SOLVING THE RACE PROBLEM
Public Schools of tho South Tending Toward
Industrial Education.
EQUAL FACILITIES GIVEN BOTH RACES
Superintendent ler( lilvcs the Ile
utt of III Ohservntlons Dur
ing inn Itceeiit Trip
(o Charleston.
"If tho public schools of Charleston are
reprtsontatlvo of tho schools of the south
tho solution of tho Industrial problem among
tho negrdes and poor white people has been
found. Booker Washington and his fol
lowers havo preached tho doctrlno of In
dustrial education so persistently that a
manual training school hso been established
In the city of Charleston, where both black
and white children will be prepared for
tho trades, noys will bo Instructed in tho
use of tools and girls will be taught simple
cooking, sewing and domestic economy,"
said Sunerlntendcnt Carroll 0. Hearse of the
city schools, who has returned from the
annual meeting of tho National Educational
nfsoclatlon which wai, recently held nt
Charleston.' S. C.
"The public schools of Charleston offer
equally good advantages to white and colored
children. Separate schools are maintained,
but whlto teachers are employed In all the
schools and the teachers are transferred
indiscriminately among tho buildings for
tho negroes and the whites. Although
nlne.teutns of the school tax Is paid by
wtittn nrnr.le. the funds arc apportioned
equally among tho children of the 35,000
negroes and the 35,000 whlto people In the
city. The school buildings for tho two
races aro emially good and are superior to
the public school buildings In many of the
older cities In tho north, though thoy can
not be compared with the modern buildings
in Denver, Omaha; Minneapolis and other
newer cities.
"Charleston does not have the continual
friction between the races that la reported
from other portions of the south. The
negroes seem to bo very courteous and the
relations between them and tho wblto people
are pleasant. There are few unemployed
negroes loafing on the streets and tho poor
whites that loiter about many cities are not
to bo seen. I was told, however, that tho
condlttcns along the coast are much better
than In the Interior portions of the state."
The attendanco nt Charleston wan much
lesfl than it has been at former meetings of
tho association. Only 3,000 educators were
present, but these were mostly men and
women who hold high places In the educa
tional world. The attendance at Los
Angeles last year was three or four times
greater than that of the Charleston meet
ing, and the falling off In attendance was
duo largely to tho lack of Interest among
teachers in the south. Tho meeting was
located at Charleston at the earneit request
of southern teachers, who felt that their
schools needed tho Inspiration of such a
meeting, but the representation from south
cm states, other than South Carolina, was
very small. Hxtremely hot weather th
week before the meetings and ths close
policy of tho railroads also did much to
leastn tho attendanco.
Visitors llonttahl- Kutertaluod.
"Charleston dd Itself proud In tho manner
In which It entertained tbe visitors. Every
romfort was provided for the delegates and
tho cordiality with which they were wel
corned Into the best homes of the city was
something that has not been experienced
in any other city. Many of the leadln
clliienti returned from their summer homes
and opened their Charleston residences for
tho entertainment of visiters. If all south
ern cities were as active In promoting edu
cation as Charleston other meetings would
go Into the southern states, but It Is not
likely I but the association will send Its
convention south again for somo years.
Detroit and Cincinnati aro fighting for the
ext meeting. Cincinnati Is putting up a
better campaign, but most educators seem
to favor Detroit, and tho executive council
will probably decide on the Michigan city.
Tho location will bo announced about
Thanksgiving. .
"From the standpoint of attendance and
general excellence tho Charleston meeting
was no better than the Transmlssissippl
Educational convention held in Omaha in
1S9S. Delegates were at Charleston from
wider territory, but tho programs were
no bettor than those offered In Omaha. Thj
Omaha convention bad the best educators
wet of tho Mississippi river and offered
programs that wero tho equal of any I
have beard at tho National Educational as
sociation's meetings.
"I believe that Charleston and South
Carolina were greatly benefited by the
convention. North .Carolina, Florida and
Georgia also manifested considerable Inter
est In tho meetings and tad qulto a num
ber of delegates In attendance. However,
the delegation from the entire south, ex
clusive of South Carolina, was not as largo
as the Colorado delegation at the Denver
meeting in 1896."
Nebrarka had about fifty delegates at
Charleston, while at other meetings of tho
association it has usually bad three time
that number. Principal A. II, Water
house of the Omaha High ochool was se
lected as a member of the nominating
committee, and Mr. Pearse was made
director for Nebraska and given a place
on the educational council. J. W. Dins-
more of Deatrlce was president of tho ele
mentary department at Charleston and of
fered one of the best programs of the meeting.

Euclid Martin wlll'leavo for Indianapolis
Tuesday afternoon to attend the meeting of
the national committee of the national
gold democratic party, which will meet on
Wednesday to consider tho advisability of
putting a ticket In tho field this fall. Mr.
Martin is the Nebraska member of tho committee.
"I don't know nnythlng about tho probablo
action of tho committee," said Mr. Martin,
'except what I have seen in tho papers. You
probably noticed In tho dispatches that quite
an influential organization nas neon enectca
In New York mid that a committee from It
will attend the Indianapolis meeting, for the
purpose, I take It, of securing the organiza
tion of a new party and the nomination of a
ticket on which tho gold democrats, anti-
Imperialists and Independents can unite.
Dut whether wo put up a ticket or not, It is
proper, I think for our committee to
meet. The committee and the party it rep
resents havo had a mission and It is but
proper that it should meet and disband or
close up Its business in case it concludes
not to put a ticket in thii field this year."

Mr. Holdrcge has Just returned from an
extended tour over the western lines of the
Burlington In company with President Por
klns. "Our trip was merely an ordinary
tour of Inspection," he said. "We went out
to Denver and took a run over the various
Nebraska branches. Of course, wo found
everything In splendid condition. The big
rains of tho last week have been of Inesti
mable good and crops aro In an altogether
satisfactory condition."
Large sales of land continue to present
an unfailing Index of tho prosperous condi
tions existing throughout tho entire west
at this time. There has been no falling off
or depression in business usually incident
o the summer preceding a national elec
tion, and present Indications nre that July's
sales will amount to over 100,000 acres.
Two exceptionally largo sales havo al
ready been made this mouth. Jarvis Rich
ards, a member of the big cattle firm of
Richards Bros. & Comstock nt Chadron,
Neb., has closed a deal whereby 11,166 acres
of land in Albert county, Colorado, came
Into his possession. The Richards own tho
argest cattle rnnch in Nebraska, tho tract
comprising a major portion of tho sand hills
region In the western part of the state. It
Is authentically asserted that their pur
chaso of a big area in Colorado docs not
contemplate tho closing down of the opera
tions tn NebrtBku, but raeroly an expansion
of tbe business.
Another Nebraska Institution, the Pratt,
Land and Cattlo company, Omaha, of which
E. W. Speed Is manager, figured ns the
purchaser In the largest land 'tale made this
month. Mr. Speed hns Just completed tho
purchase of 19,640 acres in Lincoln county,
Nebraska. The big tract will be used by tbe
Pratt company for the pasturage of Its cat
tle.
Land Commissioner McAUastcr has been
In Carbon county, Wyoming, going over a
large tract of land owned by tho Union Pa
cific along tho North Platte river between
Fort Steelo and Saratoga. Tbe railroad
company Is getting this land in shape to be

of a similar character In Wyoming.
General Western Agent Wetland of the

BOND COMl'A.W 'WINS ITS SUIT.
Court HoIiIn .hat Us Conditions llnd
lleen Vlnlnted.
A telegram from St. Louis announces that
In tho case of Rice Bros. &. Nixon against
the Fidelity Deposit company of Maryland
tho United States court of appeals has held
that a surety company does not have to pay
the Indemnity provided In the bond whero
the Individual who holds that bond violates
any of the agreements of the contract to
which the signatures are attached.
This case went up on an appeal from the
decision ' of Judje Carland of the United
States district court of South Dakota, before
whom the case was tried at Omaha In 1898
The caso was argued In St. Louis last Jan
unry on appeal. In this case the plain' I
sought to recover Indemnity of 810,000 on
bond given by W. J. Perry, who was an cm-
ployd of the firm, alleging that Perry was
short in his accounts. The Jury returned
a verdict finding that Perry was not short
and that there was no liability. On the ap
peal the decision of tho court was on a ques
tlon of law not entering upon the question
of the shortage. There were so many points
of a similar naturo raised by tho attorneys
for the bond company that they cannot tell
from tho telegram upon what point their
contention was sustained,

Due Tho Ilec Under Decree.
Tho decree of the United States circuit
court has been filed In the case of The Bee
Publishing Company against W. R. Hearst
and Is a distinct victory for the company
At tho time the memorandum opinion wa
filed giving Judgment for The Beo Publish
Ing company for the amount of money due
on tho business completed, it was also de
elded that the business now before the gov
eminent bureaus chould be completed by
the respondent and that as tbe money wa
paid In by tho claimants It should be dl
vlded between the parties to the suit, and
for the purpose of enforcing the decree th
caio was to bo kept open",
Upon this the attorneys for tbe respondent
contended that the complainant should be
required to file supplemental bills and In
stltute ancillary actions whenever he bad
cauee to believe that tho respondent had I
his possession money which should be paid
In conformity with the decree. The contcn
tlon of tho attorney for the complainant
was that the respondent having full Know!
edge of tho condition of tbe business, should
severe fracture of tho right leg that ho
hnajieen confined lo his bed for four months
and has Incurred a doctor's hill of $100. In
addition he was prevented from exerting his
arntng capacity of 825 a week. It Is tho
petitioner's opinion that Dlllrancc knew of
tho animal's vicious and depraved heart
when Gwycr hired him,
Dlllranco says that tho horse had been tn
his stable for a long period nnd has always
borno a good reputation. Ho knows noth
ing of tho circumstances surrounding the
Ollcltor's .accident, but believes that It oc
curred cither through Owyer's bad driving
or some unforeseen circumstances for which
he, as the nnlmal's owner, could not bo held
responsible.

Crowded from Ills Itlnhl of Way.
Mr. Farrlngton Powers, living in one of
two contiguous dwellings at Twenty-eighth
and Woolworth avenue, has asked for a per
petual order of court to prevent his neigh
bor, Mr. Lowell Cash, from crowding him
off the sidewalk. Tho two families formerly
dwelt together in unity and used a common
walk ffom the gate to a Junction near their
front porches.
Mr. Powers claims, however, that Mr
Cash has lately evinced far from a neigh
borly spirit and has forbidden any of the
Powers family to tread upon the plank
walk. It was Mr. Cash's belief that the
walk was entirely within his own domain
Cash resorted to forcible measures to main
tain his sole right of way and Powers se
cured a temporary restraining order sev
eral days ago.
The caso camo up on Its merits In Jgdge
Keysor's court and Cash announced that ho
was averso to going to law and would dls
miss the case. Tho court cflled his at
tentlon to tho fact that be was the de
fendant and therefore not properly qualified
to tako such action. He gave Mr. Cash an
other week In which to preparo his defense
