But the avtragf Southerner altar reading Waihlagtoa Gladden s
contribution to the discussion of the negro problem. In the current Aster
lean Megatlnc, feels that the author. tUto other philanthropists of hla
section, I* strangely Ignorant of the fundamental facts of the problem
Itself. . ’ A 3
Then' sir trims striking admissions In the Olsdden stUt-le. however,
which we desire to point orjt. Tha vary title, "The Negro Crisis," Is an
ndmlseioa. Dr. Gladden holds the North responsible for nil (he conse
quences of the emancipation of the slaves, as It eras responsible for eman
cipation Itnelf- He has to confess, however, that there la a sentiment at
the North that says the negro ought to be disfranchised; that there are
-'multitudes In the North” who would shut the door of opportunity Ip bis
race; that the oegroee are uot admitted ta the trades unions Id the North,
and that, on tha "whole, the economic opportunity of the negro le better
at the South than at the North.
' And we may be permuted to remark just here that until the North
duea give a better chance, to the negro to make a living than the South
doM. It Is In no position to preach to the goutb about the denial of po
litical ambitions, the right to make a living being rather more » pel-
tnsry and necessary right than the privilege of lift suffrege.
The suffrage hardly profits a man who has been starved to deeth.
But tbe chief text lor Dr. Gladden's lucubrations Is n prediction of
Cerl Schurs's that ^'there will he e movement Other. In the direction ot
reducing the negro W a permanent condiUon of rerfdom, tr n movement
In tbe direction of recognizing him as * citizen In the full eense or the
term.” Vv ., . ( . .
Dr. Gladden asserts that tbs tqnnar movement has already ..begun In
the South nod hag strong support In the North- He Instances the re
cent Georgia campaign for the governorship as proof. Ha says: "The
riot at Atlanta was the natural outcome of the exneerbetlou of feeling
egalust the oegroee to which the campaign so largely contributed.'' Noa»
for a full grown white man who muet have known that the riots were
excited by Uto satM cause or the asms crime, which always excites
them, to go back to a political campaign that bad been finished, for the
cause of the riots, la either mooamentatly nitty or wilfully misleading.
The whole thloklng country knows better.
Nor Is his argument much better, that tbe suffrage amendments of
other states bad not contributed to the more peaceful relations between
tha races. It la tbe one unspeakable crime tbet disturbs that relation,
now, and we suppose Dr. Gladden will hardly bring tha accusation
against tbe uegroet tbet the assaults upon white women are a revenge
by tha uegroet for their elimination at voters.
There ars many otfiar evidences of Ignoranoe. as for Instance, the
confounding of the negroes lynched fur the uanet crime with tbe actual
number of Criminals In that particular. But we pat* on to the heart of
the enblect. _—_—.— . . —
Tbe alternative of making tbe negro a “full citizen" has already the
disadvantage of hopeless failure. It la difficult to Imagine any more
favorable circumstances for that experiment than ware afforded In tbe
South In reconstruction times. It Is not, aa Dr. Gladden admits, tbe
South alone that confesses that failure. The nation will not have to
pass through that experience again. The hope may aa well be dismissed
that tbe male of tbe negroes will ever enjoy full citizenship In this
white men's country agilh.
But the other alternative Is not serfdom: There Is no desire any
where In the South to enslave the negro. Yet the South has set her
face as a flint In tbe direction of the control of the negro for the pro-'
teetlon of both races and of the negro race ag.vurt extermination.
The fonrtoenth amendment Is going to be made a dead tatter Just aa
tbe fifteenth has already been. And It la not that the Southern white
men wanu to keep tbe negro down. It Is that the Southern white man
knows that the negro cannot be lifted Into equality frith himself.
It la not far off theorizing about this with us. as In the ease of
Gladden and Carl Schurz. It la sober feet that we are dealing with.
The negro- te the criminal class. Is Increasing In criminality, and tbe
Southern white people are going to find Away to administer the laws eo
That he ahall not he ruined by the system of liberty under taw which tbe
aadbkood. r - — — * 1 ..... r:~~ Tl
LJ I li lit toot the "opportunities of manhood" from which the South
went* to abut out the,negro, which would array the opposition of the
delated world. It Is from the oppartunlttse for crime, for turning liberty
Into license, that the South would ehut him out.
And then we have Dr. Gladden's solution, by the way of unfulfilled
prophecy. There will be. saye he. with this effort to reduce the race to.
eerfdom. a general race war. In which the negroes must suffer moat, but
which will result In the forcing of tha combatants apart by the nation.
Then, elnce the two races have proved tbit they cannot live together,
the threat Is that the negroee muet be segregated In the 8outb, the white
people giving up sufficient territory for aucb segregation.
Has Dr. Gladden never heard of tbe success of those segre
gallon experiments called Heytl end San Domingo? Really, It deporta
tion la the Impossibility that tbe doctor thinks It Is. would even the cou-
dltlon of serfdom be worse for the negroee then entrehy?
Tbe doctor from ble far-away Northern home pooh-poohs the
Southern dreed of criminal assaults If social relations are tolerated and
gives "the experience of those who have been engaged In teaching the
negroes." i. ,/ '<'
He says: "One society, with which 1 have been closely connected,
has brought many hundreds of white.women Into eoelel relations with
negroes; they have lived together under the seme roof, eaten at the
same table, associated as eoelel equals"—end eo on. eml the further
fact la staled that there has been no tendency to marrlugn nr to as
eattlt upon these white wotneu “by the thousand* of negroes who have
been Inmstes of these Institutions." We may baeard the.guess that one
or more of these Institutions Is on the outskirts of Atlanta.
We suppose Dr. Gladden will never nnderatabd it, but this descrip
tion by him of the social relations between Nnrtbern white teachers and
negroes Is the main reason. In our opinion, tor the very'race hatred
which Hr. Gladden deplores. This Is the kind of a blunder that Is so
much worse than a crime at tbe tempter la worse then the tempted.
It was criminal for tbsse self-appointed teachers of the negroee to be eo
Ignoraut of tbe negro character, eo Ignorant of human blator.v and so
blinded by prejudice to the cold feels of the situation, as to think tbst
they could bring about social recognition of tbe negroes by Ate whit*
people. They only succeeded, perhaps without design. In putting the
foolish thoughts Into the nsgro's head that have resulted In fiendish ecu
aud l hell fearful punishment.
- And Ihe hypocrisy ot the Thing Is so plain, sloe*, outside these Instl-
tuttons. or with a few exceptions, theme social privileges are given to the
negroes about as little In the North as In the South.
And when one thinks of what tha negro haa Buffeted from his fool
friends of the North, one Is Inclined to say that be has been mine
sinned against than sinning. There Is no amount or education that will
stone for such a teaching by dally example to negro youth as that he
may attain to social equality wtth the white man. No wondor that such
teaching has boro* Us rrult after forty year*, end that Atlanta, the very
center ot negro education of the world, should have yielded the most
startling prods of negro criminality tn the history ot negro crime tn the
South. j
In one sense tbe negro problem It a uettonal problem. It Is becom-
lug more s national problem with the remove) of the uegroes to the
Northern cities. But until the average Northerner learns the folly of
curing the evil by absent-treatment; until men of the North cease to
couslder themselves competent to handle the problem without any
study ot the conditions at Drat band, tbe South will Juet try tn worry
aloug without assistance', and will find n way to control the negro. Just as
she has fouud the way to eliminate him as a factor In Southern political

' That la the argument for Immigration In a nut shell.
But on the other hand It is Just as wpll to koow that the farmer* of
this atate. and they are always entitled to the nary highest consideration,
are viewing with great conservatism and with same protest the move
ment for immigration. The speech of Hon. Thomas E. Watson to the
farmers* mass meeting on Tuesday night emphasises this spirit of great
conservatism toward the immigration movement, and tbe speech of-Presi
dent Jordan of the Cotton Ahsoclstlon Id OIrmlogbam waa equally. If not
more, emphatic along this Identical line. . s' ’
Of onq thing Tbe Georgian feels definitely assured and Is therefore
al llberiy to apeak. The great majority of thq people of Georgia are utter
ly opposed to any Immigration unleas It be carefully and conscientiously
selected from the better class of people whom we can bring here from tbe
better countries of the old world. If we can get good Swedes, we want
them. If we can get good ■ Norwegians, ws want them. If we can bring
hare a good class of Germans, or Scotchmen or Englishmen or French
men. we will welcome them. -But the great body of thla people would tw
utterly opposed to any plan of Immigration so loosely constructed as to
pat ns In danger of peopling the South with the Hungarians and tbe Bo-‘
hemlics and the unthrifty people of Southern Italy, whence so much of
our Immigration haa hitherto been brought to us.
We say frankly to those who are Interested In Immigration, that It
must be mide crystal'clear that tbe tides of ImmlgraUba miist come Rom
tbe very best sources or we shell not went them at all. A* one factor
In public opinion,-The Georgian state* it a* the price of Its own support
that It must be made clear to the whole people, first of all th^t the Immi
gration movement to Oeorgla Is founded upon lines of careful selection
and secldalon. •
Tbe farmers or Georgia will protest tbe Importation of cheap labor
and the Introduction of rival elements on their adjoining farms. The la
boring men have these same, apprehensions end objections. ,
Both of these classes we believe would not only oppose but would be
cheerfully willing to co-operate with the Introduction of worthy and de
sirable Immigrants for cooperation !u Ihe future industrial growth of
tbe country. %
But tbe whole success of the Immigration movement In Georgia aa
far as It la to be backed by tbe Indispensable Indorsement of the majorl-
iy.of the people, must be founded upon the assurance made defiait*-and .
clear tbat the foreigners who come here must be of such a type that we
can live with them In peace and at tbe proper time amalgamate them in
to our rectal as well as Into our Industrial life.
Chairman Betjeman has given this assurance In emphatic terms.
We shall be glad to open to him tbe columns of Tbe Georgian to elabo
rate the assurance In tbe methods and plans by whlcb this careful selec
tion and seclnslon Is to be maintained.
