MIsINFORMED.

Occasionally we hear Of q man VINO thinks
the Chicago Times shd Rock Island ARGUS
h.v. deserted TIE democratic party, turned
n;vper;te and kicked clean out of the traces.
All sueb people are very poorly informed,
and few if any Of them read these two news
papers. We do not suppose the persons We
allude to would purposely misreprssent the
facts, bat they do not know the facts, having
been deceived by some person who wishes to
iniure these papers.
The position of the Times, as we under
stand it, and of the ARGUS, as We know it to
be, 10 that the people of each state are the
sole, only and exclusive judges Of who shall be
entitled to the right of suffrage within their
limits. If the people of Massachusetts OF
Georgia choose to admit all the negroes, In
dams, Chinese or Hottsn:oss within their
limits to the right of suffrage, it is their bus
iness, and the business of no man outside of
the particular state where the subject is
under discussion; neither congress, the Presi-
dent, nor the people of any other state have
any sort o. control over the matter.
But while holding to this plain cons titu
tional doctrine, we are of the opinion that, il
the southern states would admit ell eolored
men, over 81 years of age, who can read and
write, to the privilege of the ballot box, they
would destroy the capital of the radical par
ty, produce an immense change in pub
lie sentiment throughout the north in regard
to the admission of their representatives in
congress, and withdraw the negro question
politics.
The very few negroes who would, under
this rule, be entitled to vote, would moi
materially Affect the political status of the
ststes-but il would be recognition of the
great democratic principle that taxation and
representation should 60 hand in hand. And
it would spike the guns of the radicals anG
put an end to negro politics.
Does any democrat doubt this? Not one
or very few, if any. Democrats generally
therefore. do not differ from the Times or the
ARGUS, on this question.
And they should remember that the mere
expression of our opinion or advice upon this
matter, under the present state of the country
cannot be regarded Interterance-snd
is not SO regarded by the people of the
south.
They should remember another thing, viz
Slavery is abolished in this country, and al
the old pred udice about sbolitionlsts, sboli
sionism, &c, &C., should be buried out of sigh
forever. There are no abolitionists,, or pro
slaveryites, now. These names are or should
be numbered among the dead past, and, in
stead of these old prsjudioes, we should try
and realize that we have 4, 100000 of fire.,
oolored people whose welfare it is our duty t.
promo;e,-and that whatever tends TO benefi
and elevate these degraded people tends gen
orally to the elevation and prosperity of vi
all, as individuals and as nation.
Next week We may find time to chow how
when and why the democracy of the nortl
lost sight OF the good old doctrine in reear.

now, ID is time for Us to revive and restore

GRINDING GRAIN.
The Cheapest Power

There are hundreds Of large, well-watered stock
farms in the country which the owners value fully
one thousand dollars more than if they not
thus provided with water. It is high time, there
fore, for the great Agricultural Interest of the
country, that the farmers of the north should
be made aware of the fact that all the high and
dry prairies of the country, by the use of this
cheap and simple device, can be made good stock
farms. and really more valuable than these pos
sessing these natural advantages for water. for
there is no waste land and the water can be pro-
vded directly at the points desired. in farm yards
and pastures.
Where is the farmer, then, that after knowing
he can thus increase the real value of his farm
from $500 to $1,000, viii be content to make n
drudge of himself or employees by pumping wa
ter for stock2
After ten years experience in building and
erecting many hundreds OF these machines. and
extensive acquaintance with the various attempts
made within the last thirty years to construct
self-regulating Wind Machine, we most fully be
lieve that nothing has ever been ofeied to the
public equal to AIalladays Improved Mill.
