ON THE NEGRO RACE.

From his speech OF March 3, 1856
am one of those who feel that the
colored race in the South since the war
has been subjected to indignities, cruel
ties, outrages and repression of rights
such as find no parallel in the history of
civilization. | have read with horror the
authenticated stories of the cruelties
which have been visited upon this docile,
kindly and inOffensive race.
CLEVELAND AND THE HOLD-ONERS.
From his speech of March %, 1851
The President of the United States re-
peatedly put himself under the pledge,
not simply in his public utterances but
in private letters, voluntarily written, in
favor of such policy. 1t went through
all the land to those Republicans in office
who had a fragment, small or large, of a
legal term to serve, that if they dis
charged their duties faithfully and
honestly they would not be disturbed in
serving out the remainder of their term.
1t has turned out that it was deceptive
feast to those invited. 1t was almost as
full of deception and as fatal In its re-
suits as some of those feasts of old story
to which men were invited for purpose
of assassination.

Managers of the farmers alliance in
Brown county are largely of the demo-
cratic persuasion and in their endeavors
to carry the alliance over to their party
they have enoountesed an obstacle, which
stands like an invulnersble stone wall.
They have carried their manipulatIons
so far that the farmers OF Brown county
are led to assert that "if the alliance is
going into politics we want republican
as well as democrstie wing" The ex.
pectation that the farmers OF Brown
county, or any other Dakota county,
are to be lifted bodily into the demo.
cratic camp is futile one. When po-
litical test is applied to the alliance the
republicans therein will separate from
the democrats as readily as they would
If their brotherhood did not exist. The
alliance possesses no political platform
and the demsRogues who seek to lead .ts
members into strange pastures will not
fail to discover that the sturdy sgricul.
tnrelist knows his own mind and will
choose his own political company, If
the alliance is going into politics its
mbers will surely divide on political
lines.

In the telegraphio reports of the la,

In the telegraphio reports OF the late
northward frost visitation from various
central Dakota points it was universally
stated that corn was aninJured because
it was out Of the way OF frost. Such
statements are misleading. They can
not be true, il it is true that corn is
raised in any noticeable quantity in that
section. Corn is not yet all out of the
way OF frost in the southeast Missouri
river .counties-the corn belt proper OF
Dakota-though we have hopes that it
will be before frost comes. The crop
was later planted last spring than ever
before. When it was about ready to ear
there came q long wet spell during which
it stood still. 80 the season has brought
two periods of delay and as a result we
had the unprecedented fact that corn in
the corn belt crop was not ready for
frost on the 18th of September. This
being the case IN the extreme south il is
not reasonable to allege that the crop
was fully mstured much farther north
on the l2lh of September, The probe-
biIity is shnt no Dakota corn will be
gathered this year north of the line OF

q form something like the regular brief

was published that this work was being
done with view 10 pattipg it into O

national democratic committee and that,
of course, the whole expense came out
OF the general fund created by congress
to pay for the issuance of pensions, it
was stated at the pension bureau that

of the commissioner.
When General Black made up his
synopsis OF the report for the regular
press associations it contained elaborate
references to the presldent's veto of pen
sions. The press was thus thrown off
the track. 1t appeared, sure enough,
that all of this work on the defense of
the presidents pension vetoes was really
@ part of the annual report of the COM
missioner.
Much to the astonishment of every body
in Washington who paid any attention
to this matter. the annual report of
Commissioner Black does not contain
this matter. A careful reading of the
report, which contains 125 large pages
of solid minion and nonparell, does not
disclose single effort to defend the
president in his pension vetoes, or to
make an exhibition of the veto work OF
president. just where this matter
which was surely prepared by the ex-
perts in the bureau, has gone nobody
appears to know. There is no question
that a defense of the presidents pension
vetoes was prepared at the pension office
by these experts, and that the expense
was paid out of the common pension
funds. In the event the people OF the
country receive such literature they Will
know where it came from.

Why is the president silent upon one

active steps this year to put stop to

order compelling Indians to sign one
