The Negro Vote.

1t has ever been a saving power to
the cause of the people When
anxiety and suspense filed the minds
of the best people of the country
yearning for the success of the Ma
tionaI cause, that vote was given on
the side of National liberty educa-
ton and equal rights to man. 1t
identified itself with all the progress
sive measures Of the country and in-
spired by love for personal freedom
and political liberty, it infused into
the matte nal heart the spirit of loyalty
aud true devotion to our new born
Republic.

THE Democrats of New York owe
to Roscoe Conkling a debt of graft
tude which can never be repaid Mr.
Conkling was at one time the great
est man in the Republican party. To-
day he is the greatest man in America.
He is the only man the weight OF
whose influence decided a Presidential
contest.

Highly Complimentary.

There have already been uttered
several Democratic compliments to-
wards the negro Even the little
poor white children of Democratic
parents, said to several teachers
coming from the Randall school this
week, ''never mind, the Democrats
will turn all the negro schools into
hospitals" This is the feeling among
the Democrats at present.

The next campaign the Republican
party enters into they will not count
so largely upon the disaffection of the
Irish vote; it is not by any means an
uncertain quantity, but solid all the
time for Democracy.

A Glaring Outrage.


1t is an outrage upon the people
of this country that the Democratic
party should triumph at thespo!ls by
such vile, coward'y and damnable
practices as sre used by the heelers
of that party in nearly every South
ern State. To allow the Democratic
party to succeed by such practices is
to snhvert the rnnnlor will Of, the
sovereign people aud to bring all
Constitutional guarantees and NUM-
cipal law into contempt OF honest
men.

THE two great political parties
have had this year the greatest politi
cal contest in the history of the coun-
try. The American people are to be
congratulated that they have passed
through this great contest, and peace
reigns throughout the country. We
believe there has been less blood shed
than in former campaigns since 1860,
but the usual outrages, such as the
intimidation Of voters in the South
and the doctoring Of the returns,
come to us as usual. 1t will be a
great day in this country when every
freeman can express his choice with
out tear or hiudrance. When this
stage shall have been reached III our
politics, then, and not until then, will
this be truly "the home of the brave
and the land of the free"

IT is to be hoped that none of the
colored people will entertain any of
the foolish ideas concerning the pcs
sibility Of the Democratic party
making any effort to interfere with
the rights they enjoy as citizens.
This is Constitutional right, and the
Democratic party being witness of
the advancement made by the colored
people since their emancipation, will
upon every hand extend such en-
couragement as the rapid march OF
progress demands. There will be
nothing done by Cleveland's admin
istration to affect ne privileges of
the colored people. While there are
many individuals who are negro
haters at heart, they will be met by
the severest condemnation whenever
they give expression to their hatred.

After twenty five years of retirement,
in poverty, struggling for supremacy,
to come suddenly in possession of a

to rejoice over.

Killed at n Funeral.

A WASHINGTON LADY STRUCK BY RAILROAD TRAIN
NEAR BALTIMORE.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Adeline Massey, aged
sixty-fve, OF No. TIA Sth street southeast was In
stantly killed at the Frederick road station, near
Baltimore, by being struck by the Chicago limited
express train, which leaves Baltimore at 4:25 p. m
Together with about seventy relatives and friends
She had attended the interment at Loudon Park Of
John Philip Souder. brother OF her son-in-
law, DR.. w. SOuder. After the burial the people
assembled at the platform. There are three trains
passing In quick succession, and the ticket agent,
Joseph kingsley, who also acts as baggage-master
states that he found it necessary to leave open the
door Which leads from the station down to the
track, and SO number OF the party got down
stairs just as the express, OF which Jacob Frey is
engineer, came along Albert Souier. the little
grandson of Mrs. Massey, ran across the track She
started after him, and everybody shouting to her
seems TO have confused her. She stopped between
the two tracks, and the engine struck her on the
head and right shoulder, crushing both and killing
her instantly. Justice Pilert was notified and a
jury empanCled.
After hearing the evidence the jury found "that
she came to her death by neglect Of the Baltimore
ana Potomac railroad company In not giving the
proper signal OF ringing the engine bell, and In not
Keeping the platform gate closed until the arrival
OF the accommodation train" The remains were
enclosed In coffin and brought to her home In this
city last night.
