The Reason the Republicans Are sssup.
pressed" In the States of the South.
The season is already far enough ad-
vanced to make it clear that the Re-
publican party does not intend this
year to make any effort to extend itself
beyond the States in which it at present
exists. 1t is Northern party as dis
tinguished from National party, aad.
if one may judge by appearances, il
proposes to remain such.
In the two Virginias, in North Caro-
lima, in Kentucky, in Tennessee, in Ar.
kansas and in Texas the party is or.
ganized and is doing good work to-
ward educating the whites as we'll rs
the blacks up to the idea of political
controversy, but in the other Southern
States the party exists only In name.
and in most of them does not go to the
trouble even of making nominations.
Occupying this attitude. Republican,
ism must take one horn or the other of
the dilemma, which is presented. Itmust
acknowledge that it is sectional or
ganization or it must cease lamenting
the solidity of South which it makes
no effort to disrupt. 1t is most effect
ually estopped from making the timc-
worn allegation that intimidation has
driven the party ont of existence, for
the fact that there is Republican par
ty in some States and none in others Is
proof which can not be evaded that it
is not intimidation which leaves the
party without an organization in many
of the States.
With the case of Virginia, Tennes-
see and Arkansas before us, it Is plain
that where there is any disposition to
have Republican party in the South.

Confederate, with Northern assistance,
had no difficulty in splitting up tho
Democrats and uniting one wing OF
the Reputation Of the State debt un-
Tennessee, two brothers, neither of
dates for the Governorship on rival
tickets, and at their meetings blacks as
we'll as whites attend in great num-
bcrs. In Arkansas political freedom
of action has been demonstrated by
the appearance of third, or farmers
party in the field.
These arc facts going to show that
the reason why there is no Republican
party in certain of the Southern
States is because the leaders of that
organization at the North do not want
any there. The sectional idea is still
held in abeyance. In a pinch it may
have to be used. To use it there must

THE FRAUD" NOT DEAD.

The Disgrace of 1875 Revived Again In
the Person OF Republican Candidate
for the New Mexican, Territorial Coun-
ell.
A friend and subscriber in Lincoln
County, N. NJ, writes US that one d.
j. NJ, A. Jewett is running as Re-
publican candidate for election to the
Territorial Council. Our correspond
ent understands that this man was a
member of the Louisiana Returning
Board which robbed Mr.. Tilden of the
Presidency just ten years ago, and he
asks us for the record.
Jewett was not member of the Re-
turning Board, but he was Intimately
concerned in the concoction of the
fraud. A carpet-bagger from Boston,
and the tool and creature of William
Pitt Kellogg. Jewett served in the Ca
pac.ty of secretary of the Republican
Election Committee. The famous cir
cular of Sept. 25, 1876, instructing the
supervisors of registration in the sew
eral parishes just what Republican ma
jority was expected of them, bore jew
ett's signature. "You must obtain the
results called for herein without fail, !"
he wrote. "Once obtained, your recog-
milton will be ample and generous. }"
Later he drew up some of the fraudu-
lent protests that were attached to the
withheld returns after it had become
apparent that the Louisiana Returning
Board was to decide the election. His
testimony before the Potter Investi-
eating Committee in 1879 amounted to
confession.
1t is not necessary to go into the de-
tails of Jewett's operations in New Or
leans, for he himself has put on record

Soma of the Wind Taken Out OF Blaine's
Sails Regarding Wages In the South.
Hon. James G. Blaine, in his speech
at Pittsburgh. referred to Chattanooga
rs point in the South where colored
laborers are paid sixty and seventy
cents day. The Daily Times, COM
menting on this speech, says: Care
full investigation reveals the fact that
the lowest wages paid to colored labor.
ers in any industry is ninety cents per
day. and this rate covers only few at
the South Tredegar iron works. The
greater number of colored men at
these works receive wages running
from 81 to s. per day, with largo
number at Intermediate rates of
Sl.25 and $3.50 per day. In
every case where skilled colored men
are employed as heaters, puddlers.
helpers, ETC., they get exactly the same
wages as white men for doing the same
work. Colored laborers at the Chatta-
nooga furnaces get $1.25, $3.50 and
50 per day. according to the skill, re-
sponsibllity, etc., required TO fill the
various places in which they work.
These are representative Southern iu-
dustries. What we say of Chattanooga
in this regard applies to Birmingham,
Knoxville and other places. Colored
boy s in the South Tredegar nail works,
working; as feeders. make from seven
ty-fivc cents to S1.25 per day, accord
ing to the skill and industry displayed
in their labor. Some colored men
make as high as 81 per day as puddiers
and foundrymen in this section. We
may say generally that the scale runs
from 81 to S1.50 for the great mass of
colored men working in Southern
manufactures.

GETTING BACK THE HOMES.

The Republican Party Believed in Giving
Away the Land to Great Corporations.
and the Democratic Party Is Reclaim
in. It for the People.
1t was the Republican party which
inaugurated the wholesale giving away
of the homes of the people. in the vast
areas of good land added to our do
main by the Democratic party. 1t is
often said that the Democrats began the
policy, and the land given by the State
of Illinois to the Illinois Central has
been held up as frightful example.
But that was not gift. The consid-
Grafton was heavy annual tax which
has been and still is faithfully paid,
and the taxes thus saved to the people
have reimbursed them over and over
again for the original investment.
1t was the Republicans who inaug-
urated giving the lands directly to the
corporations in large slices and letting
them keep them whether they ever
built the roads or not. The extent to
which this has been done has often
been made public, but it viii be long
time before the theme will grow old.
Here is brief list of a few of the worst
