ored citizenship is blind and nnreason-
ing allegiance to the Republican party.
White men alone have the right to ex-
ercisc the privilege of an American
citizen in voting as they please. Should
the negro dare to disobey his Rcpub-
lican masters he is considered AS incli-
gible to any office, and when, as in the
case of Mr.. Matthews, the question OF
confirming his appointment comes be-
fore Republican body, it is decided ut
once, without any disguise, on the
beautiful principle OF the right of Re-
publicans over the political opinions of
the colored race.-AiJany Argus.

Matthews was rejected on the
theory that no negro has the right to
be Democrat. The colored friends
who went to Washington in his behalf
were informed that Republican Sem
ators do not recognize Democratic
negroes, do not concede their freedom
of political opinion, and do not pro-
pose to reward what they consider
apostasy by sanctioning their promo
tion under Democratic Government

-President Cl6yeland vetoeu al

President Cleveland vetoeu an
other pension bill the other day, that
of man named Ross, who had been
dead since February last. In life Mr..
Ross had struggled hard to get his
claim for pension allowed by Re-
publican commissioner, but failed.
The only cause assigned for tho veto
of the bill was the death of the man
the bill aimed to help. Perhaps the
reason was insufficient from Repub-
lican standpoint -Des 1ioines Leader.

Lawrence Barrett AS "LanciOtto,' Gives
More Til III satisfaction.
Mr.. Lawrence Barrett and his excellent
company presented the tragedy Fran
ceSca da Rimini" at the Opera House last
evening, with Mr.. Barrett as "Lanciotto,
the H~unchback." Notwithstanding the
unusually steep" prices q fair audience
assembled to witness the performance.
For some reason the play was considerably
shortened, but nevertheless the audience
was we'll pleased, the curtain being called
up after every act hut one. Mr.. Barrett's
acting needs no encomiums here, and the
dramatization of Dante's story gave him
full opportunity for the display of his
powers. The plot is arranged with telling
effect, the incidents of each act leading
naturally TO the climax, and the whole
centcring in the final act, which is intense
with passion and ends with a triple TRACE
dy-the assassination of Francesca and
Count Paola" and the suicide of Ian
The audience was fair rs to size.

"a SOAP

Thursday evening Mr.. Il. j. Farron will
present that laughable comedy, "a Soap
Bubble" at the Opera House. A recent
issue OF the Cincinnati COMMERCIAL gazette
says: "a Soap Bubble" opened at Havlin's
Theatcr yesterday. The attendance at
both the matinee and night performance
was unusually large. In the evening the
house was packed to its utmost holding
capacity. If public opinion is correct in
its criticism Of Il play, and if hearty and
sustained applause is a true measure of
public opinion, then "a Soap Bubble"
has fulfilled the mission i'll the dramatic
sphere that its author intended that it
should-namely, that OF provoking honest,
hearty laughter-laughter that comes
from the heart and leaves II feeling of
complete satisfaction. The different roles
were well presented.
