q gallant Southern Union nan, held clerkship
in the Third Auditors Office when the Presi-
dent was elected. One is postmaster at vicks-
burg, but was not appointed By GRANT. One
holds no Office, and never did. Mrs. GRANTS
nephew holds a cadetship at Annapolis, but
was not appointed by the President. The
Presidents son graduated at West Point, but
was not appointed by President GRANT.
50 the long list of twenty five relatives dwin
died down to thirteen, and of these the President
has only appointed three! That is the whole
story and if the authors of these miserably
contemplate inventions had the slightest sense
of decency in their composition, they would
never repeat one of the lying charges. But a
falsehood is as good as the truth with them,
and, if anything, rather better. At any rate, it
is their only capital in trade; and we shall,
therefore. expect them to adhere to them until
the people 10 1872 shall set their seal of con-
domination upon their false and disgraceful
conduct.

Civil Rights for the Coiored
People.

We observe that Mr.. Sumner is pressing his
supplementary civil rights b;ll,. the object of
which is to give to colored people the same
privileges in all public conveyances and in all
hotels and public places that are now enjoyed
by white people.
This is right. Let the law be as clear on
this subject as the Constitution is But law
to this effect will make no appreciate differ
ence in the Southern States. The better class
OF cOlored people In those States are not dis.
posed to thrust themselves on white people, and
the better class of white people in those States
are not disposed to deny to coiored people the
same general public ri hts which thew enjoy
themselves. We know OF one case III point
A reputable colored man, State officer and a
minister OF the Gospel, was travelling in a pub.
lie coach in Southern State with some white
men aud white lady. Reaching O village
where they were to take the steam cars, there
was no dinner provided. The colored gentle
man, known to be a thorough Republican, said
he was hungry, having travelled all day without
breaking his fast The lady took basket of
edibles from under the seat of the coach helped
the colored man bountifully, and then handed
it to the white gentleman. Africa and America
dined together in that stage coach from the
name basket. The c0lored man did not feel
honored, and the white folks travelling with
him did not feel humliated. Yet that colored
man, upright, pure minded, reputable, honored,
and honorable as he is did not, when they
reached their journeys cad, 90 to the same
hotel with these white people.-Chronicle.
The Daily Chronicle, in this article on Sena
tor SUMMERS supplementary civil rights bill
appears little nervous, a little afraid of the
equality proposed by that bill, and advises
something, in its opinion, even better and of
more importance to the colored people of the
country. We say to the Chronicle that the
colored people want all proposed in Senator
SUxNER's bill and more, and that they will
continue to agtate until there is no distinction
made in this country based on caste.
The Chronscls looks upon the desire of col.
ored gentlemen and ladies' to have access to the
best accommodations on railroads, steamboats,, /
and ia iotels that they are able to pay for,
and the intelligence and refinement to enjoy,
as thurstng themselves upon white people"
How foolish Railroads, steamboats,, and ho-
tells are for public accommodation, providing
the public comply with their reasonable regu-
lations, and decent respectable white person

animate the workman. the road to cooperation
is easy, aud the individual capitalist will give
place to the union Of laborer and capitalist in
one person.
The Golden Rule is a capital rule for the
capitalist to measure his duty by, bat the work
ingman needs to carry 1t around with him,
too, and gauge his own conduct by it. If both
employer and employed we're to realize it as
the brightest standard of noble living, aud live
up to its requirements, there would be less
complaint on every hand. Work would be
better and more faithfully done. Workingmsn
would be more prosperous and happy. Idle
boys, complaining that the apprenticeship
system as at present established, instead of
keeping them out of the street and the Jail, as
formerly thrusts them into them, would have
work and opportunities for developing the skill
and talent now often employed in picking
pockets, forging. breaking into houses, aud
the various swindles constantly p9rpetrated
Mr.. PHrILIps needs to revise bis speech and tell
the whole story.

The advocates OF repeal OF the duty on
the pretense that they are influenced solely by
the interests of the dear people, They at
feet to believe, or il they do not, they LABOR to
make the consumers of these articles believe
that they pay the duty TO which they are subject
cd by law, and that if it were repealed the price
of both coal and salt would be reduced just to
the extent of that duty. Last week we showed
that salt is cheaper now than it Was in 1901,
before the present protection was afforded IT,
and that if the entire amount Of duty from salt
were equally divided among the people it would
be only one cent and a half to each. This fact
will show what perfect humbug is the whole
free trade outcry on salt, we'll the fact that
there is no duty on anthracite coal, which is
the kind people use for domestic purposes, and
that bituminous coal, upon which there is
small duty, is only used by large manulactur'
ing companies, gas companies, and railroads.
1t is burned to a small extent in the immediate
vicinity of the mines by families. To them il
costs nothing now, or but the merest trihe, and
the repeal of the tariff would make it no cheap
er to them. If it affected them at all it would
be only by the ruin it would bring upon all
bituninous mining companies. As they could
not compete with the Nova Scotia coal import
ers, they would be compelled to suspend snd
the comparatively few who now use 1t Tor DO
meste purposes would be unable to procure 1t
at any price. The rich manufacturers wouio
be the sole gamers from repeal OF the da'y
on bituminous coal, and the people ana 'n'
miners the great sufferers.

4 OAc-Si(.ei View.

NJ. Wendell PHILLIPS idea seems 20 be
that as soon as man ceases to work
for day wages and begins to hire other
men, he is no longer entitled to the fruits
of his enterprise, the profits he makes upon
| the labor Of others, and hardly to the protsc-
ton OF the laws. Ii /. man takes a contract
to dig a ditch and hires another man to bel o him.
though he lablrs as hard as his "hred man." he
has ceased TO be a 'wockingInan," and has be-
come capitalist and monopo!ist. The daily
laborer is al right aad the employer is ali
wrong. Anyone sho becomes rich by his in
dustry and shrewdness is at once transposed
into tyrant and opposer Of the poor. Ia one
OF his recent speeches, arraigning the capitalist
for the crime of getting rich he sharply criti
cises Sir RoBsRr PEsL, the great English cot
ton spinner, because he bought secret Of one
Of his workingmen which contributed greatly
to his wealth, without giving him just consid-
eratipn. The secret was discovery by the
workman OF a plan that prevented spinning
machines from clogging, trouble that caused
delay and curtailed the daily earnings of oper-
atiyes. By the discovery Of this spinner he
was able to earn from two to three times as
much as the others. PsEL secured his secret
for quart of beer day AMI small SUN in
cash. By ''chalking his bobbns," which was
the mans device, PEEL accumulated a large
fortune; and Mr. PHILLIPs denounces him in
good set terms for overreaching or taking ad-
vantage of the ignorance Of the discoverer, in.
stead of giving him tenth of his fortune.
Perhaps PGEL was wrong at any rate, we are
ready to admit that he was not very generous.
But there is another side to the one Mr..
PHILLIPS presents, which is presented by an
exchange, which comments upon the prejudiced
views he expresses, 10 constantly harping upon
the greed OF the employer and the wrongs and
unselfshness of the employed. 1t says. cor
rectly, that he quite overlooks the selfshness
of the workman VINO refused to deal generously
with his fellows, but kept it to himself, and
made all be could out of it, while the others
were living on smaller wages. Instead of
sharing his secret with them, he finally sold il
for pot of beer. The critic thinks that Mr.
PHILLIPs has overlooked the "real root Of the
difficulty in the labor question, which is the
mean spirit OF one workman toward another
1t is this spirit which animates trade unions
and the Limitation of apprentices, and which
has prevented successful cooperation thus far
Let Mr.. PHiLLIrs apply to the workman as
well as to the capitalist the words: Thou
shalt do unto another as thou woaidst have
another do unto thee" When that spirit does

a Doubtful statement.

dency of the United States what Pennsylva-
MIA thinks about it," that ''many OF the Penn
sylvanis delegation in Congress assert that if

dates in 1872, Speaker BLAINE will he the man
put forward by the delegation in the nom;nat-
ing convention"
We have no authority to spcak for Psnnsvi-
vana upon that any ot,rer- subject. nor do
we lay any claim to "the gift of prophecy;"
but at the risk Of being thought meddler in
other peoples affairs, and Of proving to be
false prophet, we venture The prediction that
the Pennsylvania delegation--if the RepubIi-
can delegation is meant-wil do no such
thing; and we base our opinion Oh the emphatic
condemnation by the Republican papers Of the
State Of Mr.. BiATNEs cons titution of the Ways
and Means Committee. They look upon The
fact that no has placed upon that committee a
majority of "reyenue reiormers," alias free.
traders, as direct blow at the great interests
OF Pennsylvania. So f.r as it has be3n in his
power thus far, Pie Speaker is charged with
using bis position for the overthrow of the
priacipie OF protection. They believe the re
peal Of the tariff would be disa ,trous to pros
perity; and so believing, it is not remark able
that the people Of the State should not feel in
clined to kiss the hand that smites them.
The same article in the Chr0RicLs says that
Senator SCorT's friends assert that he does not
intend to be a candidate "uness the convention
manifest disposition in his favor" Of course
not. Senator SCoTT, 81 far from being a fool,
Is very shrewd, as we'll as very able aad true,
man. The Chronicle il therefore quite safe in
saying he won't be "a candidate if he discovers
that be has no strength IN the convention. Az
any rate, and under any circumstances, he is
not the man to make himself a cand date and
attempt TO force himself upon sac convention
But we have no doubt that he considers himself
in the hands Of the r epub ican party, and that
il the nomination for Vice Presidency is ten
dered him he will accept it. Whether he be
presented as the choice OF the Pennsylvania
Republicans or not, it is pretty clear that they
will select some man for tho honor who is not
in favor of repeating the duty on coal, iron,

raj products.

The crimes which the rebel Democracy and
their sorehead Republican associates lay to the
door Of General GRANT are that be has grown
rich out Of his position that he has accepted
q large number of "coatly presents" and that
he has appointed twenty five Of his relations to
Office since he became President. These are
the three specific charges with which they 60
before the people aud demand verdict of
gully. Trivial and selfevidsntly false as they
all are. the New York Times has been at the
pains Of investigating each one of them, and
the result of its labors is that they are one and
all, "jointly and severally," grossly and wick.
eddy untrue. The Times begins with the ac-
count that he has grown rich out Of his Office,
and states that from careful inquiries it has
ascertained that outside of his official salary
bis income does not exceed six thousand dol
lars year. His primo. pal property is his farm
of six or seven hundred acres near st. Louis,
part Of which was inherited by Mrs. GRANT.
The rest was bought by General GRANT from
the other heirs with the money given him by
citizens Of New York long before he was even
a candidate for President
The Copperhsad charge that that farm or his
house at Long Branch were given to him is
utterly false. Since he became President, as
We stated some weeks ago, he has not received
q single dollar in presents from any one. He
owns some valuable lots in Chicago bought
with his salary as Major General. but which
have been unproductive. This, with small
amount Of horse.rairoad stock, and house in
Philadelphis which he lets, constructs his
entire wealth. This disposes of two of the
charges; and the third, that he had appointed TO
Office twenty Ave Of his relatives is shown to be
quite as destitute OF foundation. The Times
goes over the list seriatim and disposes of the
twenty-fv cases one after another. Out
Of the list it ascertains that t,oslve Of the
