r. BLAINES' HYPOCRISY
MIR

MIR. James q. Blaine, opened
the campaign in a speech at Saba
go Lake Me, Tuesday afternoon.
Among other things he said:
"lf the Democratic party shall

tariff, the artisans of the United
States will be thrown into direct

control of the national government,
the colored laborer in the southern
states will remain where the south
ern democrats have placed him po-
Iitically, subject to the will of the
white man, and unable to fix the
price or command tbe value OF his
labor. The colored man will, there
fore, under those conditions and
Influences, remain a constant qaan-
tity in the labor market, receiving
inadequate compensation for his
own toll, aud steadily crowding
down the compensation of white
labor. if not to his own level yet
far below its just and adequate
standard.
At every turn, therefore. wheth-
er it be in exposing the white
American labor to the danger of
European competition by detroy-
ing the protective tariff, or"wheth-
er it be in reducing the wages OF
the white man by unfairly making
| the colored lab0rer his fatal com
petitor, in all the fields OF toll, the
Democratic party north and south
appears as the enemy of every in

ed, the wages of the American
laborer will tall as certainly as eff

There has never been a greater
piece of political hypocrisy uttered :,
a more gigantic piece of affoutry
and demogoguery displayed than
in this Sebago speech, so far as
Mr.. Rlaines' interest in Negro la

in the south but Mr.. Blaine? In-
deed, no baser crime could have

defeat of the Force Bill by Mr..
Blaine. Labor would have been
respected and the Negro would
have had his constitutional
rights in the south had it not have
been tor Mr.. Blaines' pretended
friendship for him. He says,
elf the Democratic party shall be
able to hold control of the national
government, the colored labOrer in
the southern states will remain
where the southern democrats
have placed him politically, sui
ject to the will of the white man
&c" Mr.. Blaine is right i'll this
utterdnce, but doesn't he know
that he is responsible for the Ne

Mr.. Blaine is responsible for the

The colored voter has f)r the
past years lnlrusted his political
Interests to the few aud has not
always exercised intelligent dis
elimination between his enemies
and his friends. True, for time
his dependence was enforced by
peculiar circumstances, which of
fered no alternative. But enforced
dependence soon gave way to rea-
SONS for independence, and the
reasons were ignored while we
continued to remain the political
pro- erty of a certain set of leaders
whose views, as to our utility to
them, we e ever changing and
who bad more than once attempt
ed to get rid of us. 1t seemed that
we We're a very heavy weight-sp
heavy that when we were needed
as ballast, we were in great de-
mand, but when there was no
need Of ballast we were i'm the way
and the object of no little embar,
assment. This weight, instead of
being regulated by ourselves and
distributed according to an intel
ligent conception of the needs of
the situation, remaiLed in bulk
and sat with no good results upon
the stomach of one party. Had
we grasped The situati n and di-
divided according to the demand
OF the times and the disposition OF
friends and enemies, we might
now be in position to know lust
where it would be best for us as
voters to locate. Besides our in
disposition to take sides upon local
and economic issues has made for
us no additional friends. We are
still brandishlng our fists in the
faces of those upon whom we are
dependent for a political endorse
ment and recognition of our polit-
lcaI aud other claims, when it is
our duty to use diplomacy where
force and entreaty will not avail.
Slaves to no party, but always
looking to the best interests of the
race let us manifest an interest in
ihe practical issues of the day in
order that our adaptability to full
citlz nshlp may be m de apparent
to all aud iu order that we may
be respected as judicious enter
prlsing and thoughtful race of
people. We can not do this by
huddllng or pretending to be what
we are not; but we can do so bv

should interest the whole people
