Itttte rtf rrt Suites. iv. in it hi it in $1,0,DD0. n, the rrpsil-nt MattliewH The Colored Race Issue. Ha Stood ly A Short Chapter from the Memory of a Jlejxirter. Hew York, August 26 The HeraM publishes an interview with pesitlcnt Cleveland in regard to the jppointment of Recorder Matthews wcceed Frederick Douglass. The preMdentsaid: "I had only one ob ject in appointing 'Mr. Matthews, nmely, to put the best man I could jnd that is the best colored man ia the position. The last thirty pars have wrought great changes in thm country. The old' relations Ut broken up and the old times can never return. The north and the louih are equally gratified tor this jjct. You can not apply the rules which obtained yesterday to the tbinjis of to day. We are a new aition. The occurrences ot twenty five ear ago belong to ancient hbtory. Now we have two great panic. That if our salvation. Every lour years these parties have a wrestling match. It is a hot fight throughout the campaign, but when the fight is over we forget the fight ami settle down good naturedly to M. II. Stevens, managing editor of the Kansas City Journal irom 1S76 to 1S83, passed through the city several days since. He was holding that position when Jesse James was killed. When questioned in regard to that tragedy, he said, "Tnere has been a great deal of misrepresentation about the matter. I was present at Police Commissioner Henry Craig's office when Bob Ford started out on his mission of bringing Jesse James to justice, and heard his instructions; they were to shoot in self-defense, but not to assassinate, as was done by the coward who slew him. I think the James bovs are and always were more honorable than the Ford brothers. While in Kansas City Jesse James lived within three blocks ol my home, assuming the name of Jackson. "At the time of the Northfield bank robbery, I was repotting on the St. Paul, (Minn.) Dispatch. A few days belore the robbery 1 noticed five suspicious looking men riding up Fifth street. I followed them three blocks, try.ng to lcatch on" to lupport ihe administration in every something but failed. At this time honest ffrt toward good govern ment. The colored people of the loutli are just like all the rest of us. The moment they begin ' recognize the duly ot citizenship lli.it moment thev will begin to form convictions ml to be governed by them. Does any responsible man suppose when the white people of the country di vide themselves between the repub lican and democratic parties the colored men will all think alike and join the republican party ? This is in insult to the colored man's brains. It is sheerest nonsense, and more, it Would be a great political calamity. Difference of opinion is not only the charm of the republic, but also its latetv, and 1 have no doubt neither has any thoughtful man when edu cation does its effective work, the colored race ot the south will wheel into line with the republican party and partly into line with the demo cratic party. It can not be other wise so long as human nature is what it is now. I have great respect tor the colored people. Again and again I have told delegations which tisitcJ me that thev must have con victions of their own and act on them, thev must choose their politics with thoughtful care and personal independence. In that way alone can they hecome worthy citizens ot the nest government in the world. I appointed Mr. Matthews solely be cause I believed him to be the right man tor the place, anJ I teel certain people will come to seel am right." Queer Doings in Kansas. Topeka, Kansas, Aug. 25. Gov. Martin received a telegram this eve ning Irom Woodstiale, Ksnsas, a new town in the extreme western part of the State, saying Col. S. N. Wood, a prominent Democratic pol rtician and speaker of this city, in Company with L. C, Price, had been Captured by a mob composed of cit Ueru of Hugaton this atternoon, while on their way from Woodsdale to Lukin on their return home to this city, and taken to Hugaton, where H is feared they have been stinnna- the book keeper tor the Dispatch, whose name was McAfee, owned a fine horse and the second day one of the party of men I had followed came to htm am' tried to buy it, but did not succeed. The next day I saw them ride their horses around to the rear ot a house and dismount. When tliey temountcd I discovered that they were alt heavily armed After thev had gone I approached the house and asked who the men were. They replied tint they did not know anything about them only that they were robbers. This was only twenty miles from Northfield. I did not think anything more about it until after that event I saw Frank James, but could not discover any resemblance to any of the robbers, and, besides my own memory, 1 have reason to believe from good I authority that Frank was not there. I recognized Jesse James at sight, at the time ot his assassination, as be ing one of the party I had seen at St. Paul." Mr. Stevens says ex-Governor Marshall of Minnesota is working hard to secure a pardon for the Youn ger Brothers. Governor Hubbard's official organ, in a recent issue says, 'No Governor of Minnesota will ever pardon the Younger Brothers; it would be political death to him from any view of the case. There are hundreds ot other convicts that should be pardoned betore them." This is undoubtedly Gov. Hubbard's own expression. Efforts have been made to induce the Youngers to tes tify against Frank James in case he should ever be Drought there for tri al, but even the promise of pardon has tailed to induce them to say be wa9 there.
