TrampS in the Dark Continent

smugRled out Of Africa In the dark for the
Turkish and Arabian markets. IL n now

good public buildings, a hospital for ne
groes, a park and the largest Protestant
church in Fast Africa The Germans are
pushing a steel wharf out into the bay 30
that vessels loaded with railroad iron and
rolling stock need depend no longer on
lighters. The building Of the railroad to
the far interior has begun.
The railroad has introduced into the
country a new white element such as the
natives never saw before. There IL a. yet
no law to exclude any class Of whites, and
In the past three months hundreds Of the
very poorest class Of hbanians have been
dumped upon the shore. They have gone
there without invitation, and the Ost-
dirikGnisehe zeitun0 says they are what the
British call tramps and are In Africa merely
because Of their mistaken notion that
somehow they are going 10 pick up living
on the railroad.
The whites Of East Africa are only hand
full In comparison with the black popula-
ton, are wholly dependent upon them. in
that tropical region, for labor, and must
retain their respect or they cannot control
them. This lie why the Germans write in
their newspaper Of the new element from
the Balkans as a serious menace 10 our
prestige and ask the Government 10 stop
the immigration from that quarter.
The newcomers are described ~ bare
headed and bsrefooted roaming the
streets OF the town in nothing but shirt and
trousers, swapping pins or other TRIES for
the bananas OF bread peddled by black
street vendors, begging shelter In the huts
OF the natives, persistently mlngling with
the negroes, getting drunk with them on
the native brew and stealing from them
when the opportunity Offers.
The Germans along the coast OF the colony
have now petitioned the Government TO
deliver them from The evils Of tTampdom
They remind the Government that Il re-
fuses TO sell Land 10 any one who cannot
show property worth at least $1,000 and
they ask for the imposition Of a head tar
upon all immigrants from tho Balkans IA
sure method Of keeping them out Of the
country.
