of childhood. They went to
sleep to her cradle tales and chants
They lolled upon her humble, patien
breast. She comforted them in their
hours of infantile affliction. TIL
Civil war, with its dread epilogue
Of terror, touched old Nanny not
at all. She was unconsciously sworn
to the family. She performed her
simple but incalculable duty. Few
members of her class survive, the
race is surely dying, but if ever
there were heroes and martyrs who
deserved immortal celebration, the
old negro nanny is among them,
and not far from the head Of all
the list. "-Lynchburg News.
Yes, locate it in Washington that
it may be seen by the people of all
sections of a common country, yea
representatives of the Nations OF
Earth. Build its foundation broad
and strong, and lift its head high in

been spared to deliver the address o
dedication.

name is still unfamiliar, except per

The abandonment cf the policy

significant. But if one Ndage is

BACK TO THE PEOPLE.

ed a thrilling battle cry on the floor
of the U. S. Senate recently, when h
pleaded earnestly and eloquently for
a government by the people and for
the people.

Herald we'll says:

said Webster. If the people them
selves undertake its safety; and no
thing save it if they leave that safe

today. If the government would en-
dure. it must be a popular govern

masses il has come to be a govern

nator Bourne is absolutely right IN
ascribing the country's present un
rest to bitter public resentment

Ultra-cOnservatives would have u

SOCIALISM.

Tho man who reasons can but de

Under socialism all machiner
