should remember that after the decision of the

should take the Offices and then resign in favor of
the elected Democrats This plan would have

Report Not Optimistic.

Perhaps no state paper of national
or international Importance in recent
years has given rise to as much con
lecture and widespread interest among
Afro-Americans in the United States
as has the long looked for report OF
the American commission which was
sent to Liberia in the spring Of 1908
to investigate and report on the gen.
eral condition of affairs in that little
republic.
Upon three distinct occasions during
the year the aforesaid interest was
intensified, but without any definite
information as to the actual work or
accomplishments Of the commission.

the second was the return Of United

when congress convened last Decem-
Der. The report has at last been made
public.
Pressed upon one side by France and
beset by Great Britain upon the other,
Liberia, the little Negro republic OF
Africa. Is between two millstones
which threaten to grind it off the map
unless the nation has the support OF
some power commensurate in strength
with Great Britain and France.
This is one of the principal conclu.
sions expressed in the report of the
American commission to Liberia.
which was transmitted to congress by
President Taft with a special mes.
sage on Saturday, March 26. After
reviewing the internal dangers which
threaten Liberia as well as those
which crowd upon her from the out
side, the report recommends:
That the United States extend its aid
to Liberia in the prompt settlement OF
her boundary disputes.
That the United States enable Ii.

For what it has been able to accom-

rule are commended highly by the
commission. The Liberians have ad-
vanced in their civilization, and the
native element has not undergone any
retrogression. The civilization of the
nation has also done much toward adj
yancing the tribes, the commission
says
Attention Is called to the fact that
the Liberians never have resorted to
revolution, and the nation is not, as
has been said. bankrupt. Liberia,
while attempting to solve her internal
problems. has become involved in ex-
