Fred. Douglass talked right out to
the colOred people the other day
even about their sacred preachers.
He said
'Their preachers tell them more
about what to do and less about what
to feel. They should cultivate their
brains more aud their lungs less.
They should not depend upon being
helped, but should do for them
selves. He was tired of Ethiopia
holding out her hands. They should
not depend upon the Lord for every
thing. The Lord is good and kind,
but is of the most use to those who
do for themselves.

"Any effort to portray his elo-

would be doing injustice. The spell

Of the power of speech and elo-
quence which is dealt out to few

Of orator, but rather of that class
which uneonsciously gives forth the

Secretary Sherman on Ohio
Politics.

FOIIElGSe
The Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Times gives the fol-
lowing:
In reply to a question by your
correspondent whether the order Of
the President forbidding Federal
officials to take part in political con
ventiOns, or engage in political work,
would not weaken the Republican
party in Ohio, by taking off the State
committee men drilled in political
warfare, Secretary Sherman said
very emphatically, in his judgment
it would have just the contrary
effect.
The Ohio Republican State com
mittee needed new blood very mueb,.
and the party would be stronger after
getting nd of the members holding
Federal offices, who were responsible
for the manner in which the cam
paigns in the past had been mis-
managed. The infusion of a new
element now would inspire the party
with confidence. The moro he had
thought over this matter the stronger
convinced was he that the Presi-
dents order was just all right, and
that if the Republicans in Ohio had
taken action some time ago and re
fused to allow any person holding q
Federal office to serve on the State
committee, there would be better
organization. The Secretary was so |
severe in his criticism of Federal
officials managing election cam
paigns, that it was impossible to
think otherwise than that he was
thinking of his own protege, R. H. |
Stephenson, and the manner in
which the campaign was conducted /
in Hamilton county last year.

We cordially endorse all that the
Register says in regard to the emf
nent merits and faithful services OF
Col Brown, and are glad to learn
that he has not positively refused to
accept denomination under any
circumstances. We are satisfied
that he is the strongest Republican
in the district, and that his nomina-
ton would be equivalent to an cleo
ton; and we would not have thought
Of suggesting any other candidate if
we had not supposed he had def
initely decided not to run again. In
a conversation with him last Friday,
we were gratifed to learn that the
statement of the Register is correct,
and that while he does not desire the
Office, and would personally prefer
private life, yet if the Republicans Of
the district insist that it is his duty
to run, he would not feel at liberty
to decline. We therefore second the
Registers motion, that Col. Brown
be unanimously re-nominated, and
we have no doubt the Senatorial
Convention will heartily respond to
the wishes of the people.
