Indiana Greenback Party.


INDIANAPOLIS, Jnly 2s.-The Chairman
of the Indiana Greenback State Central
Committee issues the report that came from
Washington to the effect that the Green
back party of Indiana will support
Tilden and Hendricks if the House
repeals the resumption act and
says that in no event will the Independ-

their own State ticket at all hazards, be-
lieving that they can carry the State. The

Another Muddle.

Suppose that the election be thrown
into the House of Representatives.
Under the Twelfth Amendment of the
Constitution the House would choose
the President, the Senate the Vice Pres
ident.
The choice would be confined to the
parties named by the Electoral College.
The House, which has an anti-Repub-
ican majority sufficiently large for the
purpose, would, of course, elect Tilden.
The majority of the Senate is Repub-
lican, and would prefer to elect Wheeler,
but would it not be compelled to choose
Hendricks?
Tilden and Wheeler are residents OF
New York.
The Twelfth Amendment provides
that " the Electors shall meet in their re-
spective States and vote by ballot for
President and Vice-President, one Of
whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant
of the same State with themselves"
Would not Congress therefore, be com.
PEELED TO choose President and Vice
President from different States?
The Senate could not make its choice
first, and thus forestall the action of the
House, for the Constitution provides
that the election failing by the usual
means "The House of Representative
shall choose Immediately, by ballot, the
President"
The Senate would be restricted in the
choice of Vice-President to Wheeler and
Hendricks, for I" if no person have 8
majority, then from the two highest
numbers on the list the Senate shall
choose the Vice-President"
Suppose the House chooses Tilden
President, the Senate Wheeler Vice
President, how are we to get over the
difficulty about both these gentlemen
being inhabitants of the same State?
The Senate would have to give way.
1t would still be Tilden and Hen
bricks.

Let the Truth be Told.
cincinnati Enquirer.l

We are told that the Democrats only
carried Mississippi by fraud and intim-
idation of the colored voters, and that,
therefore, they should not complain of
the Republicans of Louisiana and other
States taking advantage of their position
to count in Hayes. They also claim that
the very fact of voter being colored is
evidence of his being Republican. To
show that all their theories are based on
false assumptions, we here reproduce the
letter of Rev. Revels-the first colored
man who ever occupied seat in the
United States Senate-to President
Grant Oh the election in Mississippi in
1875. He said:
The bitterness and hate created by the late
civil strife has, in my opinion, been obliter.
ated in this State, except perhaps in some To-
calities, and would have been entirely OBJ
liberated were it not for some unprincipled
men who would keep alive the bitterness of
the past and inculcate a hatred between the
two races in order that they may aggrandize
themselves by Office and its emoluments.
Since reconstruction the masses of my
people have been, as it were, enslaved in
mind, by unprincipled adventures, who,
caring nothing for the country, were willing
to stoOp to anything, no matter how infa.
nous, to secure power to themselves and
perpetuate it, . A great portion of
them have learned that they were being used
as mere tools, and in the late election, not
being able to correct the existing evil among
themselves, they determined by casting
their ballots against these unprncipled
adventures to overthrow them. 8 9 Ny
people have been told by these schemers,
when men were placed upon the ticket who
were notoriously corrupt and dishonest, that
they must vote for them that the salvation
of the party depended upon it; that the
man who scratched the ticket was not
Republican, This 10 only one of the
many means these pnprineiplsd demsgogues
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-11-23

have devised to perpetuate the intellectual
bondage of my people. To defeat this
policy at the late election, men, irre-
spective OF race, color or party affiliation,
united, and voted together against these
men known to be incompetent and dishon-
est | cannot recognize, nor do the mass of
my people who read, recognize the majority
of the officials who have been in power forthe
past two years as Republicans. We do not
believe that Republicanism means corrup-
ton, theft and embezzlement. These three
offenses have been prevalent among great
portion of our officer.holders; to them must
be attributed the defeat of the Republican
party in this State, if defeat there was; but
l, with all the lights before me; look upon it
as the uprising of the people, the whole
people, to crush out corrupt men and rings
from power.
That letter very honestly tells the
whole story. The more intelligent and
honest of the colored voters, seeing that
salvation could come only through the
Democratic party, voted for the candi-
dates of that party, and elected them
with the aid of the whites. That is the
way in which the Democratic tickets in
nearly all of the Southern States have
succeeded in the recent elections. That
is the reason only, barring a dishonest
count, they have all succeeded in this
election,

Driven From his Pulpit for Voting the
Democratic Ticket.
baltimore Gazette

tdLetteI
The Rev. R. ii. Robinson, pastor of
the Orchard Street NJ. E. Church (col-
ored) recently went into his pulpit at
the customary hour for the purpose of
delivering his regular Sunday morning
sermon. A preconcerted plan for his
ejectment had, however, evidently been
arranged, and his arrival was the occasion
of great excitement. Many of his con-
gregation rose to their feet at his en-
trance, and others abruptly left the
church. The building will accommodate
about five hundred persons, and was
crowded to its utmost capacity. The
news of the difficulty had evidently been
anticipated by the colored people who
live in the neighborhood, and the street
in front of the church was thronged by a
dusky crowd, eager to testify by any
lawless act their devotion to their de-
feated party. Many of them hurled inn
precautions unfit for publication against
the pastor, and others called upon the
police to eject him from the church.
Officer Flannery, who was present, did
his utmost to euell the tumult, which
did not subside until Mr.. Robinson
withdrew in the interest of peace, and
was subsequently escorted home by the
officer above mentioned. He afterward
secured the keys of the church and re-
tanned them in his possession, with the
intention of admitting no one into the
edifce until he heard from his Presiding
Elder. The police state the difficulty
originated with white man living in
the neighborhood, who is well-known
Republican, and who has, by his inflam-
matory remarks, melted the negroes to
this outrage.
Some weeks ago q colored preacher
who filled the pulpit for Mr.. Robinson,
made use in his sermon of the expression,
eff any member of this congregation in
tends voting the Democratic ticket, he
ougt to be hanged"
At the close of his remarks Mr..
Robinson arose and said he did not think
such an expression of opinion suitable
one to emanate from the pulpit, and he
did not desire p repetition of it. The
congregation, which is largely composed
of an ignoront class of negroes, became
very much incensed at this very proper
suggestion of their pastor, and requested
him to resign the charge. He refused to
do so, and hence the trouble yesterday.
Mr.. Robinson is man of intelligence
and education, is remarkably popular as
preacher, and has, since taking charge
of Orchard Street, built up the church
so that it now has congregation out
numbering any colored church in the
city. He numbers among his friends
many of the most respectable <and we'll
known citizens of Baltimore, and has
never used one word of political argu-
ment in his pulpit. He has two sons
who have labored for the organization
of colored Democratic clubs during the
late campaign, but has himself never
expressed an opinion, politically, un-
called for.

Coloring Human Hair on Eating

The much vexed question, how to get
gold hair, is solved at last. While the
German shrink from being held fair
haired nation, who knows, but the
sufferers, what other nations have gone
through to win the hair despised by
Prussia? Ladies have borne unheard of
torments in pursuit of this fictitious gold.
One who had to be turned round in the
sun for hours during the process bore
with stole fortitude the terrible head
aches involved each week, nor ever COM
planned of what she had 10 pay, though,
after all, she was scarcely even electro
plated. Some run other risks, in robbing
Teuton corpses of their long fair locks

remain to give the lie to hair. Now, no
more dyes, migraines or wigs will be

"glad gold hair nay, blue eyes, too,

do is to go and live on an island,
and the more you eat the fairer

without the island would be of no avail, }
but the slight inconvenience of same

by the votaries of fashion. A survivor
writes: "The eggs did every one a
great deal of good. A most
remarkable thing was that every one had
fair skins and light hair, dark faces and
hair being quite changed, black hail
turning brown or red, and fairer people
