and the interest to be devoted to the
education of eolored people in the
old slave States Of the South. The
association is to have unrestricted
charge Of the expenditure Of the in
terest, except that it must be devot-
ed to the education of such colored
people as are needy and INDECENT, land
such as by their health, strength and
vigor OF body and mind give indica.
tions of efficiency and usefulness in
after life.
Mr.. Daniel Hand, the donor Of
of this noble gift, was grocer in
Charleston, S. G., before the war,
and, being Of Northern sentiments,
was forced to fly to the North when
the war broke out, leaving all his
property of about $4,000 in charge

tial clerk, and a Southern pine lands
became very rich Six years ago
Judge Luzon B. Morris, OF New Ha-
ven, counsel for Mr.. Hand, advised
the latter to seek a settlement with
Mr.. Williams. Mr.. Williams came
to New Haven and honorably paid
up the original sum and interest,
amounting to $64S,0 sending on
the last installment two years ago.
This amount, with the acc ued inter
est, form the great bulk Of the sum
now returned to the South by Mr..
Hand.
Under the terms Of the trust not

for the education of any single col

Chairman Brice, of the democratic ma

election.
The republicans carry California by
from 5000 to 10000, Indiana by 5000 to
4,0G0 West Virginia is still in doubt,
and require official count to decide the
results. Virginia is democratic.
The representation in the next con-
gress will be very close. The indications
are that the republicans will have a
small majority.
Full official returns from New York
state place Harrison's plurality at 1900,
and Hills plurality, dem. for governor,
will exceed this.
The Evening Post makes the electoral
vote stand, Harrison 233, Cleveland 1853.
Giving West Virginia to the demo
crats, the indications are that the repub-
lie rs have majorities in the legislatures
of West Virginia and Delaware, which
will give the party two additional United
States Senators.

Reflection on the Result.

SobeIed by four years ofrefection
on its first defeat after a quarter of
century of successive victories, the
Republican PARTY has fought and
won the Presidential campaign of
1888. Many fortuitous circumstan-
ces have favored them in obtaining
the victory circumstances which
were independent ofthe party mana
gers ard therefore not to be credited
to their wisdem or skill. But whether
by its own well directed efforts, the
blunders of the opposing party or
providential causes. the Republican
party has beaten again the Demon
cratic party and have the reigns of
the Republic in its hands for
another four years.
There is no doubt but that great
majority of the American people
favor Protective Tariff on articles
of home manufacture, and will con-
tinue to do SO as long assuch policy
tends to the development ofhome
industries But the tariff needs re-
vision and the interests of the con-
sumers Of the country demand that
for all articles on which the tax can
be reduced or wiped out without en-
dangering any home industry that
the same be done. The party is
committed by its platform to re-
duction Of the burdens Of taxation
both internal and otherwise, to the
lowest figures necessary for the well
fare Of the government. A speedy
fufillment of this promise will en-
graft the party anew in the conf
dence of the people.
Another overshadowiug question
is that of Federal aid to education,
as provided for in the Blair bill. The
party cand nothing which will secure
firmer hold upon the good will of
the people than the establishment on
an effective basis system ofNation-
al aid to the common schools.
1t is not expected or expes
ient that we should at
this time point out singly all the
measures which we feel it the duty
of the party to put into execution.
Enough for us at this time to outline
the general policy which the people
by their ballots endorsed Tuesday in
electing the standard bearers of the
Republican party. Of course the
vital principle Of the grand oldparty;
fair play and equal rights to all men.
irrespective of race or condition, will
be guarded ,zealouslY. The lowe4t

citizen must at the hands Of the

government under republican
administration share the same pro-
lection "in life, liberty and the pur~
suit happiness. This done, the
Negro with all other races, can, say
to President Harrison and his ad-
yisors at the end of his administra-
ton, "Well done, good and faithful
servant"
The Republican more than at any
period in its history will enter into
Office on the Fourth Of March next
charged with great responsibilities
upon the proper discharge Of which
depends its future If as we have
said the leaders lay aside the faction
al quarrels Of the past and unite for
the welfare of good government and
a successful administl alton, all things
will be we'll.
The party must be on its good be
havior. Its enemy the Democratic
party is an indomitable foe. That
person who imagines for a second
that the Democratic party has been
killed by Tuesdays defeated is poor
student Of political events. That
'unterrifed' party has with stood
more defeats and remained a power
full organization through it all than
any like party in our history. 1t
will watch all the actions and meas
ures of the Republicans and meet
them in the next campaign with
redoubled efforts to regain the gov
ernment.
The President-elect succeeds a
Democrat, it is true, but giving him
his due, he has made the country an
efficient, conservative and safe exec
utive. We think the Negro especi.
ally should accord to Mr.. Cleveland
credit for the very manly and cour-
ageous spirit Of his administration.
He has shown grrat cons dera ton in
his dealings with colored citizens and
taught his party lesson which they
will profit by learning.
President Cleveland by his official
acts has done his part toward max
ing the welfare and advancement of
colored citizens independent Of tie
success or defeat Of any party. The
success Of neither party will make
living for the Negro. Like all other
citizens he takes his place in race for
life and expects to live manly by
''the sweat of his brow" With fair
play and equal rights by well direct
individual efforts he will win his way
in the world. 1t is the duty Of the
government whether administered
by President Harrison or a Demo
crat to see that he is protected and
fostered in these efforts, alike with
other citizens.
