National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-08-25

WE have received earnest evidence Of
the sympathy of the business men Of the
District for US in our temporary troubles
occasioned By the ''strike" of the printers
Formerly in our employ. This is all the
more gratifying because it is invariably
accompanied by voluntary expressions of
IN opinion that the 'fstrike" was unjusti-
fable. five had attempted to supply the
places of our employees without giving
Them any previous warning-if we had, in
Ehort, 'faken the bread out of their mouths"
with perciless disregard of their flu
lure, or of the future of their families
we would have been liable to censure.
AS it is, the union is censured because it
as been guilty of ordering Strike" upon
without giving us any previous notice
Ne are satisfied to go before the public on
his record, and only regret that in doing
70 we are compelled to expose the treachery
bof the union.

TIE condition of affairs in New

THE condition of affairs in New York
must indeed be deplorable. The NUM-
cipal authorities being Democratic, and
owing their authority to their popularity
with the criminal classes, the administra.
lion of justice is extremely lax. Life and
property are insecure, and the police off.
Gals either corrupt or inefficient With
Characteristic reckless disregard of the re-
sponsibility of its party for this unfortunate
situation, the World continues to advocate
lynch law as recognized Democratic
specific, by printing sllch paragraphs as
the following7
The gentlemanly-a appearing young man ,
who shot down pickpocket in a lumber yard
ct Ninth avenue and Fifteenth street Saturday
afternoon, was, we presume, citizen goaded
into committing desperate deed by the refec-
tion that an appeal to the police would prove
Intellectual, and who thought that as lynch
law is becoming daily more necessary 1t would
do no harm for some one to begin its admin
istration." : 8 tx. -.....s

"PRIDE goeth before destruction, and
ga naughty spirit before fall, 4" is an ap.
propriste apothegm to apply to the present
condition of the so-called workingmen's
,horgan' in this city. The printers con.
tributed freely for the purpose Of estab-
fishing it, and are disappointed now to find
that it is Unavailable to render any benefit
70 them. In fact it is an injury to them,
because its control has passed into the
hands of selfish clique, who use it for the
purpose of melting unjustif&ble strikes If
they were not possessed of natural, though
mistaken pride in its existence, Simply be.
cause it is creation of their own, they
would withdraw their support from 1t in
stsntly. 1t is a proftless investment, in
which money they might otherwise devote

heir families, is wickedly wasted. The
sid up stock of the concern is offered on

Iollar, and no takers

great that thousands upon thousands Of
white men became infatuated with the
delusien that a real cause of dan
ger existed. II Is this delusion which
psoyes ADORE an things the enmity Of the
whites 70 Them, for they would not be
mii1ed By 4 II the kindly feeling between
the races dsscfibed by the Zfi6rns really
exisled This b the delusion. also. which
the 1rt3sns editorialiy endorses asa solemn
fact But Il was fatal delusion 10 the
blacks Inspired a. It sas by desire to
oppress them, It's results have been to close
the doors Of half dozen county jaiis upon
the ambitious and initiative colored leaders,
while hundreds of innocent followers have
been hunted in the swamps and forests,
and, for aught we know to the contrary,
murdered.
To sum the whole matter up, the Geor-
gia Democrats have succeeded In nipping
in the bud an attempt on the part Of few
ignorant, though patriotic, negroes to as
sert their rights as citizens by organizing
themselves into political association. This
is result which the Tribune declares is
due to 'the calmness and discretion of
Governor Smith, and to general respect
"for law and order, no less than to that
"kindly feeling between the better class OF
men in either race" What mockery
What an insult to the intelligence of the
newspaper-reading publicl But above
all, what infamous moral and political de-
bauchery that allows such barefaced mis-
use of the sacred power and influence of
journalism! viii the Tribune deny our
assertion that, if the "kindly feeling to
which it alluded really existed, the whites
would aid their uncultured fellow citizens
in the exercise of those rights regarding
which they are ignorant or instruct them
how to manage their political affairs, or, at
least, refrain from interfering with their
peaceful efforts to initiate the example of
white exemplars

auspices, promised that the New Virginia
would soon march In advance of the Old Vir-
ginia, and. emancipsted from the domination
of old political barnacies, go forward IN mate
rial development counensurate with her
boundless resources. Our own beautiful val
her varied affiuences and beautiful and pic
turesque scenery, witnessed upon every stage
coach that rolled its wheels along its public
highways, wealth and population seeking I'M
vestment lands wereE IN demand at high
prices-our minerals were sought-our water
power purchased, and everything seemed to
Indicate that future Of unparalleled prosper
ity awaited us.
But soon the evil DAYS came upon US. The
old retired politicians, the partisan marplots,
who had been showed out of the way by this
healthy, live spirit Of progress, or been made
to yield TO its influence, began to come to the
front, to infiame the passions of the war, ex-
cite sectional feeling and hatred, and By APP
pealing to the lowest prejudices Of our nature,
and inaugurating system of prosecution and
prescription, finally succeeded in resuming
control of the State, and from that day to this
the tide of prosperity has receded, until now
universal prostration is our inheritance. Many
of those who have been lured here by our
solemn promises and the munifcent endow-'
ments Of nature, have turned their backs upon
us and the intolersnt partisan spirit that they
calities, not near so inviting intrinsically, but
where they can enjoy unmolested their opin-
Ions upon public questions and public policy
without being stigmatized as "carpetbaggerg'
and negrophilists, and prescribed as unworthy
of social recognition.
In their insane zeal for the attainment Of
party ends and the consummation of selfish
schemes, the political demagogues have lost
sight Of the interests Of the people and the pro-
Eress ofthe State and have sacrificed everything
70 the accomplishment of party ascendency.
They have gained their point in this respect,
but at what terrible cost to the unsuspecting
masses And how have they used the power
thus achieyedl Where are the assets of the
State, left us at the close of the wari Where
are the revenues of the State drawn from the
scanty pockets of the peoplei Where is the
credit of the State, which they promised to
preserve? All gone, and nothing to show for
them.
Let the people calmly reflect over the pic
ture we have drawn, and ask themselves at
their fresides if this is not sadly true. When
they have satisfied themselves upon this point,
let them inquire into the benefits that have
been meted out to them, for following the
lead of the miserable demagogues, who shrink
from the fair discussion of every public ques-
ton, and have but one argument to urge when
asking for popular Endorsement, and that Is
''nigger niger 2"
The people cannot much longer close their
eyes to the deceptious, cruel and ruinous, that
have been practiced upon them. They must
see that the leaders of the party in power in
this State care for nothing but the "hesh
pot" and they will recklessly sacrifice every
other interest to the attainment of their selfish
and corrupt ends.

organization of the ''true Republican party

eminent and their purpose to throw the State
in harmony with the progressiye spirit Of the
age-when these promises were freely and un-
reservedly population poured into cur
borders. Richmond, Norfolk, Petersburg,
Portsmouth, felt the magic power Of Northern
capital; their desolated, districts were embel-
lisbed by imposing structures, large business
houses were established, and an era of pros
perity was inaugurated never before known to

THE government Office printers court an
Investigation into the economy of the
work done by them under the rules of the
union. Their desire will be gratlfied and
they may be assured that the representa-
tives of the people will take steps to pro-
vide for reduction of wages now paid by
the Government Printer. As the matter
now stands the governmentpays an extrlva-
giant price to union printers for work that
non union men offer to do cheaper. Con-
gress will not dare to disregard this fact any
more than it would dare to approve of the
building of Kanawha canal locks by the
highest bidder when better and lower rates
could be obtained from other bidders.

THE history of the invitation extended to
JEFF Davis to deliver an address at the
Rockville Qn.,) fair, explodes the idea
that the design of it was directly intended
to honor him, although it must be appar-
ent that the result would have indirectly
accomplished that object. The managers
simply wanted speaker who would
"draw," and that they were not particu-
lar either about his morals OF politics is
evidenced by the fact that they first in
Vited Theodore Tilton. JEFF may not
feel complimented at this, but Tiltoa will
have no reason to complain.

HEREToFoRE the Typographical Union,
No. 1O1, has enjoyed the respect of the
entire community for the honorable and
business like character of its dealings with
individuals and the public. 1t has now
forfeited all claim to that respect by dis.
honorably ordering strike of the "down-
town" printers without giving their EN-.
ployers moments warning. The treach-
erous character of this strike Is at once sp-
parent when it is explained that SO far as
this offce is concerned, no change cal.
culated to effect the interests of the union
printers has ever been attempted without
timely warning having been previously
given.

they are entitled to bear arms, and to do
everything In legitimate way that their
white fellow-citizens are In the habit of
doing. When they attempt this, however,
they are confronted with determined op-
position. The same spirit which inspires
their Acknowledgement through the illegal
operation of the poll-tax, shows itself in
demonstrations to intimidate them and pre-
vent them from holding public meetings.
They are Republicans from conviction.
They have but few white leaders,
to instruct them regarding their political
faith and being ignorant of the customs
and forms Of political organizations they
make awkward attempts to establish asso-
Citations for political purposes. There are
so few carpet baggersp in the State that
even the Tribune does not dare to aseribe
their Repubiicanisn TO anything but q sin
cere and -unaided conviction. Being Re-
publicans they are denounced as Radicals
and are consequently subjected to the de-
nunciatienf Of such eminent Democratic

icalism must be stamped OUT The whites
who accept Mr.. Hills declaration as law
proceed TO stamp 1t out by means Of the in.

by forcibly preventing them from enjoying

enjoyment Of this right was what they
sought when the late cry ofsanegro uinsur-
