Please answer in to-morrow's paper the
following
In mile race track is the distance meas
ured around the outside or the inside line, or
in the centre Of the circumference"
Where can the expression spare the rod

centre line of the circumference, from which
line distance of three feet on each side is
usually measured. In the case of mile track.
this would make the centre line mile. the
outside edge Of the circumference a little
more and the inside edge little less than a
mile.

RECENT events. particularly the New Or
leans Malta affair, have caused our immigrant
authorities to be very careful. On Friday
twenty eight undesirable Russian immigrants
were refused permission to land at Boston,
and on the same day thrty-one pauper immi-
grants were sent back to Europe from New
York. This looks as if there was enough law
in the land TO prevent much Of the abuse
which has characterized our immigration and
led to so much trouble. if it were only en-
forced. Now that there is evident intention
to see that the laws against undesirable immi-
grants are observed. steamship companies will
find it decidedly TO their advantage to exer-
else due circumspection before they receive
the scum of Europe. who seek TO be dumped
upon the United States.

The steamship men are after that subsidy
voted by the billion-dollar Congress. 1t is
stated that no less than forty-two routes are
laid down upon and for which postal subsidy
may be secured. The Philadelphia Record

all of these lines will be established; but even

The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1891-01-24

Atlanta, Ga, is having q dose o.
the race problem. The city is ill.
ing up with ignorant negroes from
the west, who have been roped into
. colonization in Africa scheme,
and their promises of happiness in
the happy land have had such an
effect upon Atlanta negroes that it
is almost impossible to secure
servants of any kind. The scheme
of the self-styled emigration agents
is to promise passage from Savan-
nah to Africa for 81 OF. They
promise each single man Ten acres
of land, each married man twenty
Eve acres and 500 in money, this
to come from the United States
government.
A few days ago Atlanta negroes
sent $500 to the headquarters of
the supposed company at WASH
ington. Tickets reading From
Savannah to Africa" were given in
return, but now the agents an
nounce that the ships are not ready,
and the passengers must wait. The
result is that Atlanta has probably
1000 strange negroes to support
and every train from the west
brings accessions to their number.
All efforts to show them that they
are being defrauded are unavailing.
