largely racial characteristics have int@ the history of every nation that ro is bound to EYES ON AFRICA Meeting of the American Coloniza- tion Society. TIGHTING UP THE DARK CONTINENT nd isolated individualism or ignorance, and must end in disappointment. “Of late we have heard much about civil sie without social equality; but the vil equality of two distinct races, counted by millions, in the same country without actual or possible social equality, if it ever come, will be an anomaly having no prece- dent in all history, and there is eaten evidence on every hand that one generation of experiment in this country has produced results far from being.satisfactory to eith- er race. Civil equality in its full reality must have fts foundations far deeper than legal phrases in constitutions and statutes; it rests securely only in the hearts and public sentiment of a homogeneous people. Possibilities for the Negro. “In Liberia, with all its favorable oppor- tunities and great possibilities, handicapped by no other dominant race, the negro has @ possibility to demonstrate to the world that he has the capacity for that ‘human development which has usually come from voluntary energy, from self-evolved organ- izations of higher and higher efficiency, from conditions which are principaily the handiwork of man himself,’ and which has made the peoples and governments of the world what they are today. Can a.wiser thing be done by the foremost of the race than to make the most of this possibility? ‘The republic of Liberia is now the only portion of Africa which the negro can call his own, where he stands erect and bows to no other race as master. It is trie that it is still little and weak, but in ita location, climate, soil and natural produc- tions, it is conceded by all intelligent ob- servers and writers to be the most eligible part of the whole west coast of Africa, and there is unlimited room for enlarging its borders as fast as its people and govern- ment prove themselves worthy to occupy, develog and rule over more territory. Without any foreign governmental protec- tion or assistance, it has for a period of forty-nine years maintained an independent government; which, on terms of equality, has been fully recognized and dealt with by the other members of the family of nations, and in all future wisely directed efforts which the negro may make to build up a great, enlightened, progressive, Christian nationality there in Africa, he will have the hearty sympathy and support of other races and nations.’ The report and also the report of Mr. Reginald Fendall, the treasurer, were re- ceived with applause and unanimously adopted, and a recess was then taken in order to permit the society to meet.

Secretary Wilson's Interesting An- nual Report. THE OFFICERS ELECTED ‘The American Colonization Society is in }nnual session this afternoon in the Coloni- _. Jation building, 450 Pennsylvania avenue ~ porthwest. The meeting was preceded by a Ingeting of the board of directors, which ‘as called to order promptly at noon by the resident, Bishop Henry C.

Credentials—Mr. Fendall, Dr. Sampson and Mr. Hall. A Review of the Work. The annual report of the operations of the society was submitted by the secretary, Mr. J. Ormond Wilson, and was an in- teresting exhibit. According to it, the so- ciety has assisted fcur emigrants to Libe- Tia during the past year, and has definite information of 217 emigrents who have gone from this country to Liberia during the past year and wholly paid their own way. Others have probably gone who have not been noticed. Seventy-four years ago the American Col- onization Society sent out its first party of colonists. Each year since it has sent out emigrants to Liberia. Those reported for the past year make a total of 16,428, ex- clusive of 5,722 recaptured Africans, which the society enabled the government of the United States to settle in Liberia, or a total of 22,150 persons whom it has as- sisted in finding homes in Liberia. “The future of Liberia,” says the report, ‘depends, first, upon the education which she gives to her youth, and, second, upon the character of the immigrants which she receives, largely from the United States. This society is profoundly interested in oth, and ig endeavoring to aid along both lines. * * “The more intelligent class of negroes now emigrating from this country to Liberia, and largely paying their own way, have = thirty years of freedom, with all the neficent training and experience in self- reliance and necessitated industry which these years have brought to them; they are better qualified for the settlement of a new country than were a large majority of those who at an earlier day went out di- rect from an environment of slavery, and we may reasonably expect this improve- ment in the character of emigrants to be continued in the future. “England, France, Germany, Portugal, Italy and Spain are engaged in a fierce scramble for the last square foot of Africa, not so much for the sake of enlarged do- main and increased political power as for the unmeasured wealth which all parts of that great continent holds out to them. While in the not distant future this will consist largely in its immense forests of the most useful and valuable woods, just now the rapid increase in the output of gold is especially attracting the attention of the world. * * African Progress. “The steamboats now plying on the great ——_—_ Hotel Arrivals.

Already more than 6,000 miles of railway are open. The Egyptian line, running up the Nile toward the south as far as Nubia, and the South African Imes, running toward the north beyond Pretoria, are destined to meet and be united, and it may safely be predicted that within the next generation the Amer- ican tourist will be able to take his palatial car at Alexandria, in Egypt, in the north temperate zone, be carried up the Nile to its source, among the great lakes of the central plateau, by the grand Victoria falls of the Zambesi; Johannesburg, hav- ing the largest and richest gold mines in the world; Kimberly, with its matchless diamond fields, and, after a delightful ten days’ journey of more than five thousand miles through the entire length and very heart of the old continent of Africa, be landed at Cape Town, in the south tem- perate zone. “Seventy-nine years have come and gone since a little company of fifty patriots and philanthropists met in this capital city and erganized the American Colonization So- ciety. The simple clavse of their charter, ‘the colonization, with their own consent, in Africa, of the free people of color resid- ing in the United States,” incluaea a four- fold purpose: First, to do away with slav- ery in the United States; second, to aid in putting an end to the foreign slave trade; third, to establish a place of refuge for slaves recaptured on the high seas or else- where, after the foreign slave trade had been declared piracy, and fourth, to es- tablish an independent negro nationality in Africa, which, in the language of the con- stitution of Liberia, should ‘provide a home for the dispersed and oppressed children of Africa, and regenerate and en- lighten that benighted continent.’ “The first three of these grand pecnones Were already realized when slavery in —— States was abolished, and it were easy task to show the important part which t the society had in the accomplish- ment of each. Liberia. “The execution of the fourth purpose ‘Was well commenced in the establishment of the independent republic of Liberia, which still hokis out a promise of the ulti- mate achievement of the beneficent purpose of its founders, and calls for the services of this society ta its behalf. In response to this call the society continues its labors. It Cage to strengthen Liberia especial- ly_by aiding its educational work, and by officiating as a bureau of Coe prema for the benefit of Liberia and of Regroes in the United States,” who, not con- tented with their present condition and future prospects, desire to emigrate to that country. “The society recognizes the facts of race and the great part in the order of Provi- dence which they have played in a evolu- tien of nations and the progress of civiliza- tion, ‘and {t believes that It ean ao good service to the th this ——.__ Speculating on Margins. Senator Mushbach of Alexandria has in- troduced in the Virginia senate a bill mak- ing it unlawful to keep an office for specu- Jation on margins. The bill proposes to make it unlawful for any corporation, as- sociation, copartnership or person to keep a bucket shop or other place wherein is conducted or permitted the pretended buy- ing or selling of bonds, shares or stocks of any corporation, petroleum, cotton or any other product whatsoever, either on mar- gins or otherwise, without intention of re- ceiving and paying for such property or offering to buy the same. ‘The penalty for the first violation of the law is a fine of-not less than $500 nor more than $1,000. The second offense is* made punishable by imprisonment in addition to the fine named. Any person displaying quo- tations of prices of any such ret oe is made an accessory and liable to the same punishment as the principal. —_+o-+___ Right Information for Dyspeptics.
