SATURDAY, APRIL 2 5, 1-92 Our white biftluen of the E Church are having quite a little treeze among themselves on the subitct of clerical pohti s. One of their own min- isters states that he knows personally of methods adop'ed by ambitious men in the Church wh ch, if known to the au- tlioritietf, wou'd land them in the peni- tentiary, and al-*o, a prominent minister in a recent address, mtikes (barges of bribery, wire pu hng eaucu-es, ('ic'ator- ship, clerical rings, Jsimony and eo on We have an idea that for soiwe \ears onr white brethren have been so intent up- on studying the immorality ot the "Negro" that they ha\e neglected to examine into their own. We are ftl&d that circumstanc beyon 1 their con- trol have foiced the matter upon their attention. Their ministers eeem to neg- lect to cal1 their atttntion to the passage respecting the mote and the beam, fre- quently enough. In Senator Wolcott's recent speech upon his hobby the siUer 11 he said: "The first great force opposed to the passage of the Silver b'll in this Con- gress (as it had 'en three yean) the present Administration. No stone had been left unturntri, no effort unem- ployed to compass the d feat of the measure." This a splendid compli- ment to President Harrison, but is not true. The "first great force" was the good sense and honesty of the Ameri- can people, which made the 8 cent dollar cranks afraid to use their immense mp,prity to pa^s the Bland abomination of desolation. The thing was conce ved in initially and has pen-hed in infamy which was pereciaely wl at it deserved. There are many arts etpab'e of fur- nishing a good living, requiring no capi- tal as a start and requiring only tl ac- quisition of the necessary skill, to which our young men might turn their at'en- tiora if tho^would. One of these is pen- manship which supports a great maT.y white men but very few Colored ones. We have known a great many young Coloied men who seemed to have the requisite qualifications to become first- class penman, but know of very few firat-class Colored teachers of the art. ot one of the Democratic apostles whb sailed into RhodeV*Island dared mention free silver Tlvey were in a state with a population of 3S0.000 havirg in its savings banks $6:1,000,COO and this money divided up among 131,000 depoa- i ors They, moreover, did not think it good policy to advise those depositors to vote for a law enabliug tho3e banks to pay them off at 6S cents the dolh r.
