We believe that the expectation tnat the negroes
VIII vote with sncn unanimity III sympathy with
their late masters VIII prove TO be utterly an
founded. The reasons for tns belief are SO obvious
that they need not he Indicated. Furthermore, we
hope that the vote oil the blacks Will be con-
solidated IN favor Of no party and Of 10 section.
There Is great danger to the republic from tins
massing oil votes on the line or nationality We hear
too much or the irish vote. the German vote aud
now we are to nave The negro vote. In the OF
some OF the people which seek shores there Is,
unfortunately, too much truth IN the expression.

cnievous classification 10 the eniranchscd blacks.

case Of the individual negro this is excellent advice
so far as 1t conemplaes The blind adherence OF The
negroes as body 10 one party II Is pernci0as IN tbe
