Bescher Memorial Association In
Brooklyn Aids TaIIadega College.
The Beecher Memorial association
of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, raised
$4,000 in November for the endow.
ment fund Of the Talladega (Ala.) col.
lege. This action was taken by the
association on account Of the great In.
terest which Henry Ward Beecher, ia,
nous minister Of Plymouth church, in
his lifetime manifested in the freedom
from slavery and the subsequent edu.
cation Of the colored people. The cam.
paign for funds lasted for ten days,
and there were many generous re.
sponses made by the public to the ap-
peal Of the campaign workers. Pre-
vious to the beginning Of the campaign
public meeting was held at Plymouth
church, at which the work and needs
Of Talladega college we're explained.
The institution was founded forty.
eight years ago by the American Mis-
sionary association for the education
and training Of the youth Of our race
The school farm comprises $50 acres.
and among the various buildings are
hospital and nurses training school
Carnegie library and an industrial
building for the boys and girls. The
enrolment Is about 40. and there arc
forty teachers.
Talladega has graduated several hun
dred young men and women and has
sent forth thousands Of others trained
for the practical duties Of life. Its
students are u force throughout the
state. Many have become teachers
and have helped to raise the standard
Of the rural schools.
One Of the graduates Of Talladegu
studied at Columbia college several
years ago, where he did such excellent
graduate work that he had number
Of tempting offers to head departments
in the larger schools Of the race. He
refused them all and turned back 10

any railroad station. he founded q
school that became model In its com

after having literally given his life to

service that Tallageda gave them have
made their little one room school

These are only few. OF the forty
opinions. but they show by their broad
ness of view on this race question that
the japanese are superior to the race
which seeks to shut thern out Of Aus
tralia and California on account of
color. They show also that they be-.
iieve in the doctrine Of the fatherhood
Of God and the brotherhood Of man.
The white man processes 1t, but he is
not honest. He does not prove his faith
by works or acts He Is cowardly
hypocrite and IS so narrow between
the eyes on this question that 1t would
be impossible to insert a piece Of writ
ing paper turned edgewise between
them.
The Japanese attitude toward the
darker races Is fully set forth in this
series Of interviews. Its men of light
and leading have expressed with d.
rectness and clarity Japanese contempt
for that relic Of barbarism and child of
ignorance, race Hrejudice.
