Even those who are vindictIvely op-
posed TO negro suffrage will not deny
that II presidential electors are assigned
To the south by reason of colored popu-
latiOn, that population ought to be per-
mitted free suffrage in election. To
deny that clear proposition Is To affirm
that a southern white man in the gulf
states Is entitled to double the political
power Of white men in the northern lake
states. It's to affirm that confederate
soldier shall WELD twice the influence
In the nation that union soldier can.
aud that perpetual and constantly in
creasing superiority shall be conceded
to the southern white man in the gov
eminent Of the union. Ifthat be quietly
conceded in this generation, it will har-
den into custom until the badge of
inferiority will attach TO the northern
white man as odiously as ever Norman
noble stamped 1t upon Saxon churI.
This subject is Of deep interest TO the
laboring men of the north. With the
southern democracy triumphant in their
states and In the nation, the negro will
be compelled TO work for Just such wa
ges as whites may decree, wages which
will amount, as did the supplies of
slaves, to bare subsistence, equal i'm
cash to perhaps thirty-fve cents per
day, il averaged over the entire south.
The white labOrer i'm the north will soon
feel the destructive effect OF this upon
his own wages.
The republicans have clearly seen
from the earliest days of reconstruction
that wages in the south must be raised
to just recompense of the laborer or
wages in the north ruinously lowered.
and the party have steadily worked for
the former result. The reverse mfiu-
ence will now be set in motion, and that
condition of Affairs produced, which
years ago Mr.. Lincoln warned the free
laboring men of the north, will prove
hostile to their Independence, and will
inevitably lead to a ruinOus reduction OF
wages.
A mere difference in color of skin viii
not suffice to maintain an entirely diff
ferent standard OF wages in contiguous
and adjacent states, and the voluntary
will be compelled to yield to the invol-
untary.

Dan o,Leary Dismissed.

The directors of the indianapolis Base ball Club
met ON Saturday evening to discuss several mat
tiers of interest and Importance, and at least one
result of the conference will be received with
surprise. Manager Dan OLeary was dropped
from the clubs list both as a player and man
ager, and the announcement is made that he is
no longer connected with the club in any capa-
city. A director said to Journal reporter, last
night, that OLeary's dismissal was due to sew
eral breaches of discipline of late. No formal
action toward the selection of his successor was
taken, but it is given out that either Harry
Dean, of this city, or a man from Holyoke.
Mass. would be selected, the probabilities favor
ing the former. The club is also negotiating for
two new players one to take OLeary's place in
the field and the other to cover base

SERIOUS CONFEDERATION.
Partial Destruction by Fire of the Street
l.tt Railway COmpany's Stables

The stables of the Citizens Street Railway
Company, at the corner of Louisiana and Ten
hessee streets, caught fire yesterday morning
shortly before o'clock, in the second story
where the hay was stored There was some de-
Jay in sending in the alarm, as the signal wires
of the department on that circuit had been bro
ken during the previous night, and the flames
had spread over the entire southeastern half of
the building before the fremen could reach the
place. The water in some of the hydrants had
been frozen by the extreme cold weather, and the
department was compelled to work under great
disadvantages. The water which was thrown on
the burning building frcze quickly, and by the
time the flames extinguished it was
encased in coat of ice, resem-
bling, in its rough and ragged
formation stalactite form The firemen suffered
considerably from the cold The ears of John
King and the fingers of Joe Casper were frozen,
while several others were more or less frost bit
ten. The fire was confined principally to the
second story and although the lower half of the
southeastern quarter of the building was badly
damaged, the mules were got out and none
were lost in the flames. The Office of the com
pany on Louisiana street was badly damaged but
was not detroyed.
The loss is estimated at from S., 900 to &c. 000
There is an insurance on the property amount
ing TO $39 900 placed by Cleaveland q Adams as
follows: In the Royal, of Liverpool, Sc 900; Nor
witch Union. of England, 81 900; Northern As
surance of London. S. 000 Springfield Fire and
Marine. of Springfield Mass, Sc, 900; Union, of
California, $4,000 Girard, of Philadelphia, Insur-
ance Company of North America,

of Philadelphia, Lion Fire of London,
and American Insurance Company of New
York. each 81, 0O0; Hanover Insurance Company
of New York, Commercial Union, of London,
London Liverpool and Globe, Guardian. of Lon.
don, New Hampshire Fire Company and Roches-
ter German of New York, each $500. Besides
the hay which was burned, patterns for the con
struction of cars to the value of $1,000 were de-
stroyed The origin of the fire is unknown.
The burning of the building will interfere
some, Colonel johnson says, with the running of
cars, as fewer mules can now he kept in read-
ness for use, and, therefore, fewer trips will be
made over some of the lines until the damage to
the building can be repaired.
The fremen are under obligations TO some of
the residents of the neighborhood and to Charlie

warm weather may be expected by tomorrow
and it is believed that the mercury will rise to
about twenty degrees above zero.
There has been great deal Of suffering among
the poor people Of the city and a number of per
sons have been slightly frost-bitten. Two or
three streetcar drivers have been slightly
Frozen but deaths from cold have
been reported. The street car company has been
furnishing the drivers with hot coffee along the
different lines, and this has aided them some in
Keeping up warmth. Several fire plugs have
been burst from cold, but workmen were EN-
ployed yesterday in thawing out the ice and re
pairing the mains, which will probably all be
placed in good condition to-day. The steam
radiators in number of the public
buildings were also burst, but no
great damage resulted. The harvest of ice has
been large and will be much larger before the
wave has entirely passed. The consoling assur
ance can be given that 'the break" has come.
The signal service bulletin shows that at 10
o'clock last evening the temperature north and
west of here had risen considerably during the
preceding twenty four hours. Here the rise dur
ing the same time had been 12o, with the pros
pect of gradual return of the mercury up into
the twenties during the next two or three days.

The Local Ten,perature.

The weather, although still cold enough to
freeze the blood in one of Ella Wheeler's heroes,
had moderated very pereeptibly last night.
During Saturday night the thermometer indi-
Gated 20 below Zero when at the lowest, and
during yesterday the temperature gradu-
ally moderated, until in the afternoon,
at 2 o'clock, the mercury had risen
to one degree above zero. There was a slight
fail during the evening and last night at TO
o'clock it was only two degrees below. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that the cold wave has
passed, and that the temperature, instead
OF getting colder, will gradually become
warmer. From present indications comparatively
