Dr. Charles W. Dabaey, president of
the Ualmflty of Ténneasce, a xwan who
is prominently conueeted with the South-
om Educntional Assoelation, heartily
agrees with Dr. Roffeer in (hls viow, nnd
50 commnitted Wimselt ia an interview
publizshed in yesterday's Timos.
. Again, Dr. Roffaer and Dr. Dabney nro
both sgrecd that {he State wobld-maks

be most huriful to the enure of populir
educatien I she should comumit herssif
10 the proposition that education is a
bad thing for the black man. Dr. Dab-
ney also well says. that the ordinanmce
adopted by the Virginia Convention ought
to be “above susplclon™ If ths Constle
tutdonnl Convention proposes to diserfm-
inate amhxst the diack man and 1o give
Bim for the education of his chitdren only
®0 much money as he pays Into tbe achoo)
