he was thrown. Mr.. Randail's con-

The arraignment of President Harrl-
son, by Mr.. Curtis, In Philadelphia last
week, on which the States has already
commented, is finding Endorsement all
over the United States, not alone
among Democrats and in Democratic
organs. but in the organs Of Mr.. Harri-
sons own party. Here, for example,
is what the Philadelphia Telegraph,
one of the ablest Republican papers of
the North, whose ability to form an
opinion, is certainly not lessened by Its
fearlessness of utterauce, has to say
respecting Mr.. Curtis indictment:
s.Mr. Curtis called attention to the
fact-concerning which there can be no
dispute-that Benjamin Harrison as q
candidate for President of the United
States not only came before the people
on q platform of jealous promises In
behalf of reform, but that upon many
occasions during the campaign he ex-
pressed himself most clearly and forci'
bly upon this subject, and argued,
with aptness and force, that he was ac'
cepted by the people as one party to a
solemn covenant. He then proceeoeo
to show that throughout the past SIX
months there has been the most reck-
less, Systematic aud persistent viola.

the President himself and those called
to his aid in administering the gov

and that the almost universal demand
of the Republican local leaders ant

A monkey recently brought crlmi-

travelled through the Straits settles

money by his animals tricks. One
day he was found with his throat cut,
the boy and the bear lying dead close
by, while the monkey had escaped up

were being taken to the police station

The colored men OF Illinois are max.
ing their regular annual complaint
against the ingratitude Of the Republi-
can party. Perhaps there Will be
time when colored citizens will Geese
complaining and begin voting. they
will never amount to much In poltt.
zeal sense, either North or South, until
they develop sufficient independence
and courage to make their aspirations
felt at the ballot box.
The Herald has spoken truly OF tie
race problem in politics when It has
said that the Republican party mas no
interest In the colored man except as
he may be used at the South to foment
race wars and thus fire the Northern
heart. All of its fine morality and us
lofty regard for the man and brother Is
not for the negro at It's own doors, pu!
for tt /, negro who lives tnousano
miles away. The laws which 1t makes
are not for its own government, Dut
for the regulation of the whites OF the
i South. Tho lights which 1t demands
for the negroes are for the negroes OF
the Souih-not for the negroes OF the
North.
!, No northern negro enjoys social or
. | business qualify Will snS W a'seS'
race is used by the Republican party
| for voting purposes. Beyond the bal.
lot box II has no politician righte. II
, gets no recognition save of the cheap.
est sort, and after Fred Douglass,
professional negro has been provided
: for. the party has no use for the black
: man until the next election. The col
ored element is large enough in most
of the populous Northern States to con-
troll the federal government. To 1t the
II Republican party is indebted for every
: victory that it has gained In the las'
# twenty years. Without the negro vote
that party would be In minority O
more than a million of votes. The
l. failures of this potential force to i'm
8. press itself upon the political life OF tn
10 republic, therefore, is one of tn
" strongest proofs of It's untitness for tn
~ high privileges that have been con
ferred upon 1t.
,. The Herald looks with favor upo'
y such meetings as that held yesterda:

r, cative of mental and political progress

In making a comparison between
the sum paid for pensions in the Unt-
ted States and other countries, the st.
Louis Republic shows that we pay
seven times the sum paid by the Brit.
ish government. Our payments for
yearly pensions are, indeed, SIC, zoo, 600
in excess of the whole cost OF the mill
tury establishment of Great Britain
both for effective and ncn.effective ser.
vice. We pay sixteen times as much
for pensions as the German Govern
meut appropriates for the same pur-
pose, Notwithstanding lis great stands
ing army and more recent wars. The
following table shows the annual pay
nents in five of the leading countries
of Europe:
Great Britain Sl2I95, 6SS
France. lI'OOO,OOO
Germany ''.'... 4'coo'o1o
A As,sia M Hungary : rs 90
The pension payments this year In
this country will be three times as
large as the payments made by these
five European countries. 1t must also
be remembered that the pensioners OF
the United States are mainly confined
to the Northern States, whereas in the
European countries named they repre-.
sent an undivided population. In the
light of such facts, those who care to
form reasonable opinions about the
pension policy of the country may find
matter for thoughtful consideration.
