sisted that something should be

the fault upon the financial system

Colonel Polk suggested was: Re

NEGRO INDEPENDENCE.
4 Movement witch May he Dtsas
trous 10 the Republicans.

The negro movement towards
political independence is showing
signs Of great vitality. A North
Carolina negro, who is the editor
OF the Gazette, tho negro organ OF
that State, speaks OF the Republi'
can party in terms which indicate
clear understanding of the meth.
DDS by which that party has here
tofore held the negro vote. "Since
1872" says he, 'the negro has cub
mitted to his own humiliation,
and consented time and again TO
elevation of obscure white uen,
because il was thought that they
would bring n few votes to he
Republican party. We have slb.
mitted TO this so long that the
bosses thought they could contn.
ne in this old way of promising
much and performing nothing AID
yet hold the negro vote. But n
this they will certainly be disa.
pointed. The opposition to the
administration is general among
the negroes all over the county,
and the reason why there is net
an outbreak in other States as
here is that the leaders elsewhee
yet hope 10 receive some noiic.
The carpet.bag ring will try 10
control the Republican parry
machinery in this State, but will
be left in the lurch.
"The negroes have suffered hr

THE latest Republican scheme
to squander the peoples money 10
TO build a postoiiice In every town
where the gross receipts of the
office amount to $1,000 per anuum.
This measure would scatter public
buildings all over the country, at
a total cost of 100000 or more.
II is q scheme to purchase the
votes of the working men employ.
ed in the building trades by a
lavish expenditure of public funds.
THE removal of the tariff from
hides was a Democratic measure.
The Republicans who voted for II
did so only for the selfish purpose
of relieving New England from
taxation while insisting that the
rest OF the country should con.
time to pay high taxes. But 1t is
not u question of how there came
to be free trade in hides. The
only question is of what the Re.
publican party will do about it. IL
untaxed hides are a good thing, an
plough is just as good a
thing.
