To the Colored People.

just before the great political
struggle which resulted In the over
throw of the Republican adminislra-
tions, we gave our colOred citizens
some good advice. Since the cleo
zion it is oppnrtuDe for US to again
address chem. They acted so well
in this District, that it is q pleasant
duty for Us TO encourage them 10
every possible way, and to assure
them, they may rely upon the CON
servative and just people of the
South. We regret even the silly
Jokes that some of our race have
INDUCED in at their expense. We
hope that all good citizens will take
the trouble to inform the cOlored
people, that not one single right Of
theirs will be endangered by the
election of Democratic President.
They will 60 on just as before earn
ing their own living, with the differ
ence in their favor of having the
good will and God speed of all the
whites, who will now have no cause
whatever to be the least on their
guard against corrupt and incompe-
tent rule.
In point of fact the result of the
elections throws the responsibility
Of justice to all the races in the
South squarely on on the shoulders
Of the Democratic party. AS that
responsibility is, or is not faithfully
borne so will the party retain power
or lose it In the future. The last
election was entirely too close for
com fort, and the Democratic party
will have a short lease of power il
it does not prove itself equal to
being just to all races and classes in
the South, and deport itself with
becoming modesty. If the white
citizens OF the South fall short Of
their duty, now that there is moth
ing in tue way of it, the Democratic
party will be hurled from power,
and kept out for an indefinite period
of time.
The party in the South has con-
stantly asserted that there was u
dangerous race issue in the South,
and that the Republican party was
responsible for it 1t now remains
for the Democratic party to prove
Ibis, hy showing itself fully equal
20 protecting every citizen, white
and black, in all his rights guaran-
iced by the constitution, the amend
,nents and the laws. A vast ma.
joriLy of the white citizens are de-
| termined that this shall be done, and
We voice the entire best sentiment OF
the South in assuring our colured
,ellOw-cilizens that this will be done.
II is safe TO ssC, that more conces-
>ions will he made to our colOre,i
citizens than ever before, and We
firmly believe there are better times
coming for all -Vichs6urg Com

Crop Reports.

The latest crop report of the
Agricultural Department is some
what more favorable than the
previous one. The long absence Of
killing frost has been most adj
vantageous to the cotton, AID would
he still more SO if that staple had
not been affected nv the long con
tinued drouth we had this summer
and fall, which stopped the vitality
of the cotton, so that even the good
weather that followed could not re-
vive it. This drouth. by the by,
which began in July, is not yet fully
broken in some portions of the South
west.
With all these visitatioDs, with
drouth and unfavorable weather,
the crop will exceed that of 1888,
which was 100000. The yield per
acre, however. is small, being lowest
in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and
Texas. The Agricultural Depart
ment places Arkansas at the head OF
the list with a yield of 200 pounds
10 the acre, Louisiana coming second
with 100 pounds, Virginia third
with $50, and Mississippi and North
Carolina following with ITS.
