Republicans are really of the opin-
ion that the southern Negroes
should be elected or appointed to
Office, they should begin their
reforms at home. Ali things con-
sidered the northern Negroes
ought to be as capable Of holding
Office as the Negroes Of the South.
In spite of this fact however the
northern Republicans appear to be
devoting all their energies to
this amelioratiOn of the condition
Of the Negroes at the South.
Meanwhile the Negroes at the
North are left in a situation at
once gloomy and peculiar. In
spite of everything that the Repub
lican organs and the orators may
say or do. the fact remains that
they refuse to recognize the north
ern Negroes either socially or
politically, They graciouSly per
NIT them to vote the Republican
ticket, but the Negroes who are
unfortunate enough tn ! We at the
North are not permitted to hold
Office, nor are they permitted to
associate with the white people
on any thing like terms of eqIal-
ity.
The ties that's bind the race to
the white people of the South are
altogether lacking at the North.
There the situation lacks the senti.
ment and the surroundings that
exist here and the result is that
the Negro at the North is subject
cd TO treatment that is uuheard
of at the South.
Intelligent southern Negroes
are beginning to appreciate the
difference of latitude aud altitude,
and before many years they will
have their eyes fully opened to
the hypocrisy of their so called
Republican friendS.--ATLANTA

OUR NEW JUDGE.

No one regrets the retirement
of Hon. VIM. b. Smell, judge OF
the Police Coult, more thah the
Editor of the BEE and the people
of ashingtou. The judge has
worn the judicial mantel with
honor 10 himself and the position
which he has 80 long ac"eptably
filled as Judge of the Police Court
He has never been persuaded by
prejudice against any class of cit
izens who have been brought
before him, be they high or low,
rich or poor, he has executed the
laws with fairness and impartiality.
No man is more acquainted with
that class of unfortunate criminals,
whose circumstances make them
commit crime, than judge Smell.
But since another of equal fairness
END judicial knowledge has been
appoiuted to succeed him, the
colored criminals who are largely
in the majority, need not have any
cause to fear that justice will not
be gwen them.
Mr.. Thomas f. Miller the new
Judge to succeed judge Smell, is a {,
man of great legal knowledge and
practical experience and having
been recommended by Hon. Samuel
Mills, although a democrat, but
one of the finest lawyers in the
United States, We feel confident
that Judge Miller is the right man,
since change was 10 be made, to
succeed Hon. VIM. B. Smell. We
congratulate the president on bis
selection.

tradesmen and wholesale merchants
who have sttaken root" in the soil
of America and become proprietors,
and identified themselves with the
United States as their home and
country, these are the men that
could aud will give the decisive
votes for John Sherman in this
State. AS in New York, it is like
wise in other States where the Ger.
man element predominates among
adopted citizens, and the doubtful
States of New Jersey, Indiana and
Connecticut could once more be
made to fall in line with a solid Re.
publican North in the lead of John
Sherman as the Republican candi-
date. Virginia and Kentucky are
both dlsputable States, and iu each
of them John Sherman's name
stands higher than that of any one
OF the Republican leaders. The
Ohio Republican Convention has
discovered the true road to victory,
with John Sherman as the nominee
OF the Republicans, and it is to be
ftrvently hoped that the Republi
can Conventions Of other States
soon to follow will fall into line and
second the motion of the Ohio Re-
publlcans before the people,"
Ole of the closest political obser-
vers and sagacious journalists
Murat Halstead-after IA personal
survey of the field in New York, and
writing from that city, in the Gin
cinnatl Commercial Gazette of Dec
ember ii, 1887, says:
'.It is we'll known that one of the
elements of the Republican strength
in the Ohio cities is the fullness of
German information about financial
achievements and the strong Ger.
man sense as to sound money prin-
ciplss, aud the general confidence.
that German citizens feel in the nat.
ional and scientific craftsmanship
of John Sherman. The Germans
know pretty well what Sherman
has done, and like him and cOnfde
In him for it, aud they go to him
and for him as a man whose charac
ter and history would lend an excep
tional dignity and give an impres.
sive force to his candidacy. As this
has been a distinct help in Ohio,
why not in New York? The ques-
tlon is one OF comprehensive i'm
portance, and it cannot be discuss
ed too much or too soon. Well, the
claim made by the friends Of John
Sherman, who press him for the
Presidency on the ground that he
ls the strongest candidate for New
York, is that twenty thousand Ger
man voters would turn to him who
have lately been voting the Demo
cratic ticket. There are about tour
Y thousand characteristically Ger
man voters in the State, aud not
more than eight Or at most ten
thousand have adhered steadily to
the Republicans. II is claimed that
with Sherman in the field not more
than ten thousand of the fourty
thousand Germans would stick to
the Democrats"
And his letter in the CONNER.
cial Gazette of December 1lth says:
sit is said that even Carl Schurz,
who, as may be remembered, served
ln the Cabinet Of Hayes with Sher-
man, would turn up Sherman man
and give him immense assistance;
but the rumor lacks, so far as we are
informed, any thing like personal
confederation. We do but speak OF
the things that are in the air-the
rumors that are in the winds that
blow"

OPPORTUNITY FOR ABLE.
BODIED YOUNG MEN.

The school while fairly flooded
with applications from boys from
IA to IL years of age, has much
difficulty in finding able-bodied
young men of sufficient strength
and weight to be suited for work
in the saw mill, handling lumber
and doing other heavy duty.
There are no doubt many young
men from Is to % years of age
without means, known TO our
readers, who are able to pass a
satisfactory examination in read
ing, writing and and arithmetic
through subtraction, and would
be very LAD of a chance to enter
the Night Class, working all day
and studying two hours evenings
for one year, from October to
October, thus earning means to
defray the expenses of taking the
regular Normal course.
The school offers such young
men for their services $40 per
month, with board, furnished
rooms, washing, and in case of
sickness, medical attendance. Tue
conditions are such that man

pondent, w. G. McB. lde, in the

''ln his own house Senator Sher-

ing is more Cordial than emphatic.
He is never demonstratlye. bui

Senator ages gracefully. He does
not look to-day older than his ap
pt arence indicated ten years ago,

knowlege of our financial and econ
omic system. Among the few who
have made 1t passionate study he
stands out like the tall oak. -Four
years experience, too, as the Sec
retary of the Treasury have made
him familiar with the very minutiae
of our finance. None better than
he is familiar with our national
debt, fsr he led the hosts who con
ceived it, aid then subsequently
executed the laws which led us
successfully to the resumption OF

of the conversation | had with the
Senator it gravitated naturally to
fiscal questions
On this subject the following is
strong evidence (translated from
DER REPUBLIKANER, New York,
August 6, 1880:
"John Sherman is not only the
strongest candidate for the Ohio
Republicans, and recognized as
their folmost leader, but he is like
wise the strongest candidate in
other states, viz New York, India

cial election Democratic States.
Among the German element Mr..
Sherman has thousands upon thou
sonds of warm friends and admir-
ers, that appreciate and honor his
record as a tinancier and statesman,
and whom no party considerations
could prevent from giving him
their support as the right man in
the presidential Office. Fur eight
years past Mr.. Sherman has been
Americas statesman par excellence
in the eyes of the German-Ameri
cans, and his nomination in 1880
and 1884 wonld have been of more
benefit to the party and to the coun-
try than were the nominations that
were made by the Republican par
ty. The State of New York, which
cast the deciding vote in 1884, and
which will do it again in 1888, can
be won by John Sherman's nomina-
tion, because the German-born cit
izens of New York would support
him almost to u mau. The Social
lists, Anarchists and Nihilists among
the Germans are not included i'll

as owing her position to the
influence of Miss Nalle (which /
am informed is untrue) he took
particular pains to put it in the
editorial column in order that

cowardly writer would go free.
Had the recent Wariug-McKin-
ney testimonial been a success
Mr.. Tompkins literary effusions
