Fhe Owl, Rights Biz

The Civil Rights Bill, passed, ~ the Repab-
lican party to hold the colored vote, is likely
to work disadvantage TO that party. Ii has
been no benefit to the colOred people, but
only a permit TO the impatient and overbear-
ing ones of that race 70 bring themselves into
prominence, and 20 allow others to endeaver
to ill an empty purse in the way of obtaining
heavy damages for alleged violations Of their
rights as American citizens. Few il any con
yicsions have followed, and the only result has
been TO drive hundreds from the party THAI
enacted the law Tho pretensions Of friend

Bishop Paine's Alleged Election.


4 delegation of colored Methodist minis
tiers, headed by Bishop Brown and accom-
panied by Frederick Douglass, called Wednes-
dayupon Attorney General Brewster, in Wash
iugton, and entered complains against the
u. S. Attorney for Northera Florida7for fail
ure to enforce the. Civil Rights Act The
particular case alleged was the election of
Bishop. Paine from a railroad train, and the
application for redressto the Attorney without
avail
The election alleged is no election at all.
The facts in the case are these: A Florida
railroad-the Florida and Jacksonville--put
a special car on train and issued to colored
people half fare tickets from jacksonville to
a certain point. Bishop Paine bought half
fare ticket and took seat in car in part
Of the regular train. When the train started
and the conductor came to Bishop Paine, the
Bishop presented half fare ticket. He was
informed BY the conductor that q. half fare
ticket could not be accepted fer q, ridein, that
car, and that he must either. Ray full fare or
go to the car set apart f9s sSegFsionists The
Bishop refused to do eithar, and wanted the
conductor to step the train then and there and
put him eff, The conductor refused to do
this, bst told the Bishop that at the next sta
sloa, he would have To gel off, unless he got
into the excursion car or paid full fare. Still
obstinate, the bishop had to get off at the
next station.
These, then, are the facts of the election Of
Bishop Paine from railroad train, as we
learn from Florida journal, and for this act
of the railroad company considerable furore
has been raised among the colored people.
Colored conferences in several places have
made it subject Of discussion and denuncia-
tory resolutions, and il an grows out Of the
refusal Of Bishop Paine to associate with men
of his own color. Had he paid full fare he
could have ridden in one of the regular cars
Ofthe train. This he would not do, bus IN
sisted on riding in car other than Ae, ane
set apart for exeursionists, and at excursion
rates.
The United States District. tlsoFsey for the
northern district Of Florls@ 20 doubt, was
familiar with these fact, aad fo5. that reason
could take no legal soxIizance of the matter.
What could he de- Certainly not prosecute
a railroad eosapany for not allowing one man
more privileges than another If he had
taken any. action at all, he would have had 10
do that, and as broad as the Civil Rights Bill
is. ii does not guarantee any snch privileges
as Bishop Pail5e claimed.

From the Prince Georgian, Dem.
commencing as it did with many promises
made for reform, much was expected of it. and
we are pleased to record the fact that its ad
iournment finds all, or nearly all, of its pledg
es redeemed.
From the Maryland Courier, Dan
''The session of 1882 was probably no bet
ter or no worse than many of its predecessors
Several needed reform measures were passed,
most important of which was the registration
bill, and number of other measures that
should have been passed were not acted upon.
From the Maryland Republican, Dem.
''Under all the peculiarly adyerses circum-
stances, the General Assembly has done its
duty nobly With the Governor hurting his
anathemas at them, and a snarling lobby at
their heels. the members of the Legislature
have not reposed on beds of roses. Pledged
to accomplish certain reforms demanded by
all the people, and promised by the State
convention of the party, they found themselves
handicapped constantly by the arrogant dlcta-
ton of Governor who is wrapped up in his
own alleged dignity, albeit continually under
the whip and spur of little o. l.. ID. faction
in Baltimore.
From the Cecil Democrat, Dem.
''The Legislature adjourned last Monday
night No jobs got through and no scandals
were developed Its wholesome influence
will be felt and recognized as the years go
by.
From the Denton Journal, Dem.
The session of the Maryland Legislature
for 1882 can hardly be styled a brilliant one,
vet in the main its work has been one of pro-
gress and reform.
From the ~. HoIy's Beacon, Dem
1--WE have the high authority Of Senator
Williams, president of the Senate. for the
statement that. so far at least as that body
was concerned, every pledge has been re-
deemed. and that this whole body-demoeratS

ana have promptly and thoroughly done all
that has been either demanded or promised.

more yigor aud force in it now than it had
when the Legislature assembled.
