THIEVES AGAIN. - AT the present
time there is a greater number of thieves,
sharpers, gamblers, black legs, confidence
men, and pick pockets in the country,
than ever was known before. On last
Monday week, while Martin Hoke was in
Ashland, his house was broken open, in
the glare Of the MONDAY sun, and sever
al articles of clothing stolen. Other
houses in the neighborhood we're visited
and provisions taken.
A few weeks ago, on Sabbath afternoon,
John Buchanan, of jackson township,
had $3.50 stolen from his house while he
was absent. He also had q horse stolen
about the same time.
On last Friday night, near West Salem,
q young man named White was shot while
in the act of stealing honey. Although
severely injured, thirty-two shot having
entered his body, he will probably recOv.

NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, TUESDAY OCTOBER II, 1886.


months, and almost decimated the laboring pop
ulation. In the four years dating from 1850
the production of sugar fell off Is per
cent. to be succeeded by further decline OF
5000 tuns per annum from 1S54-when
the island was again visited with cholera and
small-pox--to 1859, in which year the exports OF
sugar stand at the low figure OF $4,000 tuns.
From that year they began to rise, and until the
recent drouth with which the island has been
visited, were steadily on the increase, so that IN
1862 Jamaica exported more sugar by 3,ooo
tuns than she did in l640 two years after free
dom, and by 1000 tuns than she shipped in l54l.
From these figures it is clear that tho alleged
Incidence of the blacks has had nothing to do
with the decline Of Jamaica's prosperity as
sugar-producing country. That decline COM
menced at period long antecedent to the abo-
ltion Of Slavery in the British West Indies, and
is attributable to causes altogether independent
of the willingness or the unwillingness of the
negro to work for wages. The argument, then,
against Freedom drawn from the example OF
Jamaica, is worth nothing.

Easy STEPS.

A recent National Democratic Convention in

restored to its pristine purity and vigor.
STEP SEcoSD-PRACTicALS SLAVERY. We hold this to
be Government OF white people. made and to be per-
peuated for the exclusive political benefit OF the white
race and in accordance ph the constcat adjudication Of
the United States Supreme Court that people OF Arcsn
descent cannot be considered as citizens Of me Unsed Sof
and that there can In event. nor under any crcum'
stances be any equality between the white and other
races
This makes the Dred Scott decision the law
of the land.
STEP THIRD-THE WAR--FRAuD. VIOLENCE, Cor
RuP1IoS.-We announce emphatically our opinion
sncs aud eorrupen and Is not in any sense, the ex'
preston Of the sovereign will Of the people OF Lousi
ana and while believe that 1t should be repudated
and abolished speedily as 1t can be done legally
1.-THE Constitution of 1864 was the work OF
good loyal men who endeavored to save the
State when these National Democrats were aid.
ing Lee and Johnson and Dick Taylor
STEP FoURrH-PAY THE REBEL DEBr.-The institu-
tion Of Slavery having been eectuay abolished In the
Southern States consider 1t our right 10 petiton
Congress for compensation for all losses sustained by
the emancipation policy.
OF course the war and the Rebel Debt were
the consequences of the " emancipation policy"
