wrote q message TO Mr.. Mason informing

II is not difficult to see how system

industry to realize profits instead ol gut.

actual losses are precisely the aano a.
competition had not been prevented and

Advices from Washington indicate that
the dissatisfaction caused by the appoint
ment Of the coored lawyer Matthews as
Recorder of Deeds of the District Of CO.
lumbi has about died out, and that the
impression is growing every day that the
appointment, in defiance of the Senate,
was one of the wisest acts OF the admin
istration. There seemed to be no objec-
ton to Matthews on the ground OF his
qualifications and personal fitness
for the position, and his rejection
could only he attributed to reasons
based on his color and his politics. He
was colored Democrat and an able and
influential man, and hence the Republi-
cans were solidly opposed to his confirm
alton. They were determined to take
desperate step to keep the Democratic ad-
mnistration from making so prominent
and popular recognition Of the colored
race. They doubtless believed that
such recognition would go great
way towards conciliating the col
people and permanently dividing
the colored vote. 1t is said that
there are undoubted evidences that
just the effect that the Republicans
evidently feared 1t would; in fact, that IL
is having a more marked effect on ac-
count Of the peculiar circumstances con-
nected with the rejection and reappoint-
ment Of Matthews.
The most thoughtful leaders of the
colored people have long ago found out
IN no W
had become the slaves OF the Republican
party. They became fully aware of the
selfishness and talsity of the party ma
nipulators, and became convinced that the
good of the whole country required a
change in the government. Now that the
change has been made, and 1t is seen that
the interests OF the colored people are
really better guarded than they were I'M
der Republican rule, it cannot be long
before they will recognize the fact, and
the hold OF the Republicans on them will
be broken forever.
Thoughtful Democrats must concede
that the cOlored vote has kept several
Northern States in the Republican col
umn for several years. Instead of having
only three or four Northern States that
are reasonably sure to give Democratic
majorities. there should be six or
eight. There is no reason, except the
effects of Republican misrepresenta-
ton and prejudice, why a fair pro-
portion Of the colored people should
not be Democrats. That the President
has made point to correct IN a very con-
spicuous manner these persistent and
systematic misrepresentation and to
overcome this prejudice is highly com
mendable, and no good Democrat has any
right TO complain. Good Democrats ought
rather to be glad that they have a
President who knows what right and JUS
tlce is. and who dares to do his duty with
out regard 10 consequences.
