TWO SOUTHERN SPEAKERS.

Opposite Views Expressed BY Two
Famous Sons of tho "New South"
Henry w. Grady, on the last occasion
that he spoke in public-at the Boston
Impoverished without palliation or
equivocation the position o: the South
ern Bourbon whites on the race problem.
Said he:
1--WE of the white race Of the South regard
the political subiugation Of the negro as essen
tial to white supremacy, and no matter what
constitutional right he possesses when in a ma
jorty, he shall not vote unless he votes with tho
superior race.
Which is to say, that though the con-
stitution of the United States makes no
account Of an American-born citizens
color or race, though it prohibits any
restriction upon the franchise based on
race, color, or previous condition, the
Bourbons Of the South are determined
that the white race alone shall be al
lowed unrestricted suffrage.
The other day another Southern man
spoke also in Boston. He is an old
soldier from Arkansas, Southern-born
citizen, man whose brother lies in q
bloody grave, murdered by Bourbon
assassin because he was Republican
Powell Clayton. He may not possess the
art of tickling the ear to the degree
that Grady did, but his words have the
ring Of truth, OF honesty, and breathe
the spirit Of progress, Of civilization, Of
enlightenment He said:
"why should not the negro be admitted to
equal citizenship with all. He Is loyal; in
times Of war Q gallant soldier, docile and sub
a.
1t is true, but through no fault Of his own, but
ready learner"
Were the dead Grady hero to answer
Powell Clayton's pregnant queries his
reply would voice the sentiment Of
Southern Bourbonism: because he is
a Niger he should not be citizen"
But this Is not the answer Of the consti-
tuition, not the answer of civilization,
not the answer Of any man who has his
face toward the sunrise. The true an
swer is: 1.-THE negro is man and his
rights are sacred, whatever be the color
of his skin, whatever the blood in his
veins"
Powell Clayton is . representative Of
the ideas which must dominate the
South before the race problem can be
solved. That problem is the most i'm
portant ever before the American people
more important even than the slavery
question, for that involved but tho
destiny of 8, 200, 900 American-born per
sons, while this involves the manhood,
the progress of 8. 900. 000-who, though
free, are held down, prescribed, ont
ragged and despised in the States of their
birth, where their underpaid toll on
riches the men who deny them the
rights guaranteed by the Federal con-
stitution. (O) Blade.

THE RULES WORK WELL


Great Value Of the Republican Code -
Expeditin4 Business.
The House Of Representatives Is now
working under the new rules, and &C
cording to all reports Congressman are
finding out the great value of the new
code in expediting business. More work
can now be done in an hour or two than
it was possible under the old rules to
finish in a week. When the committee
reports are called up it is possible now
to 60 straight to result and yet no
right to discuss or to propose amend
ments is infringed in the slightest de-
gree.
For example, the report Of the House
judiciary committee on the bill to divide
North Dakota into four judicial dis
tricts, fixing the places for holding
court, was called up the other day and
promptly disposed of. The bill had
been carefully worked out in the judic-
larry committees both Of the House and
Senate, and the report supplied all sub
stantial information, as well as reduced
the matter to its essential points.
Nevertheless, small minority of the
House. including some Republicans as
we'll as Democrats, undertook to make
factious opposition. Bill Springer began
the tactics Of frivolous and exasperas-
ing opposition which are so characters
tic of his methods. Under the old rules
it would have taken at least q week to
come to final action on the bill, and ii
would indeed have been possible for the
puny minority, led by Bill Springer, to
defeat such action.
But under the business-like provis-
ions o. the new rules the discretionary
minority was compelled to put their OBJ
iections into actionable form and sub
NIT to prompt action. The result was
that the House made short work Of the
opposition, perfected the bill and in
due time, in the session of the same
day, passed it.
This is probably fair illustration Of
the practical working of the new code of
rules. In this case there was no ques-
ton between the political parties. The
question before the House was purely
question of business, The new rules
simply enabled the House to transact
business.
The fact that purely dilatory methods
are cut off by the new rules is by itself
powerful influence in facilitating BUSH
ness without regard to actual enforce
ment of the rules. 1t is so because
cranks, disturbers and factious minori-
ties, knowing that dilatory motion
will not avail, are forced to put the
grounds of opposition upon their merits.
They are forced to meet the issue, to
submit their case, to show their hands
The new rules, in short, tend to strip
matters to the nakedness of truth. This
by itself is an invaluable gain. Where
faulty legislation is proposed the show
ing of the fault will be far more likely,
under these circumstances, to secure its
correction, and if not so then to place
the responsibility precisely and visibly
where it belongs.
Before the session of Congress is half
over the wisdom and efficacy of the
new rules will be recognized not only
by the country generally, but even by
the Democrats who fought them so Bit
terly.-Sioux CITY Qa) Journal.

HORTICULTURAL HINTS.

WHEN the grapes are full ripe and the
weather is clear and dry is the time to
pick grapes.
Do NOT forget to protect the young
trees from mice and rabbits. Bank up
about them; smear with blood or use
other protection.
EVERY now and then we find an old
variety under new name. The man
who changes the name of a variety and
sells 1t as something new ought to be
roaded to the penitenaary.
SPEAKING of hardy varieties, they do
not amount to pinch OF snuff. That
is we mean to say that it Is the very
last quality that should be inquired
for We want varieties that are pro-
life, and of good quality. We can pro-
tect them easily enough.
AT the present day, says an exchange,
few growers are willing to give winter
protection, and hence the alleged need
OF hardy varieties. Well, we have hardy
varieties enough. There are the wild
varieties of fruits. They are all hardy
enough; and II a man is too lazy to
give good variety protection, he had
better fall back on the wild kinds. r

A scrub Cow.

1t may be always said that the ncrnb
COW is such by reason of its scrub owner
The cow always does as it is done by.
In my neighborhood the scrub COW
reigns supreme. 1t is born and reared
scrub and is fed on scrub; that is. on
browse summer and winter, and never
learns the smell of hay or the taste of
meal. Consequently it is bred to a
scrub bull and rears scrub calf, and
gives gallon of milk day at the best,
for two or three months after which a
pint tin cup holds all the milk. The
poor calf gets half the milk for a month,
when it is turned into the woods, and
when a year old is perhaps little
smaller than it was eleven months be-
fore. Possibly, as scrubs, the common
cattle OF my present locality can scarce
ly be beaten. But as proof of my
statement on the first line l give this
record of scrub cow which have had
five years and which have regenerated
during that time into very fair milker.
At first, at three years old, she gave me,
three months after calying and on the
best feeding, six quarts of milk per day.
BY good feeding on clover pasture,
clover hay and corn me al, as much as
she can use profitably, she has come up
in The five years to her sixth calf, and
her udder has gradually increased in size
until it is now forty-two inches around
at its upper part, and with her fifth
heifer calf, all of which i have reared,
her yield is eighteen quarts of milk
daily, from which is made eleven pounds
of butter in week. One scrub heifer
with her first calf, and two years old. is
milking fourteen quarts a day.-Ameri-

might be saved. / do not shuck the

labor and the waste of fodder, as
1t needs less handling, besides not be-
ing exposed to the weather Cut corn
is generally fed in such sloyenly man
ner that much of its value Is lost. It
should be fed in racks made for the
purpose, then the fodder is kept clean
and the stock.oan eat it without wasting.

carefully, all the better. The stalks
that the stock leaves make better
