THE NINNEScAH BAPTIST
GODDARD. April :, 1885

GODDARD. April :, 1883.
To the Editor of the Eagle
About ten DAYS ago | started in
company with w. w Dormsn TO at
tend the quarterly institute of the
Minnesota Baptist association, TO be
held with the Eden church in Sumner
county. We started about II O'Clock.
and drove in southwesterly direction
until we had crossed the Ninnescah.
We saw but very little good wheat,
and that was in sod ground and corn
stalks. Farmers were busy with their
oat planting, aud seemed TO think that
winter was done for good.
We arrived ct the church about half
mast four in the afternoon, about
twenty-,hree miles from our starting
point. We arrived in time to help
sweep, and place the chairs in place

so largely to the recent growth in circulation
is continued with the story of the capture ot
New Orleans, Mr.. Cable drawing a vivid
picture of the city before the event and Ad
miral Porter describing the passage of the

interest to the paper. Theodore Roose-
welt contributes valuable article
upon s'Phases of State Legislation" j" in which
he summarizes the conclusions which hc
reached in his three years experience at Al

legislative humor of the unconscious sort.
Henry w. Grady, of the Atlanta (Ga1 Con

in the same magazine upon "The Freedman
Case in Equity,' and discusses the questions
involved with an earEestness and force which
will command universal attention. Mr..
Howell's story steadily grows in Interest.

usually valuable and interesting.

A NOTABLE DEoISION.

A NOTABLE DECISION.
The Supreme court of Maryland has just
rendered decision which admits colored
man to the practice of law in that State. AS
this is the first colored man so treated the
decision is of great interest.
The legislature of Maryland passed an act
in 1876 excluding eolored persons from the
bar, and this law was declared by the court
of appeals of Maryland to be not repugnant
to tle fourteenth amendment of the national
constitution. But since that decision the
Supreme court of the United States has de-
cided in West Virginia case that colored
men cannot be excluded from the jury on
account of their race or color. The Mary
land Supreme court bases its decision upon
this action, and disregards the action of the
Maryland court of appeals. The opinion
views the West Virginia case and quotes as
the rule of construction of the Fourteenth
amendment the following: "The words of
the amendment, it is true, are prohibitory,
but they contain necessary implication of
positive immunity, or right, most valuable
to the colored race-the right to exemption
from unfriendly legislation against them
distinctly as colored-the exemption from
legal determinations, implying inferiority in
civil society, lessening the security of their
enjoymentsof the rights which others enjoy,
and Determinations which are steps towards
reducing them to the condition of a subject
race" The opinion quotes also from the
opinion of Justice Field in another case: ''It
cannot be that State nay limit to q speci
fed number of its people the right to prac-
tise law, the right to practise medicine, the
right to preach the gospel, the right to till
the soil, or to pursue particular business or
trades and thus parcel out to different par
ties the various vocations and callings of
life.'
After these statements the Maryland court
pays attention to provision of the State
constitution that the State judges s'shall be
selected from those who have been admitted
to practice law in this State" The court
held that the consequence followed relentless
ly that, if the West Virginia case sustained
the eligibility of colored man juror, it
must be held to sustain his eligibility as a
judge. It was then met with the alternative
of holding either that the act of 1875, exclud
ing colored mon from the bar, was unconsti-
tutional and void, or the provision of
the Maryland constitution, requiring the
judges to be selected from the bar, was over
drawn by the fourteenth amendment 1t
took the latter view.
The world moves and Maryland must move
with it. This decision is a notable step tow
ard full equality for the negro. There is
demand that the State law which has been
overruled by this decision be repealed at the
next session of the legislature. This will |
probably be done.
