TOM WATSON AND THE NEGRO PROBLEM
’ Tom Watson, in his magazine, nail
jed Booker Washington to the cross
fon the negro-progress question.
| y .
} Washington asserts that the negroes
!since Lincoln's emancipation procla
| . :
| mation have made move progress than |
[ any other race. 1
* * *
W atson points out that this is about
| the only progress the negro has ever
'made and, according to history, he
‘could not have made that without
' leaning on the white man.
% % "
[ catch the idea from the article
that the African race started out in
the world with the same chance as the
Caueasian and Mongolian—but did
nothing until enslaved by the white
man, brought in contact with Caucas
|ian civilization, and then freed.
i* * *
Correct you are. Go up ahead,
Ton.
| But for all that, there’s nothing new
in the idea: still it's very interesting.
' Bob Toombs was the greatest off
'hand thinker this country ever pro
duced. What he knew was always
ready to be reeled off.
* * w
About two yvears before his death 1
met him one day in front of the Big
Bonanza and put this guestion to him
pat:
“‘General, is the African race an in
ferior race?’’ '
“Yes, sir,”’ exclaimed he, ‘‘and that
bv the tiat of Almighty—
““When Noah turned loose his three
sons, Shem, Ham and Japhet, they
started abreastto work out their God
| given destiny. Shem, the yellow man,
took Asia. Ham, the black man, Af
rica, and Japhet, the white man, car
ryving everything before him, penetrat
led into Furope.
‘* * *
| “These races all hadthe same chance.
' Shem did a little something. l{ami
| did nothing—and Japhet did every- |
ithin}_{. That's the whole story in a nut
shell.
I *As I said in Tremont Temple, Bos
ton, before the war:
¢ ¢lf the entire African race should
be swept from the face of the earth it
! wouldn’t leave a single poem, oration
|or invention worthy the remembrance
] of mankind.’ |
i STOLE 200 POUNDS O CANDY,
A Record Theft for the Busy Bee in
Twelve Hours.
From the Savannah News.
| Fora long time a series of petty
thefts, which at times nave gone be
vond this degree and amounted to
larcenies of considerable proportions,
llmvc occurred at the works of the
Standard Candy Co. The matter has
‘ not been repotted to the police,though
the authorities of the candy company
';u'e fully aware of the identity of the
thieves, who continue to plunder the
‘cm-pox'ution whenever the chance is
{ found.
l That they come in numbers when
( they do decide upon a raid is shown
lb_\' the fact that several night ago a
ilnt of candy aggregating 290 pounds
| disappeared between the time the fac
‘tm'y was closed at night and opened
| the next morning. »
{‘ The thieves have been swarms of
lhccs which, since they have located
‘the candy factory, have considered’it
| legitimate prey, and rather than de
!votc their time in the arduous pur
' suit of the minute quantities of pollen
| in the flowers, as they were wont, they
{hang about the factory and with the
[timidity of the born thief wait until
| the sweets are deserted and then sweep
| down on them until they are called on
| to flee before the advance of some em
| ploye of the concern.

“DUE TO CARDUI
and nothing else, is my baby girl, now
two weeks old,” writes Mrs. J. Priest,
of Webster City, lowa. *“She is a fine,
healthy babe and we are both doing
nicely. lam still taking Cardui, and
would not be without it in the house,
as it is a great medicine for women.”
| “No, sir; Ham—a laggavd to the
jend.”’
{ B w
‘ That during the forty vears of his
freedom the negro in America has
made wonderful progress in certain
ways is not to be gainsaid—but it can
ln()t be denied that it has all been due
to his contact with Caucasian civiiiza
tion. But, as a race, he was certain
ly, though ignorant morally, better in
slavery than today. He was taken
care of as a slave. His poverty and
inexperience have greatly increased his
crimes, as a race, since freedom. |
*% * |
[ vive a single illustration of thel
universal fact:
During the ftifties, as far as I know,
not a single negro was in jail in
Georgia. After the war the peniten
tiaries began getting them in large
numbers. Today there are upwards
of 3,000 negroes in the penitentiary
alone.
* * *
I mention Georgia because, although
there are about 150.000 more whites
than blacks in this state, there arve
more negroes 1n Georgia than in any :
other state in the union—over 1,200,- |
000,
* * *
[ am simply giving historical facts
without the slightest prejudice.
* *-. *
[t remains to be seen whether the
progress made by the negro in Amer
ica will redound more to his good
than to his harm in the future !
The veil of that future n¢ man can
lift, because history on this question
furnishes no precedent.
* * *
That, in the matter of individuals,
the negroes have made wonderful
progress mentally, sanitarily, indus
trially, commercially during the past
forty yvears goes without saying— ‘
** * i
But the problem of what is to be
come of that race when, as a race., it
gets education and property here
among the white people is beyond the
powers of man.
Of course we can all theorize and |
speculate.
But even a man of undoubted polit
ical pre-science like the late Ben Hill
once said to me:
“‘T have given the future-of the ne
agro my best thought
‘‘But my mind has reached no con
clusion on this great problem.’’
PUBLIC ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
By a User of Plant Juice, Who Tells
of the Wonderful Effect.
Another gentleman comes forwardto
testify to the wonderful results obtain
ed from taking Plant Juice. He be
gins by saying that his wife had been
ill for more than five years, that he
had spent hundreds of dollars for
medicines and medical treatment, all
to no purpose, and that she gradually
declined until he had almost given up
hope of her recovery. Ten days ago
he heard of the Plant Juice remedies
sold by Col. Dillincham and he de
cided to try the treatment.
He bought one bottle of Plant Juice
and prevailed upon Mrs. Georgia
Watson to try it. She willingly did
sO, but with the usual misgiving cre
ated by the continual failures of all
other medicines she had taken in the
last seven years. A few doses seemed
to give her relief. She kept up the
treatment and each day her condition
improved. She had grown better each
day since she began taking the Plant
Juice, and Mrs. Watson stated that
she was then in better health than she
had been for six years. It could have
been no other medicine than Plant
Juice that brought about the relief, for
she had taken nothing else. Mr.
Watson wanted the public to know the
good Plant Juice had accomplished
for his wife, and he took this occasion
to publicly acknowledge its efficacy,
and he thanked Col. Dillingham with
' all his heart for his good fortune in
having sutficient faith in the remedies
'to give it a trial.
.« Mr. Watson speke with great
‘earnestness in telling his experience
with Plant Juice and took occasion to
say that if all people were as frank as
he to acknowledee the true results of
the tieatment of Plant Juice there
would be less sufferiny among the
people and more of them would be
happy. BELL BROS.
NO SHEKELS UNTIL DECEMBER
Funds Allotted to Schools by the State
Found to Be Short.
The public school teachers in the
employ of the state will receive no
more money until December. This
was decided upon a few days ago af
ter a conference between Governor
Terrell and Assistant Treasurer C. T.
Furlow. Under the act which appro
priated $1,000,000 for school purposes
in Georgia $£650,000 was to be paid out
in the spring and the balance
during the last month of the
vear. The $650,000 has been paid
out, and therefore, under the law,
the treasury cannot again be entered
for the purpose of paying the teachers
until December. However, this short
age of school funds in the treasury
‘will affect Terrell county very little,
if at all. Bv excellent management
the board of education of Terrell
county have on hand a surplus all the
time sufficient to meet any deficit of the
state treasury.
