McCABE FOR REGISTER.

Hon. E. P. McCabe, ex-auditor of
Kansas, is candidate for register of
the treasury, place so ably filled
during President Arthur's term by
ex-senator B. K. Bruce. The West
is especially proud of Mr.. McCabe.
Kansas never had an ADLER state off
Ger. His ability was duly acknowl-
edged by the unanimity with which
MS candidacy was endorsed for a Sec
ond term and the very large vote he
received at the polls. The west
would be proud to see so worthy a
representative of an oppressed race
hOnored with an important appoint
ment by the present administration.
=. ?. McCabe would dignity any Of
flee in the treasury department from
secretary down. Besides such a place
as the one for which he aspires is his
by right of promotion and should be
promptly rendered him.-Gate City
Press, Kansas City, Mo.
Mr.. McCabe is true type Of the
possibilities of the young Negro; and
while we have no special complaint
to make against cur old men, We
would like to see cur young men
brought to the front. Our present
condition requires men Of greater &C
tivitJ and courage to lead.

PREJUDICE HERE AND EVERY.
WHERE.
TT. Leavenworth, Kan


On every side the Negro meets
prejudice. Still be must not give
way to this deadly blood poison that
runs through the white mans veins.
Let US equip ourselves and fight
against this strong prejudicial feeling
to be found everywhere, the house of
the Lord forming no exception. Let
us be our own physicians, fill our own
prescriptions, and let our medicine
be our own perseverance. Although
our roads may be rough and thorny,
and every side great mountains OF OPP
position may confront US, yet with
united forces and perseverance we
can overcome these obstacles and
press onward and upward. To you
who are in business, and who are
seeking positions, do not be diScour-
aged but fight the harder. This
great arch demon, the prince OF
darkness-prejudice, must be over
come. In this terrible conflict we
must pr ess the battle to the gate.

claim that there is u wide discrepancy
between the wages paid them and those
paid In the Western mills, although
there Is no tariff wall between the two

works, has intimated that he would
not tolerate the interference Of the
Amalgamated Association, and the
probability is that big strike will be
the outcome.
