tisanship.
Bat as to the good ofthe Colcred Race. we have
something to say We profess no peculiar friend
ship for them. Wehave known very lille OF them
per sonely either equals social interiors Reared
IL utter ignorance Of that Race, we were ucasura-
bly, imbued with the common preiudices against or
aversion TO them, which experience and reflection
have bu, slowly removed. So Ter as We have any
paralities they are Of course against the African
blood and hue But reared in and devoted 10 Re-
publican principles how can We say that they
should not enjoy the sacred right OF Self Govern
ment the same as other men : On what possible
basis can we justify their exclusion and not brand
our Revolutionary forefa,hers as traitors Is not
even silence treason TO Liberty and Justice when
such que stion is at issue7 To our mind it clearly
] seems
'Ah bu. this does them injury If you say a
/ black man ought TO vote because be as man, the
Loco Focos will deprive even those who now vote
of the Right Of Suffrage.
Be i, SO If it must then. We cannot refuse 10 do
right because some one else will make that his pre-
text for doing gross wrong We must rather try
the harder TO override bis wrong By the earnestness
and energy of our advocacy OF the Right
Blu, the Express talks very loosely. The Ne
gro tornado in Cayuge' took rise in the murder OF
the Van Nests by Freeman. Niagara was lost by
Wing apathy and lying LocoFoco hand bill cir
culated too late 10 be reiuted. The Locos OF that
County did not take ground against Negro Suffrage
but 10 favor OF its Separate Submission to the Peo
pie The Counties where the Wing strength
most lies are nearly all represented IN Convention
/ by Wings. and as TO The Loco Foco clamor
against Negro Suffrage, i. was certain 10 come any
how Black Freemen used TO vote here the same
as Whites. In the Convention of 1921, Democra-
cy' dslranchised nine tenths of the Colored Race
all of them but the Freeholders There was DO
pretence OF the opposite partys riding the Negro
hobby" then. Yet a majority of the Democrats in
the Cow ention then advocated the exclusion OF all
Blacks from voting. Must The Tribune father that?
We have originated party agitation OF
Black Suffrage We have appealed for Equal JUS
,ice to the People of all parties and OF none But
even before the Convention was called by the Peo-
ple agans, Loco Focos OF this City began TO clamor
the Negro Suffrage. Should we combat their appeals
to the loves, prejudices or leave them 10 do their
work unopposed
That old story about the ultra philanthropic
friends of the Colored Race in the North is done
over No old granny the Express excepted now
pre,ends 10 put faith in it. So far is ii from the
truth that every discerning person must have dis
cerned, every noble heart mus, have rejoced at The
decided and steady improvement OF popular sen'i-
ment on this point within the last six or eight years
A Black man is very rarely kicked out OF public
conveyance now-the rule and exception have
changed paces-a fugitive Slave can hardly be re-
claimed this side of the Deaware-nany laws OF
this and other States bearing hardly on the unortu-
nate Race have been repealed; and Ohio-which
has the atrocious laws against Blacks OF any
nominally Free State-came very near repeating
! them last Winter and is morally certain 10 do II
very soon. Connec,cut-ihe State in which Miss
Crandal was so shsmefully mobbed for attempting
to teach some Colored Children in private school
now makes no opposition 10 such schools, and
majority fher Legislature last session voted avora-
bly, TO an Extension Of Suffrage to Blacks Four Of
the six Eastern States we think concede theirright
We do not despair OF our own States doing like
wise before this year closes II, then those who
assert EQUAL Rights are 10 be blamed for the con-
duct of those who deny them. we submit that there
is something 10 pass to their credit as well
