gress. At the present writing he
is the only one in the field-none
other having yet come forth to
publicly announce his intention of
assuming the role of a gladiator in
the coming contest. Rumor floats
the names OF half dozen aspirants
but individually each and every
one of them is as silent as the
grave for fear that his chances
might be damaged by the publ
cation of his name. Mr.. Cald-

office should be sought for pub

without any secret scheming or
trickery, but that the will of the
party should be openly and fully
expressed through its accredited de-
legates in the nominating district

sissippian of mixed blood; his
name leads back to his grand pa

BLAINE AND LOGAN.

We must admit that there is a
great deal of dissatisfaction on the
part of the republicans as to Mr..
Blaine, and enthusiastic declaration
favorable to Mr.. Logan. Now,
what was to be done? Every pow
er under the sun to defeat Hon.
John A. Logan was resorted to, by
men who had money and other
weapons. Senator Logan is a poor
man, who had not the means to
buy up delegates. Several South
ern Negro delegates lied to him;
and even Perry Carson, who swore
by the power that made him that
he would not desert the Senator,
and if he did, he would receive the
condemnation of the citizens. He
requested us to state through the
columns of this paper, some time
ago, that he was elected as a Lo-
gan delegate, and would vote for
HIM. Carson's first act was to
knife the Senator, even in the alb
sence Of Conger. How can our
friends confide in us, when there
are men who claim to be honora-
BILE play the part of a traitor? 1t
seems that ingratitude is the prln-
ciple of some of the leadiug Ne
groes of the country. Even some
of the Senator's best friends de-
serted him; but there is one whose
heart and principles will 60 down
to posterity as a friend to the par
ty and to our honored warrior and
statesman, and he is Hon. S. P.
Rounds, He was tried and proved
to be the Damon in the crisis.
The ticket is Blaine and Logan;
the so-caled independent voters
are opposed to Blaine; the only
question that must be settled why
was he allowed to be nominated
The ambition of some men was
so great that they could not make
a sacrifice and concentrate on Sen
ator Logan. Blaine and Logan
are the nominees of the Republi-
can party, and 1t is the duty of ev-
cry loyal republican to support the
ticket. We shall support, and ap-
peal to every true American citi-
zen to do likewise. Logan made
BIaine's nomination possible, and
with the name of that distinguish
ed warrior associated, it is our duty
to support the ticket. Logan is
the ticket, and without him the re-
publican party would have been
defeated. Logan has saved the
party and the colored vote. 1t is
said that Blaine does not care for
the negro; we are confident that
Senator Logan would not have
supported him had he been an en-
emy to the race. The colored race
will be convinced, and especially
those delegates from the South
who played the traitors, that Blaine
and Logan will take care OF the |
country, and the sooner the party |
clears itself of such jack-snlpes
as Carl Schurz, Geo. VIM. Curtis |
and others, then there will be har-
mony in the ranks OF the republi-
can party. Let all desert
who desire to desert this
grand old party, but remember
the mission of the republican party
is not yet fulfilled. Colored men
nave a watchful eye to your sur
roundings.
