The following address was received by Tub Beacox from a personal friend of the author General V. P. Roberts and while The Beacon has already announced itself as favor ing the candidacy of Hon. John II. Small for Congress, we take pleasure in giving it space as it is a matter of much intereet to our readers, and contains sound Democratic doctrine Knd good common sense. In favor ing the candidacy of Mr. Small, however, we wish to be clearly un derstood as entertaining no views of disparagement to Gen. Roberts. We recognize in him a gentleman of the highest order, a patriot of great pub lic worth, with a brilliant public record which in peace and in war reflects splendid lustre upon the his tory of the Confederacy and of North , Carolina. We invite of our readers a careful and intelligent consideration of his candidacy : To my Democratic Fellow Citizens of the First Con gressional District of North Carolina: At the Convention to be held in the District during the Summer or early Fall to nominate a candidate to represent the District in the next Congress rny name will be presented for nomination for that position. In making this announcement' it is due to you to say, that I stand firmly and immovably on the time honored principles of the democratic party as announced from time to Athens, Tenn., Jan. 27, 1901.

In regard to State policies : candor I compels me to say that I am unalter ably opposed to the position taken by some prominent members of the Democratic party in the State on some questions which vitally concern our people. It seems to me that; some of our friends have gone wild or become mad on the subject of universal education. I am forever and eternally in favor of white su premacy in the State, and' to that end favor the education of the white race to the full extent of every re source and all the means at our com mand. But reason, common sense, experience, justice and our economic and industrial conditions constrain me to take the position that it is folly and madness, insanity and sui cide to exteud the same equal privi leges of education to the negro race by taxation. In the first place, the negro is not like tho white race, and the reason is, because God has not made them alike. It is not the fault cf the negro. The Leopard cannot change his spots nor the Etheopian his skin. Secondly, only two years ago iu order .o free ourselves from certain intolerable and unbearable evils, destructive alike to the best interests of both races, biought about in the counties with large ne gro populations by the unfortunate enfranchisement of the negro, we were forced to make an eli'ort to amend the State Constitution. The main provision incorporated in the amendment, to remedy the evils we were suffering, was, the educational qualification in order to eliminate the great mass of negroes lrom the electorate. Now by this howl for universal education, it is proposed to destroy the only provision m the amended 'Constitution which gives any protection to decent government in tho negro ridden counties, and thus place them in the same position they were before the constitution was amended. It is idiotic to sup pose that the negro educated wilt not continue to vote against every interest of the white and against his own interests in these negro coun ties, and every other county, just as he has done for more thai u third of a century. The negro is by nature and instinct opposed to the white race. He thinks he must hold the offices and govern. In corroboration of my position, I have only to refer to the fact tiiat only a iew days ago, a delegation of the best, educated negroes of the South waited upon President lioosu velt to solicit his aid iu behalf cf the measures pending in Congress to de feat the purposes of the amended Constitutions of several of the South ern States, which restrict the suffrage of the negro.. This negro eominiti.ee also went before the committee of Congress which has these measures in charge. The education of these prominent negroes does not teacii the in that the only hope of good government, peace aud prosperity for both races iu the Southern Stales depends upon a restricted suffrage for their race for a great number of years. Again, the conferring upon the negro the privileges of education irresistibly hastens the social equality of the races, leads to misceginatioii, confusion and destruction of society, with untold evils which every good citizen must deplore. There is in the heart of a vast majority of the negro race an over meaning desire for social equality. Possibly this is natural, but the preservation of the civilization of tho South demands that it be resisted to the bitter end. There is a place in our industrial condition for the negro and he is valuable in his place, but that place is not in the learned profession, among the elite of Society, or as a social companion. Educated, he is less adapted for the place where his services are most demanded and most valuable in our economic system, and we do him great wrong to unlit him by education, to become u valu able citizen.
