WIRED AT POSTOFt ICE AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER
Mr- ...I.! i
SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1S92.
In his speech of acceptance, Mr.
Cleveland thus alludes to the so-called
"force bill:"
"We are pledged to resist the legisla-
nalia of theft and brutal control which
followed another federal regulation of
state suffrage because we know that the
managers of a party which did not fcru
ple to rob the people of a president,
would not hesitate to use the machinery
created by such legislation, to revive
corrupt instrumentalities for partisan
purposes because an attempt to enforce
such legislation would rekindle aminos
ities where peace and hopefulness now
prevail, because such an attempt would
replace prosperous activity with discour
agement and dread throughout a large
section of our couutry, and would men
ace, everywhere in the land, the rights
reserved to the States and to'the people,
which underlie lie safeguard of Ameri
can liberty."
Such sturdy mendacity and impudence
so lavishly displayed at once determine
the authors calibre. Such so-called
elections and gerrymanders as have been
attempted by Mr. Cleveland's party in
New York, New Jersey, Missouri, Wis
consin, and Michigan, the precursors of
civil warthey can lead to no other re
sult. And. the author's simplicity is
shown by his horror of federal regula
tion of suffrage, when Tammany, no
doubt, intends to so regulate the suffrage
n New York as to keep its electoral
vote from going to Cleveland.
The Democratic convention recently
held at Jefferson City, Mo., mixed a
little slush for the Colored voters in the
shape of the annexed resolution:
"We congratulate the Negro voters of
the country on their maniteet tendency
to think and vote indipendently on
matters of public policv, rather than to
be guided by the patsionsand prejudices
of by-gone days."
At the same time the members of the
same convention were "guided by the
passions and prejudices of by-gone
days" by nominating for governor old
Methuselah Stone of whom the Demo
cratic organ says:
"Of a New Missouri," "A wide-open
MiHBoun, inviting everybody, even Yan
kees, and keeping time and step with
the great Northern Statt ot the Union,
the Hcbool to which Col. Stone belongs
and of which be i- a worthy representa
tive, has no earthlv connection."
The most striking thing about the
Homestead troubles is the labored at
tempt to make political capital of it.
Democratic newspapers have depicted
Carnegie as a monster, who made an
immense fortune by forcing hie
laborerfl
down to starvation wages. They have
not, however, stated how those wages
compare with those paid in the Demo
cratic states of' Alabama and Georgia.
Nor have they once alluded to the min
ing strikes in Tennessee. Carnegie had
nothing to do with the troubles at Brice
ville, which were pnt down by the mili
tary power of the State.
"The terrible experience of Southern
States in the days of Carpet bag rule
shows that the various devices which
the white people of the South have
adopted, iu order to restrict the exer
cise ol political puwer aie not only wise
and desirable, but absolutely indispen
sible to the public safety and the public
welfare."
So says the New York Sun, which has
lately done an immense amount of rav
ing over the 'Force Bill." It is a fact,
however, that the "terrible experience"
of Southern States has been since "Car
pet Bag rule." Nearly every Southern
State treasurer since those times has
been a thitf, and murder has become a
pastime.

Mr. Heury Downing a Colored

Then it will take a hand in South Caro

It will be a great thing for the South
and the country for the Negroes of the
South to get into the habit ot voting, no
matter whom ihey vote for. It would
be better that they voted the straight
Bourbon ticket than not to vote at all.
Globe-Democrat
Yes, because where one wou'd vote
Bourbon, 99 would go anti-Bourbon.
Thai's, evidently, why the Bourbs do
not want them to vote at all.
The Tuny County lynchers could not
be convicted because out of a band of
party men. thirty-five belonged to the
gang. This is the first instance of the
thing working-that way when the vic
tims were white but we hope it won't
be the last. White people need to learn
a good deal about the way lynch law
works.
Col. Slreator, who hung up Private
lams by the thumbs, is a Democrat and
chairman of his party's County Central
Committee. is, also, a savage that
should not be tolerated in any part of
the Uuited States, not even in Texas.
Especially srch a brute should not be in
vested with any authority over men.
It is conceded that the strikers had no
connectien with the assassin Bergman,
but their lawless acts led to his. Senator
Palmer, of course, was not connected
with Bergman but his incendiary rav
inge were really in the line of encourag
ing such cranks.

There was a meeting at Rev. Love's
Church Tuesday evening against a benev
olent society composed of white direc
tors and Colored members that supplies
medicine, doctor, and nurse, if needed,
when any of the members are sick who
pay to join and also pay a monthly fee.
Dr. Snelson and others showed good
reasons that it is a fraudulent concern.
That's right Rev. and Dr. away with
frauds. It is about time the Colored
people wrs learning not to let frauds
take their hard earned cash, remember
this is 1S92.
Henry Reils the white murdered of
Jtfl Lowe was released by a bench of
magistrates, July 29th who called it,
"Justifiable Homicide." Our two Color
ed lawyers Messrs. John H. Kinckle and
J. Robert Davis certainly deserve credit,
for it was no fault of theirs that, Reils
was allowed to go free as they clearly
showed that he wasguilty of a deliberate
murder but, of course white men are
angels in this city and never do
wrong or anything intentionlly. The pas
sionate speech of Mr. Kinckle complete
ly staggered our great: silver tcng'ied
orator Mr. F. G. dn Bigi.on, wbite.and he
was all at eea. arose and rebuked
as he called it the two lawyers for try
ing to arouse the passions of the Colored
people to desire revenae when it clearly
showed that Reils was justified by God
and man. But we don't see clearly that
way Mr. du Bignon, and is it not high
time that the Colored people should
de:-ire revenge when they are murdei
ed in cold blood? And when the mur
derer is brought before the court he is
allowed to go free and murder called
"Justifiable Homicide." Just think of

Mr. John Tibbs is the stingest man in
town. is afraid to go to church for
fear they might take up a collection.
Miss D. D. Rowe says she is tired of
single life aadsays she must hurry up
and get off before she is called an old
maid.
Miss Annie Doram says the young
people around Danville don't court fast
enough for her. She is going to try it
herself.
Mr. Mumford and Miss Lon are still
trying to make it up. She is waiting
him to get a little more of that fat of
from himself.
There are certain school teachers here
that never attend Sunday schcol and
hardly ever attend church only at night.
Very poor teachers we think indeed.
Mr. G. J. Doram's cash drawer was
robbed of five or six dollars last week
but he caught the thief and recovered
his money. The thief was turned over
to the law.
Wonder why the stewards and class

There is not a single Colored grocery
keeper in Danville who will buy a paper

hotel boys who went out in teams.
The Good Samaritans dance on the
barge was erjoyed by all who were
fortunate enongh to get there in time to
go aboard.
Mrs. R. Bruce will give a concert at
Zion Church on Aug., 17th. It is hoped
there will be a good turnout as the
church needs the money.
The concert given at Bethel Church
on Aug., 5th, by the children of on
and Bethel Sunday schools, under the
managmentof Rev. Mrs. G. C. Clark
and Mrs. Dora Newman, was a financial
success. Bethel Church returns thanks
to the parents of the children who took
part, also to Mrs. Clark and Mre. New
man.
IJlue Jeaus.
"Blue Jeans" is purely American and
the characters are all cleverly drawn.
The scenes are laid in Indiana and the
Hoosiersare portrayed vividly. There
is the gentlemanly lover, the typical
politican, the back-woods Hoosier, the
old settler and several other characters
that go to make "Blue Jeans" an inter
esting play. Some of the s-enes are un
usually strong and a lot of the comedy is
of the screaming variety. "Blue Jeans"
will settle down for a comfortable weeks
stay at the Metiopolitan on Sunday night
August 14.
Manager Bixby's Benefit.
The programme for Manager Bixby's
benefit at the Grand Opera House next
Monday night will be of such propor
tions that, aside from the popularity of
of the beneficiary, which should be suffi
cient to fill the house to oveiflow ng, it
will command the attention of a nuse
ment seekers. Among some of the fe
tures that will be seen will be the St.
Paul Minstrel Club, in a genuine min
strel first part F. Hammil, in his im
ititions of Adeline Patti Prof. Thomas
Taylor Drill, pianist, of Minneapolis
Prof. William Courtney ,piani9t, of New
York Miss Bertha Harmon, the soprano
soloist Miss Bourne in a dramatic read
ing, and the gvpsy dance from 'The
Gathering of the Clans," executed by
Mies3s Lucia Waterson, Hattie Water
son, Sadie Adamson, En a Adarnson?
Nellie Morrison, Maria Pederson, Eva
Morrison, Mamie Dinon. theeignt young
ladies who made such a hit with this
dance recently at the Metropolitan
Opera House. Frederick L. Bancroft
will also be seen in some very clever
tricks of legerdemain, and the pro
gramme will conclude with the one-act
firce, "The Rough Diamond" presented
by members of the Litt stock company,
with Miea Julia Arthur as the cotne
dienna, "Margery," and Mr. George R.
Edeson as "Cousin Joe." There will be
an abundance of most excellent music,
which will be furnished by the Twin
City Mandolin tn Guitar Club and T.
P. Brooke's augnmented ercbestra.
Truly it can be said that the programme
is made up nf a host of volunteers, and
if there is a vacant seat at the Grand
Opera House next Monday night, it. will
not be because Manager Bixby's friends
have not volunteered in sufficient force
to furnish an entertainment in every
way diversified and worthy of patronage
The seats have been placed at one dol
lar, and are now on sale at the box office
of the Theater, and a kindly hint to
those who wish to secure a desirable lo
cation is to go at once, as the sale indi
cates that very few seats will remain un
sold by Monday morning.
Don't Stop! Kead!
Don't misconstrue, but be patient and
learn something which may be of value
to you if you want a home, want to visit
old friends, want to seek new fields tor
your labors.
