RESPONDING 10 the general wish Of the
democracy in this district, Gov. James
B. McCreary announces that he VIII be
n candidate for reelection TO Congress,
subject to any action that the party may
take in nominating a standard-bearer.
This announcement will be hailed with
appreciation by large majority of the
voters of the Sth district, for Gov. Me-
Creary occupies warm place in the
hearts OF his constituents. No man was
ever more watchful of their interests or
more alive TO the general welfare OF the
country. In every station to which the
people have called him, whether as legis-
lator, governor or congressman, he has
demonstrated capacity and faithfuness
which has made his name the synonym
for all that is model and praiseworthy in
an official. In the Congress OF the Unit
ed States he occupies high position, mis-
ability. integrity and honesty of purpose
being recognized even by his political
enemies. Calm and conservative in the
snalyzation OF all public subjects, his
opinions are regarded with respect and
weight and no democratic member OF
the Lower House stands higher in every |
body's estimation than he. His name is
associated with much OF the important
legislation of the last Congress and he /
has introduced and pressed to passage
numerous acts OF great national benefit.
OF course the democracy OF this district
intends to keep him in Congress rs long
as he wants to GO, and will We dare say
nominate him without opposition to he
his successor, and then elect him by even
a larger majority than has ever been Civ
en- him in the district, that he has made
famous for large msjorities.

No such demonstration ever occurred
in the South as was witnessed at Rich

followed him for the "lost cause" gath
cred to do honor to the grandest soldier
and chieftan this country has produced,
Gen. Robert +. Lee. The occasion was
the unwilling OF splendid statue OF him
that had been purchased by the women
OF the South. The capital OF the Con-
federacy was decorated as she never was
before and everybody seemed to vie with
everybody else to make it an occasion to
be remembered always and cherished
with fond affection.

The Legislature petered ont at noon
TUESDAY after doing many things that II
ought not to have done and leaving un.
done those things that il should have
done. 1t paid no attention TO the gov
ernor's communication that the reduc-
ton of taxation cents on the 500 will
create deficiency in the treasury OF
SIC. 900 next month and $50, 1000 in June,
1891. The honor and integrity OF the
State is small matter 10 the average
legislator, bent upon making a record
and pulling the wool over the eyes OF
his simple minded constituents. The
governors parting shot ought, however,
to take all the wind out OF their sails
Says he: when yOu convened the
financial condition OF the treasury was
excellent and the credit OF the State un-
impaired. On the eve of your adjourn
ment the treasury is depleted and the
means provided for defraying the neces-
sary expenses Of the State are made
quate. Many other public interests are
also left unsettled, If do not recon
vene the General Assembly in extra ses-
sion it is because suggestions which have
not been considered during prolonged
session, now about to close, would not
be likely to receive attention il you were
reconyened."

DEATH OF CLOE LANGTON.

The death of Aunt Cloe" Langton
at New Hartford, ended a career that
had gained widespread interest
She had been an invalid confined to
her bed for over 60 years, and had
shown such patience and cheerful
ness that her story was written and
published and gained large circula-
ton among Sunday schools and re-
ligious societies. But she often ex-
pressed a regret at the treatment
given the work, for she looked upon
it as sad story, while her own days
passed most happily. She was born
at New Hartford in 1912, and at the
age of IA became a member of DIR.
Cyrus Yale's church. She did not
become an invalid until she was 16
years old, when she was attacked
with the disease which kept her bed
ridden all her days. Then she became
utterly helpless, and a swing was
used to take her from bed day by
day. She died of the prevailing cpl

were encouraged to earn some special

which was, think, turning point

THE BLACK MAN ANSWERS THE
WHITE.

Last week Senator Morgan of Ala
bama, with assumed seriousness
for we cannot apprehend that it was
reaI-said, in q session of the United
States Senate, in speech on the
proposed forced emigration of the
negro to Africa =
II He had reached the conclusion
that there was 4 natural incOngruity
and an irrepressibIe conflict between
Fthe races, which nothing could cure
Except their final separation. The
return of the negro race to Africa
was the final and only solution to
the problem. 1t was undeniable that
the aversion between the two races
had greatly increased since slavery
was abolished, and it would increase,
$50 long as a large portion of the
|spopulation was of the African race
|Expcrience would not permit the
#statement that such feeling of aver
#sion existed only in the South. 1t
was not so intense in the South as it
was in the North. 1t was not so
strong between the negro and his
former master as it was between the
fnegro and those who never owned
Slaves In Africa the negro could
%grow up to the full measure of his
destiny In the Congo basin were
found the best type of the African
race, and the American negro would
Il find there a field for his efforts"
And on the same day DR.. J. c.
Price. president of the cOlOred college
at Salisbury, n. c., and one of the
foremost ora tors ofhis race, delivered
at Chcstera speech that is attracting
great attention. He said
This sunny Southland, where lie
the bleaching bones of my fathers, is
dear to me. and l, too, feel to the
manor born This soils consecra ted
bv the labor, the tears and the
PRAYERS of my ancestors Talk about
Ethiopia, talk of Africa. but | believe
that God intends the negro race to
work out here in the South the high
est status he has ever attained If
anybody wants to go to Mexico, or
Kansas, or anywhere else, let him
pack his trunk and go of his own free
Awill- Let Congress appropriate if it
&swants. | will respectfully ask it to
4 take back my part. Nhen Con
3reSs legislatcS the black man back

IegisIate the white man back to
Europe When one goes, the other
4 ought to go too"

GRINDING THE FARMERS.

The farmers who produce the milk
consumed by New York city receive
pot more than 90 cents a quart and
generally 1sto 2 80 cents, while the
consumers pay s and 10 cents, and
the very largest buyers at least six
cents. The big difference goes to the
milk peddlers, who are organized
and have forced down the prices at
which they buy, and probably also
forced up those at which they sell.
THE producers claim that they are
being robbed, and have themselves
organized to get Il more equitable
share Of the difference They claim
that the present prices paid them
really leave them nothing for the
wages of labor, and the prices of
farms near the city
are SO low as to prove the truth of
what the farmers say.
