Advice to Colerea men

Republican Advice to Colored Men
Here is the polite language the ne-
mars (lowa) Sentinel addresses to
the colored man. 1t is a Stalwart
among Stalwarts, favoring Grants re-
election for an indefinite term and
the wipiDg out of all State lines:
G. What we need is encouragement,
not curses; protection, not violence" !"
Orleans Weekly Louisianian, edited,
owned aud printed by niggers, who
sent US copy asking an exchange
with the Sentinel. We will grant the
gentlemanly darkies the boon they
crave, that they may study African
ethnology from Stalwart stand point.
What we need is encouragement, not
curses; protection, not violence
That is niger all over Why, You
great, woody headed boobies, what
you need is to learn to curse and
practice Violence and all these other
things will be added to you. If you
have not sand enough to stand up and
curse these lantern -jawed Brigadiers
their white-livered retainers, then the
Republican party made a great mis-.
take in giving you your freedom. If
these unhung traitors dare molest you
when you go to vote, shoot them as
you would so many dogs. Ifyou
have not the courage to do so, get on
the auction block and let them sell
you to the highest bidder.
"a six-shooter is what you need,
Mr.. Mig"
Perhaps Mr.. Herman, of the Okolo-
ma Southern States, can equal this, but
he certainly has never done so.

An Objection Answered.

On the evening of the 25th of July
General Ewing made a speech at
GAINESVILLE to large and enthusiastic
audience in response to q serenade.
During his speech q Prominent Green
backer asked him why he voted for
Randall for Speaker. He replied that
he voted for Blackburn, but after
Blackburn was defeated he cast his
vote for Randall, as the choice lay be.
tween Randall and q hard money Re-
publican. Ewing said it was not true
that his vote would have elected q
Greenbacker as Speaker; Ewing said
further that Randall was q silver man
and that bis vote while Speaker had
saved the Warner Silver Bill from de-
feat in the House. He also said that
Randall favored Greenbacks in place
of National Bank notes, and had in
troduced bill into the House to that
effect.
The answer seems to have been sat-
isfactory to those who haye been ma
king objection to supporting General
Ewing because he voted for Randall
for Speaker, and it seems it had that
effect in that locality, many of the
prominent Greenbackers who heard
the speech and position of General
Ewing declaring they would vote for
him

"THIs is nation, not q league" is
the unanimous declaration of Repub-
lican conventions. We are of the
opinion that the trainers of the con-
stitution sufficiently defined the char
acter of the government, and that it is
presumptious on the part of the Re-
publican party to attach other labels
to it. 1t was created as q union of
States; it cannot be transformed into
q nation unless God kas changed his
plan of fighting ON the side Of the
heaviest battalions.

DIED.

CHAPMAN-At Rootstown. July 26th, 1879 by
accidental drowning. Floyd &. Chapman. eld-
est son of Plympton U. Chapman and Sarah
= Chapman. aged % years 6 months.
The deceased was an exemplary young man
of unquestionable character, never indulging
in any of the Incorporate vices SO prevalent at
the present age. Integrity of purpose and pu.
rity of motive always prompting him to action.
made him universal fav0rlte among large
circle of friends and to realize that one so high
ly esteemed-just entering upon most promis-
ing manhood, should SO suddenly be taken from
our midst, cast an appalling gloom over the
whole community which can never be eradica-
ted from the memory of near and dear friends.
Always kind to father and mother, making
light their many cares and burdens. ever ready
to lend helping hand to brother and sister.
always having q cheerful word for every one,
made his influence felt wherever he was. Yes.
tits sad to think that here we shall not meet but
we can only miss. There will be one vacant
chair. The family circle is broken. No more
shall the listening ear catch the sound Of his
elastic footsteps, or hear his welcome voice
Not again the eager eye behold his cheerful
continuance. Though tits sad. indeed, to know
he Is gone. yet memory will never fail to cher
ish those indclibio prints Of Kindness loft upon
tho hearts of kind parents. loving brothers and
sisters. and many dear II lends until we shall
clasp hands Of joy and welcome upon tho other
shore The parents and dear relatives have the
heartfelt sympathy Of their many friends in
their sad bereavment, and may they remember
that God moves in a my steri0us way his won
ders to perform and that Floyd is only sleeping.

The Congressional Committee to in
vestigate into elections of 1878 here in
Cincinnati has developed some impor-
tant facts and may yet run against
some mere.
1t has brought to light for the fret
time the names of the Deputy Mar
shals who were appointed aud paid by
the General Government to carry the
district for the Republican candidates.
The Chief Marshal has testified that
he appointed them all from the Re-
publican party because he wanted
'honest men, and he doubted MS abil-
ity to find honest men among the
Democrats. Who were these men?
1t turns out that three or four of
these honest mem had before been in.
dicted and tried for killing other men.
That others of the number had been
charged with theft and other crimes.
That others have for years been no.
torious as ward bummers aud disre-
putable citizens generally. That all,
or nearly all, were a bad lot, and q
disgrace to the Office they held.
1t turns out that they were instruct
ed to keep their official characters se-
cret and to carry out the orders of
the Marshal without any one but
themselves knowing that they had
authority. to do so. 1t was q Star
Chamber proceeding entirely.
1t turns out that they were massed
in the Democratic wards of the city,
while Republican wards were not fa-
vored with their presence at all.
1t turns out that they were rcmov-
ed from wards in which they lived in.
to other wards, and into tho Congress
sional Districts in which they had no
residence.
This was not for the purpose of se-
curing an honest election. No fais-
minded man who reads the testimony
will believe that it was for any such
purpose. 1t was simply to carry the
city for the Republicans.
Instead OF being for the protection
of the ballot box, their employment
was for its corruption.
1t was to fasten this plan of holding
elections upon the Government that
Hayes twice vetoed an Appropriation
Bill passed by Congress.
How do fair. minded, Independent
voters like such form of elf-gOvern-

The fools are neither dead nor con-
fined to any particular latitude. The
Okolona States has had to bear the
brunt of being the champion jackass
paper of the United States for some
time past, but now it has found an
equal in Iowa on the Republican side.
The Lemsr Iowa) Sentinel Of last
week, under the caption How to
make US Nation," has this crack
bralned proposition to offer;
"Complete the revolution of 1860
1865 by
81. Formally changing the name of
this Republic to America.
"2. Abrogating SO much of the Con-
sutton of the United States as con-
flicts with National solidarity. For
example, such clauses as recognize the
individual departments as States ;
that give to each State two Senators
irrespective of population; that give
to each State one and only one vote,
in case a Presidential election is
thrown into the House; that permit
each State to adopt q Constitution of
its own; that recognize State Courts !;
that inhibit the National Executive
and his Cabinet from reviewing so.
called State legislation.
'3. By abrogating all State Consti-
tutions, and granting to the provinces
or Departments thus created charters,
under which the citizens of each de.
partment might transact their busi-
ness.

those rebellious States that forcibly
resisted the Revolution of 1860 IS.
'5. By inaugurating Grant into the
American Presidency March 4, 1881,
and keeping him in the Presidential
chair till the nation was consolidated.
"This would complete the Revolu-
ton, and the Stalwsrts will never rest
until they have accomplished their
glorious work."
If the Stalwarts of Ohio, who are
the representatives of their class the
country over, want to try their scheme
of liberalization as preliminary one
to Monarchy, they should make the
issue at once. Here they have lead
er in the field, let them follow him.
