presidents aud ezar, bishops and elders
and ministers all over Christendom re-
call and commend bis life, and honor
his memory. Aud this praise comes
largely from those whose theories OF re-
ligion differ materially from those Of
the Roman Catholic Church. Great
men in the worlds protestant circles are
singing his praises Notwithstanding
their constant antagonism to certain
theological claims which for centuries
have been the foundation of the Church
Of Rome aud the supremacy of the pope.
Many popes have died before, but his
tory records no such general expression
of sorrow, no such an array of eulogy.
What does it mean? No age before this
has been ripe for such an experience.
This is the natural product of the times
as produced by successive victories of
progressive ideas over fear and super
stition aud Ignorance. Such an exhibi-
ton could not have taken place a Gen.
tury ago. 1t is the fruitage of a higher
manliness, a broader liberty. 1t is pos
sible because of the stronger hold which
the spirit of the Divine Master has on
the mind and heart of this world. This
outburst of personal praise is the child
of Christian federation. We have seer
its struggles, and noted its victories owe
bigotry and oppression, but in this OF TO
day it seems almost to have reached tn
summit, from which to look back over
long way of difficulty, filled with obsta
cles. We rejoice in the spirit manifest
ed. Jesus Christ was tolerant of every
thing except evil. Christianity shout
ever emulate his example.
| Pope Leo was in many respects re
markable man, called to place of trt
mendous influence and responsibility a
a most critical hour; but the measur
of what he accomplished proves his abb
ity and justifies the enconiums. A Gu
tured scholar, shrewd diplomat, pc
sessing many of the elements of broa
craftsmanship, and that recognition
responsibility, the grasp of opportunit
which made him master. Yet creates
of all his attributes was his fidelity
} truth and love of justice. He believe
! in the manhood of man and the Go
r hood of God. Peace loving was his n
/ ture and sanity was his hope. He wi

ANGLES Letter.
The Nations Dilemma

"Who ever, North or South, black or
white, by word or deed, stirs up strife, is
an enemy to both races and to his
ountry."-Booker Il. Washington.
Recent terrible events have served to
convince those interested in sociology,
of the exigence of such measures as can
deal successfully with the growing racial
antagonism, which is at present the dis
grace of our couatry. To determine the
future status of these ten million col
ored, American citizens to the satisfac-
ton of the more prejudiced representa-
tive Southern white folks, and the ad-
vanced cairo American is a matter so
frought with difficulty, and with danger
to the amicable relation of the North
and South, and hence to the Common
wealth as to form problem, the just
solution of which will tax to the utmost
the wisdom of those best versed in
ethics and politics. The task would be
comparatively simple if the Anglo
Saxon as race had attained to the
high standard of civilization possible to
a very large proportion of the race. By
just comparison of the results of given
opportunities we can become convinced
that the opponents of the colored race
are somewhat presumptious in their at
titude toward citizens supposedly eman-
cipated. These are as justly entitled to
the suffrage as hundreds of white men
really no better qualified than the large
proportion of intelligent negroes, who
are unjustiy restrained from exercising
this valued privilege. Southerners argue
that it is unsafe to allow their colored
fellow citizens this privilege because
they can be corrupted. But these make
a forceful counter-charge when they cite
the examples of the white men-their
corruptors. We know full we'll that
there is more of politics than patriotism
in the controversy.
There are those who would debar the
negro from the supposed advantages of
the "higher education" through fear of
"negro domination But every act of
cruelty and injustice is but adding fuel
to the smouldering fires of resentment,
which may yet find vent i'll period OF
frightful anarchy. This can surely be
prevented by perfect justice in the
punishment of the crimes resulting from
the more serious defect of character, for
which some Of the former slave-owners
were largely responsible. Insulting an
tipathy made manifest to those who evoke
the sentiment, and barbarous punishment,
are means as futile as they are wicked.
Those who grati6ed a just anger in a
manner which has shocked and disguised
the civilized people the world over have
established precedent most dangerous
to the white race. 1t is suggestive to
the negro who has not as yet descended
quite so low. The only convincing
argument that could be urged in favor
of lynching would be its Efficacy in the
prevention of the provocation. The re-
suits do not afford the ghost of an excuse.
A continuation of this diabolical prac-
tice will only serve to arouse among the
ignorant negroes state of fury and
recklessness of consequences and de-
spair in the minds of those who are so
mansully striving to uplift their less
fortunate brothers.

BELFAST CAMDEN ELECTRiCS.
If Figures Suit Syndicate, Road Will
Soon Be Built,

Belfast, Me-, Jan. 21.-For several days
there have been street rumors that the
electric road from Belfast to Camden is
to be constructed this coming summer In
quiry of interested parties drew out the
information that a syndicate Of outside
parties with lots of push and plenty of
money is negotiating for the purchase of
the charter of the Waldo Street Railway
Co., which holds a charter for an cleo
trio road from Stockton Springs to Cam
den.
The syndicate will, if the present negp-
tlat1ons are successful, put ON engineers
to survey the route from Belfast to Cam
den and Will make an estimate of the
cost of construction and equipment #
the construction will not exceed a Ger
tain price, the work of building the road
viii commence, this autumn, and the road
will be ready for business in 1904
Should the work of the engineers show
that the road cannot be put through for
the sum set by the syndicate then the
matter falls through, and in that case
the electric road from this city to Cam
owners of the franchise are concerned
Tuesday forenoon, the Waldo Street
Railway Co. held a meeting to consider
the proposals of the syndicate and then
adjourned to Thursday, Jan. 49, Those
interested are not inclined to give much
information until something definite is
decided upon; but they say this: That
the prospect for the road being built is
better than ever before. The outcome of
est by the people of this city as well as
by the inhabitants of the towns of North
port and Lincolnville, through which the
proposed road will pass.
