FALSE AND DECEPTIVE Never
were there more false aud deceptive
partisans than those who have been in
the lead Of the Republican party.
They have managed to keep in power
In the national government by vio-
lence, falsehood, fraud and deception
for twenty years, and they are still
endsavoring to follow in the same
courSe. One faction of the party see the
errors and rascalities enacted by the
other and charge them with the
gravest of frauds. But still they
cling to the rotten faction and suffer
themselves to be ruled by them rather
than let go of the Official patronage
BY which they are held together The
cohesive power of public plumber, 4"
was never more glaringly exhibited,
than it has been by the political
tricksters who govern the Republican
party, and use it to fill their own
pockets. This has been notably
shown in the Star Route frauds, .the 9
bflier--the rotten carpet bag gov
ernments in the Southern States, the
eight years bayonet rule under Grant,
Leek and Stocking frauds upon the
Treasury and the attempt to over
come the Executive authority by
Conkling and theStalBarts resulting in
a"Stalwart Of the Stalwarts" shooting
down the President of the United
States such being thelthirst for high
Office and large pay cultivated by the
greed of the leaders for pelf and
power.
And in all their efforts the negro
race has been used as sham voters to
help them to power and to keep them
in power. These deluded people
without education or experience we're
put forward as legislators in the States
where the carpet-bag governors had
control and made to vote for laws
they coald neither read nor under
stand, under which States were run
millions of dollars In debt and the
money squandered or stolen, SO long
as a bond could be sold or dollar of
tax could be collected. OF course the
negro does not know the use that is
being made Of this vote. He learned
it to his cost in the South when he
found that the carpet-bag thieves,
who had been Governors of the
States had TO fly to escape being sent
to the penitentiaTy The negro being
without education was easily deceived
and robbed Of what little he had in
the South and he is still being used
TO help the Radical thieves rob the
people. To secure the help of the
negro vote they promised him forty
acres and mule in the South, and
Office and political influence every-
whore. How have these promises
been kept2 In all the Northern
States where from time to time lust
enough votes were gotten from
negroes to help that party with its
frauds and aids from legislating she
votes Of poor white men away, to give
them a majority, the negro has been
the recipient of promises only. Even
in Philadelphia, where the Radicals
mako majorities at will, and have
been robbing the city for years, they
did not keep their promises to the
negro, but, by paying one or two lead
ing negroes to help them retain the
negro votes, kept the colored men out
Of Office +; and it is only within three
months that colored children have
bssn admitted to the high schools in
some of the countieA-Chester for in
stance, after period filled with
promises to make the negro the equal |
with white, for ten or fifteen years. |
The deception is still carried on'in all |
the Northern States. But it is not
only in the States, during the four ad-
ministratiens the hundreds of Radi-
cal Congrsssmen have sent TIVE young
negroes to West Point. Thus the
