The new age. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1902-190?, 1902-06-13

The New Age is the official spokes-
man and organ of the colored people
of the entire state. We are daily re-
ceiving many letters of congratulation
and well wishes from the most prom
inent colored people of the state.
These afford us considerable pleasure,
because we are here to represent them
in every manner, that the large popula-
ton of the people of our race in this
state might have an official medium OF
expressing their sentiments upon any
subject, an organ which would concen-
trate their legal. social and political
resources in one grand, harmonious
melody.

York, the venerable premier colored
editor of the country, extending to us
the congratulations of the New York
Age and wishing us much success in
our new venture. He says, Let youi
paper represent the whole people and
avoid personalities and you cannot
help but make a success" We appre'
ciate very highly the letter Editor For

" secided to follow.

CRITICISM.

Do we ever stop to think how easy
a thing it is to criticise-what a very
little effort and thought, neither brain
nor talent. No matter how hard has
been the fort to succeed, nor how
long one may have striven to gain GER

down our dreams of years. What mat
tiers how it discourages and hurts, we
all must accept, and what is worse,
to swallow usually, the one who criti-
cises most is the most untitled to
judge. Let any one embark in any
walk of life, it is just the same, those
who are too ignorant or indolent to
make any effort, are the first to tell
us what we should do. If we try to
write we have written too much nr
too little. If We should dare to branch
out and try our wings at elocution,

for the cultivated ear, and we do not

The kind of man that is wanted

to turn everything he does to practical

toner seldom believes the merchant or
clerk when describing the quality of
his goods; the children soon learn
that their parents will lie to them;
Jones was not deceived by the bust
ness mans "out of town." the social
and polite lies are nearly always taken
at their real value; in short, these
lies seldom accomplish the purpose for
which they were intended. They only
add a needless uncertainty to business
and social life, and do more harm than
the truth, told with tact and courage,
could possibly do. All wise liars know
this; yet the sinful old world will go
right on lying just the same; and all
the liars who read this article will
smile their approval, but not one will
stop his lying. because he has not the
courage to discontinue what all the
rest of the world is doing.
Lord, Lord. how this world is given
to lying!"

A habit of indulging in things which
our judgment cannot thoroughly ap-
prove grows stronger and stronger
by every act of disqualification and
we are led on by degrees to an excess
of luxury which must greatly weaken
our hands in the spiritual warfare. If
we do not endeavor to do that which
is right in every particular circum-
stance, though trifiing, we shall be in
great danger of letting the same negli-
gence be found in matters more es.

MAY ADOPT GOLD STANDARD.
Pressure on Mexican Government by
Merchants and Bankers.

A dispatch from Mexico City yesterday
says: Owing to the depreciation of silver
and the high gold premium. various large
contracts are held back. and some have
been suspended. 1t Is said that the steel
work for the new National Theater will not
be finally ordered until it Is seen how silver
Is going. Many houses that had contracted
for machinery or other articles at an ex-
change % points lower than the present
rate will lose money in complying. Many
business men aver that it is only uues-
ton Of time when the country will go on a
gold basis. No importer can make calcula-
tions regarding future prices, and this un-
certainty prevents the fullest measure Of
business activity here.
The present prosperity is due largely to
the fact that the impetus received during
the past two years in the direction Of
building and construction of port works
mining. utilization OF electric power. &C.
was SO powerful that the country must go
ahead. But is Is confidently asserted that
great foreign capitalists who have put mill
lions of dollars into Mexico will not be sat
6fied long with the present monetary con-
dition.
They will, 1t is believed, aid the govern
ment in carrying forward some well ma
tured plan Of transferring all business to
a gold basis. Mexico's finance minister.

Railroad Company Buys Land in South
Baltimore.

The Western Maryland Railroad Com
pany has purchased 125 acres of land in
South Baltimore for terminal purposes, and
it is said work will be begun Immediately

poses. The site is located west of Fort Nc
Henry, on the Middle branch Of the Pa

the point has, 1t is said, been acquired
To reach the point the Gwynns Falls
route at the western city limits, already

the Patapsco viii be bridged at a shallow
point farther up stream. Congress has ap-
propriated several hundred thousands Of
dollars to dredge this branch of the Pa
tapsco and with the completion of this
work Baltimore will be given a new deep
water harbor.
1t is understood that the price paid for
the property was 100000, but the details
of the purchase are not available. The
land for the most part has never been i'm
