While fleeing from evils of which
it has knowledge, the repub-
lican party must avoid running into
dangers of which it is not conscious
and the destructive consequences OF
which cannot be fores cen at present
The republican party can not afford
to make color line in politics when
the constitutional amendments for
which 1t is responsible eliminate that
color line from all citizenship condi-
lions. The duty of the republican
party to the dark complexioned Amer
lean citizen of African descent will
never be discharged by drawing a
political color line. Such an act will
be the initial step toward repudiating
the responsibility of the party for the
citizenship which the colored man
possesses; the first step toward his
practical Acknowledgement. Thus it
seems to the LIGHT, so far as IL can
now Judge, and seeing this 1T could
not consistently as republican jour-
nal favor the new departure.
GENERAL WoLsELEY telegraphs
the British war secretary that he is
totally irresponsible for Randy Chur-
chill's statements and positions on the
utter inadequacy of the British forces
sent to Suakim by the government to
accomplish the work for which they
were sent. The generals telegram
shows plainly that the opinion of
Churchill while coinciding fully with
his own representations to the govern
ment was totally Independent of
them and that no communication OH
that point had been exchanged be-
tween them. The reply of Wolseley
is bomb in the government camp.

A Hat In Confederate DAYS.

small for myself, the eldest of the two,
and my mother determined that
she would contriye a hat for me which
would rival the purchased one in beauty.
She selected soft, yellow husks OF well
dried Indian corn as her material To work
from, instead Of palmetto leaves, which
were very commonly used for plating
hats. She tore the husks into narrow
strips with a pin, and from these she
braided a very pretty pointed hat similar
in shape To that Of my sisters, lined it
with shirred peachblow silk, and trimmed
it with a fringed and knotted scarf Of the

MALPRACTICE In China.

The Chinese penal code provides that
when an unskillful physician, in admins
tering medicines or using the %acupuncture
needle, proceeds contrary to the esta5-
lished forms, and thereby causes the death
of the patient, the magistrate shall call in
other physicians to examine the medicines
or the wound. II 1t appear that the in
jury done was unintentional, the prac-
titioner shall then be treated according to
the statute for accidental homicides, and
shall not any longer be allowed TO
practice medicine. But il he have de-
signedly departed from the established
forms, and have practiced deceit In his
attempts to cure the malady in order TO
gain property, then, according 10 its
amount, he shall be treated as a thief;
and if death ensues from his malpractice,
then for having thus used medicine with
intent to kill, he shall be beheaded. There
appears to be nothing in the Celestial"
code answering to the laws Of barbarian
nations concerning civil damages recoy-
cradle by parties made to suffer from
''unintentional' malpractice. - Chicago

How Diamonds Are Struggled.

II he finds the search is too rigid he can
easily swallow therh-and as soon as he
gets ashore an emetic will shortly bring

Harmony does not shed its serene and
benefcent influence over the Republi-
can party far and wide as it did in those
happy days OF Chandler and Arthur
where jobs and rings gave fat prizes to
all the faithful, and the local boss of each
State had almost a surplus of favors to
dispense.
The revolt against the Republican ma
chine in the Ohio Senate and against the
Democratic machine in the House of
Delegates in Maryland are signs of the
spread of the independent spirit that has
shown itself irregularly, but with a pref
ty steady advance, throughout the coun-
try. 1t Is worthy of note that the Re
publican Senators in Ohio, whose arbi-
trary and greedy demands provoked
rebellion, were pursuing the same policy
as the Platt Senators followed last year
and the year before in the Senate of New
York.
The caucus was not as ironclad az in
the old days, and the legislators could
not all be whipped in.
The worst of it is that some o. the
Republican papers point TO Ohio's ex'
ample with pride, and beg other States
to follow it.

SHERMAN ON THE PRESIDENT.

Senator Sherman, the wOuld-be Presi-
dent, in his recent speech in the Senate
attacking Mr.. Cleveland's financial policy,
of course tried to lay the alarm Of the
immense Treasury surplus upon the
Democratic party, because they had not
passed measures TO reduce it, and upon
the Democratic President, because he
vetoed measures which would have soon
COTTON rid OF a much larger sum.
In uttering these sentiments Sherman
shows himself the ultra partisan that
be is, and is evidently longing for the
flesh pots of Egypt, which lie and his
party enjoyed so freely in the palmy
days OF Radicalism. Beyond donbt
Democratic Congress might have follow
ed the ex ample Of their Radical predeces-
sors, and squandered the peoples money
for the enrichment of individual friends
and favorites.
Equally Is il beyond doubt that Presi-
dent Cleveland might have been guided
by the practices Of his Radical forerun-
ners and approved measures for scatter
ing an unjust accumulation of taxes
broadcast throughout the North, through
the medium of reckless pension bills.
But the country is to be congratulated
that neither of them would consent to
any such arrangement.
The Daily times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1886-1889, 1888-01-06

One Of the most prominent features OF
the political news that wears the outline
OF Republican policy in the presidential
contest is Sherman's criticism Of the
Presidents message.
1t is noticeable that the speech 10 al.
most identical with the Blaine manifesto
on the subject, except that Mr.. Sherman
goes for still more reckless expenditure
in order to keep down the surplus col
lected from taxes laid on solely to pro-
tect monopoly.
lie criticises the President merely for
his veto of the gigantic pension steal and
for his refusal 10 approve the river and
harbor bill.
The policy of the Republicans, there
fore, taken from the ideas expressed by
the two big leaders, Sherman and Blaine
Is to keep up the tariff BY aboiishiug
the internal revenue, and then, for
fear there might still be a surplus
collected from those same taxes to pro-
tect monopoly, the next thing Is to
20 in for all sorts of subsidies,
bogus pensions, and buying in
bonds at high premiums, and all
this for the sole purpose Of keep
ing the home market for the home
producer and cutting of all foreign mar.
kets, both to the American buyer and
the American working man, who wants
to compete with the rest Of the world in
industry and skill.
The only chance the Republicans have
is a Democratic blunder; but even
If it were possible to make that policy
work, the fall of the Republican party
the next time would he TO a finality and
to the bottom. 1t is only a question of
time as to how long the people can be
deaf and blind to the simple truth that
has been for generations hidden by
various well-devised tricks of prejudice
to mislead the people of the United
States with the cry Of protecting labor"
II the laborer had the whole world
open to furnish him the materials TO
work with, there would be ten times the
demand for labor than there is now and
a hundred factories instead of one.

A high authority on the subject makes
up the following statement Of the timber
protective taxes:
During twenty years the Govern
ment has received, say, about $4,000 600
from the duty on wood. This has prac-
tically been Il premium to encourage the
destruction Of our forests to the detri-
ment OF agriculture. The Forestry Con-
rress last year showed that denuding our
country OF its timber had really changed
climatic conditions, droughts being more
serious and more frequent than before,
and while government has been taking
this money from wood importers (of
