Who are Leading Their Race from Politi-
cal Bondage.
ST. LOUIS, August Al. Milton Tur-
ner, chairman of the National Negro DEM
ocratic Executive Committee, has returned
to the city from the Indianapolis Conyen-
tion. He was seen by reporter, to whom
he said: 1.-THE Indianapolis Convention
was by far the most intellectual gathering
of negroes that ever assembled together
in this country. There were nine
lawyers, five physicians and large
number of teachers, among the latter be-
ing Prof. Peter II. Clark, the greatest ne
gro educator of the age. i shall call a
meeting at an early day for the Executive
Committee in New York, when we will
communicate with the National Democrat
ic Committee. Our policy will he to CO.
operate with the party in doubtful States
6y furnishing speakers, literature and
workers. A national Democratic negro
paper will be established in Washington,
ID. c., and the result of the movement
will be a far better understanding be-
tween the whites and negroes Mt the South
than has existed heretofore.
THE attempt of Republican papers to
ridicule this movement is an admission
that our arguments are unaswerable. The
negro's interests are with the party which
advocates tariff reform He is producer
OF cotton and other raw mater
ials, and under high hprotective system
ultimately pays tax on his own
labor. We are not sctusted, as Republi-
cans claim. by mercenary motives, nor
was the Democratic National Committee
at all concerned in calling or directing the
movement, which represents the highest
thought the negroes represent in this coun-
try. As rapidly as he Ia able TO grasp
the subject of the tariff he will become
Democratic. The fact that the tariff ques-
tion is the issue is q happy circumstance
for the negro who wishes to break the
shackles of party slavery. It takes him
out of politics rs an issue and enables him to
make terms with the men of that section
in which he must earn his living. The
American negro can live in no other coun-
try but the United States, and he can live
nowhere in the United States as we'll es in
the South. There his labor is necessary.
it is q well-ssttled principle that love is
always aggressive, and in the natural
course of events the negro will come to
own the soil, or his part of it which he cul-
tivates."

Who Is Making 1t Interesting for Hon.
Joseph ID. Taylor.
CAMBRIDGE, OHIO, August 4.-The can
vass being made by William Lawrence,
iun., in this (the Seventeenth) district,
promises some remarkable results. The
district is regarded as hopelessly Repub-
lican, aud it is conceded that Hon. J. D..
Taylor, the Republican candidate, will be
reelected to his fourth term and given a
life lease upon the office; and yet Mr..
Lawrence will carry both Guernsey and
Noble counties, and make it nearly q
stand-off in Belmont and Harrison, 90 that
Colonel Taylor will have to depend entire
ly on the big Republican majority in JEFF
ferson county. Mr.. Lawrence is extreme
ly popular with the young men and
farmers, and the fact that Colonel Taylor,
his opponent, is president OF the 'Iron
Roofing Trust" is being used with power
ful effect against him. The trust will
probably have to be formally dissolved to
secure the election of its president.

And Marshall County Republicans Select
Their County Tickets.

WESTON W. VA, August 4.-The he-
publicans held conventions sn each OF the
Magisterial Districts of the county to-day
for the purpose Of appointing delegates 70
a general convention to be held here next
Saturday, at which the county ticket VIII
be nominated. For some time
there has been spirited conteet
over the nomination for the prose
cutting attorneyship, the candidates
being Eugene Somlaerville and George c.
Cole. The nomination of Cole has been
championed by the town bosses, whilst
Sommeryille is said to be more popular
with the country people. Alta recent con-
yention held here some hard feeling was
caused by the adoption of motion,
favoring mass convention for
the nomination Of the county
ticket and as the County Executive
Committee had since called a district con-
vention apparently in defiance Of the ex-
pressed will of the people, at that time,
some trouble WAS anticipated to-day by the
friends of both candidates, as the dele
gates appointed wouln virtually settle the
question of who would be the nominee.
However, as Sommerville seemed to be in
the lead, no objection was made to the ac-
ton of the committee, and everything
passed off even more smoothly than was
expected.
On Sand Fork, after the Cole men were
defeated, DIR. M. s. Holt, editor of the Re
publican, went up to w. B. McGary, the
Democratic candidate for the position, and
congratulated him and assured him that
he would receive his vote. Other Repub-
licans followed suit, and when the con-
vention adjourned one hack full of Repub-
licans made the air sound with cheers for

IN TWO ROUNDS.
Tommy Warren Knocks Out His Man at
Duluth.

CHICAGO, August A dispatch from
Duluth, Mimi, Gays: Tommy Warren
defeated John McGill last night in a rat
tling fight of two rounds. The first round
was in Warren's favor, but in the second
he was staggered by a Highlander on the
neck. He recovered quickly, however,
responding with swinging left on Nc
Gill's ear, which dazed him, and followed
it with straight left, which sent McGill
to the floor. In ten seconds McGill arose,
and was met BY right handler on the
face and a left handler in thsjugular, which
laid him out for twenty-three seconds.
The referee at once awarded the fight and
stakes to Warren.
