The Columbia Record is surely hard
up. 1t sends some one to tae files
of The Herald and News and copies
en- editorial from it about the details
of the one mill tax in which The
Herald and News did not agree with
the governor as to the details of the
appropriation. That was in 1913 and
not 1914 as accredited. We still think
that it is good idea to let part of this
one mill tax be at the disposal Of the
county board OF education instead Of
all of it in the honds of the State
board Unless you make the State the
unit for the expenditure OF all the
school fund and in this way give to
each child the same amount of money
and tle same length OF school term,
and when you do this you do away
with incentive for individual effort
State Superintendent Swearingen
agreed with Gov. Blease in the view
that the one mill tax should be a
State board fund At the 1914 ses-
sion the one mill levy was made as
Gov. BIease recommended and as Mr..
Swearingen desired. The Record is
certainly hard up for something. 1t
must be realizing that Gov. Blease
sure enough has the senatorial toga
and is gone with it.

Cmpulsory Education.

Editor The Herald and News:
When we hear OF the wonderful re-
suits of compulsory Education in Eng
land. Scotland or Germany we may
argue but those are foreign countries
and what would suit tlem might not
suit tle United States When Mas
sachusetts and California report that
they do not want to get rid of COM
pulsory education which is bringing
about sucl progress, we still have tAe
old time argument left that we can't
have it in South Carolina because
while educating ourselves we might
educate the negro. But, now Mr.. Edl-
tor, when reports from our own
Southern States show that compulsory
education of the waite citizen is his
defense against the negro who is al
ready flocking into schools, it seems
tat only the negro could fear COM
pulsory education Of the Southern
white man.

Postmaster General Burleson rec
ommends that automobiles be used in
place of horses in the rural delivery
Of the mails. The recommendation
is good one but something will
ha.e to be done to improve the con-
Ci;i5n OF the roads before the plan
can be succes sfully carried out. The
two most important questions before
the people today are the Improvement
o. our rural schools and the building
Il better roads.
You may talk about the improve
ment Of the State and law and order
and almost everything else as much
as you please but until something
is done to improve the rural schools
and the public roads in the country
there SIS not going to be much cnange
for the better
In this section of the country the
cities and towns have grown to the
disadvantage or rather at the expen
OF the rural districts: There is need
for Improvement of rural life condi-
tions and IN this age with all the
modern conveniences rural life can
be made more desirable than city life,
but in order that this section may
come into its own these conditions
must be improved and the first thing
is to get better schools and better
roaGs. In order to improve these con-
ditions the more fortunate must help
t.ose less fortunate and the only way
to equalize the burden is for State
and national aid to be given.

COMMERCIAL DRIFT
THE NEW NEGRO. HE IS
THE PRODUCER. GET
INTO THE FINAN-
CIAL SWIM.
THE COMING RACE

Notice the influence Of a strictly
commercial age; it is not possible
to be beyond its spirit. The Ne.
gro is coming. The class who are
coming, however, receive but scant
consideration. 1t is refreshing to
notice in many of our race papers
and in some of the whites tributes
to the struggling energy of the un-
discovered Negroes. They are
not great in the sense that they
have won fame in some of our
schools or colleges, or have been
eloquentprators, politicians, etc.,
but they have taken a barren
waste and made it blossom es the
rose. They have produced some
thing. They have by thrift and
frugality laid by snug sum for a
rainy day, and their savings are a
part of the deposits of savings
banks and trust companies. They
perhaps own few shares of stock
i'll local bank, telephone or ditch
company. They are the unknown
toilers of the race, whose liberal
iiy have made possible our splen-
did churches, schools, colleges, and
they have sent thousands of our
boys and girls to school.
Now that we have producers on
every hand, as we'll as wage earn
ers, our people must get into the
commercial whirl. One who pass
es along our streets would hardly
think that Negroes were numerous
in Denver. Very few in proper
ton to the population are seen on
the streets. But 90 to some of our
fashionable churches on Sunday,
and the congregations of we'll
groomed men and women runs in
to the thousands. All these peo-
pie must be fed, clothed and shod.
Someone does it. The Negroes of
Denver spend thousands of dollars
annually providing themselves
with food and raiment. Here is a
rare opportunity for clear head
ed business man. We have now
few Negroes in business but there
is room for more just as there is
room for more farmers and truck
gardeners. We need skilled me-
chanics of all kinds, men and wo-
men. Then we want our people
