Look AFTER THAT NEGRO. - The
Philadelphia Ledger says, Benjamin
S Turner, the colored Republican
candidate for Congress in the Selma
District of Alabama, is making a Wig
orous canvas on the platform Of uni.
rersdl amnesty, uHiUersai suffrage, and
unirrsdi repudiation Of tie National
debt" That negro thinks his brethren
will gladly vote to repudiate the debt
in order that they may be relieved
from the little taxes they pay, and
we have no doubt he knows bis peo.
pie well. Turner needs looking afer
by the magnatcs of his party.

An examination Of the late election
returns reveals somo strange things
To illustrate little; In Clarion coun.
ty the usual majority for tho Demo
Gratis is from 900 to 1000 But to
make a sure thing of fCongrcssman,all
personal ambition and annimosiles
were laid aside, and they went into
the canvass vigorously, and the result
of this was that they gave Griffith
the Democratic candidate 1914 ma
jority, aud thereby sent a Democrat
to Congress, from a district that last
year gave l,400 Radical majority -
On the other hand the Democracy OF
the State have to regret tie loss oI
two districts in Eastern Pennsylvania
which they had reason TO believe
properly belonged TO them. VIZ
mean, Of course, the Fifth, or Buck'
District, and the Twelfth, or Luzern,
and Susquehanna District. So, too
the Thirteenth, or the Columbia ant
Bradford District, could have beer
saved by the same sclfsacriicins
energy displayed in the West. Thes'
districts have been lost to the Demo
cracy by disafieclion in our own rank
and lack Of that unanimity of actor
and thorough work that has charac
terizcd the party in other localities
This is much to be regretted, ant
we trust that the lesson taught by tn,
result will be appreciated.

Of one hundred thousand dollars. The

tried, but aileran absence of about an

SAuno. The Philadelphia Agf says
Deduct the negro vote from that
cast bv the white Radicals Of Ohio, at
the late election, aud the Democrats
carry the State by ten thousand ma.
iorty. In this city, the same general
fact is apparent White men deserted
the Radicals by the thousands. They
would not be put on a level, if not
below negroes. But the solid negro
vote bridgcd over the chasm this time,
and allow the party in power to rob,
plumber aud pillage for another year.
A mighty change is, however, taking
place in tho minds Of the people,
They now see and understand the real
purpose and meaning negro suffrage,
They behold herds ofignorant negroes
driven to the polls like cattle, to vote
solid for the Radical party. Impair.
tia suffrage is farce. 1t has no
meaning as interpreted 10y the man
ayers Of the Radical organization
The negro has right to vote for their
candidates. lie has no right to vote
against them. This is the position OF
the men now railing the Radical
party in all parts of the country, and
