Assuming the maaaeemen. Of the
editorial department Of the ADVERTISER,
with, Il hope.} some app. ec:a.ion of the
responsibilities attending the position
and feeling conscious Of my inexperience
and limited abilities, I ak for the sup
port and patronage of those who have
heretofore patronized the paper. hope
to improve by experience and if the
ADVERTISER does not meet the expecta-
tons Of its friends, l only ask that they
suspend their Judgment until time shall
determine whether it is mcritcd. My
political views II hopel are too well
known to need any exposition at this
time. / shall endeavor to meet the VA.
rious questions as they arise. The AD-
vERTIsER shall continue TO he the advC.
cate ofthe cause of justice and humanity
and the cause should he estimated ae-
cording to its own intrinsic merit aud not
by the efforts Of its advocate. ,a1-- .

the total white population Isl ,loJ, and
the total colored 1907. OF these there
are 146, 427 voters, 94,74 militia. 10 5o4
unnaturalized foreigners, 293 ,5e5 persons
betweenthe ages Of five and twcnty-onc
years, $50 blind, 376 deaf and dumb, and
6l3 insane. It will be seen from tn.
above statistics that no white politician
need marry negro, unless he do SO from
choice, as the number of male negroes i
onAgreater than the number of females

both the poor whites and the blacks by
putting enmity between them. They
divided both to conquer each. Yherewas
no earthly reason why the blacks should
not hate and dread the poor whites when
in state Of slavery, for it was from this
class that their masters received their
slave catchers, slave drivers and over
seers. They were the men called IN up
on all occasions by the masters when any
fiendish outrage was to be committed
upon the slave: Now, sir. YOU cannot
but perceive that the cause Of this hatred
being removed, the haired must he re-
moved also when slavery is aboli he'd.
The cause Of the antagoflism is removed,
and you must see that it is altogether
illogical. 1t is putting new wine into
old bottles, mending new garments with
old clothes, to legislate from slave hold
ing and slave-driving premises for peO-
pie whom you have repeatedly declared
your purpose to maintain in freedOm.-
Besides even if it were true, as you allege,
that the hostility of the blacks toward
the poor whites must necessarily be the
same in state Of freedom as in q state Of
slavery, in the name Of Heaven, we lev
e.entially ask, how can you, in view of
your protested desire to promote the well
fare OF the black man, deprive him of all
means of defence and clothe him whom
you regard as his enemy in the pai,oply
of political power Can it be tliat You
would recommend a policy which would
am the strong and cast down tile de-
fence.ess? Can you, by any possibility
of reasoning, regard this rs just, faic or
wise: Experience p owes that those are
oftenest abused who can he abused with
the greatest impunity. Men are whip
ped oftenest who are whipped easiest.
Peace between races is not to be secured
by degrading one race and exciting an
other, by giving power to one race and
withholding it from another; but by
maintaining state of equal justice be-
tween all p;srtics-tirst pure, then peace
able.
On the colonization subject very much
could be said. 1t is impossible to sup
pose, in view OF the usefulness of the
! black man in time of peace us laborcr in
the South, and in time of war us a soldier
at the North, and the growing respect
for his rights among the people and his
increasing adaptation to Il high state of
civilization in this, his native land, that
there can come a time when he can be
removed from this country without ter
riblc shock to its prosperity and peace.
Besides, the worst enemy of the nation
should not cast upon it's fair name 1,
greater iuiamy than to suppose that
negroes could be tolerated among them
in state of the most degrading slavery
and oppression, and must be cast away
and driven into exile for no other cause
than having been freed from their
chains.

IA Wheat SWindle.n

1--WE are informed upon reliable all.
thority that from five to ten car loads OF
Chicago wheat are being shipped from
Chicago to Milwaukee daily, for the pur-
pose Of securing the sale of the rotten
stuff from this market Before being
palmed off as Milwaukee wheat, it Is
probably mixed here with the wheat OF
our own market That is a transaction
which should meet with prompt and cx-
plicit condemnation. We should reg, ct
to know that any Milwaukee dea err
would countenance the disgracefui bust
ness, or that our business men would
knowingly assent to it,"
We find the above floating around our
exchanges, under the above heading,
credited to the Milwaukee Ne,cs. We
would not refer to the matter mt all, were
it not for the seeming ignorance which
mission me! chant in Milwaukee knows
that the great bulk of the condemned
wheat sent to Chicago is Ic-silippcd to
Milwaukee. Here, the wa.ehousemen,
for years past, have refused to take it i'll
to their houses, and nobody will buy it
on the track, unless to ship to Milwau-
kee, where the walehousemen eagerly
accept it, and give a place in their hous-
es, where 1t may be mixed with good
grain This is well known by every
man ia the trade to have been the p nc
tice for year. Not only this, bat the
IRE, ected Wheat" which is our lowest
merchantablc grade, Is being constantly
purchased he.c, drawn out u: our waie
houses, and shipped to Milwaukee, vince
1t commands IIom loIa l5c per bushcl
higher than in Chicago. and wheie 1t
often passes IA NO. =" In TACT, this
has become to be u regular business. 1t
is a notorious fact that understandable
wheat can always find Il market in Mil
waukee.-Lhicuyo T. ibune.
We clip the above from the Chicago
Tribune. The remarks of the I. ib,ue
show what our western grain buyers
have always claimed--that is, tina, Chi
cago having through her railroads mo-
nopolized the western markets, swind,es
IN the grading OF grain. 1t shows tia,
Milwaukee pays more for wheat q: Ger
tain kinds, tlan Chicago. If the Nj.
waukee me CHAINS can chea. { l. esssse 81.
her own grain, it shows that the Chicago
buyers are poor judges of wheat Or tina,
their grades arc not established with ref
erence to actual value. Let us have oul
southern road and Chicago will then
have reason to complain Of st. Louis fo
giving more for Iowa grnin than Chicago
,0nnts to pay.

cd delegation to the above remarks OF the
President: 5ss
Mr.. Prcsident-In consideration of
delicate sense of propriety, as well as
your own repeated animation of inuispO-
sition to discuss or to listen to reply to
the views and opinions you were pleased
to express to us in your elaborate speech
to-day, the undersigned would respect
fully take this method OF replying there
to. Believing, rs we do, the opinions
expressed in that address, are entirely
unsound and prejudicial to the highest
interest of our race rs well as our country,
we cannot do otherwise than expose tne
same, and as far ~ may be IN our power,
arrest their dangerous influences. II y
not necessary ut this time, 70 cal atten-
ton to more than two or tnrce FEATURES
of yonr remarkable address. ~
,ihe first point.t0 which we feel sspe-
cially bound to take exception, is your
attempt to found u policy opposed to our
acknowledgements, upon the alleged
ground Of an existing hostility on the
nart OF the former slaves toward the poor
white people of the South We admit
the existence of this hostility, and hold
that it il entirely reciprocal; bat you OBJ
,viously 1o.nmit an error by drawing an
argument from All incident OF y state OF
slavery and making it basis for policy
adapted to state of freedom. The hos
!. tility between the whites and blacks of
the South is easily explained. 1t has its
rQOtand sap in the relation of slavery,
and was melted on both sides by the
cunning Of tho slave masters. Those
j; masters secured their ascendancy over
