CANADAY SAFE.
A NORTH CAROLINA NEGRO
SOLVES THE NEGRO
PROBLEM.

Especial Cor. Of STATE CHRONICLE
WASHINGTON. D. c. March 30 Senator
Ransom has recovered from his recent
attack Of the grip, and is at his seat
again. i.
The rumored opposition to Colonel
Canaday has entirely subsidized. The
rumor was, that Senator Quay wanted
to make one of his friends sergeant at
arms of the Senate, and Col. Canaday's
enemies used it for all it was worth, but
Senator Ransom, who was largely in
strumental In securing the place for a
North Carolinian, has been influential
enough to keep North Carolinian in.
No one bat Republican could hold the
position, and North Carolina is fortu-
nate IN having Senator whose ability,
suavity and popularity can determine
matter of this sort in favor Of fellow
citizen, IN spite Of broad and irreconcila
bic political differences. Every man in the
State would prefer that the salary of the
seargeant-at arms should be spent among
our own people, and this is what Gen
eral Ransom's influence and energy has
accomplished in this as in a thousand
other instances. Acts Of his SINH
lar to this are seldom noised abroad, and
ne does not always get the credit for
them which he deserves: but for all this,
he never relaxes an effort when there is
a possible chance to serve his constit-
uentS.
Another solution to the negro problem
has been offered hy q colored North Car
o!laa Republican. He writes to the Post
! as follows:
