OF the highway commissioner.
Ex-Governor Mann is responsible
for this provision in the Virginia law
which is in line with the recommends
tions for state control of county pris-
oners, made by Z. Stagg Within, of
the national committee on prisons and
prison labor, in his address before the
A. A. A. First Federal Aid Convention
in Washington.
Virginia road work is carried on
either under the contract or the force
account system. Hon. George P. Cole
man, state highway commissioner,
condemns the contract system, con-
tending that under the force account"
better results are obtained both for
the county and for the convict.
When the work is carried on under
the force account system, the high
way commissioner and the state su-
perintendent of prisons agree as to
the rules and regulations for working
the convicts. The prisoners are then
turned over to the highway commits
sioner the superintendent only sup
plying the guards who are subject to
the approval of the highway commits
sioner
Better results could be obtained"
stated Z. Stagg Within, speaking for
the prison labor committee, "if the
prison department remained respon-
sible for the care of the men as is the
case in West Virginia. The highway
department is organized to build roads,
the prison department to care for the
prisoners. Cooperation between the
two departments is essential to the
successful development of convict
road work"
Even under the present system of
handling men, commissioner Coleman
is convinced after eight years expert
ence, that prison labor is just as salts
factory and efficient as any other class
of common labor, with the additional

A REAL PHlLANTHROPlST.

One If the most pleasing things we
have heard of lately is contained in
the will Of the late Andrew Freedman
Of New York, the bachelor who left
an estate valued at $7,OO0,00O, the
bulk of which is to be used even
tually for the establishment of a
home for the aged on original lines
which the founder himself had for
mulated. It will be known as the
Andrew Freedman Home. 1t will re-
ceive aged persons in INDECENT cir
cumstances without regard to race,
sex or creed, and especially will it
care for old couples who, in the even
ing of life might otherwise be forced
to live apart. Mr.. Freedman selected
twenty-four persons, who will be re-
quested to act as trustees of the
home. They represent various races
and religions and their selection
shows that the testator intended that
the institution should have a repre-
sentative board. Mr.. Freedman, evil

JiM.cRoWING THEMSELVES

Some misguided colored men in
and about Washington are getting
s1gners to a petition to President
Wilson to have a jim-crow military
annex to Howard university because
colored men are barred by prejudice
from West Point and Annapolis.
The men who are engineering this
scheme are really asking that they
be set apart from other Americans.
They do not seem to realize that
they are advocating the most danger
GUS form of segregation, because
they are endeavoring to have the
government stand sponsor for a plan
which strikes at the very roots of
citizenship.
The military school at West Point
is not closed officially and legally to
colored youth, and even If it were
the colored people ought to force it
open. The president can appoint
cadets and members of congress can
also name them. 'rhe proper thing
to do is to make an effort to have
colored cadets appointed and not
ask to be segregated. That would
be an injury from which the race
would never recover. There are
colored men living who have grad
uated from West Point; why not try
to get some new cadets admitted?
All sorts of classes and races of
men from other countries are per.
mitted to attend West Point, so why
should Americans be excluded? And
the colored people are Americans,

DANIELS DOUBTED.

Said Secretary of the Navy Daniels
at Washington recently, at fraternal
night ceremonies:
II pray to God that the day will
come In Methodism when there will
not have to be any fraternal night"
The Secretary added that he hoped
that the day would come when there
would be no Northern or Southern
Methodist churches, but there will be
but one church.
OF course he did not exactly mean
tnat. What he meant to say was that
he hoped the time would come when
there will be but one WHITE church
and that the yellow, black, red and
brown Christians be forbidden to
enter.
