senator Buffers Bill and the Ne
gPOes.

dicates that Senator Buffers Dill 10

-,,D,,1ar in that state. 1t isn't popular IN
INV southern state. The Southern people,
Il i true. would like to be rid of the spies
and informers which the internal revenue
system supports, but there is not as mucn
ground for complaint against internal
rsyeuue officials as there used to be. Inc
: Southern people know that II lnternal
ravenue taxes are abolished II Will De
long while before there viii be any
material reduction in the talH' nat
they want is cheap necessaries' not cheap
whisky. They do not care now GEAR
whisky is. In a number OF southern
States there is a rapidly growing temper
anca movement. This movement Is not
supported alone by those enthusiasts VINO
desire TO save people from the evil enects
of intemperance. 1t is advocated anu
aided bv planters, farmers and taX-pay-
ara generally. who see that whisky i'm
noses additional burdens upon them in
the shape of heavy criminal expenses and
lessons their ability to bear these bur
deps by destroying their laborers. WINS
XIV is the greatest enemy Of the negro. IL
is impossible to approximately estlmate
the proportion Of the earnings OF the ne
oroes az the south which is spent FOR
whisky. but 1t is safe to assume that IL Is
greater than the amount they spend Tor
bread. clothes and the education OF their
children. The belief is that intemper-
60 increase. ana
It is certain that as lntemperahce III
creases their worth as laborers VIII de-
! crease. Free whisky would encourage
| intamnerance. because it could be more
/ easily obtained. Make whisky cheap and
the negroes would buy it by the gallon IN
| stead of bv the dram. The whisky jug
! and demijohn would soon become
| familiar objects in their cabins.
The very cbeapness of the article would
be a temptation for them to buy it. Under
sucb circumstances the improvement IN
their condition would be slow. If, how
oyer the cost Of necessaries were lessened
the tendency would be to encourage the
| negroes. They would be able, perhaps 10
| save something from their wages ana
eventually purchase such implements ana
tools as they would need to cultivate
small patches of ground for themselves
Thev would see the possibility OF pur-
chasing small, comfortable homes, and
would strive to accomplish that object
The effect of free whisky on the negro
poDulation is one strong reason why the
| Butler bill is not popular in the oouth.
The planters want their laborers I'M
proved, not demOralized. so Tar as the
white people of the South are concerned
there can be no question that they would
prefer cheap necessaries to cheap whisky

bnt not Until recently have any wealthy

to make the water power availab for
manufacturing purposes. a strong
syndicate hXsjust been formed for the
purpose Of taking advantage Of the ex-

a corporation has been organized
under the name of The Little Falls

and the articles Of Incorporation fled

movements Of some we should judge
that they did not desire one. If they
have letter 10 mail they take it to Lit

that the postmaster should distribute
their mail for nothing. The mail leaves

there is usually about one or two lstters

will have from 20 to 80. The pos,m aslor
gets 100 per cent. on all the stamps he
cancels, SO that if I've has even five letters

FolloNiny is the reply of Hon. n.

preacher published in Hast weeks Tran
script:
Little Fails Feb. IA, 1884
Rev. J. Johnson, White Earth, MINI:
Dear Sir-You may be assured that
read yours of the 18th inst to me with
no ordinary degree of interest, and
must confess that l vas not little
surprised at its conten1s, not because
I did not think there were many coed
people residing at White Earth, but
because thought their residence there
Was likely under duress,
My letter in the newspaper point
ing out the wrong and shameful treat
ment ofsonfe of the Chippew wa Indians
to which you refer, was written by me
pursuant to the dictates ola sense of
duty. I am poor as they are and can
personally assist them only by asking
that Justice be done them; and espec-
tally that those whe have always been
loyal and friendly to the whites shall
not be Disseminated against. as has
been done as rule since the war and
trouble of 1862. I am sorry to say
that cannot accommodate you with
few copies of the paper containing my
letter, as the sample numbers are all
used up. If occasion and demand shall
require, I shall revise and have it
reprinted.
You will please remember nae to my
friend the chief, who brought you the
paper containing my letter so early
one morning for you to read, and who
So warmly expressed his approval of
my feeble effort to secure justice for
my brave and honest red brethren.
AS be expressed to you strong de-
sire to shake hands with me, aAd fear
Ing that may never have the pleasure
of meeting him, I will authorize you
to shake hands with him for me, and
you will ple%se give him good hearty
shake. I>have known you by sight and
reputation for at least a quarter Of
century, and, have yet to hear
aught against yourcharacter. I there
fore, believe you to be an honest man
and that, you are devoting your life
and energies in a commendable effort
to elevate and better the condition of
your race. Words Of approved and
commentator fromfsuch AMMAN are, I
assure you, highly valued by me.
Hoping to hear from you again I am
with much regard, your pale faced
brothet, N. RICHARDSON.
