The CoLoRED PEOPLES ORGAN
The Baltimore Vindicator, . news
paper edited by j. Wesley Adams,
Jr., and published as the organ sOi
colOred citizens, has recently made
its appearance. In long editorial
it urges the colored men to unite in
dependently of the Republican party
on account Of the spirit shown in the
removal Of Col. Dirty and in the bad
treatment of the colored Republicans,
and adds: "If, by our alliance with
the Republican party, elections are
made doubtful, our strength, when
united in q separate organization, is
apparent" The Vindicator, as an
independent Journal, advises that the
colored voters should sever their con-
nection with the parties and organize
independent of either, and in casting
their votes let neither party ner race
impulse determine their action, but
an earnest desire to make their mark
in the higher arena of citizenship"
Below are few paragraphs clip
ped at random from the editorial col.
umns:
ave did not have any colored
judges or clerks of election during the
Judicial contest of 1882, although we
had Republican supervisors of cleo
ton"
Isaiah Fl. Bayne, ESQ.,, of Caroline
county, declares that the colored men
of this State do not owe their sup.
port to any political party. So does
II. III. Hughes, Esq, of Hartford
county, and a meeting ofleading col
ored men held on the 22d ult. decid-
ed 80, too. The sentiment is grow
ing"
"Mr. G. r. P. Mason was appointed
a substitute letter carrier BY Post
master Adreon year this month.
The Postmaster has had opportunity
TO promote him. White men. an
pointed since him, and not as COM
petent as he is, have been promoted,
and why not promote him We pause
for reply"
"Holton wants the Republican
nomination for governor. Can he Get
it? Has he deserved it? IF he gets it.
can he be elected? There are 1000
registered colored voters in this State:
nearly 10000 in Baltimore CITY alone
who have formerly voted the Repub-
lican ticket. Take the hint, gentle
menI"
Let as unite, and all the negro
haters in and out of the Republican
party cannot keep US in the back
ground, nor stay our progress. Right,
IN Its majesty must and will prevail.
We have all to gain and nothing to
lose. Then let US make q bold and
united strike for Independence, and
we will cease to be mere political
tools"
Inc white Republican bosses have
sent out their negro emissaries to
sqneleh the independent spirit now
so strongly taking root among the
colored voters. But the tidal wave
is too powerful. The 'b-hoys are be-
ing hit on every side by the senti-
ment: We are free and aiming for
. higher realm of citizenship than we
have found in serfdom."

JURISDICTION CT MAGrsTRATEs.-
In the Baltimore city Court of Com
mon Pleas in the case Of E. Shriver
Reese, attorney, &C., va. A. w. Hawks.
Judge Duffy decided that the defend
ants plea, to the jurisdiction should
be sustained, and judgment of non
pros was entered. The Judge decid-
ed that his court had jurisdiction in
matters over 500 and under $500.
but in this case the two notes sued
on were each 500, and the suits
should be brought before q justice of
the peace who had jurisdiction to
that amount. The plaintiff claimed
that the interest due on the notes
made them such a sum above the
jurisdiction of a justice of the peace.
but the Judge decided that maeis-
trate could give Judgment on q note
Tor $lOO and interest, though the to-
tai would be above the amount fixed
in the law as the limits of his iuris-
diction. The subject 10 one of great
Importance, as the question has fire.
quently arisen. and the bar have with
great interest awaited its judicial de-
termination.
OHIo's CoNDrDATE FOR GovERNoR.
Judge Foraker, nominated bv ac-
clamation for governor Of Ohio by
the Republican Convention, il quite
. young man. He Is about So years
Of age, and made his first appearance
Ia politics three years ago. when he
was elected judge of the County
Court of Hamilton county. He en-
tered the army as private soldier ut
the age of Is, became a commissioned
officer at IL, was with Gen. Sherman
on his march through Georgia, and
before the close of the war became a
captain on General Slocum's staff.
He graduated at Cornell University
in the class Of '68. and when only SO
became judge. He is q man OF
honor and lawyer Of ability.
The Philadelphia Press Rep.l saws:
The spring of 1875 saw strong hone
Of Democratic success but it saw none
80 general nor 80 widespread al the
spring of 1888. Current prediction
sets that way; all the Democrats and
many Republicans share in the proph-
ecy that 1884 win see Democrat cleo
ted President. This widespread belief
exists. There is no more use in quar-
reling with il or denying it than in
turning tail to any other fact. Nor
i it accompanied by that general and
universal dread Of Democratic sue
cess which an outlook OF this kind has
aroused in the past.
