Dr. Bean says, in view of the established iacts regarding the negro brain, his nature, and characteristics, it is absolutely essential that the negro be trained in a school. The object to be attained in a school of training the true negro is to cultivate his natural endowments and fit him for positions that h<i can till. The training should be in manual labor of various kinds, useful in the industrial development of the South.^ The true negro* Ts capabftT of learning in only one way,?objectively, by con-t crete perception and by memory of individual facts. He should be taught practical subjects in a practical way. Dr. Bean says that there art thousands of negroes being educated today and it would be' better to direct that education in the proper way rather than to allow it to breed mischief, as it has done in the past. His plan is, that schools be established, presided -....I . u i.:i. ?? !- ?u:~u w?v? <iiiii iiui^m uy wiiiic linn, in wiiieu the negro must be trained according to his capacity, and that those s<f trained should go among those of theif race and teach, and devote themselves to the education of their own race^ In order that such men may be hnpressed with the conditions of thei ; own people and their needs, the should go among and study the prob lem in some large city like Baltimore New Orleans, Atlanta, where the ne gro is at home in large number* They should study disease at fimt hand among their own people.

For our 11 own preservation and purity, then, we d should foster such education as tends! t, to the cleansing of the nation. It; ; would be easier to change the ignorance, immorality and diseased conoi tion of yte negro that not alter hj|\ brain or mental capacity, remove l^s past, eradlWte race prejudice, change i_ the attitude of the races, eliminate the i [, mulatto element, perfect the habits of | the ir?fcro, or provide the administration of justice to all alike. We fully!

There '' are several characteristics ami. attributes of the negro which drtiitatl^ss have escaped the learned Dr. Bean, and many others who have written up' on the negro problem, among which is an utter hack of gratitude, or moral obligation; to what section of the brain )' is wholly or in part responsibje'we are not sufficiently versed in anatomy to ' determine. The negro by nature has ' no energy; is thriftless and shiftless. Doubtless under the manner of train *' ing suggested the negro might become industrious and frugal and less prodie gal. If by compulsory education (not otherwise) they would be compelled to '* learn and practice such as is within their capacity, thus by education and force of habit they become industrious ,a and economical, this would*be a great' II stride towards good citft^nship that ir they never yet attained, ft is the idle, jkKfaot, who commits the crimes, becaXse they have nothing else to do.

The activity of the preachers of North Carolina in trying to improve I moral conditions in that State, has brought to front a school of political Critics, who talk learnedly about the preacher meddling in politics. These critics are in every county and every town. It has ever been thus. God's faithful ambassadors cannot expect to find favor in the eyes of men who are allied, for political purposes, with i the forces of evil. It is good for North ! Carolina that shr has in the pulpits of | tne men who are not afraid of I |ine ^'P-'ash of the political boss, or Jfeartnc criticisms of those who jW^mSCilibas. . There are lots of little fellows going j about over the land who, in their great wisdom, talk about "Blue Laws" and "Closed Towns" and "Puritanical People," and so on. These fellows iflsually wear good clothes, drink liquor, smoke cigarettes, patronize gambling places and cuss. No, no, they don't i want any restrictions laid on them. ; They want all the pasture fences torn down, that they may go it wild. And were it not for the oversight of oilier heads and the restraining influence of the preachers of the gospel, these yotmg swell-heads would soon be helpless in the quagmires of self-destruc-1 tion. They kick against "preacher dominavoung fel- J t>v who is opposed lo the chosen min- j nter of God proclaiming against the sits of the day and trying to elevate' this sin-cursed race, has got on the, wrong track?that's all. And ii he doesn't turn right about face he is sure to wind up in company with Dives. We'll follow the leadership and companionship of the preachers every time. They know a sight more about politics than they are given credit for. As a rule, they keep out of partisan politics, except when some moral i>>ue is involved. And the way they do pitch in then does our sou! good, and we believe it makes the angels of heaven happy.
