He wants his property protected and any kind of crime severely punished, and the more s mall land owners of this class, or in fact any other class, we get in the South, the more rapid and permanent our material advance¬ ment.

Sincethat time the party has been controlled by ad- i venturers who were banded to¬ gether for the purpose of controlling the Federal offices, and many of the leading white Republicans of the State have had nothing whatever, to ___TOterr 11 but it can never be revived upon a black barns. If there is any one thing settled forever It is that the white people will govern the South, no matter which party is in power. Ig¬ norance cannot and ought not to control either North or South.” “What is the material advance¬ ment m Georgia?” “It is remarkable. No State South has developed so rapidly and sub¬ stantially. Our people have been lib¬ eral, and the result is we are prosper¬ ous. A few years hence the great plantations, such as were known be¬ fore and immediately after the war. will be divided up into email holdings, and that is the wealth of any agricul¬ tural region. The truth is that tbfi black man is the most reliable labor¬ er in the world. He is fond of local!- ity, conservative, full of humanity and sentimenri nnd wedded to his as- sociations. Jflany of them are ac¬ quiring property. I think, without looking at the figures, that the black menjat Georgia own $15,000,000 of jiffor itsgihterial life. This is agieatshow- Jpeeu the few years thatthey have regarded as citizens rather than “Then the small farmer is the sal¬ vation of the Rjnth ?” “It is a curious lafettoatthe pro- duction of the cotton, which is re¬ garded as our staple, increases every year, while the number of large plan¬ tations decrease. The negro is the most absolute and despotic aristo¬ crat in the world. He raises cotton because his master raised it and be¬ cause it is the great aristocratic sta¬ ple of the South, and if he gets a patch of land he makea a bale of cot¬ ton or as many more as he can; but he has the acumen to raise the small grains and herbs which maintain his family.” “Then the negro isagreat citizen?” “I wouldn't like to say [quite that, bnt he is to a great extent, our finan¬ cial power. The negro who gets prop¬ erty is chary of his expenditures, and he guards lus chick** and his crops with remarkable fidelity. Then, again, he has the donbte chance over the white man to make money.
