After two years of figuring the fol

In June 1800 was mnde public on Fri

and 67M1* females,the aggregate white

Noble, has hitherto obstinately with
held three InstaHments, amounting to
tlM,000, from ^outh Carolina under the
Morrill Act, although he has promptly
paid over their respective quotas to all
the other htatea. Mr. Tillman Intro
duced a BUI at the present session of
Congress to compel payment to this
State and succeeded eadly In passing
the BUI through the ) Ion so by the fol
lowing strong speech delivered Oth J one
1892 *
: Mr. TUlmatu Speaker, If all the
fact* upon which this MW is based were
thoroughly known, l have no idea that
a gentleman On either side Of the House
would vqto against it. The bill simply
eoiiHtVmv* the meaning of an aqt passed
by Coogresaton the30th of August, 1 $!>0,
making, According to it* title, hii ap
propriation of funds arising from the
sale of rhe public lands for the purpose
of better promoting collegiate educa
tion, especially of colored youth, In all
tho States. ; ^
We all know that tlie Federal Govern
ment has never appropriated a dollar of
money.or an acre of land or. any other
of Its assets to promote the cause of
coin mom school education In the old
States—-that ‘Is, tho thirteen original
States, and such States as wore carved
out of their neighboring territory like
Maine, Vermont, Kentucky, and Ten
nessee; and that it has only donated
lands to assist com mon-school edpea-
linn In tha new fliatm. We likewise
know the Government has been libcml
and generous In promoting not only
common-school education in the new
States, hut also collegiate education.
Never till 18G2 did it make any contri
bution toward collegiate education in
the old States. In that year a bill was
passed donating 30,000 acres of land for
•aeh Renreseutatlve In Congress and
each ruilod States Senator from every
State in the Union, for the purpose of
establishing an agricultural and me
chanical college In each State, with
military tactics as an Incident.
In 1887 the National Government fur
thermore passed another act donating
each year |ir*,t«s) to enable each State—
old States as well aa new—to establish a
a dentlfic experimental agricultural sta
tion. And then, again, In 1800 the
third act was passed donating f 15,000
per year to further enlarge the curricu
lum of these collegea w hich the Federal
Government had founded, and especi
ally colored colleges—appropriating
f 15,000 the first year, $10,000 the second,
and soon for ten years, until the annu
al appropriation should reach $25,000.
Now, as to the first act appropriating
land scrip to Month Carolina, the first
“carpet-hag,” governor that we had—
Scott from Ohio— *uld that laird scrip,
I «s wo thought, for l«ss than hstf. prob-'
ably less than one-third, a lint it was
worth; but he did not atral the prlnci-
I pal of w hat he did get. One of Id* «uc-
1c*. w ho,

I believe, was a South Carolii
W* have enured the last half of rite
year. The business gluotn that dark
ened lu begtaelng has given way be
fore the g roar th of the spring and the
ripening of the aitauaur. The grain
c«wp waa fair, tho eorn crop, now as
sured, will he larger Bough for man and
heart and few of on/ farmers will have,
flor the next twelve moo lit, to look in
the cribs and siunhe bouses that they
need to keep In the Wet!. The cotton
crop has mode great Imprevemoat In the
lost few weeks and the yield promises
to he satisfactory, loss la quantity,
•wing to the reduction In acreage.and
tho nee of commercial fertilisers, with
the prospect of boiler prless than wire
obtained for the last. The cost of mak
ing It has been Wss too, and with Ilia
general economy that has been prac
tised there is a lively hops that we have
at last struck the right road to tetter
tlmoa.

scalawags !• th« way of thievery per
haps that the Mia Is ever produced, did
the job of pilfering the fund, lie and!
liU *«4utly earprt-hag associates made
away with the w hole fund—IlM^JUb.
Now. what did the whits people do
wheu they recovered control of tb* Mtatn
government In 187*7 The first thing
they did was to make that debt good by
taxation. They lassed- perpetual e«d-
lege land strip fur the whole amount
that hail been stolen and guaranteed 6
per cent Interestawi it, a.iiinegh the as t
ol t engreaa rr<«|«tlrsd octlv a guaranty
of ft per neat interest. With the fund
thus provided the whites founded one
agricultural college for the Caueaslan
raoa and one for colored students, and
gave the college for colored suideuta
one-half of tl*s whole Income fn.m the
fund, amounting annually to
_• • ~
U
but l*elng ito author, as
ina) author of all the bills malting
nations for collegiate education in
old Mutes:
Mr.Cullom. I should like to know
whether on a. donation of tbte land
where two Institutions are established,
it Is Under an act of the Legislature or
the discretion of the Secretary of the
Treasury as to the amount that each
pollege shall receive?
Mr. Morrill. It Is in the discretion of
the LegUrlature.
The debate further shows that this
was the construction agreed upon
among both Kepublicans and Demo
crats In the Senate whore the bill orig
inated. - u - ; n
Yet the Secretary of the Interior un
dertook to say that he was to be the
solo judge of how the fund was to be
appropriated. And although In the
cases of Louisiaua and Mississippi they
having, like Mouth Carolina, a larger
colored than white population, he al
lowed those States to take this fund and
dispose of it as the Legislature thoughts
fit; lie withheld the fund,from Soutlr*'
Carolina.
I do not know’, Mr,. Speaker, that I
need say anything more after wh it has
been sowed said by Judge Taylor of
Ohio. But as l am np, if the House will
indulge mo for a few minutes longer, I
want to mention some.other facts bear
ing upon the subject. Not only has
Mouth ( arollna donated as 1 have men
tioned $10,574 a year to this colored col
lege which she Was under no obligation
w hatever to do, except that of a change
of nolioy, and In a spirit of liberality
ami generosity fee the cause of colored
education, but Wf State likewise levied
a tax of 3 mills annually on all property
in the State tor common school purpo
ses.
lihc white people, who own nearly all
the property, voluntarily imposed that
tax upon themselves in 187U at the very
election In which they overthrew the
carpet-bag regime. Under that consti
tutional school tax the Plate Collects
annually on her property about. $3U0 t -
000 in addition to a large poll tax for
educational purposes, beside which each
township can levy a special school tax
upon Itaelf; and'while, as remarked l.y
the gentleman from Ohio, our whites
embrace only about two-flftbs and the
colored three-fifths of the total popula
tion,and while the colored population
pay less than one-flfth ( of the school tsx
on property, and while wo bad but
about 03,000 while school attendants last
year to 11fi,O0>> oulored school atteud-
ants, yet the schools of both races were
and are kept open the same length of
time every year.
Now, they know of those facta In the
D*’|*artiuert of the Interior; they ad
mit It lu the very report they sent to
t'ongress about two ramuht ago, certi
fying that they had paid out all of the
oollcge fund to the other Mtates under
the act of |8!J0; yet after I had Impor
tuned thrm three or four times to do
simple justice to my Plate, and after I
had showed them the debate In the sen
ate, that left no particle of doubt sbout
the tacts of the case and tho proper con
struction of the art, still, fmm sheer ob-
srinacy or from some political or fauat-
I leal reason, I was forced to Introduce
this bill and ask the Judiciary Commit-
te«U> bring It before the House. Tbs
I only reason the Pecrvtary of the lute-
I respectfully announce myself a can-
for renomltiatlon to Congress In
the Second District, subject to the Dem

shall the provision made for colored Tilhnnn has nothing tinner upon which
co : lege* be diminished, lost or misap

The Rot by its title and provisions
says that tlie purpose was to make more
liberal provision for higher education
of the JoTofci'd race. It provides that
the Legbdatnre of tho State may pro
pose “a just and equitable division,”
and that tl(e officers of both the white
and colored colleges benelitted by the
fund shall make an annual detailed re
port to the Secretary of Agriculture
and to the Secretary of the Interior in

properly applied or not as regards col
ored collegiate education.
Now, tlie Secretary of the Interior
has certified that ail the other States are
entitled to tIUs fund except South Car
olina. Why he excluded her I can not
see. I do not know whether politics
had any thing to do wdth It, In view of
the national Presidential nominating
convention. 1 do not know whether
fahatielsm, obstinacy, or ignorance
caused tho Commissioner of Education
