Excerpt from Problems of the Present South: A Discussion of Certain of the Educational, Industrial, and Political Issues in the Southern States
The chapters just named, as well as those here published, have been written as already suggested from within the life. And thought of the South. They assume, however, no representative finality. They are not intended as an authoritative interpre tation of Southern opinion. Their essential conclu sions will be rejected by some forces within the South and accepted by others. Their service - if they are to prove of service at all will be found, however, not in the immediate evidences of agreement or dis agreement, but in such contributions as they may offer toward that slowly forming, collective verdict, in reference to Southern issues, in which the public Opinion of our whole country, North and South, will gain at length its rational and articulate expression. Popular judgments, operative as living social forces upon a large and inclusive scale, act and react upon the national character. To contribute, however in adequately or imperfectly, to their formation is a legitimate and honorable interest.
