SDec,men Allies.


The northern men who are MAHoNE's
allies ar enemies 20 the people Of Ma
xoNE's own State. lie knows this fact.
IL knows that they would if they could
humiliate and degrade every southern
State. and appoint satrap for each IN the
form of an officer 10 supervise all our
roncrcssional elections He knows that II
was FoRAnEE. the man whom be invited 10
Virginia 90 make Republican speeches a
low wears ago. who denounced President
CLEVELAND for talking Of returning the
"rchrl fac" 90 rebels" and induced
him 20 override the order 10 return them.
He knows that JonN SHERMAN Is bitter
hatc1 Of the southern people. and has been
nmqhcnaut enemy ~ the South and hcrin-
fttuUon, for forty years; OF as the
founder of this paper always insisted.
SHrnM,N is the meanest' Repub-
lican in the United States. Ma
HONE knows that sherman would

law. Vet DID the last national Republican
Convention MALONE supported SHERMAN

United States Wasn't that IA vote for

this same man whom MALONE brought TO
Virginia % few years ago TO make speeches

La- for forty years kept mp d var upon the
southern people spoke at Mansfield, Ono,
on Thursday last. and there referred TO the
South as follows:
"I need not tcU YOU of the appalling

TIN. speaker is the same JOHN SHERMAN
who was General MAuoNT's favorite for
President # the United State--for Presi-
dent of the States he thus ISLANDERS.
FRED. DorGLAss 3D. another of MAHoNE's
allie. He IS one of the men whom Ma
HONE last year called upon 20 assist him in
his war upon LANGsroN. DOUGLASS COM
piled with the request. He wrote a long
lctter setting forth the reasons which IN
his opinion made IT the duty Of the negroes
If The Fourth congressional district Of
Virginia 10 defeat the negro LANGsToS.
FErD. DouGL,ss has since been appointed
Minister % Hayti whether through Ma
HoSr's influence or simply with ms coun-
teuance and approval We do not know
We doknow. however that when lac started
ON his journey o. Hayti 1t was in United
Ptates vessel and that fifteen guns were
fred in honor of tins negro ally Of MA
HONE,
These facts prove that this Republican
Administration and General MALONE are
not ashamed To endorse "a negro who adj
vocates mixed schools. SHERMAN did or
will II course vote for his confirmation.
We suppose that nearly all negroes are at
heart in favor Of mixed schools; but that
l. no reason why white men should over
look the offences Of white man. FRED.
DouGLAes's son is one Of the editors of a
negro paper Published in Washington call
ell the National Leqdcr. The son no doubt
speaks for the father. Since the election
Of HARBIsOS the LeadCr has demanded the
commingling Of white and colored children
IN the public schools. Here is specimen
of its utterances'
80 long az the separate school system
s. adhered to, based upon color, prejudice
will never die out, and Will always work to
the great disadvantage Of the colored clti-
zen. The continuance ~ this error works
great hardships To- the rising generation
among the colored people and keeps mp
i'll feeling among both cOlored and white
citizens. No discrimination should be
made among American citizens III any
thing supported 10y the public.
The schools are created and maintained Tor
the benefit of the pupils, and whatever
works to their disadvantage should be
uboliSItN.
II mixed schools be established in Wash
ineton, mixed schools will be demanded in
Virginia. More than half of MAHoNE's Viz
gina supporters are negroes. and OF these
there are, We takcit, but few who do not de-
sire the public schools 10 be mixed schools.
Some few negroes NAV be really opposed
e. such schools. We don't know certainly.
Others OF them favor separate schools be-
cause they have sense enough to know that
they must send their children to negro
schools or 20 none. But, after all is said
that can DO said on the other side, it re-
mains true tina; nearly all the negroes pre-
fer mixed schools, and would vote to es-
tablish such schools if the question were
submitted to their free vote.
FRED. DOUGLASS is only a negro after all.
lie Is specimen ally of M>HoNE's. But
the people Of Virginia will not vote for
such white man to be their Governor.
The Executive Mansion must be occupied
by man who will ally himself with no adj
vocate OF mixed schools.
SHERMAN, DOUGLASS, FORAKER, and Ma
HONE! Away with the man SHERMAN who
denounces Virginia Away with the negro
DOUGLASS who favors mixed schools.
Away with thesouth-hater FORAKER Away
with their ally MALONE.
