Not the Reason.

The Macon (Gd.) Journal and Messenger,
in referring to Negro Suffrage having been
voted down in Wisconsin, appears to think
the reason why the Republicans are oppos-
ed to Negro Suffrage in the North and fa-
vor it in the South, is because the Southern
Negro, by reason Of having been enslayed,
is the superior OF the Northern Negro
This is not the reason. The Republican
politicians in the North imagine they can
get along without the assistance of the Ne
gro here, but they are very fearful that, II
the South is treated as co-equal with the
other States in the Union, they can not Sc
cure and hold majorities in those States
without the assistance of the Negro
With most of these politicians, their pro-
fessed love for the Negro is only put on.--
It is power they want. They refused to
agree to such q compromise In 1901,
as would have averted the War-not for
the sake Of the Union-but because they
were afraid that 1t would produce "a rtip-
t,re of the Republican pGfyf" With them
Union was nothing+-with them peace was
nothing-with them the welfare of the
country was nothing. The paramount, the
overlapping, reason was, how can the
Republican party be maintained, and
that with them is the main consideration
now. AS they were lifted into power by
the Negro question, they confidently ex-
pect that question to keep them In power

avail themselves Of the first opportunity
that presents itself after the military arm of
the Government shall have been withdrawn
from that tcountry, to pounce down upon the
poor Negroes and fasten upon them form
of servttde more intolerable than the one
from which they have but only now been
emahcipated, is the most arrantstuff imag-
Unable. 1t is trumped up for purpose, and
that purpose is, to keep the Southern peo-
pie from participation in the legislation of
Congress, If these men, who, affect such
an irrepressible love tor the Negro, can be
assured that.the South can have no voice in
the legislation of Congress for a quarter, or
a half, or whole century, they would at
once abandon. their advocacy of Negro Suf7
frage in, the South. x "a, I'D
Why? The answer is to be found In this:
The Southern States are what may be term
ed purely agricultural States. 10 them, as
to all agricultural States, high tariffs are
injurious. Agricultural interests demand
that trade shall be made as free as possible
Admit the representatives of the White
people of the South, and then let the Agri-
cultural interests of the country make COM
mon cause in Their own behalf and the
shackles will be stricken from trade; for, we
presume the agricultural interests of the
whole Union-North, South, East and
West--are about four times greater than all
the manufacturing and mechanical interests
(great and small) combined. New England
wants the monopoly of the market Of the
United States for her manufacturing inter-
ests; and this monopoly her Republican
politicians feel they cannot hold and main-
tain save through the exclusion OF the Rep
resentatives of the Southern White people.
On the condition that Negroes of the South
shall be made voters, they could be induced
to receive .loyaly Representatives from the
South. They entertain an idea, that they
could SO use the Negro voters as to send to
Congress Representatives that should be
''loyal" to the manufacturing interests OF
New England. If they thought they could
not do this, their humanitarianlsm for the
Negro would very suddenly abate. 1t Is
the manufacturing interest of New En-
land rthat'is at the bottom of all this trou-
ble.' --

The London Democrat OF last week has the
following statements: tn7g-fr..s t'nr.,
On Friday afternoon, as the Springfield
train was passing the farm of John Clark, a
few miles from here, some one on the train
shot and killed valuable horse belonging
to that gentleman. All efforts to obtain
the name OF the monster who fired the pis-
tol have thus far been fruitless, but we
hope thathe may be found and punished as
he justly deserves. A man who would thus
wantonly destroy stock, does not deserve
to be called human.
