THE New YORK WoRLp is the national
Democratic organ. 1t desires to have all
the aid Tor its party that can possibly be
had. 1t even wants the colored vote. 1t so
plainly declares. Listen to tho following
from its issue of Wednesday -
"The fact that Senator is to be elected
from New Jersey next fall, to fill the seat
now occupied by Mr.. Cattell, is giving much
interest to the caSvass now already begun
for the election of the State Legislature.
Tine Republicans are busily engaged in or
ganiziny schemes for securing the negro
vote, which has been called into existence
by Inc htteenth amendment. 1t Is only with
in few years that slavery has been abolish
ed in New Jersey, and the colored people
owe nothing to the Republican party 10 that
State for the change in their political condi-
tion. The colored vote in New Jersey does
not naturally graviate to the Republican
side, and the Democrats should see to II that
no trickery of party organization deprives
them of any votes that would rightly belong
10 the Democratic side, WhateUer naDy be
the ootor of the voters.
SO the Democrats in New Jersey are anx-
ious to have the colored votes. The New
York World tells them not to be such fools
as to lose any help they can get "whatever
may be the color of the voters" Thus it

Is THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, outside of Del
aware, even by profession, a "Whitc Mans
Party p We judge not, and We bring facts
in justification of that judgment. One of
these is that the Democratic Legislature of
the State of New York, before its recent ad-
iournment, passed bill, to throw open reg
istration to colored citizens, precisely the
same as white citizens. The bill received
almost a unanimous vote, only three or four
country Democrats opposing it, and the ar
gument, made by Democrats, In its favor,
was that the 18th Amendment was now con-
clusively adopted, and that no other course
could, for moment, he thought of.
The Democracy of New York having
thus placed themselves by the side of their
party in Maryland, in tdvor Of negro rg-
tStrdtion, we suggest that in Democratic

representation accorded to New York,
Maryland, and Delaware
