IT IS EVIDENT there is to be q wild
scramble for the offices at the gift of
President elect, and many have COM
menced the preliminaries of the skir-
mish already. The move in this direc-
ton thus far has mainly gone no furth-
er than filing a caveate of intention. In
this State it is said there will not be
any vancancies for some time for Presi-
dent Harrison to fill, and it is to be
hoped there will be no unseemly efforts
in making them. The Democrats talk
very philosophically about the Offices
belonging to the victors and some of
them go so far as to express a wish
that those in Office will be ousted at
once by the incoming administration.
The administration of Government has
a higher idea than simply getting and
retaining Office, and we hope to see
American politics grow in this direc-
tion.

The Democratic papers have very
generally been discussing the cause of
President Cleveland's defeat and the
uniform conclusion reached is that it
was not the Tariff issue that did it..
Disinterested lockers on however
think differently. 1t is also noticeable
that acting under the conclusion thew
have arrived at, the fight for Tariff Re-
form will be kept at persistently, the
leaders believing that the people will
eventually come to their way of think
ing in sufficient numbers to carry this
measure through, and them with it.
This being the case the campaign of
education" will go on and the people
have abundant time to think well on
the best governmental policy before
another election.

The political fever having complete
ly died out, says the Baltimore Sun, the
business man gets a chance to assert
himself, and everywhere an excellent
feeling is manifested. The holiday
trade has opened with briskness not
anticipated at this early date, and all
the prospects are of the best. The
streets are filed with strangers and
shoppers, and the stores are showing
their most attractive novelties. The
theatres, the unfailing index of com
mercial good feeling, are all crowded
nightly, Notwithstanding the many
frst-class entertainments competing
against each other. On all sides the
hope is strong for busy and profitable
season in trade.

ACCORDING to the figures received
by Clerk Clark, of the House, l6O Dem
ocrats and 159 Republicans have been
elected. The Republicans, however,
claim the House as stOutly as ever, by
from three to seven majority. The
Democrats who have done the most
figuring on che returns now admit that
this is the probability. There no long
er appears to be any good reason to
doubt that Thompson in California.
Fisher in Michigan and Simonds in
North Carolina (Democrats) have been
defeated. In any event the Democrats
cannot obtain the organization unless
they have all the certificates from all of
the doubtful districts in the Southern
and border States. And, according to
the information here this cannot be ac-
complished upon the face of the official
returns.

Mr.. EDIToR,-I find in one of the
columns Of your paper an uncbarita.
bic, unchristian and unmanly misrep-
resentatlOn OF my statements at Mas
seys chapel on Sunday 11th inst. I
went there for the purpose of helping
them raise money to pay their church
debt. The subject of my discourse
was Liberal Giving" as they were
paying for a house for themselves and
their children to worship God in. I
also told them that they ought to be
proud of the house they had, and also
proud of the connection of which thew
formed a part; that the A. NJ. r.
connection was the grandest church of
color under the heavens, and was do
ing more to advance and elevate the
race than any other separate organiza-
ton OF the race, and then said that
the only difference there was be-
tween us and our sister church was
that they and their property were a
part and parcel Of the NJ. z. connec-
ton, that we were a separate organiza-
ton from the white church, and that
all our churches, schools, and other
property were owned, managed and
controlled by our own color. which
was a grand thing for the race. forsit
showed to the world that we were
capable of holding, managing and con-
trolling our own property as a people.
told them that it was one of the great
objects of our church to teach our peo-
pie to be more self dependent and not
to be constantly begging the white peo-
pie, that we had better live upon
bread and water in order to accom-.
plish some things ourselves. In this
statement the writer who ever he is for
ne was not manly enough to sign his
name to his artical has not only misrep-
resented my statement but has publish
ed positive falsehOOd / did not saw
that we could live independent of the
white people and never do we expect
to do so; we have always been glad of
their help, and are very thankful to
them for their repeated help, and are
thankful to God who has given them
such benevolent hearts to help us.
But man with the half of an eve can
see the object of the writer at the con.
elusion of his artical where he saws
They ought to stop begging them and
let us have their money, we will take
it and be thankful"

combination to get both the local and
