And up to tbe present day the charge lias been well founded. It re mains for this American republic to either refute that charge or add ad ditional testimony to Its truthfulness. And the opportunity is at hand to test the matter, iu a small way, right here at home. Iu an editorial, appealing to our peo ple on behalf of a cause which speaks trumpet-tongued for itself, the Atlanta Herald thus presents tbe claims of Con federate Veterans on the people of the state of Georgia: The whole situation has been care fully canvassed. Georgia contains in her population many unfortunate men who, by the casualties of war and other Invalia conditions since, arc now unable to support themselves. They woro will ing volunteers at the call of tho state, they were brave soldiers under the flags of Bee, Bartow, Gordon, Jackson and Lee, and were patient sufferers in the general defeat and the consequent pov erty. For a quarter of a century they have struggled with the wolf and have not complained against the Btate as neg lectful of their needs, because they have known her poverty and her struggles. But to-day the state is comparatively independent. Her property is increas ing twenty millions per annum and her flnancial ability is improving with the To repeat to-day the n-gumeots of tweuty years ago against public provision for the state’s invalid soldier-servants would be abso lutely shameful. The poople through out Georgia, wo feel sure, are practical ly unanimous In their willingness to make this late return to thnir lingoring aud suffering veterans. N’o true and good man, iu whose bosom there is love fur patriotism, valor and history, and who is a member of the general ossom- bly of to-day, should refuto to accopt and establish the Veterans' Home. Tuk latest idea iu regard to regulating the liquor traffle Is one embodied iu a hill recently introduced iu the Kansas City common council It,provides for the licensing of dilnkcrs—that each por tion who wishes tolmlidge In liquor shall purchase a licet ic, to vary in cost from $U0 to $50, according to tbe expensive-! ness of tbe liquor to be indulged iu.

Nobody overheard of a boy getting drowned while sawing cordwood tour miles trout water. Moisture is souiewliat essential to a successlul case of drowning. In a negative sort of way the Louis ville Times tells somo truths that are more often thought than uttered: “If tbe Democratic National Convention next year were delegated to nominate tbe Republican candidate for president It would not lie lllalne, and If the Republi can National Convention were - elegated to nomiuate the Democratic candidate it would not be Cleveland.” The Richmond Dispatch aaya: “Mas sachusetts is nut a democratic atate. It will note vote for Mr. Cleveland next year. It ia fur Massachusetts first, last and all the time—that la aeldsh.” Ia not that rather poor encouragement for the democrati of a state who in the face of 80,000 majority a few years ago, have made Massachusetts debatable ground and last year elected tbelr governor and a majority of the congressional delega tion. All honor to the Masaachuaetta democrats and their worthy associates all over tbe north and west. They never raise their arms to strike, a blow “tfPt for the liberty and rights of all their fellow countrymen. THK EFFECT OF EDUCATION. Tho Chattanooga Tradesman, in its in ane o' tho 15th Instant, published an ex haustive review of the status of negro labor in tho south, and an inquiry into the elTect which education has had upon the negro as a laborer. To tho question Involving this Hat pi int 139 replies were received, in which every southern state Is represented. Thirty employers, hav ing 3,StH) colored workmen, say the edu cation tho younger generation lias re Ceiveil lias been beneficial to them ms la borers, and tliat education has been of aid to the laborers of tho race in general; thirteen employing 392 are in doubt on tbo subject, and niuety-six wlio employ 2,831) say that such education as tho younger of the colored race have receiv ed has not been of benefit to them as laborers, and that generally speaking it detracts from a negro's efficiency as a laborer to educate him. This has long been a debatable and Interesting question—one that has long attracted the attention of statesmen and political economists, and as yet there seems to he no definite solution of It Tbe preponderance of opinion teems to leave no doubt, however, that the schol astic education of tho negro tends to unfit him for common labor; but there Is, at the same time, no question that a moderate education makes them better and more efficient laborers in the trades and Industries that require more skill and Intelligence than that necessary to do common labor. Leaving aside theory, and reverting to the oondition which brings forward to prominently this problem at this time, the argument it not that education makes them any tbe less unfit to do Iiard, useful and profitable manual labor, but that “a little learning” does actually cause them to despise common labor—their common lot when in com petition with the educated white man— and to this extent, therefore, education ia injurious and unprofitable to them.
