"Wi I have always stood for this insti lion/' he contmuedj "now that I ha seen it and realize as I had ne\ realized by the descriptions of it, it means, I will stand for it more th ever. ' ' The President's AddresB. To the white population as well to the black, it is of the utmost ii portance that the negro be cncoi aged to make himself a citizen of t highest type of usefulness. It is the interest the white people th this policy be conscienttiously pusue and to the interest of i he colored pe pie that they clearly realize that. th< have opportunities for economic d velopruen here in the South not no offered elsewhere. Within the la twenty years the industrial operatic] of the South have incrased so tr mendously that there is a scarcity < labor almost everywhere; so that is the part of wisdom for all who \vis the prosperity of the South to he] the negro to become in thc highe; degree useful to himself, and then fore to the community in which 1 lives. The South has always depein ed, and now depends, chiefly upon he native population for her worl Therefore in view of the scarcity nc only of common labor, but of sidle labor, it becomes doubly important i train every available man to be of th utmost, use, by developing his intel! gence, his skill and his capacity fe conscientious effort. Hence the wor pf Tuskeegee: - Normal and Tndhstrif Institute is a matter of the highes practical importance to both the whit and the black man,-and well woila th support of both races alike in th South and in thc North. Your fiftee; hundred students are not only bein; educated in tho head and heart, bu also trained to industrial emciency for from the beginning Tuskcege has placed especial emphasis upoi the training of men and women ii agriculture, mechanics and house hold duties. Training in these thro fundamental directions does not em brace al that the negro or any othe: race, needs, but it does cover in a ver] large degree the field in which tin negro can at present do most for him self and be most helpful to his whit* neighbors. Every black man wh< leaves this institute better able to d< fficciianical or industrial work, addi by so much to the wealth of th< fvhole community and benefits all peo^ 5}Ie in the community. The profes sional and-mercantile avenues to suc cess are overcrowded, for the presen! :he best chance of success awaits thc nteligent worker at some mechanical ixade or on a farm; for this man will ilraost certainly achieve industrial in dependence. I am pleased, hut not in ^the least surprised to learn thal many ?among the men and women trailed at Tuskeeatje find immediate employment as leaders and workers amone; their own people, and that their services arc eagerly sought by white people for "various kinds of indus'liai work, 1 lie demand being much greater than the supply. Viewed from any angle; ig norance is the costilesfcrop that can "be raised in any part of this Union Every dollar put into the education of citther white man or black man, in head, in hand and in thc heart, yields rich devidends to the entire commun ty. Merely from thc economic stand point it is of the utmost cons?quence to all our citizens that ins? tintions such as Tuskeegee should be a suc cess. But there are other and even higher reasons that entitle it to our support. In the interest of humanity., of justice, and of self-protection, ev ery white man in America, no matter where he lives, should try to help the negro to "help himself. It is the in terest an for the protection of the white man to see that the negro is educated. It is not only the duty of the white man, but it is to his in terest, to see that the negro is pro tected in property, in life, and in all his legal rights. Eveiy time law is broken every individual in the com munity has ihe moral tone of his life lowered. Lawlessness in the United States is not confined to uny section ; lynching is not confined io any sec tion ; and there is pc ?-ha ps no hod y of American citizens who have deserved so well of the entire American people as the public men, the publicists, thc clergymen, the countless thousands ol' ?high-minded private citizens who have done such heroic work in the South in arousing public opinion against law lessness in all itts forms, and especial ly against their example will count in the North as well as in the South, for there are just as great evils to be warred against in one region of our country as in another, though they arc not in all places the same evils. And when any body of men in any com munity stands bravely.for what is righi, those men not merely ?M-ye n useful pvyiflo 'in doing tho pfiytto* ulfly tm to which tiiey ut tK'??M|yji but give 1 lift tfl tb? ?we n? goad citizenship throughout the Union. I heartily appreciate what' you have done at Tuskegee; Ililli ? ?tul fui?? you will not grudge my saying that it could not possibly have been done save for the loyal support you have received from the white people round about; for during the 25 years of ef fort to educate thc black man here in the midst of a white eonii'millity of in telligence and eultlir?-, t?icrG ?as never been an Outbreak between" the races or any difficult j? any killel-. AU honor is due to tn? white men of Alabama, to the white hie ii di" Tuskeegee for what they have done. ?fitl right here, let me say that if in any community a misunderstanding between thc races arises, over any matter, infinitely the best way Dut is to have a prompt, frank and full confereliSe' ?iid con sultation between representatives of thc wise, decent, cool-headed men among the whites and the wise, decent, ^ool-headed colored men. Such a con f?rence will always tend to bring about a better understanding, abd will be a great help all (tronad: Hitherto ? have spoken chiefly of the obligation existing on the part of thc white man. Now let you remem ber on the other hand that no help can permanently ilVail y?u Save as you yourselves develop capacity for self help. You young colored men aid women educated at Tuskeegee must by precept and example lead your fel lows toward sober, industrious, law abiding lives. ?You are in honor bound to join hands in favor of law and order and to war against all Crime, rjspccially against all crime of men of your own race; for the heaviest Wrong done by the criminal is the Wrong to his own race. You iniiSt t?Ach the people of your race that they must scrupulously observe any contract into which they in "good faith enter, uo matter wheth er it is hard to keep or not. If you save monejT, secure homes, become tax payers and lead clean decent modest lives, you will wi nt he respect of your neighbors of both races. Let each man strive to excel his follows only by rendering 'ynbntautial service to the community in which he lives. The col ored people have matty difficulties to pass through, but these difficulties will . be surmounted if only the policy of reason and common sense is pursued. You have made real and great pro gress. According to the census the ; colored people of ibis country own and pay taxes upon something like three hundred million dollars worth of property, and have blotted out over fifty per cent of their illiteracy. "When yon have done in the past is an indica- ' lion of what you will be able to do in thc future under wise leadership. Moral and industrial education is what is most needed, in order that this progress, many continue. The ,r^?e_eannpi_expejnV^ at once. It must learn to waif land bide its time; to prove itself worthy by showing its possession of perse- . veranee, of thrift, of self control. The destiny of the race is chiefly in its own hands, and must be worked out patiently and persistently along these lines. Remember also that the white man who can be of most use to the colored man is that colored man's neighbor. It is the Southern people themselves who must and can solve the difficulties that exist in the South; of course what man in thy South lies in his steady hope of advancement for the colored commonsense effort to improve his moral and material condition and to .'work in harmony with the white man in upbuilding the commonwealth. The future of the South now depends upon the people of both races living np to the spirit, and letter of the laws o? their sev eral States and working out the des tinies of both races, not as races, but as law abiding, American citizens PROMINENT r'?OPLB.
