The Chicago Anarchists.

Fears are expressed in some quarters
that the Supreme Court of Illinois will set
aside the verdict in the case of the Chioa-
go Anarchists, and that they will finally
escape the eallows. II new trial is
granted it will Of course be more difficult
to secure the conviction of the A anarchists
than it was in the first instance, but pub
lie sentiment in Chicago Is so strong
against them that in the event of new
trial being granted the chances are that
another verdict of guilty will oe secured.
To the Anarchist the maintenance of
any kind Of government is obnoxious, be-
cause he seeks, without labor and by
force, to possess himself of the property
of others.
Labor, on the other hand, seeks closer
union, and greater inter-community of in
terests with capital and property. The
aim of the laborer is to become property
holder by means of a more liberal
valuation of honest toll. He knows that
amongst the enlightened and cultured
classes he has hosts OF friends aud sympa-
thizers who look forward to an organized
system OF reform which will

of redressing the wrongs of the honest
toilers. The dignity of labor by them
is fully recognized, and on his side, the
intelligent workingman realizes that
there is only one way to conserve his in
terests, and that is by throwing around
society all the safeguards provided by
law and thus maintaining order.
The Anarchist, under the specious pre-
text of aiming at liberty, would destroy
all liberty by overthrowing all law. He
is the enemy of organized society.
Liberty and license are as widely apart
as the poles, for where license be-
gins liberty ends. A com bination of
LABOR against capital might terminate in
license. A combination of capital against
labor might result in despotism. In
either case liberty would be in danger.
In country in which the ballot box is
really the exponent of the will of the
people all excuse for such antagonisms
Is absent.

An Unsatisfied Colored Man.

News comes from England that while
Fred Douglass is being toasted and lion
lied in that country mis- thoughts revert
unpleasantly to the fact that there are
good many doors in this country that are
not open to him and his family, and he
therefore complains that he ls only free
man in name. He Is In an unhappy state
OF mind He seems to forget that he has
enjoyed higher privileges than any other
person of like deserts and calibre of any
color, or no color at all, that this country
| has produced. He has been taken up by
fanatics and enthusiasts and philanthro-
pists, educated, enriched, honored,
apotheosized, and allowed to violate the
sanctity of his own race, as well as of the
Caucasian, by taking to himself a white
wife, and still he IS not satisfed.
There is probably no white man of
equal merit in this country to whom so
many doors up North are open, and that
because chance elevated him to the posi-
ton of a professional negro, and actually
alienated him from his own race, with
which he now has nothing in common,
and the true position of which he does not
understand or appreciate. There are
thousands of colored men in the South
laboring earnestly to elevate their people
morally, mentally, materially and So
cislly, who are UNNECESSARILY superior to
Fred Douglass in everything that goes to
constitute true patriotism and manhood.
No word Of vain complaint is heard from
them as to their status. They recognize
| certain lines drawn by nature, and while
they may rise above them, they do not de-
| sire to destroy them.
1t is difficult to say whether Douglass is
| whining because he really wants to have
a wider social career here, or in order to
| draw out sympathy for himself over the
water so that he may profit more largely
than ever socially, and perhaps pecuniari-
| ly, out of his peculiar position as a pro-
| fessiona: negro. Whatever his object
may be. in this country he is entitled only
to the contempt OF the true and tried pc o.
| pie of both races, no matter if he has ac-
cumulated wealth and attained TO notori-
ETY., which for his purposes may be regard.

In August last, during the Maine cam
paign, Mr.. Blaine undertook to excite the
fears OF the workingmen of the North by
asserting that the cheap negro labor of
the South would eventually reduce them
to poverty more CALLING than slavery
itself. The MORNING NEWS at once
pointed out that Mr.. BlaiLe was either
ignorant respecting the wages received
by negroes at the South, or that
he willfully misstated the facts.
There is ground for thinking that he
willfully misstated the facts. He doubt
less saw that his statement relative to the
wages paid negroes at the South was au-
thoritatively denied, but he did not under
take to make an investigation of the mat
ter in order TO satisfy himself
whether or not he was mistaken. He SIM
plykept on repeating his statement, and
doubtless many Northern workingmen
believed him. In October, In Pennsyl-
vania, he urged this same point-the diff
ference between the wages received by the
negro workingmen Of the South and the
white worklngmen of the North. and the
certainty that negro competition would
force down wages at the North-with all
the eloquence which he possesses.
But what will he say when he sees the
statement made by Congressman Kelley,
in his speech at Birmingham on Saturday
respecting the wages OF colored laborers
in the iron mills? Mr.. Kelley is as good
Republican and protectionist as MIR.
Blaine is. and in Pennsylvania, from
which State ne has been a repre-
sentative in Congress so many years.
no man stands higher. In his speech he
said that the negroes employed in the
Southern iron mills receive as good wages
as the white men employed in the mills of
Pennsylvania. What has Mr.. Blaine to
say to this! Will he admit that he was
mistaken, or will he continue to circulate
his unfounded statement?

improvements Demanded.

There are several things about which
there is a great unanimity of opinion in
! Savannah. One is that more OF the
streets should be paved at once, and an
other is that the new extension should he
| opened TO settlement as soon as possible.
! There Is great deal in appearances,
and it will be admitted that sandy streets

tage OF the former. 1t Is not improb-
able that Savannah's unpaved
streets have kept capitalists from
investing money within her limits. The
tax payers are willing to paw taxes for
street improvements. and the Council
favors such improvements, but somehow
or other very little is being done towards
securing them. Everybody is delighted
with Broughton street, and the property
owners along that street would rather
pay great deal more than they did than
not TO have it paved. More street paving
is certainly demanded by public senti-
ment.
The opening of the streets through the
extension, or at least a few of those
marked on the map, would greatly in
crease the city's opportunities for grow
ing. Building will soon be at a standstill
unless the way is opened to those who
want to secure lots on which to build
homes. The City Council is endeavoring
to do something towards opening the
streets. but 1t moves so slowly in the
matter that signs of Impotence are be-
ginning to be apparent.
new hotel, new court house and a
new post Office building are among the
improvements which are expected to take
shape in the near future. 1t may be sew
eral months before the construction of
them is begun, but that they will be built
there is no good reason for doubling.
Savannah has made great progress in the
last two years in the wav of buildings,
but great as that progress has been it is
probable that it will be more than equalled
in the next two.
No one OF the improvements suggested
conflicts with another. They can all be
pushed forward at the same time. What
is needed as much as anything else is
hearty and sympathetic action in the line
of progress on the part of Savannah's Off
Gals and those citizens who are interested
in promoting the city's prosperity.

The sugar planters generally have here
tofore stood squarely with the Republl.
cans on the tariff question. They have
caught up and re-echoed the cries against
'tinkeripg with the tariff" and when
ever an attack was to be made on the
tariff reformers, in Congress or out, they
were nearly always in sympathy with the
attacking party. They were quick to
sneer at the Democratic doc trine Of a
tariff for revenue, although the Demo-
cratic party regards the tariff on sugar
as a revenue tariff.
Now the Republican, seem to be sing

their manufacturing monopolies. They

one fell swoop, and at the same time pull

the subject, and now they are gathering

few months ago they were accustomed to
sneer at as Stree trade papers,"

the Republicans have acted PREACHER ously
toward the sugar planters. II is doubtful
IL they are under any pledges, only such
as might have been implied on the princi-

The divorce suit, pending in the London
courts, of Lady Colin Campbell against
her husband, the fifth son OF the Duke OF
Argyll, reveals a sad condition OF affairs

No better evidence can be afforded that
a privileged class like that of the English
nobility has outlived it's usefulness TO the
body polite than the notable scandals
connected with IL that have received pu b.

GRAFTON, mental and moral, has set its seal
upon members OF houses whose history lie

There IS no diminution apparently OF
vitality or pluck or energy, or other ele-

but it is constantly becoming more evil

power and glory rests with the middle

middle classes there is no lack Of the vir-
tue that has distinguished tho nation for

Such cases as those OF Sir Charles
