Y., April 19tn, has these few words': "Governor Roosevelt today stoned tho bill to secure equal rights to negro children in the mihlin ii,.imnlHnml nhnHslnnir separate schools." We can stand. this if the New Yorkers can. It is their affair and not ours, but we ........ r.- !.. I Southern people of that state ' who miret suHer by this so cial legislation. Should Mr. . Roosevelt come South he should be left to the same kind of companionship he has forced upon the people of New i.ork. rsorth Carolina Bap; tist. I porary as to me treatment! Roosevelt deserves and should receive, if he ever comes this! wayr ' We are sorry not only for the good, .true Southern people there, but also for all tho poor white people who! will be forced to attend school! with negroes or forced out of the schools. . .' Such legislation is an out - Miro unon both races and can do harm and only harm. Wei n sr would sentence to social os - tracism at the South not only Roosevelt but every member of the New York legislature of these, a young man com who voted for the measure. I paratively speaking, who do- AYCOCiC'S GREAT SPEECH. -In Mr. Aycock's speech. which is not tire production of a par y man, and which for its excellence, its force, its candor, its line spirit, and its power will survive in North Carolina as an historic state inent of the popular mind in this period of peculiar tran sition,1 is clearly indicated what he thinks ought to be the course pursued with re spect to the negro and his rea sons therefor.- He bluntly de nies that the negro is fitted to vote, since voting is sover eignty, is rulership, aad he does not put this on -the ground of intellect but of con science and heredity. One can not' read what he: says without conferring hat he seems to be speaking in clear sentences what ' the 1 whole country has known, tfut we have this to say at the same -r-and tyr. Aycock ill gree it is wrong to abuse the ne gro. He did not confer suf frage 'Upon 'himself; and the charge against hifn is not that he votes a certain ticket and is ambitious for office this is only natural; but the charge against him is that he votes when he i3not fit. And yet some are fit. There are some sound-minded, true-hearted colored jhen, though their race is dark of mind and weak of conscience, take them all ran man. luese lew are men who have been more than taught to read and write. Is it not so? These few are men who have been1 patiently edit cated in Christian schools. This is the point we are driv ing at that the condition of the negro confronts the South with a- tremendous responsN bility. We must not simply strive to govern him; we must endeavor to fit him for the full estate of manhood. If he lacks moral fibre, Christiani tynot the State- must weave it into him. The State may teach him to read the Constitution, but Heaven it self must through its sons and daughters on earth equip his heart into fitness. Bibli cal Recorder. The Truth-Index has all the time stood exactly where the Recorder says our candi date for governor stands. It is no new thing with the edi tor of the Trutu-Index. He has alwas occupied that posi tion, and, when editor of TJie Duplin Record in the seven i ties and afterwards of the Clinton Caucasian, he advan ced the same views, he does now. The 14th and 15th" Amendments to the Federal Constitution ought to be re pealed. We agree with the Recorder i" the idea that the negroe'a education sliould be along Christian lines. He needs moral and religious training ore than anything else. His learning to read theConstitu- tion may qualify him for suf frago under the Amendment to ourState Constitution; but it will make him no better vntir imli:4 lii rf'ci'ivi'-i tlii moral qualifications of which tho Recorder speaks. TASTE FOB ANTIQUITIES. -Our friend, the Salisbury Truth-Index, has received the Mebane controversy. It has a taste for antiquities. Wn nlpnd rmilfv t mir neighborWsoft' impeachment. We confess that we have a fondness for all good old men, good old ways and, cood old things. - These enable us to I measure tolerably accurately I the smart young man, his new ways, and many untried things.

It has been only a little while since we heard one clared that Gen. T. F. Toon will not do at all for Super intendent of Public Instruc tion because, he has attained the wonderfully old age of sixty. The same, youth is al ways prating about : the wis dom of the present and dis paraging that of the past. He is representative of a class with whose self confident wis dom; but self evident folly most peopleof common sense (the most-uncommon common commodity known) both those educated in the schools antt those uneducated there, but educated by observation and experience, are disgust ed. - ' . " : . .- But while we accept, admire and reverence all the bid that is true, we repudiate all tLrtlt is false; and, while we reject all the new that is false, we gladly welcome all that is true. And, while we admire, love, and reverence the fathersand all. that they did which was true and no ble, we joyfully welcome the young and all true improve ments and- ennobling and helpful methods which they bring. But our respected contem porary, having classed us with those who have a taste for an tiquities, because we wrote an article to commend Gen. Toon, our candidate for Sup erintendent of Public Instruc tion and to justify his selec tion over Superintendent Me bane, incidentally discussing the question, unconsciously and unexpectedly to atself classed us with its highest model in newspaperdom.the Charlotte Observer, Tvhich discusses the questions about Superintendent Mebane in an elaborate article in its yes terday's issue. No doubt, our friend, the Telegram will now join the procession of those who have "a taste for antiquities." Current Comment. , 'JJxit Quay!" writes an editor as a head for a leader. Wait a wee!
