Republican magnanimity toward the negro

Snowden, an intelligent colored man, and
of exceptional ability, residing at Mt. Zion,
eighth election district, was nominated for
secretary of the convention; he was voted
down, and that too by the white Republi-
cans of every district except his own. The
majority of the colored delegates voted alike
against him; being used as tools by their
sympathizing white brethren, they willingly
put down one of their own kinsmen. If the
colored man will shake off the raiment of

lican brethren, his eyes would be opened to
the fact that they are ravenous wolves He

AVOID PERSONALITIES.

AT the outset Of the campaign, before the
feelings OF either party have been imbt-
tered by collisions and disputation, let us
suggest to the speakers and political mana
gers the desirableness OF avoiding porsonali-
ties as far rs possible in the coming canvass.
Personal abuse ON one side is sure TO pro-
woke retaliation in kind on the other; and
in such contest the men who are most Bit
ter, INSCRIPTIONS and envenomcd, and who
have least TO lose by it, are sure TO win.
Moreover, II is the experience oI campaign
veterans that such tactics ar. never really
popular with the people fne ready laugh
follows neat thrust, and the applause of
OF the brutal and thoughtless is won by
a knock down blow" but as general
thing the masses Of the voters are apt To
conclude that the speaker who expcnds
himself in vituperation is following the
suggestion OF the Old judge who advised
young beginner ut the bar to abuse the
plaintiffs attorney whenever he had no case
In other words, personal abuse is generally
and properly regarded AS an evidence OF
weakness.
We make this suggestion because a num-
her Of the leaders ON both sides have de-
ciarcd their intention to make AN "aggres-
sive' campaign, and because aggressive
ness" in politics Is very apt to degenerate
into vituperative personalities. And it is
worth while 10 remind ourselves now that
victory won by calm discussion of vital
political issues is much less apt to be chal-
lenged 10y the defeated party than one which
is the product of a contest that has aroused
the fiercest passions OF the participants.
For ourselves, We shall, MS the occasion
arises, discuss the various questions that
come up III the campaign, but we shall have
nothing to do with the personalities OF po.
litical warfare.

"oLD FRIENDsl

What multitude of deep and varied
emotions are called up from the soul by
the utterance of these two fond words
what thrOnging memories of other days
crowd the brain when they are spoken.
OIL There is magic in their sound and
the spell it evOkes is both sad and pleas
ing. When reverie brings before us in
quick succession the scenes of by-gOne
years, how do the features of old friends,
dim and shadOwy as the grave in which
many OF them are laid, fit before us.
The thoughts which fill the mind when
thus musing on the past are always of q
chastened kind. But, Brother Thompson,
have performed the very agreeable and
pleasant duty assigned and delegated
to me by your friends and must close.
In conclusion, allow me to express the
sincere wish of your friends, as we'll as
of myself, that wherever in the future
YOU may go, wherever you may be, and
whatever duty you may be called upon
to perform, that good health, prosperity,
success and the blessing of God may at
tend you.

piled feelingly and tOuchingly, sensibly
affected at the beautiful tribute so grace
fully presented, and his reply was franz
ed in the tender and loving words a
grateful heart would prompt.

windows to witness the narrowing sight

street cars don't run off the track with
you and-kiss me, Charley-there was
something l wanted to tell yOu-let me
see. Was it hair-pins? No, got them
what could it have been?"
"Pm due at the office, pet" says Char
ley, bracing up and looking very hand
some and manly; "was it something to
eat?"
"Why, of course it was; there isn't a
bit of mashed potatoes iu the house, nor
a mOuthful of bread and butter. We
want half yard of beef steak-see and
have it cut bias, so it will be tender
and loaf of sweet bread, Charley, and a
strawberry shOrt-cake, dear, and-and
anything else you think of dear"
"But, my little wife," says Charley,
looking very wise, s"these little things
must all be made before we can eat
them"
Must theyp oh dear, and l never
learned to do fancy work! 1 never GRO

An Extraordinary Man.

In the person Of Hoe Bey, Constan-

remarkable visitor. This Circassian
chief, who has been paying homage to
his liege lord, the sultan of Turkey,
was born in 1862 and entered the
Turkish military service in 1777, since
which time eight successive sultans
have known him as one of the most
faithful and valiant officers in the
Ottoman army, to which he still be-
longs, after an active military career OF
105 years. He has fought in sixty-five
pitched battles, innumerable skir'
mishes, received three and twenty
wounds, and has earned every military
decoration in the gift of the sultan
Now, in his one hundred and twentieth
year, he is still strong and hearty an(
in full possession of all his faculties

The Indians of Alaska.

the number of abotiglnes in Alaska,

riousV estimated from 10000 to
10000. With regard to those in the
interior there. is very .meager accurate
knowledge. The obstacles In the way
of thorough understanding of the
nature of this portion of the American
possessions and the number and char
acter of the natives, are not great,
either from the cost of outfitting an
exploring party, danger from the ma
tives or any other terrors incident to
such an undertaking. In their handi-
work, especially as exhibited by cary
ings in wood, stone and slate, their
ornaments and shapely canoes, they
display unlooked-for skill. Blank
eted natives, with painted or
hideously besmeared faces, were
to be seen. From condition offensive
to the nostrils and this scanty mode of
dress there are various stages of ap-
proach to cleanliness and civilized
style of clothing; some, indeed, make
a very presentable appearance. Some
times Indians were observed affection
ately fOndling their children, and the
men often carrying their offspring in
their arms with all the apparent pride
of their white brethren. The women
generally do the trading and bargain
ing in disposing of furs and in other
transactions. When an Indian offers
furs for sale, and the price has been
| arranged between him and the pur-
chaser, his kloochman, or squaw, can
! veto the transaction, and has to be
consulted before the trade becomes
final. The Indians are never in a
hurry to conclude bargain, those
from distance often remaining at a
trading post for weeks holding out for
a most trifling advance on tho
price offered. They are shrewd
traders, and the amounts agreed
upon for the different kinds of
furs seem very high to an uninitiated
on-looller. The purchasers would lose
money on the goods if they paid coin.
| The Indians shrewdnesS manifests it.
self only in securing the promise of a
high price. They do not want money,
but desire articles out of the store.
Their ignorance of what these cost the
dealer leaves them a prey to the most
outrageous imposition from the more
intelligent but less honest white traf-
flicker. These Indians are industrious,
willingly embracing opportunities OF
earning money by working for it. II
they are not doomed race, by reason
of liquor and contact with depraved
whites preventing their reclamation
from heathenship, in the coming devel-
opment of the resources of Alaska they
