THERE has been quite an active
movement for a year or more passed,
in some of the more Southern States
looking to the final migration of the
colored race to Liberia and other desir.
able points on the African coast.
The late reelection of Hon. I'll. r.

to the presidency, and the consecra-
tion as Episcopal bishop of Liberia of
Rev. Samuel d. Ferguson, who emf
grated there with his parents from
Charleston when but six years old,
both educated in that republic, alike
demonstrate the capacity OF the color
ed race and the value of African col
onization.
Bishop William Taylor, who pre-
sided at the Liberia annual conference
last February, and who preached in
all the leading towns of the republic,
writes Liberia is the garden spot Of
West Africa splendid soil, well wat
cred, good spring water for use, and a
salubrious climate
The bark Monrovia has recently ar

OFFENSIVE PARTNERSHIP The
New York Evening Post, good au-
thority on such subjects, defines "of-
fensive partisanship" to mean parts
anship while in Office. 1t is only in
Office that partisanship can become of
fensive at all. The rule
laid down by President Cleveland is
simply that you may be as partisan as
you please, and offensive as you please
as long as you are in private life.-
That is your plain right under the
Constitution. But it, you take Gov
ernment Office, you must cease, not
being partisan, but offensive in your
partisanship. You may vote as you
please, and you may give the reasons
for your voting in a moderate and
quiet manner; but you must not pa
rade your partisanship in way to an
noy members of the other party.
What President Cleveland now re-
quires is that be must not
take for political work any portion Of
the time for which the Government
pays him. - The cardinal idea
Of civil service reform is that he gets
his bread and butter from al the tax
payers. In short, bipartisan in
