A RoUSING RECEPTION.
The Hendricks Club Receives the Colored
Democrats of the Country.

The Hendricks Club Receives the Colored
Democrats of the Country.
Wednesday the Hendricks club rendered a
reception to the colored delegates. Several
most excellent speeches were made. Mr.. K. (.
Adair, delegate from Arkansas, said:
GENTLEMEN OF THE HENDRICKS CLUB-t is q
pleasure for me TO meet many OF the distn yuished
gentlemen OF indianapolis on this occasion; also,
sGch q NUMBER OI my OVID race, assembled here Tor
common purpose. i hail from the great state OF
Arkansas state which this commonwealth can rely
upon 70 cast her vote IN favor OF the political party
that has always egslated in the interest of the
Of toll and against 1nOnopolies and moneyed corpo-
ratiOns. and am proud TO state that while the great
state Of Arkansas has been classed by republican Office
seekers u state whose colored vote is Suppressed,
can say, my felow-citizens that she polls the
largest cOOred democratic vote of any state in the
union, and with the assistance of that vote we
hurled from power the carpet-bag governmental ma

fear OF the old enemy OF democracy

Your family were subject to insult and yourself
ostracised and abused by members Of this so-called
cratic administration OF public affairs my people
beginning TO realize that this republican party was
only party OF spoils and It's purpose was only To
feather its own filthy nest oil the hard earnings Of
the people.
Mr.. Adair then showed how the republicans
of bis state, while in power, had misapplied
thepeople's money and left the state treasury
without dollar with which to pay the millions
of debt that had been foisted upon the tax
payers, and how the democratic party
since its advent into power had re-
stored the public credit, made substantial pub
lie improvements, built state normal schools
for the education Of both races, reduced the
rate Of taxation, paid off large portion Of the
state debt and placed the state on firm hnan-
cial basis
Mr.. Taylor, the minister to Liberia, made q
few remarks, in which he said:
In addressing this meeting Of democrats, where
made so welcome, my thoughts run back to those
days when ! first turned my face toward the demo-

ty's Candidate.
The final withdrawal of ex-Gov. Porter has
nonplussed the machine" 1t came as a sort
of surprise even to some of his most intimate
political friends The fact is that Mr.. Porter
had not previously made up his mind as to the
decision he would give.
The atmosphere about the headquarters of
the republican committee is blue. A visitor is
impressed with the fact as soon as he enters
the door that something has gone wrong.
Everything now points TO the political death
of Col. Robertson. Republicans who have
heretofore been using him gently in order TO
quiet him are now openly hostile and
are Of one mind that he shall go down
in the ruin he has wrought. Col.
Robertson, however, has taken hope
from Porter's declination and regards his
withdrawal in the light Of having one less riysi
10 down. His friends, who are somewhat sur
prised at the audiences of the thunderbOlt
will push bis candidacy with renewed vigor
There is certainly one strong point in Robert
sons favor. The republican party owes the
nomination to him as a debt OF gratitude. The
leaders have heretofore professed to know this.
but in the light Of political events they saw they
must ignore it for the good OF the party. Now
that Mr.. Porter has Withdrawn, Col. Rob-
ertson viii go before the convention
with greater demands upon the party than any
other candidate excepting, perhaps, Will Cum

perance question and never again reiterated
his statement made in the state convention of
'S4 that he protested against the backward
step of the republican party" For keeping
still he, too, must be paid.
While the candidacy Of these gentlemen has
been considered next in prominence to that of
Porter it is not at all probable that either of
them will be the candidate. The prospects are
that Congressman Steele will be chosen for the
sacrifice. When Porter began to show signs of
lukewarmness the machine began to cast about
for a suitable successor. Robertson wasn't
wanted; neither was Cumback. Several days
ago Major Steele was brought back from Wash
ington and he was right on hands when the col
lapse of the Porter movement came. A popu-
lar p demonstration was made at his home,
which will be kept up until the meeting of the
convention in the hope of showing that body
that he is legitimate successor to Porter in the
public esteem. The probabilities are that the
scheme will work

not now. Sam Young took me to San Diego
for bad purposes. He never treated me as his
wife. Four or FIVE days after he saw me
he bought me. l do not remember any
white men coming to Tung Docks house when
L was there with piece Of paper (meaning a
marriage license). Sam Young wanted to sell
me in San Diego. When we were coming up
from San Diego Sam Young told me to say that

Judge. Rearden-"Do you want to 90 to
NO, no." replied the witness, shaking her
head In a most vigorous manner.
Judge Rearden-"DO you want to 90 with
this man. Sam Young?"
When this question was interpreted to the
witness she shook her head with such earnest
that audible smile went around the
courtroom.
DO you want to stay at the mission?"
This question being interpreted, Get Vows
face assumed most delighted expression. and
she replied with pathetic earnestness in the
affirmative.
Judge Rearden-There is certainly no de-
tention here, and can't remand the woman
into the Gust 1dy of this husband of hers as he
calls hmself-in fact | don't know as the hus-
band has the custody of his WIFE They don't
in all cases, certainly. The only relief for the
petitioner that can see is to sue for a divorce
on the ground of desertion.
At this judicial sally everybody laughed and
the court adjourned.
When Get Vow left the courtroom she chung
closely to Miss Culbertson, casting fearful
gances at the scowling faces of the baffled
slave-dealers, who skunk along in the rear in
wholesome awe of Offer GlennOn, who escorted
Miss Culbertson and her charge back to the
mission.

SAN FRANCISCO, July pa sensation has
been created by the final report of the grand
jury of the city and county of San Francisco.
The jury was composed of nineteen represent
alive men of the city, and they had been in
session nearly seven weeks. Most of the de-
partments of the city government the
jury criticised severely. Speaking of
the Chinese quarter the report says:
'This San Francisco Sodom, with all its loath-
some features, has become so familiar that it
has ceased to inspire horror among our citizens.
1t is only strangers who realize the hideousness
! and flthiness of the slums. 1t is vain to point
out the disgrace of having such foul cancer
in the very heart of this great metropolis.
This has been done here for more than quar-
ter of a century, and still the evils spread. Its
gambling dens, its brothels and its opium
joints flourish in spite OF our police, and its in
habitants live in foul kennels which stihe Wis
itors with their hnbearable stenches."
