to claim the credit of their emancipation. It
secured their Acknowledgement more with a
view to perpetuating its own power than as
matter of justice. 1t secured the passage
of laws designed especially to benefit them.
Now Senator Allison rises in his seat in the
Senate and acknowledges publicly that the
professions of regard for the race on the part
of his party are mere snam, and that
coercion will have to be employed to induce
Republicans to accord to the negroes their
just rights. Notwithstanding the fact that
the executive Office and both houses of Con-
gress have been under the control of the
Republicans of both houses nearly the whole
time that the negro has been in the enjoy
nent of the rights of citizenship, but three
colored men have been appointed to cadet
ships in the military academy. Republican
Presidents have had the privilege of appoint
ing ten cadets each year, but none of the
appointees from that source have been color
ed men. Republican Senators and Repre-
sentatives have had the disposal of several
hundred like appointments each year, and
but three out of several thousand nomi-
mated by them have been colored men.
Now Mr.. Allison proposes to compel
the President to appoint colored men to
these positions-to compel him to do what
he has the power to do if he chooses. The
proposition was ridiculous, and it is not to
be wondered at that it provoked the discus
sion that it did.
The law imposes no restrictions upon the
appointment of cadets to West Point. The
President may name whoever he chooses to
be educated at the public expense, whether
be be white or black. The members of
both houses of Congress enjoy the same
privilege. If the Republicans are 80 anxious
to have the negro race represented in that
institution, they can secure that result by
making their appointments accordingly.
Two hundred colored men can procure ca
detships every year if the Republicans 80
elect. But they have studiously ignored the
very source of their present power, and ia
vored only the men of pure Caucasian
blood. Even MIR. Allison, who is so solicis
tous for the public education of colored men
in the art of war, has neglected his oppor-
tunities He has been in the Senate for
seven years, and during that time has con-
signed fourteen young men to life of idle
ness, but not one of them has been negro.
The most rabid of all the Senators and
Representatives have similar record. Not
one of them from the North has yet conde-
scended to acknowledge the existence of the
colored race, save for the purpose of making
few buncombe speeches.
Senator Allison's amendment was entirely
unnecessary. The President has the power
now to nominate ten colored men to West
Point. Each Senator and Representative
can fill his allotment of nominations with
colored men. To attempt to coerce either
of them is piece of absurdity. It would
not receive the support of majority of the
Republicans of either house.

FoRTY-sIxTH CONGRESS.
[Second SESSION.
The Senate.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Davis, W.
Va. Cameron and Others presented petitions
of iron manufacturers for the passage of Sen
ator Eaton's bill for a commission for revision
of the tariff.
Senator Eaton, from the committee on ap-
propriations, reported without amendments
the naval appropriation bill. Placed on the
calendar.
Senator Morgan, by request, introduced
bill of claims to investigate the claim of Ben.
NJ. Weiland, of the Larbra Mining company.
Referred.
The joint resolution authorizing the Presi
dent to reappoint Stephen A. McCarty, lieu
tenant commanding in the navy, at the foot
of the list, was read third time, yeas SO. NAYS
19, and passed.
The House bill to authorize and equip an
expedition to the Arctic seas to establish q
temporary station for scientific observations at
Lady franklin bay, etc., passed.
When the morning hour expired the Kellogg
resolutions were temporarily laid aside and the
Indian appropriation bill taken up.
Senator Teller ridiculed the idea of keeping
an agent for the PueblOs, who had been peace
full and civilized for $50 years. The agent was
an unmitigated nuisance there. His principal
occupation was sending to the department
highly colored reports of his efforts TO aid their
civilization while the fact is they haven't ad-
vanced a iOt since the Spaniards found them in
1910.
Senator Davis said the condition of the In
dams was getting worse every day.
Senator Beck said that under the present
system everything possible was being done to
ameliorate the condition of the Indians and to
prevent trouble.
Pending discussion on an amendment of
fered by Senator Plumb to appropriate IS, 900
for seeds and implements, the Senate went In
to executive session and soon adjourned.

not admit of dispute. The poll-tsx law

shifting the Rtver Channel.

Perhaps the idea of shifting the Mississippi
river, through st. Paul, as advanced in the
GLOBE of yesterday, half mile or more to
the right side of its ancient bed, may have
seemed to some readers rather extTavsgant
one. We are willing, however, to compromise
on the proposition TO shift the whole river to
the right side of Coal, Raspberry
and Harriet islands. The slough on that side
could be converted by dredging into straight,
deep channel, sufficient to accommodate all
the waters OF the river at highest flood times.
The saud and clay dredged out would make
the levees on either shore with some to spare
towards filing up the present channel. The

reason why he voted to retain the tariff when

Samuel j. TYlde,,s Railroad.

The campaign talk of 1876, about Mr..
Tilden's being railroad-wrecker would be
added to in 1880 if he should be again a
candidate, by the story of the recent opera
tons in connection with the New York &
Oswego Midland railroad. The road was
designed to make new line through New
York and New Jersey, with western connec-
ton, for competition with the Erie and Gen.
trail systems. But in 1873 it went into the
hands of receivers, one of whom is Abram
S. Hewitt. In 1876-'8O with the aid of the
courts the property was transferred to new
organization, and the plan has now been
nearly carried out. Omitting details of
the plan, but promising that Mr.. Jordan,
Mr.. Tilden's- agent, has the handling of
cash, stock and bonds, it is enough to state
results. The property originally cost 1921
100000. The new company, consisting of
Tilden, Jordan, Hewitt and their friends, OBJ
tains the road for $15,000,000. The
new company's capital is $780,
100000. 1t will have the
property and about 28,o00,000 of stock and
cash assets and the parties named, holding
the controlling interest, will not have invested
to exceed 81, SOC, 900. The second bondholders
and stockholders of the old company have
been induced to furnish most of the money
by the improbability of their otherwise re-
tanning any interest in the property. The
plan will be consamated the 14th of next
month, when the time of redemption ex-
pires and the new company will then pro-
coed to carry out the original idea of making
the Midland one of the great trunk lines.

an Umthought-of Danger Averted.

One of our Chicago exchanges says:
Through the thoughtfulness of Il. A. Beck
Ter, of Rogers Park, what might have been a
sickening railroad catastrophe was averted
Sunday evening of last week. Two freight
cars, which had been side-tracked and the
brakes set, were put in motion by the wind,
and were forced out upon the main track of
the Northwestern road. Mr.. Becker, feel
ing his way homeward through the intense
darkness, encountered the obstruction on the
track. and Immediately notified the station
agent. he had just time enough to place
the signal lights when the Green Bay express
train, which left the city at 9 o'clock P. NJ,
rounded the curve at speed of nearly forty
miles per hour. But for Mr.. Beckler's
chance discovery of the obstruction there
would have been an accident which would
have taken rank with the Ashtabula catas-
trophe or the jackson horror
