Scarcely day passes without some new

Nobody is safe in life or property. The
latest outrage is the brutal ravishment of a
young lady, aged 10 years, last
Saturday evening. From her own
statement the brief facts are, that
as she was passing the residence
of 1. Mower, corner of Walnut and West
Liberty, at 611s P. NJ, three men seized her,
put plaster over her mouth, preventing
outcry, and took her to a vacant lot in rear
of the German Lutheran Church, where
they brutally ravished her person repeat
edly for nearly two hours, then left her
half dead and exhausted. Women living
in the neighborhood took care of the poor
unfortunate. We forbear giving names
and details of the affair, as two men have
been arrested, and are now being tried for
the crime, and have been identified in court
by the victim.

An UnwhoIesorne Proceeding

The Cincinnati Commercial, a paper that
supported Negro Suffrage at the late elec-
ton in Ohio. has this warning to its friends
in Congress:
GAS Ohio has rejected the Constitutional
Amendment comforting suffrage upon the
negroes of Ohio. by an immense majority.
we do not think the passage of Thad. Stew
ems and Charles Summers proposed suf-
frage law would be wholesome"
1t would be about as unwholsome pro-
ceeding as could be got up, not only for the
party, but for the Ohio delegation that
dared to vote for it. If this be doubted,
let the RAIDS try it on.

the city can't hold them. Cliques and

THE s'Veteran Observer" of the Neu
York Times finds consolation in the fact that
Ohio was Republican in 1868, and lays the
tlattering JUNCTION to his soul that it will
be so again in lS6S.-Bostom Post.
This ''Veteran Observer" although re-
ceiving salary of $1,000 or $l.SOO per an
mum from the State Treasury as Commits
sioner of Statistics, spends his entire
time in writing for the New York Times
and Cincinnati Gazette. The Constitution
says that he shall have his office with the
Secretary of State, but Mr.. MANSFIELD
never makes his appearance in this city
unless to draw his salary for neglecting his
duties. His Report on Statistics is of no
real value, for he can spend no time to get
them up in proper shape. The salary is in
the nature OF a pension to an cid political
hack whose life has been spent in abuse of
better men than he ever pretended to be,
and should be abolished.

and the doomed party may as well cease to
force it upon the South. Connecticut, CAL
ifornia Montana, Pennsylvania and Ohio
have proclaimed in tones of thunder, that
this is white mans Government, and New
York and New Jersey, by tens of thou
sands, will soon confirm their solemn dec
laration.'

The Next Presidency-TheR RadI-
Gals Seek 10 Win Favor by
Nom m n tin1 Grant

The Neo York Times is candid enough to
admit that the move in favor of Genera
GRANT for President is caused by the late
California, Montana, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania. 1t says:
Tue late elections, in our judgment, will
compel the Republican party to make Gen.
Grant their Presidential candidate. They
dare not nominate anybody else-however
much very many of their ''leaders" would
Ike to do so. If Ohio and Pennsylvania
had gone Republican by as large majori-
ties as they did two years ago, and if the
fall elections generally had shown no abate-
ment of Republican strength, the party
would have felt reasonably sure of electing
any man they might nominate, and prob
ably Judge CHASE ,oould be their candidate.
But such a proceeding now would BE- bv
no means safe. The elections sho,o beyond all
controversy a reuulsion IN public sentiment
against the measures and policy toith totich
Judge CHASE is most closely identified. He
is more tn roughly committed to the prin
ciple of universal negro suffrage than any
other public man OF equal prominence as a
been most distinctly and decisively
repudiated in Ohio. 1t is all very
well to say that the Republican patty
cannot abandon it-that they must fight
on" and rally afresh to the combat" and
:" keep the banner of eternal Justice very
high" and all that sort of thing. So it
may, and 81 it should; but it does not in
tend to be beaten in the next election. The
party does not see very well how the cause
of justice and the rights of the negro are
to be aided by the election of a Copperhead
President; and it does not intend to permit
any such result. 1t will go in to ,oin, and it
will nominate as its candidate the man who
is most sure to be elected.
In the above we have Abolition tactics
exemplified. GRANT is to be the man, not
because GRANT holds to any of their no.
tions, but GRANT is available, and GRANT
must be the man. At the last election
ANDREW JOHNSON was available, and AND
REV JOHNSON was nominated. In 1910
"honest JOHN TYLER" possessed the ele-
ments of availability, and with "Tippe-
canoe and Tyler too" was made Vice Presi-
dent-neither JOHNSON or TYLER holding
sentiments in common with the party
that selected them as their candidates.
How they complained Of being cheated by
JOHN TYLER is matter of history. How
they now complain of being cheated by
ANDREW JOHNSON, is patent to every man
that reads Negro Suffrage paper. 1t they
elect GRANT, they will find that he is not
of the stuff that men of wax are made of,
and that he will not be moulded to their
purposes when they seek to use him.
