THEORY VS.. PRACTICE.

What great and useful institutions
would labor unions be, if they carried
out what Chauncey VI. Depew declared
as their objects, in his address before the
International Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers.
The fundamental idea Of your broth
erhood." he said. ''Is, first. charity in
support of the sick and injured, and con-
tributions to the families Of the dead:
second. education, which perfects the
artisan in the theory and practice of his
trade and broadens him for larger use
fitness as a citizen; and third, protec-
ton in securing and maintaining your
rights
How few carry out such commend
able plan. Their charity consists in Civ
ing to those whom they command to
quit work 4 sum equal TO a small portion
Of what they could have earned by
work, the education in narrowing their
minds TO believe that they alone have
rights and the employers have none, and
the protection Of these rights in trying To
infringe the rights of their employers.

memory of Lincoln brings out with
more vivid prominence the progress
which the colored race have made III
America since thew received their
liberty through the process of revolution.
The rapid enlightenment of the negro
slaves and the manner in which they nave
accommodated themselves to conditions
for which they seemed wholly unhtted
at the time of their liberation, IS one OF
the most remarkable incidents OF history.
The problem which seemed so dltncuIt
Of solution twenty-eight years ago mas
been wrought out without any OF the
friction which there was so much rea-
son TO fear when the negroes were IN
vested with the rights of citizenship
The harmonious results in which every
sincere patriots rejOJces today nave been
brought about gradually and VITA ap-
parent ease, and every year witnesses
closer approach TO civil equality De-
tween the races.
The negroes have manifested sur
prising facility for helping themselves,
and they respond readily to the Infiu-
ences of civilization. They are suScepu-
BILE of education, and among the younger
generations there is notable decree OF

shown an interest in the establishment
of schools and colleges and now main
tain quite a number of we'll equipped IN
situations of learning where the young
men and women of the colored race
may receive the benefits OF higher IN
structiOn.
The negroes have developed a measure
of thrift which is little less than marvel
GUS considering the dependent condition
of the race for so many generations. IN
the state of Texas alone there at least lO0
ex-slaves who are each worth over SlUO,-
600, and this is only an example OF the
prosperity which they have realized IN
other states. This happy consummatlon
is not the sequence of a fOrclble policy.
1t is rather the result of non-lnterterence.
There is but one way to serve the negro,
and that is TO let him alone and give him
a chance to work out his own destiny.
He is doing this patiently and with de-
gree of success which Is as gratifying as
il is remarkable, and the only enemies
which he has to fear are the extremists,
who, after more than a quarter of cen
turv of peace between the north and the
south, are advocating a measure which
would revive strife between these sec
tons. and involve the negroes in con-
flict which would entail upon them I'M
necessary suffering and hardship. No
greater misfortune could possibly hap
pen to the colored people of the south
than the enactment into a law OF the
mischievous measure known as the
Lodge bill. and their recent happy Jubl-
lee attested that no such legislation Is
demanded in their behalf

WORTHY AND WELL QUALIFIED.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
Col. j. r. Hallowell is truly worthy
the position Of congressman of the Big
Seventh district. He is a good lawyer. a
man of mature judgment and superior
business qualifications, and besides, he IS
an old soldier, and wears the title of
colonel which he won. as his record as
a soldier shows. He is also always &C
cessibe TO the humblest citizen. His pO-
litical sagacity pointed him out as the
man to take charge Of the peoples inter-
ests. which ne will handle with such skill
that the voters of the Seventh congress
ional district will never have any reason
10 regret his election. His Unbending
honesty in public and private matters
will secure for him, from beginning to
end. high standing in the halls of con-
greSS.
In politics he enjoys the full conf
dence of his party, all over where he is
known. He also handles the issues of
the day with such dexterity that all who
have had the pleasure Of hearing him,
are thoroughly convinced that he is the
model man for us to support, and will
undoubtedly receive the united vote of
every true, loyal voter in the Big Sew
enth district, on November 4, 1890.

That was intended 10 be very clever
little coup, the performance of the Dem
ocratic congressional committee at
Hutchinson Wednesday in proclaiming
Jerry Simpson the Democratic candidate
for congress for this district, but it was
about the silliest. sickliest performance
we ever saw by men credited with even n
moderate degree OF common sense or
political smartness. The only body
authorized to do that, deliberately re-
fused to. and its action was endorsed by

The old scheme of organizing an insti-
tuition 10 be known az the National Col
lection Bank Of New York. with CAPT
tai of 81 .00O, 600, and net surplus Of
100000, is being revived by the daily
press of that city. 1t Is also reported
that cooperative banks Of the same char
acter are now in process Of organizing in
Chicago. Boston and Philadelphia. The
proposed object Of these banks Is To
make collections of checks drawn upon
banks outside of the cities mentioned. Ii
is estimated that the New York banks
handle daily obout $4,000, 000of country
drafts and checks We do not believe
that active operations have yet begun for
the contamination of this scheme. The
Financier saws a national hank of collec-
ton may be organized m New York. but
several years may be expected to eiapse
before such an institution becomes a
reality.

people of his district regardless of party.
Granting the force of the argument as
far as it goes, 1t applies with equal force
in favor of Hon. B. w Perkins, of the
Third district of this state. 1t is known
and admitted by everybody that Mr..
Perkins did as much or more hard work
in the cause referred TO than any other
member of congress. Kansas has in
some WAYS been the greatest benefic airy
of the opening of the Indian lands, in
GLIDING Oklahoma. Of any other state,
and Mr. Perkins district has re-
ceived the largest share of
these benefits. If, therefore, the
circumstances referred to are TO be used
to the credit of a man in distant state,
how much more forcefh they become in
favor Of the real champion of the cause
in question.
But this is but one instance wherein
Mr.. Perkins has manifesteda willingness,
not only. but an earnest desire to serve
the best interests of his constituency and
the state as he understands them. The
eight years he has served the Third dis
trict has been filed with earnest, pains
taking endeavOr to further the material
concerns of the people. The voters of
the Third district are not so lacking in ap-
probation Of the labors in their behalf Of
their faithful and efficient representative
as to be led off after ack-with-a-lantern
in a vain search for the unattainable. As
Lucien Baker would remark, not much,

The political leaders of West Virginia.
Democrts and Republicans, have united
in an effort TO carry out the rigid law Of
the state against the use of money in
elections. This law forbids, under heavy
penalties, any candidate from hiring
men TO work at the polls; from paving
the expenses of delegates 70 conventions;
from hiring any one to solicit votes, and,
in short. from using money in any way
except to pay the expenses Of public
speakers and the circulation of literature.
About the only legitimate field left them
at election times is TO set EN- up for the
bows.
