The Constitution, in its Sunday issue,
publishes the views of a number of lead
ing Democrats on the outlook of the cam
paign. Among others Senator Brown
spoke. And he always speaks to the
point. Among other things he said:
l regard the election as one of vast import
ance, especially to the Southern people, as long
as the bloody shirt is Haunted id our faces by the
Republican Senators, orators and newspapers.
As long as We are constantly threatened with the
race issue, the white people In The South may
differ in opinion on economic and other ques-
tons, but they cannot afford to divide. The race
question to the people of the South is paramount
and overshadows every other question. On
other questions we will agree TO disagree-on
the vital issue we will stand together as long as
the issue Is pressed upon US. When the Repub-
licans cease TO make that issue, we can divide
upon other questions, but not till then
1.-THE right to regulate their own affairs
in their own way must be conceded to the
States of Georgia and South Carolina as
fully as the like right is conceded to New
York and Connecticut. When that con-
cession is made in good faith, the solid
South can safely divide on the tariff and
other like questions. Till then we can
differ on questions, but cannot afford to
divide.
"But as the Democratic party comedies
to the fullest extent our just claims to
the management of our own affairs, while
the leaders of the Republican party de-
ny this, it is our duty to stand with and
support the Democratic party. While
the race question, as already stated, Is
vital, our own race must see to 1T that
the rights of the colored race are re-
spected and that they have the fullest
measure Of their legal rights constantly
guaranteed by the just and reasonable
conduct of the white race towards them.
We must extend equal and even handed
justice to the colored people Of the South,
but we cannot afford to submit to their
dictation or domination."

Mr.. Henry G. Noah is a New Yorker who
went to Florida five years ago 10 engage in the
fruit business. No doubt he has been well
treated by Fioridians and in return he goes
North for few weeks and ISLANDERS the people
Of his adopted home. He says: THE shotgun
still plays most importan, part in Florida poll
tics, and while under free vote and a fair count
/ honestly believe that the State would give a
Republican majority OF 1900, unless the Re-
publicans Of the North help us to prevent the
intimidation of the colored voters, and to secure
the correct counting of the vote after it is cast
lam afraid that we stand poor show of carrying
the State" Mr.. Noah's attention is directed to
the following facts l. The Republican vote Of
Florida in 1884 WAS 4703 OF the entire vote
cast, and in each of the congressional districts it
bore larger proportion TO the entire vote than
the colored voters bore to the total voters of
that district. 2. In 1884 there were more white
men who voted the Republican. ticket in Florida
than colored men who voted the Democratic
ticket In speaking OF Florida politics, Mr.
Noah ought to get nearer the truth.-SaOannah

Lands ADMINISTRATION
The Government can never be restored and

hope that Providence will, in its own good time,
raise up man adapted and qualified for the
wise execution of this great work, and that the
people will put him in possession of the execu
tive administration, through which alone that
noble mission can be accomplished an the
health ard life Of our political system be pre-
served and invigorated. "-SamueI j. 7Izden to

lions or speculatOns no corrupt operations in
or through the Land Office. No American at
home or abroad has lad occasion to droop his
eyes in shame because OF any such things
