politics to create bad blood, but they
cannot afford to be idle spectators OF
the sacrifice Of all that Emancipation
achieved, nor will they be. As they rose
up against border ruf1ianism in Kansas, SC
they will spring up against the same
villainous spirit now manifesting itsell
against the colored people of the South
There is loud call in the attitude of the
old slave masters in the South towards the
negroes, for the old guard of the republi-
can party to buckle on their armor again
and 90 forth earnestly and seriously into
the political conflicts impending. There
must be no letting down of republican
maiorities. Maine must speak for JUS
tice, for civil and political equality for
the negro, as she spoke for right and
freedom when Kansas was saved from
the doom of slavery. The republican par.
tv will not have fulfilled the mission its
oricinators marked out until the rights
of the colored men are fully secured
There is good cause why every re
publican should be active. The 14th ol
September is close at hand. What VIC
do we must be done quickly. And what
we should do is to roll up vote that
the madmen of the South enlisted in the
war against the blacks will understand
to mean that the republican party is in
earnest, and will oppose all combinations
founded on color exclusively for the
overthrow of the rights secured to the
negro race.

lished the details of the deliberations. 1t is
understood that another schedule Of rates
will be prepared. One theory which pre-
walls in well.informed circles is that some
changes will be made go as to cover the trans
portation of the new crops. The present rail-
road freights are very low. 1t is expected
that the farmers and spectators in the West
will move the crops eastward at the earliest
possible moment, in order to take advantage
of the low rates. The railroad managers an
ticipate this, and it is suggested that they in
tend to raise the rates SO as TO cover the first
shipments this way.

TROUBLES IN THE SOUTH.

The outbreaks occurring in the South are
more important for what they indicate
than for the local results attending them.
Murders and mobs occurring here and
there in the northern States create no par
ticular concern outside of the localities in
which they happen. They are not caused
by any wide-reaching influence, but are
the effect of momentary passion or short
lived dissatisfaction affecting but small
circle of individuals. But in the South
the case is very different. There the out
RACES committed have similar origin and
purpose. They spring from hatred of the
whites to the blacks, and their intent is the
crowding down of the colored people as
near the plane of slavery as possible.
The difficulty is general and deep. What
we witness at Charleston to-day, or saw at
Vicksburg or Austin but few days ago,
are the results of causes at work all over
the South, wherever black and white are
found In the same communities.
The recen: action of democratic conven-
tons in some Of the southern States in
putting into their platforms the race issue,
the union of the whites against the blacks,
is fact of weighty import, step of ter
rible responsibility, before which the dis
orders that have occurred thus far are of
but small consequence. kn-Kuxism as
an isolated, Independent organization was
bad enough, but adopted openly into dem
ocratic platforms, as it is when the race
issue is engrafted upon them, its power
for wickedness is increased immensely.
The horrors that may come from such a
course are fearful to think of. If riots
and murders multiply in the South let
those who are pushing the negro to ex-
tremity because OF his politics look to it
and prepare to answer for their part in the
matter.
There has been no election held in the
South this season without disturbance be-
tween whites and blacks. The fault in all
such eases is invariably attributed by
the democratic sources of intelligence
through which we learn them to the blood
thirsty negroes but, wonderful to relate,
the poor negros are always the greatest
sufferers in the encounters which they are
accused of bringing on! The innocent
whites who are marked for butchery turn
out TO be the butchers! A hundred negroes
are shot down in a riot and not a white
man killed, but word is sent abroad that
the negroes were entirely TO blame, and
went into the fray well armed while the
whites were without arms and as peacea-
BILE as lambs This is mockery Of the
worst kind. 1t may have deceived in
times past but can deceive no longer.
The outrages committed upon the negroes
of the South will never be known A few
detached facts oil the great mass come to
our knowledge from which we are left to
infer the reality. If the true story of only
the recent elections could be told we i'm
agine it would move the North with a
mightier impulse than that which swayed
1t at the period of the Kansas Nebraska
outrages.
The republicans OF the North have
hoped to see the races in the South living
together in amity, with no distinctions in

Death of Il Centeaarian.

THE LAST DAYS of A WOMAN WHO HAD
LIVED ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN
YEARS.
Mrs. Ellen Lyon died in the residence
Of her son, Thomas Lyon, No. 81 West
Forty eighth street, yesterday at the age
Of one hundred and thirteen years. She
was born Mt Eddenderry, Kings county,
Ireand, in l7G1, and was married to Mat
thew Lyon, of county Westmeath, in 1893.
In 1892 the family came to this country.
and from that time they have lived in
this city, where Mr.. Lyon died in 1854,
aged ninety years.
Until within five years Mrs. Lyon at
tended morning Mass regularly in st.
Peters Church, and was frequently on
the steps of st. Peters before anybody
else. She was not afraid to walk in the
streets alone, believing ns she did, that
God would take care OF her. The police
men oil knew her, and the people who
live in that part of the city, and who at
tended the same place of worship did not
let her want for escort nor for want OF
aid In climbing the steps of the church:
Last Thursday Mrr. Lyon was as well
and strong as usual. She ate hearty
meal in the middle of the day, and made
no complaint until night. At about. 10
O. clock, when the serveant entered her
IOohiy DIG bbiet Liisit oCnth ~ PSAA AANA
but as she had frequently said the same
thing before, the serveant laughed, and
said she was good for thirty years yet.
A half hour later Mr.. Lyons daughter,
went to her grandmother room and
found her very feeble and breathing with
difficulty. A physician was summoned,
and he said that there were no symptoms
of disease, but that the old lady was liza
BILE to die from exhaustion of her vital
powers at any moment.
On Friday Mrs. Lyon apparently re-
covered from this attack, and for the
next three days all her faculties were
stronger than they had been for some
years, though she still repeated her as
sertion that death was upon her. In hel
last hours she talked freely with friends
and inquired with much interest about
those who were absent. Five minutes be.
fore her death she asked for her beads.
She died quietly and easily, and wher
she had passed away the relic of a bygone
! age looked like child in slumber
Hardly wrinkle marked the well round

TRIAL. OF AN ILLEGAL voTER-HELD FOR
COURT.
Before Mayor Simms, this morning,
George Bundy, COL, was tried on a
charge of voting Illegally in the Ninth
Ward, during the election, yesterday.
The charge was preferred by Martin
Farrell, who testified to seeing the man
vote in the Ninth Ward. Other wit
nesses proved that Bundy resided in the
Eighth Ward, and that he voted in the
Ninth Ward because he was told to do
so. The accused was held to bail in
the sum of $500, to answer the charge
at the next term of Court.
The other negroes, who were arrested
yesterday afternoon are still confined
in the City Hall cells. They will be
given hearing this evening. One of
them who gave his name as Joseph Tad
and tried to vote in the Tenth Ward on
this name was visited by friend, this
morning who addressed him as "Joe
Stokely," which the prisoner admitted
was his right name.
The prisoners are all penitent and
deeply regret the blind obedience to
the Ring-mastcrs, which brought them
into such trouble. 1t is severe lesson
but it will have salutary effect upon
them.
