the ballot for the state primary
election on August 2. In his petit
ton Sims sets up that the propos-
ed amendment would disfranchise
him, as he is unable to read or

against him because of previous

alleged that proposed amendment

National Colonization Society of
America, which was organized in
1916 for the purpose of setting IN
Africa the free Negroes of the
United States. The idea was an at
tractive one-that the NeGEoes,
who had been victims of injustice
through having been brought from
Africa to the United States, should
be given a chance to develop, free
from the white man s greed or op-
preston, in their originally native
land. After an unsuccessful at
tempt to establish the colony south
of Sierra Leone, in 1920, tract of
land was acquired about Cape Mes
urado, and in April, 1922, an ex-
pertinent at small farming was be-
gun, each man being allotted 30
acre tract and given means of cul-
tivation.
Rebuffs and disheartenments
for several years only spurred on
those workers for the success of the
colony who had faith in their orig
inal purpose. But the American
Negro, it developed, had no great
longing to return to his father
land; he preferred to work out his
destiny in the country to which he
had been brought by force and
which he had learned practically
all he and his kind ever knew of
civilization. The colony grew slow
ly. In 1S47 Liberia was declared
an independent republic and was
left to its own resources. The
powers of the world recognized it
as a state and the settlers proceed
ed to try the experiment of self
governing body with constitution
nodded on that of the United
States.
In order that the white man
might not obtain political influ-
ence in Liberia the constitution
provides that all electors must be
of Negro blood. They also must

Liberia, the Negro state of Afri-
ca. whose woes have been before
the world prominently for the last
year. and whose finances are to be
bolstered up through a 81 ,O0O,OO0
loan from American, British
French and German bankers,
through the good offices OF Sec
retary of State Knox, has been on
the verge of bankruptcy for sew
eral wears. Its expenditures have
exceeded its revenues, and reform
within the state, so as to put 1t on
a sound financial basis, has seemed
impossible of attainment. Presl-
dent Taft, soon after his inaugur-
alton. sent "A commission of lnyestl-
cation to the country, on the petl-
tion of the Liberians for treaty,
under which the United States,
through a protectorate, might act
the part of the big brother to the
struggling republic. Neither the
President nor Secretary Knox, ac-
cording to advice from Washing
ton. is in favor of an open and de-
clared protectorate. But they hold
that by the very terms OF Liberia
existence the United States has "a
moral obligation toward the coun-
try. and cannot afford to see the
struggling Negro republic gobbled
ND by Great Britain, France or
some other European power.
That Liberia is in pressing need
of a reorganization of its finances,
saws the Chicago Record-Herald, Is
apparent when it is considered that
the British government has been
pressing for some readjustment OF
the situation regarding the loan'
now amounting to about $445 ,OOo,
including interest, which was IN
curred first in 1871 from BRUSH
financiers, and has since been re-
ad diusted. There is a further cns-
toms loan of $4sO,000, and an in
ternal debt amounting to about
5000 900. For a population OIL
about 100000 these would not
seem to make formidable grano

is not a progressive country. Ac-

in which trade is carried on with
the United States and Great BrI-
tain. Exports of the country for
1908, the latest year for which
statistics are available, were $780,
900, and imports for the same year
were $1,169,000. Palm oil, palm
kernels, coffee, rubber, coca and
piassava fibre are the chief ex-
ports. The capital and principal
town, Monrovia, is visited regular
ly by seven lines of European
steamers. There are no railways
in the country, but the River st.
Paul is navigable for 25 miles
from the sea by small boats.
Under the Franco-Liberian
agreements of 1872 and 1907 Libe-
ria lost about 1000 square miles
of territory, which she could not
effectively administer, making her
present area about 10000 square
miles-nearly the size of Ohio or
Kentucky. Only about 10000 of
the 100000 population are Amer
lean Negroes or their descendants,
the remainder consisting of indi-
genous Negroes. The republic, it
is said is not held in favor by the
natives. The Negroes from Amer
lea, observers say, have failed to
make any considerable impression
on the aboriginal inhabitants.
whom they are expected to civilize,
and the testimony of travellers is
that the Liberians in general arc
lazy and quarrelsome.
A recent writer on Liberia. Ed
gar Allen Forbes, defends the Lii
berians. He asserts that the
people of Monrovia look, dress and
act very like the betterclass Ne
groes of Atlanta or Louisville. All
the Americo-Liberians (and many
civilized natives) are neatly but
not flashily clothed, and most of
the aG origines put on an extra
cloth when they come to town L
doubt if there be anywhere in the
United States Negro community
of the size of Monrovia where
there is so little boisterousness, pro
family or indecency." The writer
charges that the unfavorable crit
icism of the country by English
men is not warranted by facts and
that civilization is making head
way in Liberia. Under Negro
teachers trained in the United
States the Lutheran, Methodist
and Episcopal churches have made
and continue to make strong eff
forts to educate the younger gen
Grafton. The expenditure for mis-
sions and schools maintained by
Americans totals 100000 to $780,
900 a year. That an American

present situation is prophesied in
