A QUESTION OF CIVIL RIGHTS


The civil rights amendment to the
constitution has been assailed. The
attacks comes. not from the south, but
from Boston, the home OF Wendell
Phillips, the stronghold In the days OF
anti-slavery agitation Of the abolition
lists. Had the capstone Of Bunker Hill
monument fallen from its place the
painful surprise would not have been
greater than ensces upon the declaration
Of Prof. John Lawrence Sullivan that he
cannot meet Prof. jackson. late Of
Australia, upon terms Of equality ln the
twenty-four foot ring; and not only
that, but he will decline TO permit the
light Of his countenance 10 shine or the
weight OF his mighty left duke to fall
upon any one who has 80 far forgotten
the dignity due q gentleman and q
slugger a. TO put up his hands in trial
OF dexterity In giving and of endurance
In taking with the gentleman from the
Antipodee, who. though 3 son OF Ham,
has shown himself to be wonderfully
well equipped for argument In the
school OF logic In which Prof. Sullivan
has hitherto been supposed 10 stand
supreme. 1t might be injudicious 10
suggest that the length OF reach pos
sessed by the Australian, his agility. bis
science, his racial hardness OF sconce,
his Indifference TO attacks that might
mar the symmetry OF q Caucasian nose,
have something 10 do with the decision OF
Prof. Sullivan to not countenance the
aspirations Of this particular represent
atiye OF the colored race 10 social
equality with the cultured professionals
Of the occidental world. To advance
the theory that what befell another ex-
positOr OF the hstic art, McAuliffe by
name, who debated the question of race
superiority with Prof. jackson at San
Francisco Friday night, has Influenced
Prof. Sullivan 10 take the stand he has
assumed, would be 10 admit that he has
pre-eminent qualities for membership In
the noble and illustrious Order OF Wind
Jambers, which certain enyious rivals In
the istic philosophy have attributed to
him for the last six or eight years. or
ever since Paddy Ryan's truss won a
worldwide fame at New Orleans. The
truth may never be known. II may be
approximated. however. when II tran
spires whether or no Prof. Sullivan
really intends to meet Prof. Kilraln and
discuss the question at issue between
them according TO the London p. r
rules. AT present, and In the light OF

NO PAPER TOMORROW.

No paper will issue from this office to-
morrow
This announcement calls for an eI-
PLANTATION.
New Years day unlike Christmas,
Thanksgiving, ard the Fourth OF July,
is what might be termed a news-produc-
ing day. Indeed, with the facilities for
the collection OF news that are possessed
by the INDEPENDENT, paper might be
advantage 1usly issued even the days fol
lowing the anniversaries excepted above.
Three general holidays have come with
in five weeks. and II was the intention
OF the INDEPENDENT TO break, TO-
morrow, the rule which has prevailed
hitherto OF suspending publication on
the day after New Years and Issue q
paper as usual. But In the Early days Of
OF the Helena typographical union. as
in the infancy Of unions elsewhere,
when compositors were scarce. rule
was adopted that work on Sundays and
legal holidays should call for double pay.
Elsewhere the rule has been rescinded
in Difference 10 the wishes Of the public
and because there is now no scarcity OF
printers anywhere. The effect OF the re-
peal OF the double-price rule has been
that daily papers In towns Of equal I'm
portince with Helena are printed every
day except Monday, and In some cases
even on that day. But unfortunately
the Helena typographical union has moi
kept pace with the times. The ISDE'
PENDENT compositors are the only onet
who would be affected by the repeal OF
the rule, and TO man they are
favorable TO such repeal. The
INDEPENDENT Is the only news
paper In the city that would
avail itself Of the repeal TO issue thu
morning after q holiday. But In spit,
OF these facts. and In spite OF the fact
that those compositors who would moi
care 10 work would be permitted 10 en-
gage substitutes, Of whom there are an
abundance, the Helena Typographical
union, dominated by printers moi
directly concerned and by tramps ant
bummers, has refused 10 revoke tn,
double-price rule.
The principle Of double price for holi
day work Is utterly absurd and unten
able. The very tramps who voted
against the repeal would protes
vehemeltly should the men behind tn,
bars, where they spend the most Of thei
earnings, exact double price for holi
days" A grocer, milkman. domesti
who exseted an extra price for good
sold or services rendered on hollda
would have no opportunity TO ask |
twice OF the same householder. Bu
c0mpOsitors-or some OF them-regar
themselves as privileged class and a
once wrong the employer and his sui
scribers by setting up a rule that
vicious In its conception and dishoDes
in its workings. and that only operate
TO deprive men. Of one days pay, whic
most Of them can Ill afford TO lose.

GulIEAu.S CURSE.


A dispatch from New York printed In
Sundays issue reported that Dr. Me-
Donald. a aspecialist In mental diseases
and whose evidence In the trial OF Gui-
teau helped the assassin OF President
Garfield on his wav 10 the gallows. had
become insane, and alluded TO the fact
rs another singular apparent coinci-
dencs OF the curse OF Guiteau." The
coincidence Is purely imaginary. II is
no uncommon thing for men who have
made study OF insanity TO fall victims
TO the malady themselves. especially II
they have come much In contact with
the insane, and the reason for this is not
hard 10 find by any one who has visited
great hospital for lunatics.
As 10 the inference that others have
fallen victims to"Guiteau's CURSE" there
IL ~ little basis, OF less. Col. COrkhill,
who conducted the prosecution, is dead.
but the causes OF his death were purely
natural, and nothing specially sensa-
tionsl marked his demise. lie had been
busy man, a lawyer, journalist and
politician, aud his intense activity
doubtless tended TO hasten the end OF his
days. Judge Cox. who presided at the
trial, which was notable for its length
and the intense strain 1t imposed upon
the court aud his officers. is still living
II would be singular, indeed, IL some Of
the many people-witnessess, jurymen
lawyers, etc. connected with the trial
conviction and execution Of the assassin
should not die under unusual ciTcum
stances, but TO In any way connect sucl
deaths with the curses OF 'renzie,

ONE more reason why haste should be
made Ia the admission Of Montana TO

have the privilege Of drawing upon this

Marsh, by a coarse adventures known as
Ann 0delia Diss Debar, claiming TO be
the wife OF Gen. Diss Debar and
daughter Of the notorious Lola Montez
by the king OF Bavaria, and who pre-
tended 10 possess supernatural gifts, by
which she was enabled 10 paint portraits
OF persons deceased and living In an
incredibly short space Of time and In the
presence Except for a screen) OF the per-
son for whom II was intended. Mr..
Marsh was a thorough believer In the
impOstress, and paid her for scores Of
daubs that were manufactured ina gar
ret by "Gen." Diss Debar and palmed
off ss portraits by the glib dame, his al
legged wife. At last, In order TO save him
from financial ruin, the relatives Of Mr..
Marsh sought and obtained the appoint
ment Of cOnseryatOr over him and In
stitnted criminal proceedings against
the Dlss Debars, which resulted In their
condemnation TO prison. At the same
time the children Of Madam Diss Debar
were given In charge Of the New York
Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty 10
Children. The terms OF imprisonment
Of the Dlss Debars having expired, the
madame went into court last week 10
claim the custody OF her children. Her
attorney was her dupe, Luther II. Marsh,
who took occasion In the course OF his
argument 10 reailirm his belief IN the
genuineness OF Madam Diss Debar's al
legged spirit pictures, thus giving one
more evidence OF the truth OF Moore's
poetic declarationln the yelled Prophet"

fanatic faith, once welded fast
To some dear idol, hugs II 10 the last. !"
TIL impOsture was 10 palpable, the
character OF the manipulat0rs was 30
bad, that the most credulous and the
least familiar with the tricks OF that
class Of people would have been inex-
cusable for falling into the trap; but Mr..
Marsh is a lawyer OF more than ordinary
ability, presumably trained In the detec-
tien OF cheats, and yet he became not
only an easy prey, but willing one.
The case illustrates forcibly the ease
with which claims to the supernatural
will overcome the minds OF men i'm
peryious to deceit under other forms.
