XMAS.

Christmas with all it's amuse-
ments and facination for the
young will have come and gone
before our next issue. Christmas
is conceded the chief of all festi-
val days among the civilized peo-
pie, for hundreds of churches,
thousands of choirs and millions
of people join in singing the
grand Christmas choral, while
young ladies and gentlemen
smile at their beautiful presents
and the little children enjoy their
Christmas toys and out door frolic
Yet while it is the hope of each
christian that all, the rich and
poor, high and low may be made
happy by token of remember
ance and a cheerful word from a
sympathetic and kind heart. 1t
is expected that each year the
world will grow better, and chris
tan nations may congratulate
themselves for the good that the
christian civilization has done.
It is true that we may have done
more. In certain parts of this
globe the civilized countries are
at war with less civilized nations
and even in our own country
peace and brother1y love does not
exist as it should. 1t is true we
have many wrongs to wright,
many evils to remedy, but as this
is the first Christmas festival to
celebrate in the twentieth century
let at least us American people,
as we gather around the festival
table, let us give a VOW that we,
each one of us, will do more for
equality of all races and humanity
that lynching and anarchy must
cease in this republic; that man
hood, merit, character and homes
ty shall be the passport to true
Americanism. The next Christ
mas we all can look to the All
wise power and say that we
recognize universally the father
hood of God and the brotherhood
Of man.

German Defends His Law.

NEW YORK, April L.-Ex-Senator Arthur
p. German. of Maryland. in an interview
regarding the recent political legislation
enacted at Annapolis, which appears in a
special from Washington. says:
IF there are many illiterates in Mary
land VINO Will be affected by the passage
of the present law the blame lies with
themselves. We nave had the most perfect
system of public schools for thirty years
OF any state south of Pennsylvania. Since
1870 the colored population have had ample
opportunity TO learn to read and write, by
means of the schools furnished by the
white taxpayers of Maryland. And If after
these years of honest effort on the part of
the white people i'm supporting these
schools there are. as is asserted, 5000 of
these who cannot read or write the fault
can be attributed only 10 their lack of de-
sire TO obtain knowledge. If they prefer
TO remain in ignorance there is no way 10
compel them TO learn, unless the incentive
TO vote may hereafter encourage them to
attend the schools"
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1901-04-02

Ex-senator Germans plausible defense
of the Maryland DISTINGUISHING law does
not consist. In one breath he says that
if there are $4,000 adult negroes in the State
who cannot read or write it is their own
fault, as "since 1870 the colored population
has had ample opportunity to learn to read
and write. by means of the schools fur
nished by the white taxpayers of Mary
land" In the next breath he says the
Maryland people would have no trouble in
regard to suffrage with their own colored
people, but they are overrun by the recent
immigration and importation of negroes
from the South. If the illiterate negroes
have arrived so recently from the South
how could they have profted by the free
schools which Mr.. German says have been
maintained since 1870? He will not succeed
in making any person believe that the pub
lie schools in the rural districts of Mary
land are open to negroes, or that his de-
Tense Of the law is honest in other respects.
He is too well known to pose successfully
as a political reformer or champion of an
educated ballot.

TRENTON, n. J., April 1.-The United
States Steel Corporation this afternoon
nled with the secretary of state articles
amending its charter and increasing its
capital stock to $l.1OO, 10000. The States
fee for the filing of the paper was 500, 600.
The original articles filed some time ago
were only amended in one particular. This
amendment was made for the purpose of
taking advantage of an act passed by the
recent Legislature. Originally the cor
poration could not merge or pledge its real
property or any of the stock of any other
company except by the affirmative vote OF
the owners of two-thirds of the capital
stock. Under the amended charter it is
necessary TO have only the affirmative vote
of two-thirds of the stock represented in
person or by proxy at any of the meetings
of the corporation. The reason for the
change is the fear that the stock will be-
come so scattered that 1t would be i'm
possible to get two-thirds of the entire
stock represented at a meeting.
