The Negro Exodus.

The emigration of negroes from the South has
become SO widespread, and has assumed such
proportions, that it is becoming matter for
serious contemplation, especially for the South.
The discomfort has become SO general that the
drain of labor from the Southern States threat
serious consequences There is something
mysterious connected with it, that cannot be
fathomed.. Some one claims to have discovered
that Irresponsible persons in the North are hold
ing ont deceptive Inducements; while others
contend that people in the South make false
representations to them, in order to get rid Of
worthless eolored population. There may be
instaDces in which both these assertions are
true, but they affect but few persons The tide
has been caused by some deeper and more po
tent reason. There does not appear to be any
organized effort, no secret organizations, ne cor
respondence between sections, but it seems to be
one of those natural and spontaneous move
ments that have taken place at long periods in
the worlds history. whole people seem to
be actuated by the same feelings and desires,
spontaneous as it were, without organized con-
cert of action. No explained reason can be
found, and sourece discovered from which
the movement receives its direction. One of
these movements was the exodus of the Israelites
from Egypt; another, when the entire popula-
tion of Helvetia moved into Gaul. In a military
way, the overrunning of Europe by the Huns
of similarity; or, if we look to the lower or
ders of animals, the locust and grasshoper in
vasons may be compared with it. 1t gets start
ed, and moves on, and nothing can stay it, or
turn it aside.
There is no doubt that the underlying cause
of the whole movement is a revolt of human
nature against oppression and wrong. After
centuries Of slavery, the negroes were freed, and
given political rights. They saw a man elected
ruler of the nation, pledged to protect them in
their rights but who, as his very first act, base
ly handed them over to their former oppressors.
They had no protection of their lives; they saw
their political rights taken from them by force;
and, being left thus helpless, they were robbed
of the wages of their labor. Nothing was left
them but to arise and seek new homes. And
now the South stands aghast at the prospect of
losing their laboriug class. After nullifying the
Constitution, defying the laws, and spending
their time in laziness, delRuchery, and acts Of
lawlessness, they should not be surprised that
the people whom they have oppressed and
wronged avail themselves of the only vestige of
freedom left them-that of getting up and going
away, to seek new homes, where even starvation
for time will be q relief from the wrongs they
have suffered.

SERVED HIM RIGHT.-The papers ont at Salina
are engaged in the regular and time -honored
wrangle over the city printing. 1t seems that
the Journal had the printing, and that the Her
aid, if it could not get it for pay, at last de-
termined to make it worthless to anybody else
The last Herald publishes the following PROPOSE
tion that its manager laid before the new City
Council
To the Mayor and Common Council Of the city of
have the honor to submit the following PROPOSE
tion for the city advertising and printing for the city
of Salina Kansas:
will do all the advertising that may be required
by the city of Salna free of charge, and will do the
job work that may be required for the cost of paper
used and the presswork only, charging nothing for
the setting up and correcting of jobs
To all of which will enter into bonds of 81 900 for
the faithful performance and fnflment of the con.

Whereupon, continues the Herald, upon mo-
tion of Mr.. Gels, the Council declared the Jour-
nal to be the official paper of the city-at regu-
lar rates, We presume We take occasion to re-
mark, good for Mr.. Gels, and the City Council
We drink their good health. Not that We are
glad the Herald did not get the printing for we
do not care which paper has it ; but there is
principle at stake, for which we have long con-
tended, and we have had to contend against the
same ruinous tactics that the manager of the
Herald attempted. Every man who labors for
an individual or the public, is entitled to fair
living wages. No laboripg man, and least of all
Kansas country printer, can afford to work
without compensation. The man who, for spite,
offers to do so, must make mp the loss by extor-
,b, 10 fbara lv surip
stealing. The printer who, in order to spite or
injure a rival, will break down the wages of his
already poorly paid business, is a disgrace and
fraud upon the profession, and should not be
countensnced by legitimate workmen.
