To the Editor of TAr Herald Hit
If you will allow a few observation*
sugaenfed by ywnr article la ta* gun
day laaue of Tbe Herald, I would aay
What is tbe reaiedy bar tbe prevailing
rondiilon* of tbe political status of tbv
Soutb* You aay: •Culling dowa ih#
negro nurselres to tbe level of tbe pur
rhasable commodity, while It Is our
duly to try to elevate him to Irue rttl
tisishlp" This sounds well and *t
very good a* far as II gars, bui th- part
to be performed Is not so easy. What
method of elevation would you resort
to In tbe face cf the difficulties to be
overcome* Through the ballot for the
negro or through the whiles by tie
ballot* Certainly not by Hie Aus.ral
ian iuallot. Kentucky has bnd an ob
ject leaarn In that system. When Ken
tucky adopted that process of ptiryfy-
Inx polillca aha waa a rock-ribbed
Democratic sirongbold and today she
has a Republican government and a
teandalnua administration. And hero
In Georgia, where the negro Is in tlx*
majority and with enough of unpritir'-
pled white Republicans to manipulate
the negm vole what would you expo
In a very short time? Better purchase
his rote as a commodity than allow
him to use It fer ascendancy at '.he
polls. Better keep him In the hull pen
than keep him In the range of the
field.
This question of elevation is one of
serious proportion# when taken to
gether with tbe necessity of nllor.luK
the negro equality of rights, and it is
a question that can not be fairly dealt
with so long as that element of con
tension polutea It. The only way you
can make the negro respect you Is first
to makr him respest himself and so
long 8s the law grants him eqnnl
rights so long will he assert those
rights. The way to make him reaper'
himself is to learn him to know his
place and make him keep It. When in
learns to adapt himself to the circum
stances of his natural condition he will
strive to elevate himself by acquire
ment and will ‘thereby restrict himself
In those acquirements to <vlthln the
radius of a social preferment belonging
strictly to the domain of his birthright
and the Improved circumstances of
mcritorlus effort.
When the constitution of the United
States admitted that amendment which
gave, to the negro a -franchise that al
lowed him suffrage It enacted a piece
of legislation that struck a blow a' the
South wb eh she will never recover
from so long as that amendment. Is
valid. It has not only retarded the
prosperity of the South, but has dwarf
ed the success of the negro and cul
minated sectional hatred, political prej
udice and the pollution of state gov
ernment. It has also kept apart the
commercial and social welfare of the
Nor., and South and brought about
national political corruptions disgrace
ful to the Union!
This Is a white man's government by
right cf conquest end Inheritance and
being invested with thou rights, 1
think that tli» white man should gov
ern to the exelusion of negroes and
low class foreign-horn citizens. These
are my sentitpents and I believe It to
be the only solution to the negro prob
lem in the South. T. B.

The Drama at Present
Th# stage la being wrestled for wtlA
with a veng.-anee tke#« days. With
the death of the moie notable players
of tragedy, that form of entertainment
has assu-ned a comatose condition
and ll# lull caused a large vacancy
Ih hind the fool light* n vacancy
extremely vnlunbie and therefore
sought by people of diverse procllrl-
I ties.
Chief among tbe new coutrsstants
1 are the two extremes of human socl
|ely the moral and the Immoral rep
resentatives. Until the Inst few
years the stage enjoyed a prosperous
era of what Is termed the legitimate
drama. Its general average was high
—a fart attributable to the healthy
stage of public taste The true ob
ject of the theatre prevailed over Its
untoward besetments. Object lessons
In vice and in morality did not run
riot on the board# a# they do now.
Plays were written like novel# used to
b« written not to preach and to
teach, hut to amuse, to entertain; to
depict a story for the sake of tho
story; to denote interesting phases of
life, not contorted into moral vagaries,
which may have a place in social po
lemics. but not In art. Characters
were allowed to grow or to dwarf ac
j cording to their bent, just as nature
accords to her forestry. There was
little forcing and forging into strained
aspects seeking to establish or to ob
literate a moral. Take Mr. Jefferson’s
; Rip Van Winkle, for instance, a p'ay
1 that hiss earned more money, perhaps,
■than any modern play—it Is a picture
, of life, pure and simple, leaving any
| moral which may choose to attach to
[it to take care of itself. It. Is repra
j sentative of the true function Of the
drama.
A story may be happily wrought
; with ethical considerations as its
chief material, hut they must he skill
fully placed so as not lo impede its
action from the liberal disposition of
i nature.
It is too much a custom now to
survey the route by straight lines, dig
the trench and then turn In the wa
ter thus compelled to an artificial
j course. Nature cannot bo matched
that way, and there is no art apart
from nature. The great dramatist
gepms merely to mimic nature his
prologue is the tapping of a spiing,
thus starting a stream In the old, old
search for the sea. Like Tennyson's
brook, it flows as it will or as !t|
must, in and out around and onward,;
| till in the epilogue it merges into the
great ocean of human experience. If
It, nourish a plant or water a fowl, or
drown an Insect, this is no more than,
an Incident of its mission, which Is
still to find the sea. If the ralu falls
and muddles its currents, ii will clear
again, for natural impurities do not
long adulterate primal purities. The:
sweep and flow of nature should be
the end sought by the drama. Itsj

And they are rewarded with popular

It restricts the support given to the

No Institution for so long a time has
been so ruthlesxly invaded liy vlcfou#

■ some wonder that vlee I# not master

j somewhat sitt prising that good hasn't
abandoned the contest. The gratify-
I ing fact that neither now nor at any
previous time has evil gained ascen
dancy. forcibly, conclusively demon
strates the stage to be an essential
factor In human association Under
the increasing growth of liberal inves
tigation by the clergy, the Importance
and potency of the theatre are better
known to thorn, and not a few advan
ced preachers have ceased attacking
the institution as a whole, by wh;eh
they hurt the good and encouraged
the had, and have become sensibly
discriminating In commending the one
and resisting the other. 1h # fine
help is doing much for th- betterment
cf tho stage, and In time It will Join
more freely In (he effort of the defen
ders of a pure drama so dispel from
the footlights all such productions as
Sardou's, and to eject from the rank of
honors tile members of the profession
all placers who minister to the pru
rient. populace, thus diverting the
stage from Its long and hurtful mis
nltliance and rendering th.' two
branches of the histrionic calling as
distinct, as an art gallery Is from a
prize ring.
It will be easy to choose one’s form j
of amusement, the wholesome and the
harmful.
Only the other clay several hundred
clergymen attended a performance of
Mr. Hall Calm's play. The Christian,
and so far as stated all gave the pro
duction their favor. This is a dis
tilled and momentous gain for the the
atre. for the moral effect or their ap
probation is not limited to the nluy,
inasmuch us the ld«V requires a stage.
Whilst, these problem plays exagger
ate uiul distort the functions of dra
malic art, they are impressive, and
most of them exert good Influences
and attract the hatter class "1 peo
ple.
This is an advantage and will go
fur at last. In aiding the inevitable re
