The iollowing article, taken from th'
Topeka (KaAssa) Morning Common
wealth, OF July 18th, contains the facts
in references 70 tho suicide Of Harry
Comegys nephew Of our Chief Justice.
Last evening the people Of Topeka were
again shocked by the news Of another
suicide, aud tho more, perhaps, because
the dead mau has been one OF the most
brilliant and popular members o
society. The victim was Mr.. Harry z

2S years old, who came TO Topeks

fully to Messrs. G. R. Williams and
Joe Bacon, the latter Of Klkton, Md.
At twenty minutes past four, Mr..
Williams went up to his room, and
from there mp stairs, to inquire how
Comsgys felt. On the stairs he met Mr..
Bacon, who had been on the same
errand, and said that the door was
locked and he couldn't get any answer
to his calls. The gentlemen then went
out on the roof Of the wing, and from
there obtained entrance through q
window, and saw him lying on the bed
apparently sound asleep. Mr.. Williams
shook him, but failing to awaken him
made an exsmina alton and found that
he was dead. A bottle partly Allied
with chloroform was found on the
pillow next to his face, and q part oi
the contents had been poured on the
pillow. Another pillow lay on his
head.
Physicians were at once summoned
but he was beyond their power to aid

enough considering the length OF the

The Indianapolis leader. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1879-1890, 1880-12-11

There seems to be spontaneous
movement among both white and
colored Republicans throughout the
country to have ex-Congressman j..
H. Rainey, eff South Carolina, made
clerk of the next House of Represen-
tatives. With all of our heart we
endorse the movement. There would
be a fitness in Mr.. Rainey's election
to this honorable position which
words cannot describe. Let the col
ored people in every Republican
Congressional district in the Union
secure a pledge from their represent
ative that he will cast his vote for
Mr.. Rainey. There are few that will
refuse. By pursuing this course, MIR.
Rainey's election can be made certain
beyond a peradventure. Will the
Norfolk Sentinel drop the barren
ideality of a Chaplaincy, and join us
in this movement that has about it
the essence Of substantial good.

For many years it has been muchly-

merous failures can be worth anything to
count on; we should judge-no. The Col

their days-few in number and an un-
timely end. Since colored paper can not
live here, why should we not join hands

The abilities of the colored brother has been
too frequently compensated with menal
positions; too often has the colored man, on
showing with pride his diploma, been shown
broom and mop. The colored people look
with pride upon the administrations of Mar
shall Douglas and Minister Langston, and
are willing and able to prove that they can
do far better as brain worker than mop
worker.
The appointment of General y. o. Howard,

moval of that monster, Scbofeld. from West

CINCINNATI DEPARTMENT.

We are sorry that by the publica-
ton Of some harmless items the Lea
der has been the innocent cause of
such serious trouble among some Of
our Cincinnati friends. The parties
C concerned are all friends of the Lea
der, and We trust We may be permit
ted to pour oil on the troubled waters.
1t is not best to fight about these
little newspaper items, except
through newspapers. AS we have
frequently said, we allow the widest
latitude to our correspondents. If
they give sharp thrusts, the aggrieved
party can thrust back through the
Leader. We, of course, will not
knowingly permit any one to be
slandered through the Leader. Jest
and repartee should be distinguished
from slander. We trust the boys viii
think the matter over, meet, shake
and-settle the matter amicably,
and fight their battles hereafter
through the columns of the Leader,
which if not so exciting, is fraught
with far less danger and annoyance
