the very heart Of a city with rigid

tensity Of race prejudice even in
the North. It is a symtOm OF
social troubles which causes me to
look with anxiety to the future.
The negro is increasing in crimi-
nality. Liberty is regarded by
him as a license. The only remedy
is restraint and the enactment OF
laws to suit his peculiar mental
and moral nature. Laws suited to
the white man do not ft the negro.

Federal constitution should be re.

that could be done for the negro

It will afford him protection and

to say that in spite of constitution

An effort is being made in Con-
gress to permit national banks to
lOau money on real estate. This
movement comes from the West
and South more especially.
The House COMMITTEES on bank-
ing and Currency reported favor
ably some days ago the bill intro.
duced by Mr.. Lewis, Of Georgia,
|, permitting national banks to make
lorns "upOn notes, bonds OF other
evidences Of debt secured by mort
cages or other instruments Of Sc
curity, on unincumbered real estate
situated in the State, Territory or
district where such association is
located, worth exclusive Of build.
ings double the amount Of the loan
thereon, provided, however, that
not more than twenty-five per
eentum Of the total capital and
surplus or undivided profits OF
such association shall at any time
be invested in such real astate Sc
curities." There is g bill In the
hands Of the Senate Financ Com
mittes, introduced by Senator Mel
son, authorizing any national
banking association Sin q place Of
not more than twenty thousand
people, according to the last CEN
sus," to loan "not exceeding one
third Of fits paid-up capital and
surplus, upon real estate security,
consisting Of improved, occupied
and cultivated farms and not with
in the boundries Of an incOrporat-
ed city, town or village, such loans
not TO exceed in any case one third
Of the real cash value Of the real
estate taken as security for the
lOan.n
There appears to be no prOba'
bility that either OF these bills will
be passed at the present session Of
Congress, but it is said that serioas
efforts will be made hereafter ia
put through such measure.
It is noticeable that the friends Of
the national banking system are
generally opposed to this extension
Of its privileges. They contend
that loans on realestate should be
restricted to State banks, under
rigid regulations of State laws,
but why State banks are in any
worse or better condition to make
such loans is not apparent. Il
State banks can protect themselve,
the national banks in the State
can surround themselves with
equal protection.

SHIPPING BILLs IN CONGRESS-,


No one is surprised to know
that the Senate has passed what lie
known as the Frye bill, requiring
that coal and other supplies for
the army and navy in the Philip.
pines shall be carried only in
American vessels. This lie a most
singular bill. The Philippines
are not states Or territories, but
simply dependencies which have
their own tariff laws and are treat.
ed in all ESSENTIAL repeCts as e for
eign country. Now We are begin
ming to inform them that they shall
not have the privilege Of carrying
or receiving their supplies In
cheaper vessels than those Of the
United States. The first step lie
this Frye bill, which COmpels our
government to employ home yes
sells IN transporting coal and army
supplies. The result must be an
additional burden to the national
treasury. Not only so, but we
viii be precluded from competing
with other countries in the supply
Of coal to the Orient.
This bill is to be followed BY =
broader one restricting Ell trans

ehandise between the United States
and the Philippines to American

lness. But making them high will
IN al probability stiae The trade
here and divert it to Europe.
The Philippines have little occa-
sion for our food supplies and less
for our raw material and they can
get manufactured goods cheaper
ID Europe if We are going to put
an extra burden upon sending
them from here. The trade Of the
islands Is already mainly in foreign
hands, and there could be no more
edeetual way Of keeping It there
and giving their foreign trade al
most wholly to Europe than that
posed In the Frye bin.
