THE ALBANY DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1906.
opportunity to gather to himself more
of this world's goods, besides laying
away something over against that
rainy day which awaits the average
man. But the negro sees In hfs oppor
tunity to earn more meroly the chance
to work less and Idle more. As the
result of changed conditions and the
marvelously Increased demand for la
borers In many fields, he finds that he
can now earn as much in three days
as he earned a few years ago In a
week. Consequently, he now labors
three days and rests tour.
Herein Is found the kernel of the
nut which the black race In the South
must crack before it can hope to ma-
materially Improve Its'condttlon. Some
of the most Industrious citizens of the
section are negroes, but they are un
fortunately not a large percentage of
the whole black population. And un
til all realize that It is not all of living
to havo three meals a day, a whole
shirt and a roof above their heads at
night., the vagrant problem will con
tinue to perplex our state and munici
pal authorities.
NEW YORK NEW3PAPERS, t
Mr. Albert Pulitzer, who was promt <
nent In the New York newspaper clr- i
cle twenty-live years ago, when ho >1
conducted the Morning Journal, the j
most sensational newspaper of the i
country In that day and time, has just i
announced 'that he will start a new
paper In the metropolis us soon as the
necessary arrangements for launching
thb enterprise can be made.
Mr. Pulitzer has just returned from
a visit, to Europe, and one of the first
things he discovered upon looking
over the field was that the New York
newspapers had faults; that they were
all alike ‘and, upon the whole, dull and
unattractive to anybody outside of
Now York City.
Mr. Pulitzer’s Idea Is that there Is a
field In New York for a newspaper on
original lines apart from the parallel
ruts Into which all the papers of that
city are now running and with fea
tures that will appeal to tho sympa
thetic and bettor side of human na
ture,
■The criticism which Mr. Pulitzer
makes of tho newspapers of New York
seems to us to be a just one; for, If
wo except tho excellent foreign news
Service of the Herald, which appeals
strongly to all Huropoaus In this coun
try, thoro Is a sameness about tho
Now York papers thnt. Is actually mo
notonous, and they are a provincial
lot.
Thoro aro iiot less than twenty oth
er cities In the country today with hot
ter newspapers than any published in
the grent city of New York, appealing
more directly to tho people and exor
cising a more potent Influence upon
society and the political and material
affairs of the country. Many will, no
doubt, take Issue with this view, and
some will, no doubt regard It as troas-
' omiblo or something akin to lee
I nmjesto—for thoro are people all over
i tho country who liuvo fallen Into the
i rut of thinking that New York and
'things of and from New York are the
greatest and best., ever — but a fair
' comparison of such papers as the
Philadelphia Record—we put that at
tile head of the llst—tho Baltimore

This epigrammatic remark was In
spired by an Interesting discussion of
tlio vagrant problem in general, and
with particular reference to this com
munity, where there aro hundreds of
able-bodied negro men who appear to
have no steady employment, who can
not be induced to accept positions as
well paid laborers, but who appear,
nevertheless, to have little difficulty In
securing three meals n day and finding
a roof to cover their heads.
The local authorities are preparing
to Inaugurate a crusade against the
small army of vagrants Infesting this
city, and the municipal and state offi
cers will co-operate In the work which
