Gentlemen OF the South, the North is
no more craven-heartcd now than in 1861.
If you can not be convinced that manli-
ness is still TO be found north as well as
south of Mason and DiXon's line, you may
make as great an error as you made
then.
Many il not most Northern men will
agree with you that reconstruction laws
were not all wisely enacted. All vii!

or white, is great social evil. But that
is not the question now.

TO do right TO him. You still have is
in your power 10 bar out from the ballot
all citizens who can not read and write,
as Massachusetts does. Neither the
fourteenth nor fifteenth amendment
prevents such State action. which would
cover Federal as well as State elections.
But, il you werc in our place, and
your honor were pledged, as ours is, To
the prevention Of abridgment of suffrage

you be deferred by threats OF violence or
boycotting from redeemng that pledge?
No, we know your manlincss too well

THE PRESIDENT BOUGHT HIS
COTTAGE.
Refusing To Accept tho Cape May House
Present, lie Paid $4,000.

A Washington special To the New York
Press gives the following facts about the
Presidents Cape May cottage: "Presi-
dent Harrison has been the victim Of
most Virulent attacks since 10 became
known that il had been decided that he
and his family would spend portion Of
the hot months at Cape May Point. Mrs.
Harrison, too, has been subjected TO the
tiercest criticisms, because, as alleged,
she accepted the little villa as gift
from admiring friends. True IL is that
the President and the mistress OF the
White House were urged by the would
be donors to take the cottage without
money and without price. The Presi-
dent declined TO receive IL as a gratuity,
but gave his check for 500 SO soon as
he ascertained that Mrs. Harrison aid
the family were pleased with il as a
place Of summer residence. The Presi-
dents attention was first called to the
existence OF the cottage when the repre-
sentatives Of those who had prepared IL
visited the White House just after IL had
been made ready for occupancy. They
brought with them the key and the deed
made in the name of Mrs. Harrison.
They unfolded their plans TO the Presi-
dent in the presence Of Mrs. Harrison.
Both the President and Mrs. Harrison
could not but feel under many obliga-
tions for the generosity with which they
had been treated, and so expressed them
selves. Mrs. Harrison and the family
occupied the cottage for a few days be-
fore the President could go down. They
were pleased with it and enjoyed It. 1t
is neither elaborate nor costly, but sim
pie and to their taste. The President
decided to retain it. He ascertained
what had been expended upon it and
drew his check for that amount, which,
as has been stated, is $4,000. 1t is char
acteristic of the President that, despite
the offensive publications that have been
made, the fact that the cottage had been
paid for before he made his first visit to
Cape May Point has just reached the

The Sectional southern Democracy.

1t is in the South that sectional poll
tics flourishes. 1t is the South that has
been solidified and converted into a
political province of the Democratic
party, and il is the South that lives upon
the past and knows least of the present.
and is, in business sense, most care
less about the future. IL would be es-
teemed by the Southern politicians
prvation to have sectional politics
abolished. They never have compre-
hended how they could have been so far
out of the world in 1883 that the Repub-
leans regancd the possession of the
country upon simple national business
issues. Why, if this thing goes on theii
occupation is gone, and as it is their i'm.
portance is vanishing. Brooklyn Stand,

in trimming to give the exterior pleas
ing contrast of color and shading. Corn
in various forms, sheaf wheat and oats,
and other farm products will enter large

hibit is designed primarily 10 show the
resources and products of VIII, IroquoiS,
Kankakec, VermilliOn, Livingston, Grun-
dy and Ford counties in Illinois, and OF
Lake, Newton, Benton, Warren and
Fountain counties in Indiana. These
counties are being organized by town
ships TO secure proper representation
of the products of their farms, factories,
forests, mines, etc, together with the
requirements of their people in the way
Of music, art, athletics, and manual
training.
Among some of the novel features will
be an immense aquarium containing, as
far as possible, every species Of fish ma
tive TO the kankakee, Iroquois and
Wabash Rivers; collections of the geo.
logical, botanical, ornithological and 20
illogical features Of the district; a collec-
tion of Indian and prehistoric relics,
owned and mostly collected within the
district. The latter feature promises TO
be unusually interesting, as several large
collections have already been secured,
including tho noted mound-builders' col
lection, belonging 10 II. VI. Keyser OF
this city, embracing the relics obtained
from over 600 mounds in the Upper Kan
kakeo Valley.
Tho reunion OF the survivors OF the
Scventy-sixth Regiment, Illinois Infantry,
will take place Oct. and 3, the second

will be followed by band tournament,

test OF the church choirs of the district,
for which tho association offers liberal
prizes; also of male quartettes, solo sing
ers, etc.
One room in the palace will be set
apart for drawings and models illustrate
ing the methods of constructing and
operating manufacturing plants Of the
class that seek locations in the smaller
cities and towns. Lectures and such
other information as can be procured will
be given in this room, on methods OF Sc
curing manufacturing establishments,
and the experience Of various cities and
towns will be detailed in the hope of in
citing the people of the district to
stronger efforts in the way Of building
up and increasing their manufacturing
industries.
The hay palace will be the first palace
exposition east Of the Mississippi River,

people. The project of the exposition
was conceived by Charles ). McNichols,
Secretary of the Association, after a
visit TO Creston, Iowa, where the success
of tho Blue Grass Palace has almost
turned the heads of the Crestonites.
