Gentlemen:
| need not say to you,
that the movement set forth in
your favor of the 11th inst. filled
me with surprise not second to
the gratitude and warm apprecia-
tion it has aroused in my being.
For the past twenty-one years
during which my lot has been
cast with the people of this Dis
trict, [ have felt that their interes,
and mine were Identical, and that
it was my duty to lend my efforts.
however humble, to any good
cause that needed assistance.
have never so valued my services
as to ask or accept payment, it is
therefore, with all the deeper
gratitude, | greet this offer az
testifying that I perhaps have not
altogether failed in my earnest
efforts. [ am honestly proud to

counter-cross combinations which
run local matter to the detriment
of the best interests of the people.
That President Cleveland should
attempt to embarrsss the incom-

in the Executive, which the repre-.
sentative branch of the govern

THE OPINION IN NEW YORK.
DISTRICT POLITICS. REV. DERRICKS
POPULARITY.


1t seems to be pretty we'll settled
fact that the local Offices 10 the Dis
trict of Columbia which have here.
tofore been a bone Of contention be-
tween residents and non residents
will be given to bonafide citizens
where vacancies exist or are to be
created provided that competent
and reliable can be found to fill
them, there will be no difficulty In
that regard so far as the District of
Columbia is concerned. No people in
any state of the Union have been as
badly treated IN this respect as the
citizens of the District of Columbia,
who have quietly and patiently pos
ed as political nOn-entities withou
any just reason and certainly exact
of their volitien. Information from
source which cannot at present be
given, warrants the belief that for
the future the District Offices will
be filed by District men when
they are found capable aud trust
worthy. The President elect is al
ready in possession Of information
upon this subject which will largely
influence him in considering the
question which he alone must deci-
lie viz, the right of the taxpayer to
representation, and a voice in the
administration of local state gov
ernment. Mr.. Harrison may be
relied upon to give to the District
of Columbia a set of officers who
will give satisfaction to all classes
OF republicans, and who will COM
mand the respect even OF hide
bound democrats, who are living
in Washington to save funeral ex-
penses. I have discovered fiat
District politics are manipulated
in New York ,as we'll as national
and state politics and it will be
found before many moons have
glided past, that a certain we'll
known political organization here
outlives and directs the policy of
republican administrations and
there will be no exception this
time.
The Rev. DR.. W. B. Derrick, d.
D. is a popular man with the mas
seq of the colored people of New
York aud he has strong and inffu-
entail power among the best white
people of the state. recently at
tended a meeting of colored citi-
zens at DR.. Wishers church in 53rd
st. where DR.. Derrick Was announc
ed to speak. He entered the church
while Rev. Dickerson was speak,
ing and when his presence became
known the entire audience arose
and cheered him. It is the hardest
thug in the world to kill a man
who has the people on his side of
the fence. DR.. Derrick isn't a.
mong the number of distinguished
great leaders who is going to con-
troll the incoming administration,
but he will have an influence that
will be respected by those in power.
He is ell right and this means q
great deal more than appears on
the surface. Bruce Grit:

He is to weak to relic on his own re-

Men connot turn when they see

Brilliant men will be present at

Personal endorsements will not

All applicants must have the

The young men will be given q

Democratic brutality still contin-

Will democratic political perse-

Let every negro editor in the

How He Became Famous,

The Walker, Iowa, News, says: "Our
old friend, Robert Baird, OF Muscatine,
Iowa, has been secretary of the state
senate and an active politician for years,
but was never generally known until he
had the collie and used Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrh0a Remedy, and
got into one OF their advertisements. Now
he is famous" Here IS what Mr.. Baird
said: "While in Des Moines, was taken
with a severe attack OF bowel complaint.
For two days I suffered intensely, trying
several drug stores and paying them for
relief, but in vain. l finally bought q
small bottle of Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhpa Remedy, and two
doses OF that brought me out all right.
1t costs less than the drug store prepare
tons and have the balance for future
use. l consider it grand remedy" %

Chama Northwest.
In our usually peaceable and quiet
town quite an episode occurred last
Sunday evening. Major VIM. Cafl'rey,
editor OF the Leader, was horsewhip ped
by the ex-Rev. Sigh, editor of the Nogal
Nugget. They met at the Corner saloon
and Sigh opened on the major by using
the lash end of q buggy whip, drawing
blood in several places from his face and
neck. The major then attempted to use
his shilleah (walking STICKY and a scutlle
ensued, which resulted in tumble, with
the major underneath. At this point
spectators interfered. This trouble grew
out OF an article which appeared in the
Leader of the 7th inst, in which charges
were preferred against j. E. Sigh and
family. The festivities of the 4th, sea-
soned with goodly supply OF "fire water"
doubtless increased the bravery of the
major, or the article referred to would not
have defaced the pages of the Leader.
From what some say who witnessed the
occurrence, it would appear that but for
the interference of bystanders the shutters
would now be closed on the Leader office
and major Cahrey would only be known
as one OF the "has beens.--White Oaks
Interpreter.

How Shall They DIE?

In New York they are having tough

the plea that execution by electricity is
prohibited by the constitution, which says
criminals shall not be executed in crue
or unusual manner. The fight is one o.
technicalities, and may eventually save
the life OF murderer.
