-sometlmesl IN arms-Dy prejudice.
When the RAIDS claimed to have
set them free it was false. God
alone was to be praised for it, and
his watchful providence would pre-
serve them in their freedom. The
Democratic party had afforded to
them that protection which the
Republican party had failed to give.
If the Republicans had lied to
them, why did they continue to
trust them? He wished to see
them enter upon the high road to
prosperity. Bnt they could not en-
ter upon it if they supported In
dependents, for they were towards
and would desert them as they had
always done. Make them coine out
squarely.
The Republican party was re-
sponsible for the general depres-
sion in the country and the great
lack of money. In the North the
Republican party is composed of
the aristocratic and wealthy, while
in the South it is composed almost
entirely of the negroes, with here
and there a mean white man for a
leader. In the North the million
aires were the Republican leaders
such men as Conkling with his
million, and from him up to Van
derbildt with his hundred million
OF dollars, who was able almost to
buy an entire State. In the North
and West the working men are the
rank and file of the Democratic
party, and in the South it is COM
posed of all the best people of the
land. In the West the working
men have risen in their might to
throw of the shackles of the roney
kings, and it is the high privilege
and duty of the coloredl man to

The great political question that
agitates the country JUS: now is
B.ajr's Maryland resolutions TO re,
move Hayes from the Presidential
chair. If the proper legal steps are
taken, We would have about as
much hope Of seeing the FrauI
broke from his Office, g. We had in
the decision Of the + ectorai Com.
mission, when the matter was sub.
mittcd to them. People who have
much to say about establishing a
dangerous precedent in permitting
Hayes to retain his Office must
have great confidence in the s,abil.
ity OF this government. Its pcrpe
tuity is i%mminently endangered By
more than one dangerous prece.
dent, and the mere seating Of a
man in the Presidential chair IS a.
mong the least Of them.
We don't care, however, how
much the Fraud is trammclled, pro,
vided the steps taken to Gust him
do not interfere with the success Of
the Democratic party in 1850. Mr..
Blair declares be Is not working
for Mr.. TiIden, and we have con.
Guided he is working for Mr. Blair.
We have no objection Hendricks
and Blair are s very good pair, one
that would unite the West and tue
South, and we could then tell New
York and the East to set up Con.
kiln or Blaine 70 succeed q Fraud
they helped to make. There Ger.
talnly woull be no quibbling over
the verdict. .
