The Democracy JOyful.

be made eligible to exercise the right of
voting. So observable was this alarm
about negro suffrage among the bulk of the
democratic party, that Some people were at
d 'oSS 70 "n'' .sorstand the reason. The most
p'"' ..olpIe reason is undoubtedly this. Our
democratic voters are apprehensive If the
negro is allowed fair chance-if he has
equal rights given him, he will outrun
them Intellectually, and eventually leave
them in the back ground. Democrats of
the modern stripe. dare not risk an intellec-
tual or business race with the negro on en-
even scale, hence their fear of the negro,
and their determination to keep him down.
Whether the democratic masses have just
ground for alarm, provided the negro even
gets his right, is matter not worth while
to discuss now. AS to which would come
out ahead on fair trial, is an open ques
ton.
Sensible people are generally, not 80
afraid of the negro; they are willing to give
him fair chance in the world, and If they
cannot keep pace with him intellectually
and in other respects, then let the negro go
ahead. On the other hand, week minded
people dare not hazard competition with
the negro, by allowing him the right which
fully belongs to him. n.

iority on joint ballot
ENLAReED.-The Appleton Crescent
comes to us enlarged and improved in ap-
pearance, it's increasing business demanding
such enlargement While we congratulate
the Crescent on its pecuniary prosperity, we
cannot give it credit for much increase in
political honesty. For instance, apeaking

The APPLE TRADE OF M1CH1GAN.-Th
Detroit Free Press speaking of the frui
product Of Michigan, sums up the amour
of apples shipped out of the state thus ia
this season, as follows:
Michigan Central brls. ..131. OO
Michigan Southern, brls ITO, 0O
Detroit and Milwaukee; brls. go. 1900
st Clair river, shores of Lake Michi-
gan, and wagons to Detroit, brls.. 81, 00t
Aggregate. ................- .4IO, 0O
The prices paid have ranged from So
to 81 25. We place the average at $3.50
although it will probably xcee1 that figure
This gives ther ound sum of 81, 435, 600 a
the proceeds Of the sale of apples shippet
out of the State. 1t is truly a source O
wealth to our farmers that ought not to b'
despised, considering the little labor ant
outlay that it costs The Orchards of tn
State will become more valuable from yea
to year as the trees increase in size and age
In this article we have made no referenc
to peaches and grapes, the annual trade il
each of viii III will nearly equal, if not ex
coed, that of apples. Our State is rich il
fruit alone"
Wisconsin is of course too new State, a
yet, to boast of her shipment of apples, bu
she has made fair beginning this season
Several thousand barrels have been shippe,
from this county alone.
