Race Problem Discussed by Atlanta torney at Colored Industrial School Commencement. At 8pcclal to The aeorgtan. Knvnnnh, Oa.. June William R. Hammond, of Atlanta, addressed the students of the Oeorgla School for Col ored Youths here at 11 o'clock this morning. Mr. Hammond's speech was in the nature of a reply to the speech delivered here a year ago by Booker Washington and dtalt largely with ths race problem In -the South, dealt with the grievances of the negro from three standpoints, social, polltl cal and Industrial. After announcing the subject upon whlcti he would base his remarks, Mr. Hammond said: ‘This problem Is not essentially dlf. f erent from any other human problem t Is much like those we meet every day In our contact with our fellow men. Every Individual of the race Is a problem to himself and to those who come In frequent contact with him. It Is always a question os to how he may adjust himself to others, and their live* to tils, to as to avoid friction and promote harmony. Life Is a constant succession of compromises and -adjust' ments, and the man Is wise who recog nixes this truth, and who seeks to ap- !>ly It In such a manner aa to promote its own welfare and that of society. How each of u* may do this la worthy of our beat thought and effort." In dlecusslng these phases nf the race problem Mr. Hammond said: "The negro claims that be does not have a fair chance In the business world. He say* that he la shut nut from the best places by the white man. I do not think he Is much Inclined to complain nf this, but nevertheless It la one of his grievances. Of course he has no Just cause of complaint unless It Is true that he Is shut out on ac count of his race or color. Theoretl rally alt avenues of business are open to him, but practically he cannot en ter them. Of this hs does not com- R laln. His remedy Is to enter where e ran, and watt. Thl* will adjust It self In the natural order of things In the future. There are Instances, but they are fewer In the South than else where, where he Is shut out from lucrative employment by labor organi sation!. Of this he ha* a Just right to complain, but his best course, here as always, Is to appeal to the sense of honor of the ninn or class who does him Injustice. Every honest man wilt do the right and fair thing If you will give him time. "The negro aoclal status Is on* nf hla grievance*. I do nor think- ha troubles himself os much about tbl* as some of his friends do, but It Is nevertheless a cause of Irritation. He cannot fully understand why the white man should be so persistently exclusive on social question*. He does not want .to In vade the home of the white ninn, or thrust himself offensively Into his presence, but he ask* for equal ac commodations In hotels and sleeping ears and such places. He le exceed ingly patient and good natured on these questions, and has really provoked tii„ admiration of the white man r,.i hi, excellent spirit, but he has a grievance here which needs attentive and thoughtful consideration. I do not not know how public opinion will shape Itself; It would be unwise for nny mnn to predict; but 1 do know that If the patient spirit of ths negro continue* to manifest Itself, that. the time will com* when the sense of Jus tice and fairness of the white man will bring him to a proper recognition of the negro's ilghls In this regard, nnd that eventually there will be found a solution of this vexed question alike satisfactory to both races. "The negro'e duty la clear; and he seeme to be meeting It In a manly nnd iwtlant spirit Let him bide his time and wait. Let him remove all cause of Irritation and possess his soul In the most perfect patience. iAt him be found continually making advances all along the line; here a little and there ■little; and we may be sure that the children and grandchildren of this generation will, somehow. And them s.'Iv,'* mu. h n,-ar. r the solution of II.< question of the social relations be- I u . I'll II,,' f II, .'* I li.m u .' a r.- la I III"' negro advance himself to as high plane In the social world ns he can possibly reach, and let every good whits man help him. and then If he get upon as high a plane ns the white mail Im , ,', trlnU v III have solved III" question of social equality, though no man can say there will ever be soclnl unity of the two race*. God made them oa they are; nnd who can say that la not what It should be? canot solve these queetlons now, but we can put our faith In God. and our hope In the future, with full assurance that all will be well. ‘Ephraim will not eirvy Judah and Judnh will not trj Ephraim.' but nil will dwell to gether in brotherly love nnd unity. "The next great grievance of the negro Is In regard to his political rights. Why can he not exercise them under the. constitution nnd lav h of the countrj'7 Why doe* the white mnn Insist on saying that he shall tnke no part In making and administering the laws of tbs land? Why Is not his right to vote recognised, or his vole* permitted to be heard In public places? Is there Just cause of complain! ben' Is there a remedy? "These are momentous questions, c.nd should be answered with the most per feet candor and truth, and with entire freedom from prejudice and pasalon. And rlifht here I want to ^ssert my belief that the time will come when the full political right* of the negro will be recognised by the white man of the South—the only man whoso recognition nf them will be worth a cent to the ne gro. And this part of th* problem bo fore us resolves Itself Into the ques lion Whether the negro Is willing to undertake to secure this recognition from Ills white neighbor and friend. It Is tHe height of unwisdom for the negro to expend hts energies and con sume hla time In denunciation of the white man on this account; and It Is sheer folly fop the friends of the negro, who simply know him as a member of the human family, but without close personal acquaintance, to keep up the agitation which has already had, to a large degree, the disastrous effect of causing an alienation between the negro and his white friends at the South. Anything Is deplorable which causee a separation of feeling between those who live neighbors to each oth er, and this I* especially true where the neighbors belong to different rare*. The most cruel thing that ever hap pened to a race of people wo* the course nf conduct of those friends of the negro, who. viewing hi* situation nnd surroundings from n distance, and misjudging the temper and spirit of the white people of the South, nssumed the gunrdlanshlp of what they called the nation's ward, and undertook to regu late, by a constitutional amendment, iciaed north of Mason nnd Dlxon'i Inc, the civil right* of the negro, nnd upon whom he waa dependent for the sympathy and co-operatton so much needed by him In the early beginnings of his new Ilf*. There were those In the North, more farsighted than their brethren, who recognised this truth In the beginning of the new order of things, but they were In a hopeless minority. But the time has come, anil It Is the most hopeful sign bf the new century, when the best thinkers ev erywhere have com* to a recognition of this mistake, and do not hesltnte to say so, and the hopeless minority has swelled Into an overwhelming ma jority, boding no III to the negro, but only good; for when the responsibility for the moral, social and political re generation and upbuilding of the negro shall be thrown back fully upon the Southern whit* people, they will rise to meet the emergency with a spirit which will command the admiration of the world, and provoke a feeling of the liveliest satisfaction In the mind* of the friend* of humanity everywhere!

I “It is Imposlble to secure an impar tial trial in this state for a railroad now, on account of the present politi cal conditions/* So wrote IL I*.

The company was organized the flrst of . the present year, and on March _ began business In a building erected for Its sole use at No. 66 Ivy etreet. The building Is open at all times public Inspection. It Is a model cleanliness, and adapted to the pur poses, for which It Is used. The floors of each room are built of reinforced concrete and the walla are of hard white llnlsh. tilth every operating room so arranged that hose can be turned the entire apartment for clennslng purposes. It was built without regard to cost, but with a view of obtaining a plant where the puroty of the prod uct can be sustained.

About one hour Is consumed In transporta' tlon. After arrival each can Is sampled and a test made for percentage of cream anil other solids.
