"a Hopeful Sign.
The Topeka (Kansas) Tribune has this
to say of the recent Commencement
exercises at TougaIoo University:

The Topeka (Kansas) Tribune has this
to say of the recent Commencement
exercises at Tougaloo University:
when Gov Lowry, of Mississippi, and
some of the Confederate Generals and
Colonies that were in the Southern army
can go out to colored College on COM
mencement day and deliver addresses to
the students and take dinner with them, il
seems to us to be a hopeful sign of better
times vet to come in the Sunny South
May God help the good work to go on until
all the preiudices and difficulties between
the white and colored people of the South
shall pass away for ever, and good feelings
and brotherly love take their places or
Southern soil Then will the South bios
som as the rose, and prosper as she never
has before
Although the visitors on this occasion
did not exactly take dinner acith the
students, they were convinced by the
good things set before them that the
University authorities know how to pro-
vide food for the body as well as for the
mind. The interest manifested in the
education of the colored youth of the
State is no new experience, but genera
tions will come and go before some
people, in some portions of our country,
will be ready to accord the whites of the
South any credit in this direction.
Since the ascendancy of home rule in
Mississippi, there has been no step back
ward in this behalf. On the contrary,
the legislation by State, county and
municipal authorities has been as liberal
as the circumstances of our people would
permit. Tougaloo University is doing a
specially good work in the State, and the
small aid that it receives annually from
the State is wisely appropriated and
iudiciously expended.

Turn the Rascals Out.

The wide-awake Washington CORES
pendent of the New Orleans Times Dem
ocrat mentions the timely effort of Hon.
o. r. SIxGLEroS, who has remained in
Washington during the recess, to have
a. T. MORGAN, the noted miscegenation-
ist and strife maker of YazOo fame, re-
moved. MORGAN, it is remembered,
fed from outraged justice in Yazoo
county TO Washington, during the car
pet-bag era in this State, and was quar-
tered upon the public treasury. He is
receiving a salary of 81, 400 in the Pen
| sion Bureau; and as he Is credited to
one Of the counties Of Col. SINGLETON 5
District, that gentleman, with good rea'
son. holds that he ought to be removed
| During the last Presidential canvass, he
produced probably the yilest of all the
Blaine and Logan literature of the
period. 1t was entitled, "Yazoo, or the
Picket Line of Freedom" 1t was an
infiamatory appeal to sectional passions
and was full of the most atrocious cal
umnies against the white Democracy
of the State generally, and of YazoC
county especially. Some of the most
honored citizens of the State were mis-
represented and pasquinaded by the
atrabilsrious scribbler who richly merit:
dismissal
And while speaking OF MoRGAN,we are
reminded of other notorious offender:
claiming TO be from Mississippi, who are
holding office the Departments, an6
should not be retained. For example, II
T. FISHER, who after sojourning in the
State a few years, left it in 1876, tt
| testify before the Senate Investigation
Committee and has not been in the State
since. He is located in the Patent OF
fee, on a salary of 81 800 He was /;
serviceable agent of MORTON, ZACH
| CHANDLER and others in working VI
the ''fraud and outrage business il
Mississippi in those days.
| Doubtless the people of Holme
county can call to mind one JANE
RowEN; he is located in the Land Ofiic,
at a pay Of 81, 400.
In the Department of Justice, Their
is one RALF BALM, a native OF France
credited to Mississippi, and quarters
on a salary of 81, 100 per annum.
There are numerous others whose re
tention in Office under a Democrat
Administration will be an affront t
justice and a cruel burlesque on civ
service reform. For example, EUGEN
WnBoURNE end the CALDWELL broth
ers, red-handed murderers, and fugitive
from justice from Clinton, Kinds cour
ty, Mississippi.
These are few of the numerous PEI
sons who are feeding on the public cri
at Washington, and are charged to Mi
sissippi. We have full confidence tina
they will be turned out as soon as tn
reform machine can be put in runnin
order And the sooner the better.

Threatens to Borrow it.

An esteemed subscriber who has been
reading THE CLARION for many years
thus responds to notice recently sent
him:
"Would send you the money to renew
my subscription, but havne't got it Just
now. Being a farmer, you know money
is very hard to get. If you will con-
tinue my paper | will send youythe first
money 1 get. If you will not, l will
borrow it before | will do without it.
Our good friend need not borrow.
The CLARION will be sent to him
and all other subscribers alike situated
who make similar request. Ninteen-
twentieths of our readers are among the
farmers of Mississippi, and when they
find "money very hard to get" we feel
the immediate effects. That he and all
others who cultivate the soil, may be
amply rewarded by an abundant crop is
our wish.

Mr.. J. w. MCMAsTER has been APP
pointed Postmaster at Hazlehurst in
place of AIr. MEADE, whose retention
in Office was Objectionable to the Presi-
dent for reasons not detailed except in
the partizan newspapers. Mr.. MEADE
has the sympathy and undiminished
confidence of the people of Copiah
county for his efficient services in the
Democratic cause, and especially for
his gallant leadership in the memorable
canvass of 1888. Mr.. McMAsTER, his
successor, happily for this present occa-
sion, was not in the procession" nor
the meetings" which have stirred up
so much commotion; but he is stanch
Democrat and good citizen, and was
very strongly recommended for the
office, He was not one of the original
applicants

The Republicans and the Offices
Chicago Journal.

Chicago Journal.
Just before Gen. Logan left for Wash
ton he said to friend: 81 hope every
Republican who asks to be retained by
the new administration will be turned
out of Office. l have received letter after
letter from Republicans in Office
urging me to exert myself to have them
retained / shall not humiliate myself
in that way. l would rather help tC
get Republicans of that sort out. In
fact it is strange to me that a Republic
can would ask Democratic Admins
tration to keep him in Office. A petition
for retention stands on the same princi
pie. 1t is virtually asking Democrat
for an appointment. If Republican
would not ask for an Office he should
not ask to be retained in one If he is
holding any Office and is asked to remain
on account of his faithful services, it is
another thing. In that case he has 8
right to accept, but he is clearly wrong
in asking to be retained
We applaud Gen LOGAN for the high
stand he has taken. Republicans can
not with decency claim the privilege tc
hold Office under Democratic Admin.
istration and on the same principle can.
not ask to be retained.

Mr.. FORAKER, the Republican nomi
nee for Governor of Ohio, in his first
address tracks closely after the post
election speech of Mr.. BLAINE He
reviyes the sectional issue, and assumes
that the forty votes in the electoral
college acquired by the Southern States
by comforting suffrage on the emanci-
pated race, have been usurped by the
Democratic. party in order to foist it
into power. That's stale argument
but even il it were true, what will he
do about it, Would he deprive the
colorcd sutragans of the elective fran
chise because their votes are not cast to
suit the Republican leaders?
