A Candid Northwestern Journal.

IChicagO Times
The nature OF white Americans is not
different i'm this part OF the country TO
what it is in the southern part, though
men placed in different conditions may not
manifest it In the same ways. But let the
conditions be the same in Illinois. Ohio,
New York, that they are in Virginia. the
Carolinas, MiSsissippi-lett the negroes COM
prise the electoral maj ority-and the coun-
try would soon discover how nearly white
men are alike. Northern society would no
more submit to, would no more readily
tolerate or permit. the political domination
OF a negro majority than southern society
does. The negro electOr is tolerated in
this part OF the country because there are
not enough of him to hurt; not because
northern white men admire him, trust
him. or have any more belief in his fitness
for the dischargc OF public functions than
southern society has. Moreover, it is a no.
table and instructive fact that as we recede
from the war period, when the judgment
OF men was more or less vitiated by their
passions, the negro rs member OF the po-
litical body recedes in the good opinion OF
even the northern white men who, q few
wears ago, were loudest in protesting belief
Ill MS pOliilCd nlutNS. ltu VI lttu y
ago a negro was here and there elected by
q northern constituency to some petty
office. No one hears OF such an occurrence
now. AS a factor in the political life OF
this part OF the country the negro has been
dropped.
At the bottom of this Is the unavoidable
recognition OF that gulf between two races
which are incapable OF being assimilated
or OF standing together on The same social
plane. The "coIOr line" is social river
OF blood between two distinct races which
cannot be oblterated. From social life it
passes inevitably into political life, and
there, also, there is no potency OF human
laws that can erase il. Government
power can make the negro and the
white man ''equal before the law"
but il cannot. open to the negro the
white mans drawing-room, the white
mans favor, nor the white mans political
trust. Malone and all other party dema-
gogues may preach obliteration OF the
color line in politics, but The utmost extent
OF the obliteration they can achieve will be
a matter OF form, not a matter OF reality.
The naturally antagonistic ingredients may
be mechanically mixed. as they have been
by Malone and his lieutenants in Virginia,
but they cannot be chemically combined.
The color line will still run between the
particles. and the mixture, wherever
the proportions are favorable, will be high
ly explosive.

Democratic majority over all, 2,6l7.


The total. vote cast was 1897, and, as
will he seen from the subioined statement,
this is the largest vote ever polled in the
city, and the Democratic majority larger
than ever before, Notwithstanding that the
election machinery was all in the hands OF
the opposite party. The commissioners,
after careful canvass, were perfectly
agreed as to the above figures.

PERSONAL EXPLANATION.

PERSONAL EXPLANATION.
The Petersburg Inde1-Appeal OF yester-
day publishes communication from VIII
liam Long, tObacconist, of that city. to the
effect that he IL the party who struck Ma
hone at the polls Tuesday during a dis
turbance. Long states that he saw Malone
and his son Butler alight from their car
riage and go directly to the polls. At that
moment difficulty occurred about a
Democratic negro voting, which caused
great confusion and Threatened Sc
rous riot. At this time pistol was
drawn and held up to the crowd as having
been taken from Malone. Long being
pressed by the crowd at this moment,
raised bis hands to clear himself OF the
throng, and as he did so some one struck
him violently on the right hand, which
caused it to strike Malone lightly on the
face. Long says he hopes he did the Gen.
eral no serious harm. lie had no intention
or desire to do bma personal injury; and
as TO bis offer OF 800 TO know "the scoun-
drel or assassin" who struck him, he
Uong) is the responsible party, and he
hopes this statement will be satisfactory.
BUTLER MALONE FINED FIFTEEN DOLLARS.
Butler Malone was before the Mayor OF
Petersburg yesterday to answer the charge
OF carrying a concealed pistol and drawing
the same at the disturbance in the Fourth
Ward precinct on election-day. when his
father was struck in the face. lie was fined
S15. The Mayor took occasion to say to
the crowd that filed the courtroom that
the election here was conducted more
quietly than there was reason to expect.

Boston, November Z, 1SS:

DOoTON, November {, 1865.
Allow me to congratulate you on account
OF the election returns from Virginia. II
seems that Nahone's rule is ended, and
that honor and decency are still triumph
ant in the Old Dominion.
We have secured similar victory here,
and Butter and Malone, the two most no.
toriously corrupt politicians in the coun-
try, are properly rebuked in spite Of their
wealth, brag, and buster. The honest and
honorable men OF both parties have Joined
forces to defeat the demagogue, and the re-
suit IS far better than party triumph. 1t
is the voice OF the people rebuking corrup-
ton and demanding character, honor, and
purity in their leaders.

THE BIG MAJORITY WAS ROLLED UP-A
CORRECTION.
Correspondence Of the Richmond DsDatch.l
NOVEMBER g, 1883.
The official vote OF Augusta varies some
what from that first reported. The total
vote OF Staunton and the county is G,7O5.
The largest ever before cast was in the
Allen-Paul contest. 5.409-see an increase
of 1,296. Allen received the largest vote
and majority ever before polled until this
election. his majority being 1927, and bis
vote 1858. Last Tuesday Echols got 4,0l5
votes Opie, 1900; Fulcher, $3.50;
Hamilton, 1896. EcholS over Fulcher,
1926; Opie over Fulcher, 1910; Opie
over Hamilton, 1884. Out Of thirty
precincts the CoAlitionists carried only
seven. though their party WAS
reinforced by all the employees and at
taches OF the Lunat.c Asylum, the Deaf,
Dumb. and Blind Institution, and the reve-
nue. collectors Office. The asylum car
rage furnished by the State for the Use Of
patients was buSily engaged all day haul
ing vote. 5 to the polls, and was even sent
into the country on that work, some
thing never seen here before. But with it
all the party has received crushing de-
feat, which has so demoralized them they
seem perfectly dazed and bewildered, and
It Is a rare thing to see one OF their leaders
or the street.
To our Democratic workers, the indie
fatieable stanton working club OF twenty.
the various county clubs, and the working
force at the polls, all honor is due for this
greatest victory Augusta county has ever
achieved. II is remarkable fact that every
registered Democrat who was in stanton
was voted just before sunset the last man
was checked off, and there was nothing
left for the Democrats TO do but TO count
their votes. Can any city or town in Vir-
gina say as much?
The people have been up for two nights
yelling themselves hoarSe, and their re-
joicing at the escape OF Virginia from her
disgracefu thraldOm exceeds anything ever
before witnessed here. A public express
sion of this feeling will be given in grand
Notification which will come off in day
or two.
The writer wants to correct an inaccu-
racy in the report OF the shooting on cleo
ton day which appeared in the Dispatch
OF to-day. Croghan, when he shot the ne
gro, was not in the crowd near the polls,
but was standing in the street near the
front entrance TO the cOurt-green and the
negro on the sidewalk. He says he had no
