TAIN THINGS FOR SAFETY.

Much has been said lately about the dangerous automobile, but it is not to be forgotten that the horse is also a vain thing for safety. An English journal devoted to the interests of au- tonlobiIes has been collecting recently statistics of horse accidents to offset similar figures relating to automobile mishaps. The statistician in this case kept up his work for a period Of 159 days, watching all the daily news papers. During this time he noted l. ITS horse accidents, resulting in death to 225 people and injuries to 1871 oth- CTS. Although it would be unfair to the horse to compare these figures di- rectly with automobile accidents hap pening during the same period, as no figures giving the number of horses in use are at hand, they do show that &C., cidents will happen in the use of the horse. But of course the unreliability of the horse doesn't furnish any excuse for reckless use Of the automobile.

off when we first saw him. We at about to take aim and bring him down where he stood when my most trusted man, Walaonen, stopped me, saying, in whisper, Not time yet" s- ~,

The gorilla looked at us for a minute or so out of his evil gray eyes, then beat his breast with his gi- gantic arms and what arms he had!-- then gave another howl of defiance and advanced upon us.

essence, and probably suffrage limited
 cation operating equally; and that is all the best friends of the negro ask.
 We are persuaded that the worst thing that could happen to the negro
 would be the renewal of political agita-
 tion concerning his rights. It would stir up ill-feeling and put back the pro-
 gress of civilization many years. Yet
 if thecourts offer no protection to his
 rights as plainly guaranteed by hte constitution, the almost inevitable re- suit will be the turning of the negro
 towards congress and the starting of movements by politicians for partisan ends to enforce the amendments by
 reduced southern representation and other drastic laws. This would be un- fortunate. Far better for the country would be a quiet enforcement of the constitution by judicial jrocess, which would vindicate the American principle of equal laws, while leaving the intel ligence of every state master of the po- liticaI situation.-New York Tribune.
The daily morning journal and courier., 1903-05-02
SUPREME COURT AND THE NE

SUPREME COURT AND THE NE GRO.
 There is not the slightest question that the fourteenth and fifteenth
 amendments confer civil rights. They l are not merely political declarations f under which congress acts at discretion, as in the matter of executing a treaty promise or annexing a territory. The former has time and again been suc-
 cessfully invoked to secure citizens of the United States against misuse by state governments of their powers. Nobody attempts to deny that constf- tutions like that of Alabama are meant to deprive the negroes of their rights as federal citizens without taking the same rights away from the white men. Some southern politicians say that they
 have been clever enough to do this in-
 directly, but 1t is @ fundamental prin- ciple of law that what is forbidden di- rectly cannot be done indirectly. Courts are supposed to go to the heart of ques- tions, and not be put off by transparent subterfuge. As the counsel for the ap- pellants in the present case pertinently said in his brief: ITO the negro, if the guarantees of the fourteenth and fif- teenth amendments are stricken from under him, under the pretense of want of jurisdiction in the courts of theUn- ited States to enforce them, he has on- ly one other guarantee between him and actual slavery; that is the one con- tained in the: thirteenth amendment. What reason would he have to hope for protection under that one, should the southernstates by similar methods un- l dertake to deprive him of it's guaran- | tee?" If case cannot in some form
 be brought to the court so that it will forbid discrimination in granting the franchise, it would seem, indeed, as if
 states might re-enact the old black l codes and indirectly enslave the ne-
 groes without any redress left to them
 but the doubtful mercy of an appeal
 to the political branch of the govern ment.
 We hope that some case will be
 brought forward under which the legal and not the political supremacy of the constitutional guarantees to the negro will be tested. And we still have faith | that the supreme court would firmly uphold those guarantees. Any other so- lution would be most unfortunate. Many of the southern politicians have doubt schemes, and, if they were declared in- valid, there would be general acqui-

INFORMAL ELIMINATION.

Canada may never be formally benev- olently assimilated by the United States, but there is already an important pro- cess of informal assimilation going on. Enligrants from this country are pour ing into Canada by thousands. and a large amount of United States capital is finding investment there. John L. Bit finger. United States consul-general at Montreal, who some months ago sent to the State department list of some of the investments by his countrymen in Canada, recently supplemented this list by another. The new investments by Americans noted by MT. Bittinger cover a wide range. They include the pur- chase of five thousand shares in the Royal Bank of Canada, located in Mon- treal, at $250 a share; great purchases in association with Canadian capitalists of timber lands in Newfoundland: the purchase of coal properties in Nova Scotia; the acquiring of important nickel mining properties; other numer- ous investments in mining enterprises; the purchase os water power sites. Americans are becoming more and more interested in grain growing, mining and manufacturing in Canada. An Ameri- can concern is building a. fleet of ten vessels to run between Duluth and Que- bee. American firms which have es- tablished extensive business here con- tinue to establish branches in Canada. In closing his report. MT. Bittinger says: Tn every great enterprise pro- jected American capital is solicited and investors are readily obtained. The rapid development of Canada is largely due to enormous investments of Ameri- can capital and to the energy of Amer icans."
 Of course. It is a good thing for Canada that she is situated where she is. The business men Of this country will help her and incidentally, we hope, make an honest dollar or two for them selves.

THE S. 4. E. CONGRESS.

New Haven is great city for con- ventions. It is also good city for con- ventions. That this is so is indicated by the fact that more and more people are getting into the habit of 'conven- ing' here. There are so many that it almost seems at times as if the princi- pal occupation of the people of this country were converting. Those who convene here have a good time, are very busy, and do themselves and New Haven much good. The more of them the merrier and the better.
 Of all the conventions New Haven has had the Fourteenth Annual Con- gress of the National Society, Sons of the American Revolution, which has been in session here this week, has been one oe the most notable. Never has New Haven been visited by finer body of conveners. If the Fathers of the Revolution have been able to see
 
 the Sons thereof this week they have been justified in taking an honest pride in their appearance and in. being pleased by their evident prosperity. And the Sons have certainly felt honest pride in the Fathers, and in their own descent from them.
 The Congress paid New Haven a large compliment and did a good thing for the Society by electing General Greeley President General. General Greeley takes deep interes: in the work of the Society, and his experi- ence, skill and efficiency will be very useful to 1t,
