HON. w. n.

The visit OF our old friend. Hon. w.
n. Clagsett, to the Comstock. after an
absence Of fifteen years in Montana and
Dakota, calls to mind the memorable
struggle when he was . candidate for
Congress before the State Convention in
1865. The Convention was held In Car
SON City and was composed OF los men,
bers. James Slingerland was Chairman.
The candidates for Congress were W. Il.
Clsgsstt. Charles A. Sumner and d. Il.
Ashley. Thomas Fitch was also nomi-
mated and received one vote. Storey
county had thirty.six delegates. who
stood solid for ClagRett. On the second
day Claggstt received fity-two votes
one more would have nominated him.
Bis opponents moved an adjournment
for IN hour, and 1t was carried BY 9 test
vote. On reassembling Sumner with
drew and placed in nomination John b.
Winters. Still Storey stood solid. thir.
ty.siI for Clsgsstt. On the first ballot
after the recess Clagsstt received nifty.
one votes; Winters getting one from him
in washos county. No choice was had on
the second day. On the third day. after
q number Of ballots were taken and NO
choice was had. 1t Vas thought In order
to win favor from Ashley's friends.
Storey should cast . certain number Of
votes for Ashley A. . complimentary
vote, few thinking he could DO NOM
mated. The ooquetting proved fatal to
Cisggstt's nomination. for with the
change other delegations went to Ashley,
and In the excitement that followed
Ashley received . majority Of the votes
and was declared the nominee OF the
Convention. How wildly all this ID
called to mind when. after aftsen years.
We meet and converse with the actors OF
that scene. Time has thinnsd the ranks
lot those that were there. and unwilling
ly IL tells Us va are growing old. But

Christianity. Ia it he talks Of black |
man as though his. skin made him
loathsome and as though it would be
impossible to get white men ever to
touch anything so repulsive. doubt |
if anything worse was ever penned by
Southern fire-eater than was the report
written by this Major-General Scho-
field, this son of Baptist minister,
born in the North, raised in the
North, and educated at the National
expense. He says in his report: "The
education and elevation Of this newly
enfranchised race is a work worthy of
the united effort of all good citizens;
but that work cannot be advanced-it
must rather be retarded-by forcing
colored men into official position for
which they have not yet become duly
qualified, or into social relations where
they cannot be freely welcomed. The
colored man cannot be truly free un-
til he becomes independent of such
extraneous aid, and the degree of his
freedom cannot be increased by de-
priving the white man of portion of
the liberty he has always enjoyed"
Is his statement more true of col
ored boys than of Irish boys? Is it
more true Of boy raised in loving
home, as was Whitaker, or # a boy
raised as boot black, as are some who
have gone to West Point? Is it not
true that material taken i'll the raw is
always unfit for official position, and
is it not also true that it is the mission
of education to cultivate that material
for its rightfnl place in the world?
General Schofeld says the colored men
can never be truly free until he be-
comes independent Of extraneous aid.
If such is the case he can never be
free, nor can a white boy ever be de-
veloped. Extraneous aid is essential
to the development of mind. Hence
we e1dOw colleges, support teachers,
and insist upon the attendance at
school of the youth Of this land. IL
a colored man cannot be free so long
as white men are ruled by this caste
spirit, and if nothing be done to kill
and destroy this sentiment, then sure
ly his future is hopeless. An organ
lied effort has been made to Danish
colored people from the Military
Academy Since the days Of squatter
sovereignty nothing more iniquitous
against humanity has been plotted.
It becomes the duty Of the American
people to petition Congress to oppose
the outrage and to call upon the Pres
ident to give this lad, so outraged, so
tabooed, an opportunity.

THE Secretary Of the Interior has
asked for S1s,O0O,OOO in addition to
the S5O,0O0,OOO already appropriated
for the payment Of pensions for the
current fiscal year. 1t is a singular
fact that as the period since the close
of the war lengthens out, the claims
for pensions increase. 1t is very evil
dent that the Government is victim
ized to large extent, in the matter
Of pensions The man who became
maimed or in any way disabled, or is
injured, physically, because Of his ser
vices in the army, is entitled to PEN
sion. But when a man who never
saw days hard service in the army,
and who came out a stronger man,
physically, than he went in, makes
affidavit that he lost his health in the
army, it looks somewhat strange, to
say the least. We once knew stout
young man in the army. He con-
tracted cold, and from the effects OF
it, he became hoarse, and for some
months talked in whisper He was
as sound man, so far as the world
could see, after he came out, as when he
enlisted. Some twelve years after the
close of the war this man made ap-
plication, because Of having been in
jured by this bad cold, and he is per-
haps, one of the hardest men on the
Pension Roll to-day.
