HOW TO MAKE MONEY.

without economy no man
succeeds even if he should be
placed in circumstances where
there are large gains. His
gains would not be lasting,
for he would not be prepared
to withstand reverses which
are likely to come to any
one. A man must be ready
for setbacks. | see striking
Illustrations in Wall street OF
the lack of foresight in men.
Great displaysa are made, and
when the course OF specula-
tion changes to an adverse
direction the money that is
needed to tide the specula-
tors over, the trouble has
been dissipated. It's the care
ful, prudent way that makes
a man master of the situa-
tion-the controller instead
of the follower. This is true
not only in business, but al
so in politics, religion and
every occupation in life.
A man should make it a
point to save. What percen-
tage OF his salary or income
he should put aside il is diff
cult to say. That should be
governed by circumstances.
Mems surroundings are differ

EWARTON THE NEGRO.

Congressman Ewart, of
the 9th. N. G. district, made
a speech in the House of Rep
resentatives, the other day
against the Federal election
bill and spoke as follows on
the negro question. Mr.. Ew-
art is a staunch republican.
1t is getting more and more
difficult every year for the re-
publican party to control
him. Thousands, as | have
stated openly, vote the dem
ocratic ticket. Thousands do
no not manifest interest en-
ough in an election to 90 to
the polls. He is growing
skeptical about certain pledg
es and promises which have
been made and broken by the
political organization to
which for SO many years he
has shown his loyalty. Wide
spread dissatisfaction exists
among the colored voters Of
the South to-doy. Therenev-
er was a proposition as dear
to the negro heart as the
Blair educational bill. The
negro knows the power OF ed
ucation. He looked eagerly
to the great Republican par
ty to redeem in honor and
good fnith the pledge it had
made in it's platform at Chi
cago to extend national aid

tenn OF the country.

ly looked forward to the spec
dy redemption of the party's
pledge.
Warned by the treatment
given by Carlisle in the Fifti-
eth Congress, Southern repub
licans by their votes placed
in the chair a Speaker, for
whom the assurance was pos
itively given that there would
be no such arbitrary and des-
potic treatment of the meas
ure as had been given to it
by Speaker Carlisle in the
Fiftieth Congress. But the
pledge SO solemnly made in
the Chicago platform, has
been wantonly and cruelty
falsified. A republican Sen
ate has deliberately killed the
educational bill. 1t was a
blow that went straight to
the negro heart, and will not
soon be forgotten norforgiv-
en-. 1t was as cowardly an
abandonment ofprinciples dis
a great party was ever gull
ty of! The failure to pass
that bill has caused wide dis
satisfaction among the color
ed voters of the South.
Speaking formy own State,
| can safely say that if th.' e.
lection was to take place to-
morrow not three-tenths of
the colored voters in the
State would be cast for the
nominee of the republican
party.
AS to his political rights,
speaking for my own State,
| unhesitatingly assert that
no republican in the State,
black or white, is prevented
from casting his vote. The
elections are absolutely fair.
[Applause.] Here and there,
as is the case in perhaps any
State in the Union, local re-
turning boards assume to
throw out certain precincts
for alleged irregularities, and
in that way often wrongs are
done. Representatives from
other States can speak for
their own sections; | only
speak positively for my own.
1t has been alleged thatgrave
frauds were perpetrated in
the Second district, and yet
it is a fact that the United
States courts in that district
have just adjourned without
finding a single bill Of indict-
ment. 1t is proper that |
should state that both the
Judge and district attorney
are republicans. In other
States in the South the ne
gro votes are suppressed un-
der the forms of law; and in
other sections still there is
violence and stealing OF bal

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
Consideration of the River and Harbor
Bill Begun.

Bill Begun.
WASHINGTON, May 22.--In the house,
today, the committee on census reported
bill amending the census act to pre-
scribe penalty upon any supervisor or
enumerator who shall receive, or any
person who shall pay, any fee OF other
consideration in addition to the compen-
sation of such service as enumerator.
Passed.
Conferences were ordered on the army
appropriation bill and the military acad-
emy appropriation bill.
The house then went into committee
of the whole on the river and harbor bill.
Henderson, of Illinois, chairman of the
committee on rivers and harbors, ex-
planned the provisions of the bill, saying
that it appropriated 500, ,932 900, based
upon estimates aggregating $50 800, 900.
He believed that there was no money
that went out of the treasury that was
so much in the interest of the people as
the money expended in the improvement
of rivers and harbors.
Blanchard of Louisiana, spoke in favor
of the river and harbor bill, contending
that it did more to solve the problem
of cheap transportation than all the in
terstate commerce bills that could be
passed. The fact that great and dis
astrous flood recently occurred in the
lower Mississippi valley, was sufficient
excuse, if one was needed, for calling the
attention of the house to the require
ments of that stream. 1t was time con-
gress should be waking up to the idea
that something should be done to har-
ness the waters of the Mississippi. That
river was too great national feature to
be handled by state or an aggregation
of states. The time had come when
congress should appropriate money,
not only for improving. the
navigation of the river, but for the
purpose of preventing floods. The late
flood had not demonstrated that the
levee system was failure, but that an
adequate system of levees would pre-
vent floods, and the piecemeal system
which the impoverished states of the
south were able to carry on, was not
sufficient to prevent inundation.
Catchings, of Mississippi, spoke in
the same vein.
Kerr, of Iowa, attacked the bill, which
was defended by Grosvenor, of Ohio.
After the committee rose, Quinn, of
New York, introduced bill reducing to
one cent an ounce the postage on drop
letters in cities of 1OU, 900 inhabitants or
over.
Adjourned.
