Some Things You Want to Know Liberia. Great interest will be manifested In the | fortheoming report to congress of the com. mission appointed to inquire Into the af- | fairs of the littie negro republic of Liberia. | situated on the west coast of Afrca. Started s & haven of refuge for the negroes found on the captured slave-trading vessels in |the days of James Monroe, It flourished under a sort of tacit protectorate of the | United Stated until 1847, when it was recog- | nized formally as a republic. Since then it | b eked out an existence as a nation, all the while beset with trials within and trib- ulations from without When the English colony of Sierra Leons on the one Bide, and the Freneh Ivory Coast colony on the other. Liberia's ina- | bliity to maintain the mastery ‘over its 'n-uvo tribes has been made the excuse for mueh territorial aggrandizement on the |part of England and France. Added to | this has been its Inabllity to collect taxes from the native trfbes within its dominion. There also has been trouble about the fi- nances of the country. English firms loaned Liberia $500,00 at one time, and a similar amount at a more recent date. The latter, however, was loaned upon the ex- press condition that English officers should have charge of the Liberian custom house. Later England Insisted upon having her officers command the Liberian troope. France also made many demands upon the. little republic taking the position that all of its territory which it could not ef- fectivqy control was falrly subject to French jurlsdiction. Owing to this condl- tion of affairs Liberla concluded that its further existence as & nation was in jeop- ardy, and that its salvation depended upon an 8. O. 8. call to America for aid | Tt sent a commission to the United States to enllst this government's ald. It | asked that Uncle Sam go on its bond, so to speak, and guarantee its territorial and political Integrity. Secretary Root immed- fately put his diplomatic foot on such a request, but wrote a letter to the president asking him to urge the appointment by congress of a commission to Investigate | Liberta’s troubles. The president did so, and funds were voted for the expenses of this inquiry. A first-hand Investigation was made, and the report thereon is now in preparation. The situation In which Liberta finds itself is pecullar in many ways. It Is the only negro republic in the world. Its territory equals In extent that of Pennsylvania. Only the small pofton fronting on the sea- board has had the slightest development, the remainder being an untamed troplea! Jungle, peopled by savage and semi-savage tribes who refuse to be taxed or in any other way to acknowledge the yoke of Liberla. These tribes consist of about 1500000 people, while civilised Liberia boasts of only 40,000 inhabitants. While it might be made a veritable Kden of plenty, no part of this little republic is developed to even a small percentage of its possibllities. Nearly every tropical tree |ana plant that grows will thrive on | Liberian sofl. Coffee, rice, fotton, bananas, pineapples, oranges and other staple troplcal and semi-tropical crops grow luxuriagtly where properly cared for. But the natives have little taste for agriculture amd the civilized element has less, But far worse for Liberia’s industrial outlook than the disposition of its people to shirk work, 18 the law declaring that no white man can own property. The re- sult has been that the white man's capital has not been forthcoming for the develop- ment of the latent resources of the country. Instead of rallroads, saw mills and. other wealth-producing enterprises, Liberia has blazed trafls and their usual accompani- ments. Time after time the intelligont ele- ment In the government has attempted to repeal this law, but never with success. If the civillzed population has a Prejudice. gainst the whites, it Is as nothing com- pared with their prejudice against the native tribes. These are referred to as “those stinking bushmen” and other no less elegant terms. The natives return this contempt with compound Interest. With the native tribes resisting the right of the government to tax them, and the civillzed Liberlans accumulating little property upon which assessments can be made, Liberia takes recourse to import and export taxes for the support of the gov- ernment. This amounts to from 12 to 24 per cent, depending upon the commodity taxed. The export tax has a tendency to stifle whaf little inclination toward agri- culture there is in the people. Opinions differ as to the presept status of the clvilized population of Liberta. Some writers declare that they are progressive and show a high state of public morals, On thy other hand, such authorities Bishop Hartzell, head of the Methodist church {1 Africa, and Miss Mahoney, a sulssionary who iims spent years among them, declares that the civilized Liberian is not what he once was. Bishop Hartzell says that polygamy is being preaehed and | ‘housahold affairs, practiced and that licentiousness s on the increase. There once Sabbath observance s as righl as in the sternest of New England towns, a wide open day Is the order now. Miss Mahoney declares that once m hundred el ized men of Liberia could meet and defeat 1,00 bushmen in a Jungle fight, but that now odds are about even. Bhe says that onee the Liberians could build as good boats as were to be hought from England or Germany, but that now few competent boat bullders are to be found With the contempt the natives feel for the civilized element, it little wonder that the tribes are not enthusiastic in embracing the Christlan religion. On the other hand, Moslemism appeals to them, as it does not carry with it such a strict code of morals. Many of the tribes are falling in with Mohammedagism, and this portion of Africa will become a spirit- ual battleground between the Cross'and the Crescent. One advantage of the missionary is that the ambition of the natives to learn | to read and write brings their children into | the mission school and thus under Chris- tian Influence. Among the dozen or more native tribes the Kroos are perhaps the best known. They are the most muscular of all African tribes. Nor generations they have served as eallors on the vessels engaged In the | African coast trade and enjoy the reputa- | tion of always possessing a steady nerve and a cool head. They are passionately fond of freedom and while slave trading | was going on In Africa they successfully | resisted all attempts to take them. When an individual was captured, he invariably | took his life rather than go into servitude, consequently the Kroos soon were found to be unprofitablo as slaves. They have a sort of hereditary chief, who conducts their | business with other tribes and the Liberian government. He is a sort of minister of foreign relations. The actual government | of the tribe is In the hands of the elders, whose badge of office is an iron ring worn about the leg. They meet and make the laws governing the tribe, and act as judges in the few cases that cannot be settled by the individuals themselves, Another tribal officer is the president, who Keeps the symbols and seals of the guvernment and uses them In accordance with established regulations. ife also con- ducts & sort of twentieth century edition of the anclent city of refuge. Any tribesman accused of & crime may fiee to his house for protection, and hls security is assured untll he has been proved guilty. Land is held by the tribe as & whole, but is par- celed out to actual tlllers to be held by them so long as cultivation continues. Once this ceases the tract reverts to the government. One who lands at Monrovia, the capital of Liber on a gala occasion may see all sorts and conditions of negroes from the Breechcloth bushman to the polished uni- versity graduate. Some will be dressed a la mode, others may have a discarded silk hat and hickory cotton shirt, and still oth- ers a threadbare Prince Albert coat and bare legs. When the natives come to town they usually bring.enough palm oll and other commodities to pay the expenses of the trip. Each. tribe has its own peculiar dialect and customs, but one thing that is common to al Is the welcome extended to -the periodical visitation ,, of, {he . driver ant. Tropical weather ang tropical habits are nat_ conduclye to extreme - cleanliness . in andy nearly all Huts which constitute-the homes of the poorar classes of Liberia ibecome infested with vermin. Perfodically the driver ants set out on blg foraging expeditions, great hordes of them visiting every place that promises a juley bug or other toothsome inmect.

Ware Discuss Problems of Munici- pal Reform, Municipal government reform in general and the commission form of government In particular were the subjects discussed | last night at & meeting of the First Pre byterlan Men's club, under the presidency lot Dr. W. F. Milroy. | €. F. Harrison, who opened the consid- eration of the subjects, his theme being “Municipal Government," said it was ad- mitted on all sides that the probl of today was the problem of the citles, If It cannot be solved “he added” in this country, then democratic government falls.”" The last census, he said, showed that one-third of the people of the country lived in cities of over 8,000 People were changing the simple ‘life of the country for the complex life of the cities and con- sequently American democracy was on its trial In the cities. Remarking that only a few of the cities of the country had conferred upon them the privilege of formulating thelr own form of government, Mr. Harrison ex- claimed, “Is it not agomalous that a city llke Omaha cannot determine how mueh it will spend on public utilities, such bullding sewers, buying the water work or bullding & condult—it scems anomalous that these matters must be decided at Lincoln by the whole state legislature and run fnto the cauldron of polities. “In my judgment,” sald Mr. Harrisou, dlecussing how reform could be effected, “the evil does not lie In the form of goy- ernment, but in the personnel of the body elocted to earry out the administration of the affairs of & city; the unwillingness of good men to take up, the duties lmposed by municipal government." himself in favomof the Iowa plan as ex- emplified at Des Moines, MISS FRANCES BUTTERFIELD TEACHER FORTY YEARS DEAD Former Principal of Dupunt School Expires, Following Stroke ot Paralys Miss Frances Butterfleid, for forty years a teacher in Omaha, died &t her rooms at the Strehlow on North Eixteenth street last night at 10 o'clock.

The Church and Divoree, SOUTH OMAHA, March 13.—To the Edj- tor of The Bee: Asking your patience, I | file an answer to a letter published today from Xenls Fairchild. 1 thank her for the unexpected compliment when she says that “I write as If 1 had just had a talk with the parish priest.” However, such wi not the o Any 10-year-old child of the church would have addressed her with practically the same arguments. Such Is the simplicity and unity of the church's teaching. Your correspondent evidently has little regard for Henry VIIL, from some stand- points, as 1 have from all. Decent public opinion has long since consigned him, and Katherine Parr, et al. to that low stratum of moral degradation of which they happen to be an historical example. 1 merely cited Henry VIII. as the patron saint of the “Incompatibles,” and modern soclety is most Interested in asking why so many now-a-days emulate his example. The an- swer seems to be—because they may. It is | vert exsy to discover incompatibility as an excuse, when there is an “affinity’” be- yond the open door of the divorce court. Very easy for the man of wealth to dis- cover how very contrary and Incompati- ble_the faded wife of his youth has be. come, In contrast to the blooming beauty who has usurped the plgee formerly held by her who tolled and assisted him on his road to affluence. Would he be so careful toMoster the in- compatibility if he knew that beyond the court of divorce there wi no hope of marriage with the new affinity? Your correspondent’s charge that mem- bers “of the church generally do not sbey absurd to require an answer. Why, do the yellow journals add as a thrilling headline —*and they are Catholics,” whenever, in extremely rare cases, any so-calied Catho- lics ralse a Pittsburg smudge. It was be that public opinion is unanimous in looking for something better in the lives of the adherents of the church. Else, why the thriller? True, some nominal Catholics, sated to the_point of both sensual and spiritual intoxication with wealth and the worldly | pleasures wealth can buy-—rebel against surely, Automobiles are more profilic of affin- ities than wheelbarrows. The court ree- ords of legal separation are a better refutation of your ocrrespondents’ asser- | tions than any words ofmine. She says she is not unfamiliar with the church's interior, if 8o, she must refer to its physical frterfor. In such knowledge the janitor supasses either of us. I refer to the spiritual Interior—its teachings and doctrines. As 1 prefer to address arguments where 1 perceive symptoms of thought, not hy- sterla, in response, I will be pleased to call this correspondence a closed incident, by again charitably suggesting a study | of the church's attitude on social questions before attacking It.
