The New South

CHAPTER IX
74/83

T.M.Young, an English labor leader, in _The American Cotton Industry_ (1903), brings a fresh point of view.
The files of the _Manufacturer's Record_ (Baltimore) are indispensable to a student of the economic progress of the South.
THE NEGRO QUESTION The number of books, pamphlets, and special articles upon this subject, written by Northerners, Southerners, negroes, and even foreigners, is enormous.

These publications range from displays of hysterical emotionalism to statistical studies, but no one book can treat fully all phases of so complex a question.

Bibliographies have been prepared by W.E.B.Du Bois, A.P.C.Griffin, and others.

W.L.Fleming has appended a useful list of titles to _Reconstruction of the Seceded States (1905)_.
F.L.Hoffman, a professional statistician of German birth, in _Race Traits and Tendencies of the American Negro (1896)_, has collected much valuable material but all his conclusions cannot be accepted without question.

Special _Bulletins_ on the negro are published by the United States Census Bureau, of which the issues for 1904 and 1915 should especially be consulted.
