Jim GROW CAR LAW.
SOME COMPLICATIONS THAT MAY
GET INTO COURT.
The Baltimore Sun says

The Baltimore Sun says:
Steamboat companies that are In the
habit of doing business between Bal
timore and Virginia ports are greatly
embarrassed over the workings of the
Jim Grow" law which prevails in the
old Commonwealth.
The Virginia law, rs is we'll known,
provides separate compartments for
white and colored persons in all coz
veyances used ror the transportation
or both races. The railroad compa-
MES have complied with the law it
is understood that the whites should
the colored citizens and that the COL
ored section of the population should
have just as good accommodations hs
the whites have. There was TO be no
discrimination between the sexes
All arrangements have been made by
the railroads to fulfill these conditions.
Companies operating through the State
of Virginia have taken the trouble 40
alter their cars. marking the sections
of them White" and the other sec
ton "Colored." Thus each race occu-
pies the same car, and each, naturally,
gets the same kind or service out of
the railroad company. Once in
While, IL special train be run, many
door reading white Other cars
show no riacard at all. Colored per-
sons may enter cars not marked
White" if they want to. and so may
white persons. but no colored person
may enter n car that is marked
'White.'
This arrangement quite covers all the.
requirements of the INV. The cars
marked white" and those not so
marked are exactly the same as far as
cars go. One side gets just as good SER
vice as the other side gets The cars
are the same and they are each attach
ed to IL train drawn by the same loco
motive. There is no complaint coming
TO carbohydrates the cOlored people
grow Intrusive and insist upon riding in
the same car with the white folk They
| cannot do this. and if they Insist upon
doing 1t they are transgressing the
Law.
But as to the steamboats,. There
comes the rub. 1t is one thing to pro-
| vide equal accommodations for each
race upon railroad train and quite an
other thing to provide "~ual accommo-
dations upon steamboat. The rail
road train can be divided up, as has
been shown. but this is not always pos
sible in steamboat. Steamboats, are
not built that way.
To illustrate the thing. an arrest was
made a few days ago of Capt. ID. NJ.
Davis. of II Weems Line boat operating
on the Rappahannock river. He was
charged with not carrying out the pro-
visions of the Virginia law. which law
practically says that the same provis-
ions must be made for passengers of
both races. Capt. Davis could not
imagine how he was TO comply with
the law without putting his boat in
the dry-dock and making extensive re-
pairs. So he was indicted.
| Other CAPTAINS have been indicted.
too, and very interesting point Is sure
to come UP when these cases appear
before court of law for settlement.
