Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

November 10, 179l.-Thomas John
son of Frederick, Nd. today wrote a
letter to President Washington. de-
scribing Georgetown as "the bes.
market for tobacco in the State, per-
haps in America" Georgetown is
growing rapidly and its trade is ex-
panding. The exports from the town,
two years after the peace with Eng
land was concluded in 1888, exceeded
those of Alexandria. and in six years
they were more than double. Now
they are about half those of Balti-
more. Georgetown is regarded by
many shippers as more convenient
than Baltimore TO the greatest guam
tity of grain. flour and tobacco in
Maryland and Virginia. During the
Revolutionary War. Baltimore ex-
ported the whole Of the tobacco of
Maryland. but during the peace that
succeeded Baltimore did not export
one.fourth Of the tobacco of the State.
In three years after the war ended
Maryland tobacco, and soon there.
after more than one.half.
November 10, 18O6.-To encourage
trade on the Eastern Branch the city
council enacted an ordinance today
for the establishment of tobacco in
spection house on portion of the
square between NJ and N, Third and
Fourth streets southeast. Up TO this
time Georgetown has held undis.
puted control of the tobacco trade for
large area Of the country. It is
considered only right that the city of
Washington shall have it's share of
this trade. Along the Eastern Branch,
block to the west Of the tobacco
house, stands the sugar house. used
as brewery by DR.. John Cunningham.
This section Of the city Is thriving.

Yard Hill, as 1t is called, is one Of the

Says Mans Origin
Began In Africa

BALTIMORE, Md. - That man
originated in Africa Their than Asia
was the theory advanced by William
Leo Hansberry, instructor of history
at Howard University, i'm his illustrat-
ed lecture on "Negro Civilizations
of Ancient Africa"
Mr., Hansberry declared that lead
ing scientists today agree that man in
his origin was in every way Negroid.
Scattering the theory of mans
Asiatic origin, the speaker pointed
out that at the time Of the discovery
of America by Columbus, Timbuctoo
was a thriving and important African
city.
He quoted Victor Hugo, who said
that africa in the Goth century
will be the most interesting, conti-
nent of that century" and reinforced
his statement with one from Darwin,
who stated "the transformation of
the lower animals into man happened
in Africa"
In further support of his thesis,
Professor Hansberry quoted from
a book Of Dr.. Dixon, noted HarV ard
alnthropclogist, who says: IF the
Scandinavians could trace back their
ancestry far enough they would find
it Negroid." The Bible and science
are in perfect agreement. the speak
