LOOK TO YOUR RECORD.

r.v reason OF the early adjournment OF the
conate on yesterday, the bill repeating the
~harter OF the Louisiana Lottery Company
80 not reached. It will come up, however,
to-dav. unless the friends Of that institution
"a "a successful In their tactics as they were
veaterday. OF this we have but slight ap-
nrebension, as there is every reason to be-
Have that several Senators who voted yester-
day for adjournment did 80 unwittingly and
without knowing that they were playing into
The hands of the Lottery people. To-day
these gentlemen will be on their guard and
fully alive to the Importance OF every vote
they may cast, and will place themselves on
record az having voted In favor OF the bill.
It would be idle for us, at this late day, to
reiterate our denunciations OF the evil inHu-
snees OF the lottery, to expose It's corruptng
influence upon political and social life, or to
enter into exhaustive argument to prove the
fallacy of its claims to vested rights and an
existence bedged about by the sanctity OF
constitutional protection. This we do not
propose to do, but merely to say to the Senate
that whatever 1t may do to-day will not Dc
forgotten In Louisiana for many and many Q
year. The eyes OF the entire people OF the
State are upon you, and they Will scrutlnlze
every vote that Is cast, every motion that Is
made It is now solely In the hands OF
Democratic Senate to decide the fate OF the
Lottery, to apply the knife to the foulest sore
the leprosy Of Radicalism has left upon the
body polite of this State, or to give it new
lease OF life, renewed virulence to eat into
the social and political morals OF our commu-
nifty.
No individual Senator can ever escape from
the record he shall make to-day. The good
or evil he shall do will cling to him all his
remaining days, and will be the tombstone Of
ali his future aspirations. Whenever a men,
Der of the present Senate shall come before
the people, seeking their suffrages, the first
question asked will be, "How did he vote on
the Lottery bill In January, 1892
Gentlemen Of the Senate, the question is
with you, to dispose OF, absolutely, as you
wilt

cate any particular disease. If they
work it becomes labor if they walk
they soon tire mental efforts become
burden, and even joys are dimmed by
the shadow of this weakness which Is

sometimes to stimulants of dangerous

refrain from active labor produces ne

Tho Ksus - Refugees.

One Of the ,olored emigrants to Kan
sas, in telling his story to an agent,
after relating how sevesal persons had
been killed because they would not
vote with the Democrats, said 81 can
lie down at night and amt afraid"
That tells the story in mt shell.
People won't stay in place long where
they lie down in the fear that they
may bs dragged from their homes be
fore morning, shot, and their bodies
left to be eaten by hogs, as was the case
with one man-not If they can get
away. It is the general testimony of
these refugees that this is the reason
why they have left their homes. As to
their general condition, judging from
the observations of those who have Wis
tied them, It is favorable. They made
no complaints but that they got a liv-
ing. They got paid for their work,
which they did not do formerly. They
are becoming land owners. One man
who reached Kansas with fifty cents in
cash, and made $l5 there by a horse
trade, is now the owner OF $50 acres,
has 7 horses, 90 hogs and s head Of cat
tie, sends his children to the same
schools with the whites and has a
church and Sunday school in the school
house.
The testimony Of ths whites is gener,
ally favorable to the good character
and industry Of the refugees. One man
said they would steal, though they had
stolen nothing from him. This man
had been Democrat till 1860 and was
going back to that party. His next
neighbor said they never stole from
him, didn't beg, and were industrious,
with an occasional exception.
The Singleton colony comprises some
800 persons, and each family has a
claim of 40 acres. They had no means
but have earned their subsistence by
laboring among the farmers, were in
dustrious, sober and temperate, were
cash customers, and had got along bet
ter than the same class Of whites
would. Another colony, the Nicode
mus, is the largest and most successful
in Kansa,. They have over $50 faml-
lies. each of which has 100 acres. They
have a hotel, stores, &c, ii schools anc
two churches. The person who engin'
eered this colony had brought 50o'
more women and children into the
State. The whole colored population
of the State is 1000.
In short the whole evidence that ha'
been collected is that ill treatment ha
driven the colorsd people from theil
homes, and that where they are the!
have shown themselves industrious
and well behaved, and are doing re
markably well. 1t is a terrible mis-
take for the South to drive away sucl

The entertainment Of the "Cantata Of
the Flower Queen or Cornation Of the
Rose," on Friday evening, was very
enjoyabls affair. The Hall which is
very large and commodious, was well
filed. The voice of Miss Griffith, who
took the character Of the Queen was
very fine. The grace and ease of Miss
Jennie Smithers, one Of the Maids
whose duty it was to crown the Queen,
would have done credit to the profess
sional stage. After the Cantata the
troupe gave selections from the opera of
Pinafore. Wm. Dickson in the char
acter Of Sir. Joseph Porter, might have
been better, but Carrie Mahon as Little
Buttercup, Miss Jones as Hebe, and
Paul Jefferson as Captain Corcoran,
could hardly have been surpassed. The
choruses were grand, and though it was
near II o'clock ere they sang their fare
we'll, yet the audience seemed willing to
remain longer.

tant Episcopal Church of Delaware,
