There is a paper published IN this city 10y

Tut few days of that paper begins to give
Significant advice TO the negroes. 1t Is not
afraid of being quoted by Democratic
speakers at this latedaq. Ourreaders may
he curious % know how it talks. We give
few specimens Of IT'S articles. The Planet
says:
They 1.-THE Dem0cratsl have repeatedly
declared that that hrlght-cycd boy OF

facts stariugv0 in tine face, cOlored men,

Rally around the old flag! Vote the en-
tire Republican ticket II never no more.
This canvass will have a telling effect on
the national election of 1892. Carry Nlr-

tell the negroes 10y implication that Ma
HoNE is in favor Of appointing and olecting
negroes 10 Office. They are to be letter
carriers, school trustees, policemen, post
masters. clerks, &C., &c, If they will only
elect MALONE 10 be Governor. MALONE
would do anything to humiliate the white
people of Virginia, and especially those OF
Richmond; and 30 We are not surprised
that his negro organ should advise the ne
Croes 10 vote for the candidate who will
supoint to Office "bright-eyed" negro
boys. By the way we have been expecting
IN vain that some Democrat would ask
MAHoxH whilst on the stump whether Ire
would appoint any negroes to be trustees
of the public schools?
We give smother extract from the negro
organ Of MALONE. IL winds up with a
threat. The Plant says;

The strangest part of the whole
matter is that there has Deen no
denial of tins fact. ColOred men are
determined 20 give no opportunity for any
such proceedings. They know that the
Democratic leaders desire some excuse for
riot and they will give them none; They
are announcing what they would do IN
such an event. II tcOuh not do to hare an

THE outrages practiced IN jackson
Ward are a disgrace 10 any city. The edi-
Tor of this paper, although a member. OF
The City Council. was "a sufferer thereby

gredter strain"
The reader can judge as well as we how
long time the PANT means to indicate by
tho words "a while" and what the negroes
are going to do when the strain" O. upon
their endurance" & , becomes too great.
Tho negro women are appealed to as fol-
lows:
wives. send your husbandsto the polls.
See that they exercise the right OF suffrage.
Make them vote
We make no comments. White voters,
proit by the PHnd'S candor.
