A Candid Northwestern Journal.

The Chicago Times, after abiding to the
late Danville, Virginia, riot, between whites
and blacks, says;
The nature of white Americans is not diff
ferent in 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
let the negroes comprise the electoral ma
iority-and the country 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 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 north
ern white men admire him, trust him, or have
any more belief In his fitness for the discharge
of public functions than southern society has.
Moreover, it is a notable and instructive fact
that as we recede from the war period, when
the Judgment of men was more or less vita
ted by their passions, the negro as Il member
of the political body recedes in the good opin-
ion of even the northern white men who, d
few years ago, were loudest in protesting be-
lief i'll his political fitness. Ten or fifteen
years ago IL negro was here and there elected
by northern constituency 10 some petty
Office. No one hears OF such an occurrence
now. As a factor in the political life of this
part ofthe 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 color line is a social river of blood
between two distinct races which cannot be
obliterated. From social life it passes inevi-
tably into political life, and there, also, there
is no potency of human laws that can erase it.
Government power can make the negro and
the white man equal before the law" but it
cannot open to the negro the white man s
drawing room, the white man favor, nor the
white mans political trust. Malone and all
other party demagogues may preach oblitera-
ton of the color line in politics, but the ut
most extent of the obliteration they can
achieve will be matter of form, not matter
of reality. The naturally antagonistic ingre-
dents may be mechanically mixed, as they
have been by Malone and his ieutenants in
Virginia, but they cannot be chemically COM
bned. The color line will still run between
the PARTICLES and the mixture, wherever the
proportions are favorable, will be highly ex
plosive.

Meeting of Congress.

Congress will meet on Monday, December
3rd. The Senate will be composed of thirty
eight Republicans, thirty Democrats, and
Malone and Riddleberger. The Democrats
will have majority of about seventy in the
House, and will have no difficulty in controll
ing that body. As the session Immediately
preeedes the presidential election the Demo-
cratic and Republican prospects Of success
may be Kindred Or improved by the conduct
of the representatives ofthe parties.
The chief aim of the Republican leaders
will be to lead the Democrats into excuses,
and it will be the duty Of the Democrats to
pursue conservative course, to consider only
such legislation as seems to be imperatively
demanded, to limit the appropriations to the
lowest amounts consistent with an efficient
public service, and to reduce the revenues, SO
that the taxes will be lighter and the surplus
less.
This, it seems, is all that is demanded, but
as to reducing the revenue two opinions pre-
vail. One is to lessen the tariff the other to
abolish the internal revenue system. That
the tariff should be revised connot be success
fully denied, but the internal revenue system
should go first. The amount now realized
from it about equals the surplus, and there
would be saved the FIVE millions of dollars
annually that it costs to collect it. In doing
away with the system, the country would get
rid of host of officials, spies and informers,
part of whose duties for some years past has
been, and is, the packing and controlling of
political conventions, at the dictation of the
appointing power.
After the internal revenue system is abol-
ished, and with it the thousands of Offices, the
tariff lists can be revised and increased or les
soned, in accordance with the needs of the
government It was revised last session, and
although it WIS unjustly done, there should be
no change for the present.
Let there be no subsidies in money, bonds
or lands, no river and harbor steals, no jobs
nor schemes for emptying the treasury, and
as few acts should be passed as possible.
Don't waste time in useless debate. Enact
such laws as are necessary, pass the usual APP
preparation bills and adjourn.

Catching at straws.


The Republicans were beaten again in the
elections of 1888. They managed to defeat
Ben Butler in Massachusetts, who won in
1882 by personal not party strength, and they
elected their candidates in Pennsylvania,
where Democrat had won in 1882 by reason
of splitin the Republican party. They were
entitled to both states, as they had been uni
formly Republican for twenty years and more.
So glad were they to hold these states, that
the rural press put up their coons and chick
ems, and they even put New York in the Re
publican column. If the New York election
is a comfort to Republicans they are easily
comforted Gov. Cleveland was elected in
New York in 1882 by 1872, 600 majority. That
majority did not show Democratic strength.
Very many Republicans did not vote and many
voted for Cleveland. Cleveland's vote then
was not equal to Hancock in $780, No one
expected a repetition of the majority of 1882
this year. Yet, because the whole Democratic
ticket did not have 1872, 900 majority last week,
the Republicans claim victory. The fact is
the Democrats elected four of the five state
candidates by about $4,000 majority. The
other was defeated by the liquor dealers, who
voted against him because he was said to be
a prohibitionist. The $4,000 majority for the
four shows the real vote, and shows New
York to be Democratic state.

Ben Butler will run for Governor again
next year. He says the largest vote ever
polled in the state was cast last week; that
bribery and corruption was used against
him, and some ffy-odd prominent Dem
ocrats were opposed to his election, yet
he was beaten by only 10000 votes. He
thinks good Democratic Presidential ticket
in 1884 will receive the electoral vote of the
state, and that he intends to be a candidate
for Governor so that the Republican party will
require all its energies to fight him, and have
neither men nor money to send to Ohio and
Indiana. Butler has increased the Demo-
cratic vote in three years from $4,000 to
152. 600.

Temperance Party and Ticket.

From the Baltimore american
Mr.. William Daniel, of the State Temper
ance Alliance, was questioned by a represen-
tative of the american on the temperance
features in the election of Tuesday last. Mr.
Daniel spoke of the result as matter for
congratulation among the prohibitionsts, and
seemed satisfied that the local option move
ment was making good progress. When asked
what he thought of the effect of Tuesdays
election on the temperance cause, he said:
"Well, it scores a good triumph in the de-
feat of Joyce, which could never have been
done except by the opposition of the local
option men. We intend to go right to work
and organize a local option party. Next year
we will run candidates for the City Council,
and in two years we will bring out candidates
for the legislature. Our ticket for the legis-
lature will be made up several months before
the election, consisting one-half of Republi-
cans and the other half of Democrats, and in
the Third Legislative district we expect to
elect every one of our candidates for the
House ofDelegates. Throughoutthec counties
we shall organize branches of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, Bands of Hope,
and all sorts of societies to carry on the tenn
perance work.
1t may as well be understood that the Leg
islatures lately elected in New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut and Virginia will not be
required to choose United States Senators.

McLane's Vote.

Hon. Robert N. McLane received 1921
more votes than Hamilton did in 1879, and
Holton II, O39 more than did Gary, Mr.. Ham
ilton' competitor. Hamilton's vote was 3d.
I'll; McLane's 92,69s. The vote last week,
upon its face, would indicate greater Repub-
lican increase than Democratic. The Demo
Gratis are not yet fully registered and the voters
did not turn out as well as the Republicans
did. The Al, 900 negro voters are as certain
to vote as election day is certain to roll around
and the white Republican vote was nearly all
polled last week. There will probably be
fuller registration and fuller Democratic vote
next year, and Maryland will roll up $4,000
or 10000 for Democratic President, nearly
500 of which will be contributed by the
Democracy of Carroll.

The Baltimore Sun, as usual, displayed
great energy in gathering the returns from the
various counties and voting places of Mary
land on Tuesday night of last week, and out
stripped its contemporaries. Down on the
Eastern Shore the results were gathered by
special couriers, some of whom used boats in
crossing rivers, and others rode horseback or
used hand cars on railroads. The longest
ride by courier was forty five miles, in Dor
chester county. In the extreme western
counties special couriers were employed also.
The news in every county was taken to the
county town and from thereit was telegraphed
to the San. Those in the employ of the San,
correspondents and couriers, and those who
carried returns to the county seats not en-
ployed, probably numbered three hundred per-
sons. Add to these those who compiled the
vote at the San office and the compositors,
proof readers and pressmen, and the election
news given in the paper Wednesday morning
represented the work of perhaps four hundred

The elections next year will be for Con-
gressmen as we'll as President. Two districts
in this state are now represented by Republic
cans-Holton in the fifth, and McComas in
the sixth. Hoton last year had 1886 MAORI
ty, and McLane last week carried the district
by 1906 McComas carried his district last
year by 1880 majority, and McLane came
within 373 votes of carrying it. A full regis.
tration and full vote by the Democrats will
redeem both of these districts in 1884,

According to the Washington correspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun, Hart B. Hotonis
in Washington, and in talking about the re-
cent campaign in this state said he was not
surprised at his defeat, and did not expect to
be successful. Mr.. James A. Gary, Mr. Hol.
toms brother-in-law, predicted in speech at
Ellicott City that Holton would be trium-
phantIy elected, and, if we are not in error,
Mr.. Holton himself predicted his own success
in several of his great speeches ~ just prior
to the election. In his talk here two weeks
before the election, while not positively as
sorting his belief in his own election, Mr.
Holton certainly intmated it. Now he says
he is not surprised at his defeat.

A New Volume,

The ADVOCATE enters upon its nineteenth
year with this issue, having been established
in November, 1865. 1t has steadily grown
from the day of its foundation, until it now
has, we believe, larger circulation than any
county paper in the state, with perhaps one
exception, and growing advertising patron
age Business men appreciate the value of a
large circulation among paying patrons, and
use the ADVOCATE columns literally.

A Republican View of 1t.

The Republican newspapers have been en-
deavoring to FIRE the Northern heart and to
wave the bloody shirt over the riot between
whites and blacks at Danville. They have
labored hard to revive sectionalism, and been
guilty of the grossest Misrepresentation to ac-
complish their aim. The intermingling of
the people of the two sections since 1865, and
the better understanding subsisting between
them, is death to such partisan attempts.
Besides, Mr.. Dezendorf, Virginia Republi-
can congressman, adds his testimony, and
places the blame for the unfortunate affair
where it belongs. He says:
s'No baser SANDER was ever uttered against
any people. 1t was a peaceful and fair cleo
ton. The Danville riot was the legitimate
outgrowth of Mahone's methods and the ma
tural result of the inhammatory speech made
by his man Sims the night before the disturb
ance. That this single occurrence should be
used as text from which to preach that the
shotgun policy has been inaugurated in Vir-
ginia for the purpose of firing the Northern
heart is an unwarranted Misrepresentation of
facts and wicked resort of base minds, and
whoever does it | regard as an enemy of his
country "

NEW YORK, 1884.
About sixty million copies of THE SUN have gone

get continuous strip of interesting information COM
mon sense wisdom sound doctrine, and sane wit
long enough to reach from Printing House squareto
the top of Mount Copernicus in the moon, then
back to Printing House square, and then three
quarters of the way back to the moon again.
But THE SUN is written for the inhabitants OF the
earth this same strip of in tellgenee would girde
the globe twenty-seven or twenty-eight times.
If every buyer of copy of THE SUN during the
past year has spent only hour over it, and If his
wife his grandfather has spent another hour this
newspaper in 1888 has afforded the human race
thirteen thousand years of steady reading, night ana

1t is only by little calculations like these that
you can form any idea of the circulation of the
most popular of American newspapers or of its in
fluence on the opinions and actions of American
men and women.
THE sun is and will continue to be. a newspaper
which tells the truth without fear of consequences,
which gets at the facts no matter how much the
process costs, which presents the news of all the
