tuition are already ynullified in the South. 1t
declares it to be a shame that any man
in the North countenances this most
internal scoundrelism. The murderous
masters of Mississippi demand that jeff.
Davis, their real leader, shall be sent to the
Senate. He is soon to be there and will
rule the caucus that Mr.. Ewing obeys. 1t
declares it to be important to Mr.. Ewings
party that Southern murder should be sup
pemented by Northern fraud, hence the
cry about the Supervisors Law.
The Gazette speaking of the Republican
situation in New York, says that Conkling
placed his own domination first, and the
success of the party second. 1t thinks that
there is no charge against Mr.. CornelPs IN
tegrity, and none against the fairness OF his
nomination, and so the whole party ap-
pears to recognize it to be its duty to sup
port him.-Referring to Ewing's answer to
Schurz and Sherman. it says: And what
does Gen. Ewing propose to the workman?
That the purchasing power OF his wage
dollar shall sink; that it shall each
day buy less and less of food for
his family, and that he shall enter
upon conflict to get even for this de-
probation, and following this, shall be
thrown out of work by that prostratlon
which the inevitable reaction and appreci'
alton brings Is not the man with such a
scheme the widest candidate that was ever
presented for the suffrages Of people r.
The Gazette declares that an "inevitable
issue is before the American people in the
Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitu-
ton" 1t says that the right of free suf-
frage is denied to citizens OF the Southern
,>f thoir on1nr
previous condition of servitude." 1t
urges that this is general, not exceptional.
1t is the settled organized policy of the
dominant Democratic party of the South,
and sustained by the Democratic party Of
the North. 1t thinks the Republican party
can elect, or at least try to elect, a majority
of Representatives in Congress who will be
true to their Constitutional obligations and
the rights of humanity. 1t thinks this
point should be insisted upon, and that
enough members should be returned to the
next Senate and House of Representatives
to reject any one who may frauduently
claim seats in Congress through an election
obtained solely by reason of known and
notorious bulldozing and fraud.

The idea of abolishing the School Board,
or of totally transferring it, deserves
weighty consideration. The School Board
in its present form is pretty extravagant
body, with which our city is punished.
The election of its members by wards has
done no good. The system of serving with.
out pecuniary compensation is just as un,
satisfactory and expensive. Itwould there
fore be we'll to create board of honorable
men and pay them, giving them the au
thorty to manage our educational sys
tenn.
