must provide likewise for the exceptional
man. You must encourage leadership.
You must see that those who by nature
and ambition are calculated to lead shall
be, by education and discipline, fitted to
lead wisely Every race will have its
leaders. The black race will have its
own. We cannot prevent it; but we can
see to it that they are well trained. We
can see to it that they shall be filled
with true ideals of service. The time
has gone by when you could put the
human mind into a dungeon The in
stinct for something better is uncon-
ouerable. Men will have light. They
will have their share in the fruits of the
worlds progress No dead weight of
opposition can ever keep down the
mighty instinct of growth. AS Wen
dell Phillips was fond of saying, The
tinv weeds of a luxuriant Italian sum
mer upheave the colossal foundations of
the Casar's palaces and leave them a
mass of ruins Where there is life there
will be growth. If you plant an acorn
in a vase the acorn will die or else the
vase will crack. OF all the follies that
ever took possession of the human mind
the supreme folly is to suppose that you
can keep a man in ignorance If he wants
Ito learn. The question is, what shall he
learn? Shall it be vice and crime and
rebellion against society and law, or
shall it be truth and virtue and loyalty
to God and to the State? That is the
question.
The mistake men have made so often
in the past has been in supposing that
the strong and prosperous held a mort
gage upon the weak and poor In the
world of morals it is the other way
1t is the weak who have mort
Jgage upon the strong. 1t is the ignorant
iwho have a claim upon the learned
