Walsall is one OF the few seats that have
never before been contested Oh the home rule
plank. The fight was an unusually bitter and
exciting one. The constituency has been I'M
interruptedly liberal since 1871. Sir Charles
Forster. the late popular member, had sat
since 1852 Both sides in the contest just
closed were prepared with good candidates,
and the party organs readily admitted that it
was a fair fight. 7. d. Sullivan took up his

unprecedented yesterday. and large force OF
police was in readiness, but the polling Or
Derby The day being general holiday, the
poll largely exceeded that of 1855. In that year
the liberal majority was 1877; therefore,
though they retain the seat, the liberals have

SENATOR sTANFORD's SCHEME.
A schene for Wholesale Colored Coloniza
ton in California.

Senator Leland Stanford is giving aid and
encouragement to thousands of southern
negroes who are establishing large colonies in
California. 1t is expected that SO, 900 negroes
Will become residents of the state within the
next twelve months. In view Of these facts the
politicians are alarmed. as the colonists arc
quite likely to bewilder the shrewdest political
manager on the coast. The Rev. K. c. o. Ben
jamin, prominent and wealthy colored man
OF San Francisco. is at the head Of the move
ment. In a recent interview he said:
Our object il bringing the negroes to Cali
fornia is to supplant the Chinese. The celes-
tiais are not citizens or voters and the coored
people are both We have already signed con-
tracts In our possession which will guarantee
employment to all the people We bring here.
We have secured $4,000 acres of excellent land
situated In Fresno and Shasta counties and all
OF 1t may be Irrigated. This will provide
homes for an immense number of colonists.
Our people are now arriving from the southern
states at the rate of five families a week. Within
the next twelve months l expect thatl will have
situated in California 5000 families. See how
rapidly it will increase the population. Forty
Thousand more Industrious people.
1t has beel arranged continued the enter
prising Young cOionist, that the people will
be given employment when they get here. and
they will be provided with small tracts of land
which they will be given from five to eight
years time to pay for. and portion of the
payments can be made by working for the own
ers. They will raise vines and fruit trees prin-
cipally. The managers of the Southern Pacific
railroad have agreed to give us the very lowest
rates on which to travel, avoiding, of course,
the violation of any of the interstate COM
merce laws. Senator Leland Stanford is favor
ably impressed with our scheme, and has lent
us much encouragement. The colonIsts will
come principally from Alrbama, Texas and
North and South Carolina"
Mr.. benjamin leaves San Francisco for the
south In few days to arrange to send out a

to pay their way.

WHAT SUPERINTENDENT OWEN SAYS
No Friction With Secretary Foster Over tn
Neidringhaus Case.

Gen. Owen. the superintendent of immigra-
ton, was in Philadelphia the other day
and was interviewed relative to the Neid-
ringhaus decision. He said there was no
friction in the department. The assistant
secretary and himself took one view, but az
their position was in advance of
the rules of the department, the Secretary very
justly took another position. The law govern
ing the question of the importation of labor
under contract permits the landing of skilled
laborers. providing that it is proved that their
importation here is for the purpose Of establish
ing new industry. Mr.. Neidrinshaus made an
effort to secure skilled tin-plate workers in this
country, but failed. He then asked if he
could import skilled workmen. The assistant
secretary and Gen. Owen took the ground that
as the skilled workmen were not to be had
here he could import them, and in this they ran
counter to the rules of the department,
anticipating a fact. According to the rule. Mr.
Neidringhaus will have to import the men
under the clause allowing them to enter to es-
tablish Il new industry. Then the question will
come up as to whether they are needed for the
industry and the department will render de-
cisiOn on the evidence induced.

COLORED LABOR.
Some Interesting Facts Gathered From
Southern Employers.

The Chattanooga Trddesmda will publish in
its issue of August Is very complete and
thoroughly reliable resume of the status of
negro labor in the south. The article is the
result Of facts and statements obtained from
about two hundred labor employers and every
southern state is represented. These employers
give work to nearly $500 colored persons The
highest wages reported as paid to skilled
negro worker are 80 per day, lowest s1.lO, and
average wages S1.75, and 97S skilled negro
laborers are reported under employment
The highest wages reported as paid to the 6 SOL
unskilled negro laborcrs was so per day. the
lowest 60 cents. and the average 81. 10 per day.
Being asked if colored labor is as good as
white. twenty-seyen employers of 1873 colored
laborers say they see no difference. thirty-five
hiring AL prefer white labor and forty mine
employing 3,2l4 prefer them to white labor.
The question, is the negro increasing in
efficiency laborer?' was answered in the
affirmative by sixty-seven employers of 2,il3
in the negative by forty-thrcc who employ
2,279 and fifteen who give work to / 1863 say
they see no change. Another question was:
do you intend to continue the employment of
colored labor" and 1903 employing $50 answer
yes" two each employing one say mo and
sixteen hiring All are in doubt.
The most interesting part Of the article re-
lates to the effect which education has had on
the Younger generation OF the coiored race as
to their efficiency as laborers. and also as TO
what effect education has had on the race gen.
orally as laboring men. To these questions 1879
replies were received and every southern state
is represented. Thirty employers. having 8. $3.50
colored workmen, say the education the
younger generation has received has been ben
efcial to them laborers. and that education
has been of aid to the laborers of the race in
general; thirteen, employing $780, are in doubt
on the subject. and ninety-six, who employ
), s2O. say that such education as the younger
of the colored race have received has not been
of benefit to them as laborers, and that gen.
orally speaking, it detracts from negro q efi-
cheney as Il laborer to educate him.

Gov. Page of Vermont has issued a prOclama-
ton for special session of the legislature to
convene Tuesday. August &c. The first cause
for calling it is to take action in regard to di-
rect tax money in the state. Gov. Page says
there appears to be strong public sentiment
calling for further legislation upon the subject
of the Columbian exposition and gives the
question prominence in the call. Five thou
sand dollars only was appropriated last fall,
but this sum will undoubtedly be handsomely
increased by appropriation when the legisla-
ture convenes. 1t is now believed that Gov.
Page will make known his choice of a successor
to Senator Edmunds before the extra session
meets. As far as can be ascertained the state
is substantially unit in support OF Secretary
Proctor for the position.

This contest is to determine which faction

Dubs followers to worship in the church.
The late Judge Wilson granted the Esherites
