WORDS TRUE AS GOSPEL.
The Constitution, after referr
ing to the kindly relations which
once exi-teil between the whites
and blacks, says:
'■What, then, has come between
the races and put. an end to the
contidantial relations t hat once ex
isted between them? Why sim
ply the teachings of the republi
can politicians. The basis of the
education that every negro lias re
ceived since the war is hatred of
the soul hern whites. Since he
could spell, he lias read it in tlie
republican newspapers; since he
could lake an interest in advanc
ed text books, he lias been taught
that, the duty be owes the repub
lican party is to despise bis white
neighbors. For thirty years, un
til recently, the negro has bad in
stiled into him a blind resent
ment against those who give him
employment, who tax themselves
In give him a common school edu
cation, and who have ever been
foremost to aid him in bettering
bis condition.
“And to this may be added the
further fact that during the re
construction period the tiegroes
were, under carpet bag influen
ces, organized into secret leagues
that tende t to solidify them
against the whites and that stim
ulated the most vicious race an
tagonism. The seeds then sown
continue to develop the bitter
fruit."
THE SUMS PAID ON ACCOUNT OF
CONFEDERATE VETERANS,
i Atlanta, May 4—Judge Dick
Johnson, commissioner of pensions
for the state of Georgia, has about,
wound up his work ot paying pen
sions to all henefleiaries under the
law providing for the payment of
pensions to invalid and indigent
Confederate veterans and the wid
ows of Confederate veterans. The
indigent fund distributed was
$238,000, each beneficiary receiv
ing $00; the invalid fund, $192,-
000, to persons allowed money un
der the act, ranging in amounts
from $5 to $150, dependent upon
the character of the disability of
the party entitled to aid, and the
widow’s fund distributed was
$230,000.
All of these amounts have prac
tically been paid out and the
hooks containing the rolls of ben
eficiaries under the pension act
will be closed this week. The
next appropriation will not be
available until after Christmas.
The loss by death on the indigent
list is about 8 per cent, and on the
invalid roll about 4 percent. Tide
loss, however, is offset, by an in
crease in the number of applica
tions for pensions of the indigent
and Invalid class, caused by rea
son of old age, infirmities or pov-
ertv overtaking many of the sur
vivors of the Confederate army
who enlisted from Georgia.
Much of this money has been
distributed through the agency of
state house officials, who have col
lected the sum a due applicants for
pensions and forwarded the
amounts to the persons entitled to
receive same. Judge Johnson has
managed the distribution of the
fund in such a manner as to get
the money out among tbe old vet
erans as rapidly as possible, know
ing wail how badly many of them
needed it. Tbe distribution of
$(300,0(11) among tbe needy Con
federate veterans of the state was
a great assistance to them and
many of them who were in bad
circumstances financially looked to
the receipt of their pension money
with as much anxiety ae if it wae
a fortune that, they were about, to
inherit.
GEORGIA vs, ILLINOIS.
The Atlanta Constitution calls
down the participants in an in
dignation meeting held tbe other
day In Chicago, in which some
salty resolutions were adopted
about iynchings in the south. Tbe
Constitution’s reference to the ne
groes lately killed, half a dozen
of them, in Illinois, because they
wanted to work with otLer miners
in a coal mine, is a clincher. The
Constitution says:
“Talk shout ‘Georgia barba
rism!' When throughout the his
tory of the state has a negro been
murdered in Georgia because he
was willing to work? Go out to
day in all the cities of the state
aud you will find black meu at
work as brickmaFons, carpenters,
sloemakers, blacksmiths—filling
every avenue of employment in
which honorable men may engage,
getting their employment from
white men, and doing well under
their patronage. It is only when
the negro quits honest work and
criminally invades some borne,
that I e gets into danger. He
knows beforehand what the dan
ger is, but takiug all tbe risks be
challenges iL"
