Over on the east side, where the Ger

increasing number of shops which are
novel in their way and are largely patron
lied in the warm months, and even in
cool weather do n fair trade. They fur
nish all the food eaten in many families,
and do away with the neat and trouble

hernials, who in man cases keep their
wives and their children old enough to

CONSIS TENCYt

the recent tulminatlons oil DIANE anu
Sherman against Democrats, were founded
upon the false assertion that millions OF
colored men were held in a political bond
age in the South by Democrats and were
forced to vote the Democratic ticket or not
vote at all. 1t has occurred to the magnifi-
cent brain Of the magnificent mar from
Maine that there is good picking on the col
orcd bone, hence he shuts his eyes ocold
facts and fires at random. oil the Irishmans
plan that BE jabers III hear the echo
anyhow.
Let us calmly examine the facts in the
case. There are two colorcd members of
congress in the present house, and both
of them are from the hot bed OF Southern
Democracy, viz North and South Caro-
lima. They are the only Republican mem
bcrs from those states, all Others being
Democrats. Now if this fear existed in
the South. as is claimed by Blaine and
Sherman, how did these colored men
procure their election to congress2 One
or them, James O'IIara, of North
Carolina received %, 300 votes against his
opponents 1869, and the district is
known to lie in the nesting place of the
late rebellion, Robert Smalls, OF South
Carolina was elected by Il majority fully
as large and in Il community VIGOROUSLY
hcdged in with Southern sentiment.
What can MIR Blaine exhibit in the whole
of the Republican North to offset this
state OF affairs in the Democratic South2
Wind: empty, vast and braggart wind.

the negro il held in a class bondage so
much more degrading than his original
condition of scryitudc, tina. he is chary OF
mixing in the filth of the game, knowing
by sad experience with Republican office
holders, that when his votc is cast. they
have no further use for him, and that
they regard his presence as a bore. For

very large number of practical receipts,
from which were selected the 1900 con-
