A pemocrasie scheme rhwar.ea.

A little scheme of the Democratic County
Commissioners was ohstructed yesterday with
such neatness and promptness that these officers.
who acknowledge Sim Coy as their political
master, were thrown into confusion. When Cor
Oner Stratsord died the sad news had barely
reached general circulation before there were a
half dozen applicants for the Office. The Com
missioners observed some decency in the mat
ter and put off the appointing of his successor
for several days. Commissioner Sahm quietly
laid his vote away from the beginning for DR..
Morrison, but Deputy Coroner Rocker, at the
proper time, showed such strength of indorse
nent that the. Commissioners could not do as
they desired to. There was great deal of con
sui'aton and planning. resulting In Sahm agree
ing to vote for Rocker, with the understanding
that Dr. Morrison should become his deputy.
This plan was accepted. and the deputy coroner
became coroner DR.. Morrison, under the favor
of Sahm, began to lay his wires for the Demo-
cratic nomination at the approaching county con.
vention. DIR. Rocker was also a candidate
but the now deputy, being protected bv
Sahm, as something in the character of a nro.
tege. aud the County Commissioner himself be-
Ing under the influence of Coy, he had no

TERRE HAUTE, Nov. 30.-The commission ap
pointed by the court to make recount of the
votes cast in this county for joint Represents
tive for the counties Of Vermillon, Vigo and
Sullivan, concluded its labors this morning, after
twenty-five hours of unceasing work. Beasley's
net gain is six votes in the county. Downing
Republican, had gained seven votes by the re
count in Vermillion county. No recount was
asked in Sullivan county On the face of the
returns, now, Beaslev has a majority of thirty
one votes. The total vote in this county was
l0,797, and Downing's corrected majority is
500. In addition to the petition for recount.
Downing filed notice of contest The taking
of evidence in this case is set for Dec. 9.
1t will be remembered that Judge Mack, Dem

his action. 1t is needless to say that Judge
Mack is feeling very well satisfied over the re-

bare-faced robbery of votes from his Repub-

There has been no hurry on DR.. Morrison
part to assume the Office under a cloud. Ten
days ago he got his commission from the Gov

OF the Democratic Commissioners began to
show itself Under the statute the
Office being vacant. DIR. Rocker could hold until
his successor by appointment. it is presumed. as

cause he knew he had only fraudulent claim to

plan was to have Rocker resign, with the agree
ment that he was again to become the deputy,
and then the Commissioners would appoint Dr.
Morrison.

to the Office. He presumed that DR..

There was no disposition on the part of the

for record prepared by Mr.. Winters, but they
could not help 1t, and the proceedings will be on

even in silence has good influence in respect
to the standing of the colored race before the
world. The leprous distillinent of American
prejudice against the negro isuot confined to the
United States. America has her missionaries
abroad in the shape of Ethiopian singers, who
disfgure and distort the features of the negro
and distort his language and manners in way
to make him appear to thousands as more akin
to apes than men. This mode of warfare is
purely American, and it is carried on here in
Paris as it Is in the great cities of England and
in the States, so that in many minds no good is
expected to come from the negro.
'In addition 20 the Ethiopian buffoons and
serenaders who presume to represent US abroad
there are malicious American writer's who take
pleasure in assailing US as an inferior ard good
for-nothing race, of which it is impossible to
make anything These influences are very hurtful,
and not only tend to avert from US the sympa
thy of civilized Europeans, but to bring US I'M
