This story should be made available f..i young men. It would be inspiyatjonable. ?:?o According to the annual report - of Chief W. II.

FOR NEC.ROgS The 1egi*to'ture will begin it* regular session next \wk.- There ought be some kind of concerted efforts on t^e part of colored citi\ zens to have it provide for the professional education of Xt^gro citir Zens. Perhaps the Stat^ Colored Teachers' Association would he the best Agency t7> fiponsor such?rr -1 movement. AVany rate, it would be tvell fhr intelligent and, pro- ( gretsive colored men ,and- women _ of ?v^ry cOtinty to bring such a ' matter to the attention of their representatives rri ttK? legislature. ; While, of course, theiy would" ^ sorrie Hvho would not receive the 'idea with'.any favor, yet. we believe . the mo^p intelligent and fair mind- 1 ed onesi would readily recognize the moral duty of the state along that! , line. The teaching profession, for j an instance, is demanding better and higher training in the school A jroom. Many of the teachers are ambitious.of persuing courses high er and broader than any now provided by the state for them, but, out of their meager earnings, they must go the great expense of going'out, of the ^aLateLXor stigb. 'Tig not true as to whitg teachfrs. The Mill.!' UL Hit1 t*X|lt'HKe m* payers provide'for them. Why, in all'reason, shoujd not such provision bo made for colored people? They are. citizens too. Ttn excel 1 t'AhJ!r?j<loate school could be providc.d_.pt the state colored college. Then," wfty should not provision be made''for Medical Training1. No u41TMisiwte the great need of physicians. The idea", being so novel for the state __ j>crhaps? it wouHf Be well "to stqp with these two professions, though jt is' the litty of the state, legal and moral, to provide for the all-round training-of the colored citizens as well as the whites. If economic conditions for the present be pleaded as a preventaat'ive for any new school^ t'hvn a beginning should be made by appropriating a fund out of which those who desire such trainvug and must find it in other, states yduld be aided?certainly to the extent of tuition Charges and rail"(did fare.
