A Combat of World Wide Interest

cuse for the conversion of the heath
en-. But what was to he done, when
the converted slaves wanted to en-
ter the Christian church? The old
English law said that no Christian
could be held slave. That took the
excuse for slavery away, but another
was soon found.
Just as soon as one evil goes on
unattended to, with the hope that it
will settle itself, another one will
rise up in it's place. Problems like

years In the making, do not settle
themselves. There came the attempt
to establish a feudal SYSTEM with
black and white serfs at the bottom.
The rise Tof the cotton industry
spoiled that, and placed slavery on
an economic basis, and consequently
beyond; the pale Of criticism.
''Then came certain hindrances.
The history Of the United States
from the Missouri Compromise to the
Civil War is the attempt of the
slave states to get more land for the
cultivation Of cotton and the ex-
tension of slavery. They were up
against the proposition Of more land.
They ran against the moral COM
science Of the nation; slave property
became unsafe, because Of the under
ground railway and this moral sense,
Tor slaves could run away to the
Northern states and to Canada.
Finally slavery was overthrown.
Reconstruction with its sub
quent criticism Of the Negro result
ed. l fear that too often, Negroes
themselves yield to the criticism
that is passed upon the giving of the
ballot to them directly after the
civil war. 1t was absolutely neces-
sary. 1t was not given to the ex-
slaves because they thought they
could use it properly; not because
1T was thought they we're qualified
for its best and highest use, but
submit that the best way to train a
man to use the ballot Is to let him
use it. The ballot was the only way
to guarantee to the Negro his freed
ON. The fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments were absolutely neces-
sary to guarantee the enforcement
Of the thirteenth. Too many at
tempts were made directly after
emancipation to again subject the
Negroes to slavery in everything ex-
cept the name.
Moreover, the record Of the Neg
rOes in Southern legislatures was not
so bad. True, they did some silly
things, but they gave to the South
some things that still remain. The
hrst system Of free public schools
was given by this so-called carpet
bag rule, with large Negro majoritiee
in the legislatures. They gave the
South it's first democratic government
by opening the ballot to the Negroes
and the poor whites. Hitherto the
government in most Of the Southern
states was one Of the aristocracy.

dubois, director Of sociological re-
search, looking into the progress of
the American Negro, was the central
figure in the last weeks program of
the National Religious Training
School and Chautauqua here. DR..
Dubois gave three lectures, the first
on '"The History of Education" and
the other two on The History of the
Negro"
His first lecture on "The History
OF the Negro" dealt with the record
Of Negroes in Egypt and in central
and Northern Africa, which brought
his narrative to the beginning of
African slavery trade.
In his second address, DR.. Dubois
stated that the Negroes Of today
should consider it a privilege to help

in the solution Of the Negro problem
as one Of the worlds great move
ments and not as having to DO with
something unpleasant. He called at
tention to the fact that the majority
Of the people Of the world were col
ored, and that Il belief in humanity
must necessarily De a belief in the
colored man. IN the course Of his
remarks, Dr.. Dubois said: Back Of
Slavery and the slave trade, lay Of
course several excuses. The first
excuse was that slavery gave an ex-

and Cabinet Secretary. The South
Carolina government was especially
extrayagant and did some silly
things. The attempt was made to
buy up a large tract Of land and
parcel it out to- a large number Of
people. The bill did pass. In the end
the result was that the state had
some mighty poor land and some
Southern people had a lot of money.
; Negro government was over
thrown in manner with which you
are perfectly familiar. In over
throwing this rule, the step was
taken, not only to get ride Of the
bad Negroes in office but all Negroes.
Tnat is the one fault of disfranchise-
ment. 1t hinders the development
of the whites, and keeps the state
under the control of a few, who are
free to loot the public if they de-
sire. 1t tells the black man he has
got to have extra advantages, and
to the white man that they are not
necessary.
1T seems to me that the Negro
ought to get very busy trying to
solve all these problems. There are
entirely too many people of darker
hue in the world, for the problem Of
different races living together in
peace and harmony to go unsolved.
Sy,
splendid chance to anticipate that
world wide solution that is bound to
come. ..
1T is unfair to ourselves not to
protest when we feel ourselves being
treated unjustly. 1t is unfair to our
white neighbors. Nothing is doing
the South more harm than to have a
class of entirely unprotected citizens,
people who can be stepped on at
VIII, a people who can be treated
anyway, who-ca be literally walked
over, without the right of redress;
for after all, the greatest harm is
going to be done to the man who
does the walking over.'

STEPS TAKEN TO RAISE FuNl

Bryan Baptist Academy Students Pa
rade Streets and Attend Meet
Ing in Body.

The meeting at Carnegie hall this
morning in the interest of the Bryan
Baptist Academy new dormitory was
held at 10 o'clock. TIE whistles blew
at half hour intervals from 5 o'clock
until the time of the meeting and the
students paraded the streets in body,
giving their school yells and creating
enthusiasm, in order to have a full at
tendance at the meeting.
The meeting was presided over by
Mai. L. L. McInnis, president OF the
Commercial Club, and quite a number
of the board of directors of the club
and the board of trustees of the acad-
lemy were present, also number OF
friends and supporters of the school
Major McInnis opened the meeting by
stating its purpose and called on Dr.
A. ]. Barton, secretary OF the state
Baptist board of education for the at
titude of the board toward the school
DR.. Barton's remarks were strong and
to the point and expressed the good
feeling that the board felt toward the
institution. Several OF the business
men, Mayor Maloney, President Nc
Donald and others made appropriate
talks in regard to the value of the
academy to Bryan. emphasizing that
lit was up to Bryan to do something
Major McInnis appointed the follow
ing named gentlemen to act as Joint
committee of the Commercial Club
with the committee from the board OF
trustees of the school in making the
canvass to raise the money with which
to build the dormitory: W. e. Saun-
ders, J. Allen Myers, Ed Hall, A. M.
Waldrop.
The main thought that was brought
out in the general discussion was that
it Is up to Bryan to decide whether
the school shall be permanent asset
or shall be suffered to fail. DR.. Barton
called to mind that the attendance of
the school had been raised from thirty
five students last session to one hun
dred and twenty-five this session, and
said that he was safe in saying that

ance would double again in the next
school year.
Those among the business men who
expressed themselves were of one
| opinion that the Baptist Academy is
worth much to Bryan and that her
citizens can not afford to fail in doing
the part that has been put before
them. The state board, in making the
donation of $4,000, made 1t upon the
condition that Bryan put up $4,000
and if the institution is not worth thai
much to the city then 1t is not The
asset that it has been supposed to be
It is time for the men of business and
the citizens to think about the matter
and it is time to act. If Bryan can moi
support those things which she now
has, who would want to launch an
other project of any character in 8
town that does not respond to the cal
of its valuable institutions?
The joint committee will adt as 9
unit and a thorough canvass will be
made in order to carry the matter
through at once in the way it should
be done. 1t is the duty of every citizen
to carefully consider the matter, and
do what he thinks will be to his own
advantage, the advantage of the towr
and of the school.

WOMAN CREMATED

Wife of j. C. Stoddsrd, Of Bolton,
Burned to Death-Trying to
Save Something.
[speciaI 70 The BRYAN EagIe.I

Bolton, Texas. Dec. "A charred
skull still intact with the body trunk
removed by friends from smoldering
ruins of the Stoddard home yesterday
afternoon was the mute evidence that
Mrs. J. c. Stoddard persisted in the
flames which destroyed her home.
Just how she was caught in the
flames and how the fire originated will
never be known, but the theory most
acceptable is that she discovered the
fire and rushed into the building to
save something when she was over
come by smoke. and thus stifled, fell
across a bed and burned, The remains
were found resting on the springs.
Mr. Stoddard was plowing in the
field and did not see the flames until
the entire house was enveloped. He
and neighbors arrived about the same
time, but efforts to enter the main por-
tion of the house were futile. The
search for Mrs. Stoddard ceased when
the fire burned low enough to disclose
the corpse. The news caused shock
to Bolton people, as the family, who
own a big fruit farm, are prominent.

as the one which ended last summer.

Ono Way to Promote Good service.

One Way to Promote Good Service.
A few weeks ago at an up-country
flag station a number of would-be pas
sengers awaited train at the SEIZED
uled hour and minute. The regular
signal was given, but the train ran by
without stopping and those in waiting
were forced to walk some miles to
their destination at the terminal Of
the branch line, or wait three hours
for the next train. There was, OF
course, natural and just wrath, but
only one of the irate parties took up
the idea of reporting to the railway
company. On his asking for names of
the others to confirm his testimony,
not one of them would assent. They
didn't want trouble;" they tanned
down into the conviction that lit
wouldn't happen again" and one of
the gentler sex, with some show OF
feminine asperity, answered that she
wasn't a suffragette.
But the single man went ahead. He
communicated the facts to the division
superintendent, who made prompt In
vestigation, found the train engine
crew at fault, notified the complainant
that severe disciplinary measures
would be taken, and, in behalf of the
company, gave him thanks; while,
presumptively, those who walked and
did not write took it out in abuse OF
the corporation. The incident illus
trates the proneness to abuse rather
than make formal complaint; the in
ertness of the passenger who would
rather have things pleasant for him
self than right for everybody, and his
Ignorance of the real desire of the rail-
road manager to detect through the
Ipublic's cooperation can be detected.
