The beadqaartera or the board is In Pitts- <

aDd Treasurer Is Dr. E. P. Cowan, whose y
Ihrptheris a pastor In one of the Southern t
Presbyterian ebarcbes, and be himself was
the owner of slaves until tbe emancipation, c
Other members of the board are Dr. McEwln

Allegheny, but wbo Is a native or Due West, ?
being a son of tbe late Dr. J. O. Lindsay, t
There are other members of tbe board whom ?
I have Dot met. Ooe of tbe rules of ibis t
board Is tbat its ministers and teachers shall
have nothing to do with politics. This rule 1
I bave observed so strlotly tbat I have not
participated in any political discussion or i
attended any political meeting in my lile. I i
am no politician, here or elsewhere. i
Is yours a Republican institution In whlcb '

' Is composed of Democrats and Republicans, J

Why la It that the Northern board does not I
atk some of the Southern men to co-operate l

pn, I have approached several white gentltmen I
hto of Abbeville to take positions as trustees of
onr college, and we would be glad to have s
the them to do so, but the gentlemen approached c
5re- thought itunneoesaary to act aa trustees. t
Have yon ever bad reports from citlsens aa o

Never. I have endeavored to avert all improper

lesire to remain bere agalnat tbe wlphes of
try conatderable comber of good people.
Why did yon leave town lest week?
1 went to Baltimore to aee my only slstpr,
rho was at that time greatly prostrated by
iffllotlon. I returned aa pood as pocplble.
What bave yon bad to do witb tbe labor
trganlzationa among tbe negroei?
I don't know of any labor organization, and
lever beard ofany until tbe laat lew daya. I
lon't believe tbere are any labor oiganlzeiods.
I bave coonieled my people to work,
iven opposing tbe nanal balf holiday on Satirdaya.
How do you account for tbe ecarclty of
abor and tbe blgb price demanded?
Tbere are now more wblte people needing
servants everywhere. Tbe blgb prices paid
lor labor elsewhere baa attracted nam hers of
negroes to olber cities and communities,
rbe demand la greater than tbe supply. To
abvlate one of these difficulties we bave always
closed our school on tbe first Monday In
May to allow the boya and glrla to reach
bome In time to help make the crop. Boya,
on request, bave been eirutcd on tbe firat of
April. Other schools generally continue a
month or more longer tbsn mine.
Were you or any o: your studeDta or teacbera
in any way responsible tor tbe disturbance
in town on tbe day of tbe unveiling of
ihe monument?
The negroes who were responalble for tbe
excitement that day are unknown to me. I
lava never seen tbem, and tbey are in so
way, dlrectly?or Indirectly, connected with
ibe college, or associated with It. It I bad
my advice to give them It would be to atay
in their places. Those wbo raise dlaturDances
are frlenda to neither race.
Have yon been paying bills for yoniaelf and
ibe school?
Yes, sir; we pay all our bills. We have
pent In tbla town In tbe laat fonrteen years 1
>ver 8100,000. And we owe no outstanding
