. The Chicago papers, like those of New
York and other. cities are .very much
given to the habit OF publishing the most
enormous and hagrant falsehoods one day
and contradicting them the next This
they call enterprise. When they confine
themselves to politicians, gamblers, race
horses and other objects incapable of SEN
sibility, they do no great harm to any
body or thing, except their own reputation.
The Chicago Times not long ago devoted
page to a report of a suposititious FIRE
of extraordinary dimensions, in which
about one hundred and fifty of the lead
ing citizens of Chicago were remorselessly
sacrificed. The next day it playfully con-
tessed it was joke, and rather congratu-
lated itself upon its superior mendacity.
Among other brilliant pranks it soon after
published the public debt Of this State at
some sixty-fve OF seventy millions, but
crawfshed as soon as the REPUBLICAN ex-
posed the falsehood As it must do some
ltAS uouD1Cu tIC dCpt
of Chicago, and rated the assessed value
Of real estate at considerably less than
half what il really is. The Tribune ad-
ministered prompt castigetion, when it
dropped the subject and began new inyen-
tions.
The Journal, however, with much less
feeling, and entirely without wit, pub
lished sensational report that Mrs. Lin
coin is not at all insane, but is Kept in
restraint at Batavia for no sufficient rea-
son. One OF the reporters pretended that
DR.. Patterson had signed certificate that
she would be able to visit Springfield with
out danger of harm, but that it'had been
withheld from her. Upon the appearance
of this scandalous sensation, number OF
reporters rushed out to Batavia, and
found that there was no truth in the
Journals story. DR.. Patterson had OBJ
served that under certain circumstances the
patient might possibly be permitted to
visit q relative, though no formal request
for certificate had been made.
Yet the flaming and exciting announce
ment was published that the lady was en-
tirely sane, and subjected to the most
tyIannical and cruel treatment All the
Chicago world believed the wicked fabri-
cation for twelve hours, and the paper is
supposed 10 have met with large sale.
The other papers, having no motive to
propagate this particular falsehood,
promptly took steps to contradict it, and
for once made as much money by being
virtuous and truthful as the rival sheet
had in being vicious and mendacious.

ana to beslege the city OF New Orleans.
The Reprblican almosts, adopts the i'm
preston Of that paper in Germany which
announced that "Pinchback had formed
a junction with Warmoth, and their
joint forces We're marching on Washing
ton CITY," The Republican, however,
thinks the whites can hold the city:
TIE business of the city will always be
in The hands of the whites, and rs they
already largely outnumber the blacks, they
will no doubt, be able to maintain their
shall have secured possession OF the State.
Now, long before this siege is COM
menced the white people Of Louisiana,
seeing that the suffrage Of the colored peo-
pie is a fixed and immutable institution,
will compete among themselves who shall
have it. Once assured OF division among
the whites, the demand for colored votes
will place that suffrage beyond danger,
and each party of the whites will defend
its colored voters as they would white
voters
We have explained why this immigra-
tion Of laborers into Louisiana is in
evitable and irresistible 1t is the only
labor which has ever been able to endure
continually the heat and diseases Of this
climate. Crozat and John Law both
fitted out ships for Africa, and sold the
imported negroes to the colonists at
nominal prices. Why was this, when
white settlers cost nothing? Because the
European constitution was inadequate to
the heavy clearing, levee building and
crop culture. The importation OF this
foreign labor continued to some extent
after the annexation of Louisiana, and
then assumed large proportions by do
mestic transfer Of negroesfrom the
Eastern Atlantic States to those of
the Gulf. There were 34,6G0 slaves in
Louisiana in 1910. There were IN 1860
33l, 726. AS the nominal increase of
Southern slaves doubled every twenty
three and half years, the stock should
have amounted, in 1860, to about one
hundred and forty thousand. 1t was,
however, 33l, 726; then the increase, by
migration, was 191, ,726. Does any one
suspect that this migration of labor from
States where it is worth less to States
where it is worth more will cease? The
same law will continue to operate, but
the whites, seeing the great value of this
element, will change their tactics, and
instead of attempting to arrest or ami
hilate il, will acquire its confidence, i'm
prove its capacity, and devote every
effort to make them good citizens.
1t is useless to attack either the census
or the negroes. A principle is at work
which, whether aided by the intolerance
of the White Leaguers or not, will attract
a preponderance of negroes to Louisiana.
We have no fear of any conflict or political
collision between the races. There will
be no changes in the social relations OF the
races beyond an increased kindness, but
there will be division and interchange of
votes and interests which will make the
race relations far mofe cordial and profit
able to both than at present.

OUR POPULATION.

The st. Louis Republscan, which is
nothing. unless oracular, settles with o
few strokes of the pen the political and in
dustrial future Of Louisiana. 1t says:
But If the blsck race shall maintain the
present superior rate of increase for five
years longer, the census Of 1880 will demon
strate their possession Of the Stateso clearly
that the whites themselves will be forced to
c0ncede it. T
For some inexplicable purpose the
Republican insists that there is state of
war between the races in Louisiana, and
adds: s,4
In that event the whites will probably

THE FLAG ABROAD.

While we have citizens who "dearly
love lord, and think the United States
p oor place to live in compared with the
princely parks through whose iron rail-
ings some of them have been permitted to
poke their noses while on European
tour, the people of Europe seensto es-
TEEN our country and its inhabitants more
favorably. Colonel Gildersleeve in re-
cent speech descriptive of the manner in
which the American rife team was re-
ceived in Ireland, says:
Doors were opened to us. and public
buildings, theatres, and opera houses, and
when we entered, the audience arose anG
greeted US with such cheers as only Irish
men can give. And the bt autiful notes of
the "Star Spangled Banner" tloated on the
air. [Applause.] And only those who have
heard 1t abroad know how to appreciate
those patriotic strains. American citizen
ship was passport upon every steamship
line and upon every railroad, and when
they saw any member of the party the
crowds that assembled in the street and in
the public thoroughfares we're SO great that
we had at times to resort to carriages in
order to escape to our hotels. where we
were SO successfully entertained. And this
was exceedingly gratifying to US. We
knew that these compliments, that these
great receptions were due to us az citizens
of the United States and not as individuals,
and that we were there in a small way as
representatives of the United States. We
are very proud that the people on every
hand received us as representatives of the
United States, and that they desired to
compliment our country through US was q

ceived we endeavored to receive on behalf
of our native land.
After all our domestic quarrels, this
speaker was right. 1t is only those who
have looked to that flag in foreign land
who know that it is believed to have a
country powerful, progressive and re-
spected. 1t is to be hoped that oil will in
due time adopt the same appreciation,
and if one can not feel much enthusiasm
for flag or motto, all will at least ac-
knowledge the value Of a nationality
ssrong enough to protect life and prop
erty at home and to compel respect for
the private rights of its citizens abroad.
The anti-Republican press has ridiculed
the idea Of the government demanding
satisfaction Of Tripoli for an insult offered
an American officer, for the reason of
alleged insignifcance in the man who was
insulted. 1t matters not to us who is the
American, what ore his politics or
what his complexion, If he arrived from
foreign country long enough ago to have
