Rare Fidelity.

History affords no parallel to the
steadfast and faith full support given
the Republican party by the Negro.
Under persecution, personal violence,
intimidation and threats Of extermi-
nation, his constancy and support
has never relaxed Examples of
martyrdom for principle have been
furnished by them. Notwithstanding
all tnat has been said about the clam
or Of colored politicians for Office the
support that has been gived the party
by the colored man has been disinter-
ested and promoted not by hopes of
reward bat by a sense of justice and
duty.
While always according hearty
enthusiastic support to the patty, the
Industrious and honest masses have
endured the consequences, never en-
barrassing the cause with undue
claims for positions or honors. They
have been content in that satisfaction
which always follows an honest dis
charge Of duty.
Having remained true in times
that tried mems souls, now that the
softenirg hand Of time has subdued
heated passions and bitter resentments,
and reason begins to resume its reign
justice must give the race credit for
the exercise of such noble qualifca
tions as tortitnde, fidelity, and per-
sisteLt adherence to principle.
Shall the Republican party show
its appreciation of this constancy no
lily proven by its colored supporters
President Arthur and his dispensers
Of public patronage have the oppor-
tunity to do SO now. All other ele-
ments Of strength to the party are
conciliated and satisfied BY recogni-
tion in appointments. Though strong
er than the German or the Irish, the
colored element of the party has been
shown less consideration. We leave
the subject for the present by submit
ting the suggestion to all interested
that the time is at hand when the
negro should receive fair recogni
tion in the house of his friends.
