Indications are not wanting that the
intelligent colored men of the country
like Mr.. Downing, are coming to Il
realizing knowledge of the true in
wardness of Republican love for
colored voters-that they have no in.

failure to recognize the colored man
in any official position where the Re
publicans have the power, in conncc-
ton with the coIored vote, to accord
such recognition. In Pennsylvania,
and indeed in nearly all the leading
Northern States, sham Republicanism

Downing correctly characterizes as a

IF the Congressional apportionmcnt
bill passed by the Democrats in the
House becomes a law, it will require
%, 400 Rep. votes to elect a Congress
man, and 81, 400 to elect Democrat.
Would it be possible TO devise a bill
fairer than this? Certainly Republi.
cans have no just reason to find fault
with it, when they are accorded ma
iority on a very doubtful title. The
bill offered by the House, Is one of alb.
solute fairness, and is not framed in
the interest Of wrong, as was the act
upon which the members of congress
were apportioned for the ten years past.
II is time we had some little honesty
and fairness in this thing, and we do
