We had enough OF internal quar-.
antlne last summer. Il was an intoler.
able, insufferable nuisance and availed
nothing. From the gulf, even to
Hickman and Columbus and Cairo,
the spores or germs Of the plague pur-
sued their unobstructed" wsy.
Even so, in former years when this
plague started east from Vera Cruz,
sklrting the coast Of the gulf and
dying in SAVANNAH, it was never ar
rested in its progress by internal quar-
sntine.
The bill before Congress provides
for the maintenance OF three American
medical experts on the island of Cubs,
charged with the duty of supervising
the departure Of vessels from the ports

pieal service already familiar with the
workings Of the yellow fever epidemics.
The Isham G. Harris bill provided for

Objectionable feature, in Senator HRr-
ris's view, Is the provision rsquir-
ing cooperation of the national board
with the local quarantine anshor-
tiles. He thinks the former should
have supreme Jurisdiction, and that
the latter should cooperate with the
national authorities IN the general
plan OF excluding disease, rcserving
only the right to work out their logical
regulations inside of and as auxihary

improved farms of whites who wish to
escape the social African cyclone about
to sweep over the domain of the
Wichita road.
We can see, therefore, much to APP
prove In the good sense and goodness
OF heart OF Boston. 1t were infinitely
wiser, II race segregation must be per-
: fected, and it should Ee, that these
N&pless negroes be given land IN the
South than in the North. The only
difhctalty to obstruct the success of the
schenes of these earnest, honest, gen.
srous Boston people is the hostility of
white people who would not be social
~ Africanizsd. The laws of the coun-
try cannot recognize their grievances
or misfortunes and if the railroad COM
pspy have sold and Boston bought the
land, the constitutional amendments
and laws OF universal equality of right
and justice accomplish the rest, and
those who do not approve the changed
aspect OF g delightful district of Texas
must sell and migrate. Before, they
could not sell; now, sales will be profit
able. 1t may be proper to add, that
the National Farmers Association of
Boston was organized, as the STATES
NAN noticed at the time, some months
ago. The association engaged, as was
stated in the Boston papers, sixty-five
alternate sections of land for which
she railroad company was to be paid
et.b0 per acre. AS soon as the rail-
roads land is secured, the alternate
school sections are to be bought from
the State, and thus the unity and
solidity of the African paradise is to be
perfected, thanks to the schemes of
this Boston speculative company and
20 the Legislature that has authorized
the sale of school and university lands.

GREAT NEGRO COLONY FOR

IL practical and sensible scheme.
Negroes, in a distinct community,

add to the prosperity of Texas. If
they fail, they are only harmless and
seryiceable while undergoing the sure
process OF extinction. 1t is the fate
of the weaker of competing diverse
races brought in direct contact and
competition with one another. But
supposing the Boston optimists wiser
