REV, R,D, STINSON
OF NEGRO IN SOUTH
Prominent Atlantan Ad-
drosses Religious Confer
ence at Columbus, Ohio.
Spec Ini to The Georgian.
Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 7.—Rev. R. D.
Stinson, of Atlanta, one of the most
representative leaders of the negro race
»t the South, spoke before the Ohio
annual conference of the African Meth
odist Episcopal church in St. Paul
church, this city, last night.
The conference Is the most Impor
tant religious body of the negro race
in Ohio, and St. Paul church, one of
the most prominent negro churches in
the United States, has been crowded
past standing room during the ses
sions. Bishop W. B. Derrick, of New
York, is presiding. One of the notable
speeches of the conference was that of
President Joshua A. Jones, of Wilber-
force University.
Dr. Stinson spoke on the "Negro and
His Condition at the South,” and was
heard with the closest attention by the
very large audience. He said:
"The negro and his condition at the
South Is not to be viewed hastily, pes
simistically, or In the shadow of the
term ‘prejudice.’. The unselfish, rea
sonable person, who is interested in the
real substantial growth of the South
and Its pople, can not look around
Mmself when In that section and com
pare today with yesterday without
: cknpwledglng tho remarkable Im
provement by all the people from any
viewpoint. I am not unmindful of
many Irregularities In many locali
ties of that great and densely popu
lated section. Much of what appears
to he feeling and harsh criticism and
nice hate is nothing but misunder
standing between the two peoples and
the contravental Ideas are but get
ting hold of the good, the substantial
end that which will result In great
good for both.
School Room a Factor.
"The practical school room, that can
and does give the results that are In
demand, that Is, that which our section
mils for, will have almost everything
to do with the peace and happiness qf
both races. First, the schools, every
grade and class of them, must dignify
all grades and clashes of work at the
South, iitese school* must no more,
for a long time, stand for sending out
«»nly teachers, mlslsonarles, doctors,
lawyers and professionals, but the
bread-winner, the ditch digger, the
follower of the plow and hoe, the car
penter, the blacksmith, the teamster,
the coachman, the chambermaid, the
painter and every man and woman,
who do what we call "menial” work,
must get the Idea that all work Is hon
orable that gives an honest support.
The purity, chastity, good health, long
life, honesty, upright living, having
T«*methlng and being respectable has
all to do with this condition.
Time and Patience.
"Time and patience has much to do
with a fuller and wiser development of
i he things here mentioned. The youth
should be optimistically Impressed with
this fact. And, while men will talk
1m neatly, pungently and forcefully up-
"ii the text at Issue, race feeling should
not be Injected to the extent that the
real truth will not he considered when
uttered. Individual or a race who go
round with a chip on their shoulder
seeking insults, looking for prejudice,
with a view that they are being dis
criminated against, will find just what
they are looking for.
Leadership All Important.
"A wise, unselfish, clean, leadership
• *f the race, who Is interested In the
masses, who Is not given so much to
• i c!f-conslderation, self-importance and
self-place as they are to seeing that
every Idle boy, girl, woman and man
doing something that pays themselves,
the race and community has almost
everything to do with race betterment
among the millions at the South.
These leaders must be examples In the
broadest sense of the term. They
should be taxpayers, always busily em
ployed, standing for the best, sweetest
and most congenial character and are
honestly leading the people In the right
direction, realizing In the fullest sense
that many may be destroyed that oth
era may live.
Race Shares Prosperity.
"The prosperity that has come to
the South has come to us also. Quu
homes are far more numerous, and
are of the better type. Our progress
morally and intellectually has been and
is now encouraging. Our food, raiment,
sanitary condition of our homes arc
fully 50 per cent above twelve years
ago. This Is not only true in cities
and towns, but throughout the rural
districts, and on farms. We do several
million dollars’ worth of business each
year In the Southern states. Our
church and school property Is yearly
improving, both as to value and In do
ing substantial work. The negro's
contribution to the total of the South'c
labor, especially on farms, railroads,
lumber, turpentine, teamsters and do
mestic service Is more than 68 per cent.
Southern White Friends.
'It Is unfortunate for both races in
the South that my people have been
impressed for years to regard the
Southern white man as Inimical to him
and his Interests. It Is more unfortu
nate that agitation at times In these
later years has bent in that direction
that has impressed a large number of
our race. A careful study of the situ
ation will reveal the unreasonableness
of what seems to be a condition. Let
us see. These two people have been
neighbors all their lives; In times of
disparagement and discouragement,
they have been there together, amid
sunshine and cloud, they were there,
amid plenty and need they were there,
In health, In sickness and even In death
they were there and sympathized with
each other. Riding on the same train,
doing business at the same bank, buy
ing goods out of the same stores and
groceries, using the same textbooks In
school, preaching tho gospel out of one
common Book and serving the one
common Master for more than 300
years. It is absolutely unreasonable to
feel that the best negroes and white
people at the South can hate each oth-
r. Some of the wealthiest and most
ultured people of the South have bur
ied their negro servants and while mln-
ieters have preached their funerals, and
white physicians have stood by their
bedsides until they drew their last
breath. And many of these rich mas
ters who have died have often remem
bered their servants in their wills.
Four Classes at ths South.
To deal wisely, unselfishly and tact,
fully with the people and conditions In
the South Is to take under considera
tion the two races and a large element
in both races that do not understand
and have but little If anything at
intake. The South or Its better class of
people can not rise without taking Into
consideration the poverty and untrain
ed and untutored elements, especially
since that class Is In the majority. It
1? the she*'--st folly to magnify the
*hortcomlr * of our section without
recounting ..ie prosperity, permanent
growth and marvelous signs of im
provement. In due time, If we will
keep sober concerning ourselves, build
upon a permanent character, realizing
that this is the greatest asset of the
race. In fifty years, all that makes hap
py, free and substantial will be ours.
This condition will be ushered upon us
juj rapidly as the accredited leaders of
both races preach the gospel of hon
esty, unselfishness, peace, sobriety and
love of honest toll.”

business?
4. Should the Democratic party be
radical or conservative?
Governor Folk's authorized Interview
a na follows:
You ask—What Is a Democrat
A Democrat Is one who believes In
Democratic Ideas. By Democratic ideas
I mean those principles embraced In
the axiom ‘equal rights to all, special
privileges to none.’
"This maxim of Jefferson’s expresses
every essential element of true Democ
racy. It means the destruction of spe
cial privileges In every form and giv
ing to all men the equal right that be
longs to each—the fair and equal* op
portunity of each and every man to
Ive and labor upon the earth that God
has given to all, and to enjoy unre
stricted and untrammeled the fruits of
honest toll.
All Power In the People.
"A Democrat believes that all gov
ernmental power Is vested In and de
rived from the people; that It Is found
ed upon their will only, and that gov
ernment Is intended to promote the
welfare of all by giving security to life,
liberty and the enjoyment of the gains
of honest Industry.
"Your second question, as to what
will be the paramount Issues In the
coming campaign, Is one that I can not
answer. Speaking for no one but my
self, I believe the elimination of special
privileges should be the paramount Is
sue before the people of this country
the state.
"I believe that the people of the
si fates may be safely depended upon to
treat railroads and all other Interests
fairly. If they can not, then our en
tire theory of government Is wrong. If
the people of the states can not be
trusted to enact valid laws with re
speet to corporations, by what process
of reasoning can it be assumed that
they have the capacity to legislate for
the Individual citizen?
Can Not Find a Corporation.
"If one were to hunt for a corpora
tion he could not find It; he would sim
ply find Individuals exercising charter
powers conferred by a rtato. If tho
states are competent to enact laws as
to theso Individuals they are Just as
competent to legislate concerning all
of them aggregated under the form and
legni fiction of a corporation.
"If they are incapable of dealing
fairly with individuals chartered
corporations they would he Just as un
trustworthy In legislating relating to
Individual action. f
"I believe they are as competent in
one Instance as In the other, and they
would no more knowingly deal unjustly
with a dozen men actiug ns a corpora
tion than they would with one man In
Ms private capacity.
"The states create these corporations
shall they he denied control of their
creatures? If a state Is good enough t

TONIC SOL.—FOR MUSICAL NOTATION
Owing to- the difficulties of the old
notation, but few children or adults
ever become ready readers of music,
when, In fact, they should be able to
take up a plain piece of music they
never saw before and read It as readily
as they do the morning paper. This
they will do when a simpler method,
The Tonic Sol-Fa system, Is Intro
duced-Into our public schools.
The Toulc Hol-Fa system whs invented by
MIhm Hliridi Glover, of Norwich, ug.. In 1812.
The Kev. Johu Curwln lu 1841 adopted the
device of Miss Glover and gradually shaped
it into the perfect system w hich It has now
become. It was not until after several
years of experience and expense that he
was led to see thut ho hud bit upon a great
educational principle. Aud on the evidence
of hundreds of the best musicians and
musical critics, both lu England and the
United States, It la safe to ussert tbut It In
the only truly methodical, logical and con-
the special privilege of lawlessness; thelfor |t to operate In and .to make money
special privilege conferred by law, such
as the protective tariff; the special
privilege of monopoly.
"The elimination of unJupt privilege
Is a moral question. In Its last analy
sis every governmental question Is a
moral question In that It Is a question
of right or wrong.
Tariff a Moral Question.
"The tariff is a moral question,
tariff schedule deliberately designed to
give a special class a protected privi
lege and to enable the few to prey upon
the many was prohibited when the ta
bles of stone came from the thunders
of filnal In the commandment, ‘Thou
•halt not steal.*
If the tariff Is ever to be revised it
must be done not by those who think
it Is right, but by those who know' It
Is wrong and who hnte monopoly.
"Until unfair tariff schedules are
eradicated, the trust question can nev
er be settled. It Is well enough to
prosecute trusts, and It Is better still
to put some of the heads of trusts In
stripes for violating the law', but It Is
hardly practicable to attempt to sup
press the trusts with one hand w'hile
the other Is feeding them with the milk
of protection on which they become fat
and arrogant.
"They feed on a monopoly-creating
tariff. The Democratic idea Is Instead
of protecting monopoly as against the
people to protect the people as against
monopoly.
8tate Rights An Issue.
Another questloi. that will be an
fesue. no doubt, will be Jhe right of
the states to self-government as to. all
matters not delegated to the Federal
government.
"In the tendency to centralize all
power In the Federal government that
has been given huMi an impetus of late
there Is danger to the Ideas of govern
ment that were crystallized In the for
mation of the republic.
"This nation Is the greatest In the
world today because It Is an indissolu
ble union of self-governing states. Its
decline will commence when the self-
government of the state, the fountain
of Its strength. Is taken away.
"The Federal government Is su
preme In Its sphere, and the states in
theirs. Hat h working in *.ts own Juris
diction for the common good can con
tribute to. the welfare of all. The gen
eral government is one of delegate
powers.
in, It should be good erj>ugh to make
laws regulating t^je conduct of that
corporation within the state.
Senatorial Elections a Problem.
"The election of United Slates sena
tors by the people, strict regulation of
railroads and public utllltiea and a just
Inheritance tax are likewise subjects
which the Democratic party should do-
clare for.
"You usk If I think the prosecutions
of corporations for alleged violations
of law will Injure business. It will hurt
dishonest business, but I can not
how' It will hurt any honest Industry.
"Those who object to the exposure
nnd prosecution of commercial law
lessness on the ground that It hurts
business argue like the man who could
be persuaded to take a bath because
he was afraid someone might think he
needed one. Wrongs can not bo cured
by hiding them; there Is no secret rem
edy for evil.
"No man or corporation doing
honest business need fear from /he
arousing of the conscience of the peo
ple against wrong-doing. Those whose
business methods will not stand the
light of publicity have no right to com
plain.
Only Breaches of Trust Attacked.
"Wealth In Itself Is a blessing; It Is
the abuses of w*ealth that call for cor
rection. I do not believe there Is any
enmity anywhere in this country to
legitimate Industry. It is not railroads
nor Insurance companies the people
complain of, but the breaches of trust
on the part of those running railroads
or Insurance companies.
"The people understand these things,
and know that while some railroad men
and some Insurance men are crooked, it
does not follow' that all railroad men
and all Insurance men or all officials are
without honor.
eradication of lawlessness from
business helps rather than hurts legiti
mate Industry. Insurance policies are
more valuable today by reason of the
elimination of grafting on the part of
some Insurance officials. We can eat
our meat with more satisfaction since
the abuses In the beef packing business
were stopped.
"If railroads and other interests are
compelled to obey the law' It will not
retard their development nor Injure
music that has ever beeu given to the
world, and is as true -of the purely artistic
side of mualc aa It la of the popular aide.

not be conservative, for states and na

If to be radical means the Indis
