Notwithstanding the standing Republi-
can charge that the colored people are
denied the exercise of their political rlgnts
in the Southern States, the Republicans Of
more than one Northern state are being
arrsigued for having denied the negro the
recognition TO which he thinks be is en-
titled.
1t is well known that the colored voters
of Ohio are on the point Of actual rebel
lion against the Republican party, ana 1t
appears % be very probable that a large
proportion, il not "a majority OF them, will
refuse % support the candidates Of that
party IN the approaching election IN that
state. As thore are about 22,000 c0lored
voters IN Ohio, and as the parties there
are pretty evenly matched, the Importance
of the coored vote is not 10 be iehtlyesti
mated. The Republicans cannot afford 10
spare any OF the colorcd voters without
greatly hazarding their chances Of sue
cess.

handing recognition 40 the hands of the
Republicans. They have supported the
RepubHcan ticket for yeara. aud have

are 200 colofcd voters, aud with them

These colored Republicans have long ap.
pesled iuyain tor some substantial token
Of recognition. The other day they held

orod man for the Legislature. The coI-
ored orators were quite outsposon iu their

M siLnAtion in Nirsinia.

=
The Virginia Readiusters appear to
have been let down from the state Of tenn
porary exaltation which they were
raised TO by the decision Of the Supreme
Court in the coupon cases. For two or
three weeks Malone and his supporters
were very confident that the Democrats
were 80 badly panic stricken that they
would not be able to rally so as to make a
determined and successful fight in the
approaching campaign.
For few days the Democrats did seem
to be dazed by the decision. 1t was SO
unexpected and 50 contrary to the opin-
ions OF the best constitutional lawyers
throughout the country, and apparently
so sweeping and Sc disastrous in its effects
that none but those VINO cared nothing for
the good Of the commonwealth could at
first look at it with eqanimity. But
when the first alarm and feeling of de-
preston passed away it was apparent
that the state was not so badly damaged
as it appeared TO be.
One cheering thing during the most
gloomy period was that the better class
Of people Of Virginia never once lost faith
in the Democratic party, and though Ma
hone and his fellow wreckers gloated over
the general distress, and hoped to make
capital out of the situation, they were
soon convinced that they had been more
effectively and permanently repudiated
than was the case with any portion of the
State debt, and that there was little or no
hope Of eyer regaining their influence and
power.
Now the Democrats of Virginia are con-
tident that they will be able to complete
the work of redeeuing the State. Candi-
dates for the Gubernatorial nomination
are making their appearance, which
shows that there ia now little doubt of
Democratic success.
While this is true the MahOneites are
correspondIngly depressed. They see
that they have not gained by the distress
and confusion as they hoped. What
hurts them worse than anything else,
perhaps, Is the loss Of official patronage
and the ousting of their most active
workers from the post Offices and other
influential positions. Not the least among
the causes Of their depression is the dis
coyery of the fact that they can no longer
count on the solid negro vote.
The Democrats, although the situation
is for them full Of promise, should remem-
Der that they have a willy and unscrupu-
lous foe. They know how to conduct a
campaign under the most untavorable
Influences. Let them organize as thor
oughly as they did in 1888 and fight the
battle as gallantlY as they did that one,
and victory will crown their efforts,

An Apology to Lady Churchill.


Lord Randolph Churchill. so conspicuous
just now in the affairs of the English govern
ment. recalls a good story to be heard at New
York clubs. Lady Churchill. who was one of
the brightest girls ever reared in New York
was one OF the attractive features at a recent
char ty ball in London. Her husband. hot
headed but generous, was one of the fashion
able throng.
While Lady Churchill was executing some
brilliant dash on the piano keys a tall young
fellow with bangs, eye glass and ali the rest
OF dudedOm's paraphernalia, stood near Lord
Churchill. In feminine lisp the tall young
man remarked for his Lordships ear:
"Deuced fine music, you know; but lacks
the veal soul, 1t lacks the veal soul /"
Churchill gave him half -contemptu0us
glance. Tall young man still dispensed his
lisp. he had nothing original 10 say, but his
criticisms made up for what they lacked in
that direction 10y silly personality. he was
in delightful ignorance Of the identity Of his
listener. and seemed amazed by the spirit of
Il low phrase that finally few into his ears
sounding very like this: For a shilling ia

A soothing pauacea TO wounded feelings
came TO the tall young man on the following
day, when card Unexpectedly invited him
to the Churchill drawing-rocm. He wasn't
long in responding. Neither was he long in
departing. He got no further than the hail.
