THE NEGRO VOTE.

The detection of large numbers of
negro voters in Pennsylvania who have
gone over to the Democrats, has
worried and vexed the Republicans
greatly. Party organs complain
loudly of the desertion OF their allies
in the heat of battle, and talk about
faithlessness, ingratitude, treason and
the like, as though the Republican
party had given every negro in the
land 'forty acres and a mule" and
shared equally with him the spoils of
Office.
The Globe-Democrat, accepting the
situation as unavoidable, and whistling
to keep its courage up, muses. over the
affair in an unusual strain. Race di-
visions in politics, it finds, are always
harmful. The negro vote has harmed
more than it has helped the Republi-
can party. 1t solidifes, and therefore
strengthens instead OF weakening the,
opposition. For these and other
reasons the CD. refuses to shed any
tears over the detection. This is all
very amusing in view of the remarka-
bly, lively interest which the admins
tration and many Republican leaders
took in the political welfare OF the
negro last winter when the force bill
was under consideration. True
enough, the CD. opposed that in
famous measure, but not because it
was Indifferent to the negro vote, but
because it feared the conservative ele-
ments in the North would not
support the mailed hand policy of Har-
rison and Hoar. Except in a few North
ern states where the negro vote consti-
tuted the balance of power, the Repub-
licans had about ceased to reap any adj
vantage whatever from it. Ever since
reconstruction ended in 1876 and 1877,
it had served as the occasion every four
years for wild and frantic waving of
the bloody shirt, whereby the Northern
heart was fired to the desired pitch of
patriotism and political fervor. But
even for that laudable purpose it had
ceased to be useful. A last and desper-
ate effort to utilize the negro vote by
the aid of the military met with AN
ignomlnious failure last winter. That
settled the question of its availability
as q political factor in the South. Re-
publican leaders and organs began at
once to lose interest in it. ingalls, said
it was mistake to have given political
enfranchisement to the negro. Our st.
Louis contemporary now finds that the
negro vote has been a source of harm
to the G. o. p. OF course these are all
afterthoughts that prove nothing, but
vindicate the wisdom of Esop's fable
about the fox and grapes. In the
Northern states the negroes refuse any
longer to hew and draw for party
that does nothing but slobber over
them once every four years, and then
dismisses them from memory. They
are turning their backs on the Gissem-
bling and mock philanthropists of the
'old partee," and adopting an indie
pendent course in politics. When the
negroes go back on Republicanism,
what should all white men do, who are
not enriched by the tariff or supported
by pensions?

ing Effective Work in Southern Texas.
Special to the Gazette.
HoUsToN, Tex, Oct. 12.-The first en-
thusiastic impetus to the Worlds fair work
in South Texas was given the movement in
this city tonight in the nature of Il
mammoth Worlds fair masS-meet-
ing, held at the large city hall.
where able and enthusiastic speeches We're
delivered by Thomas J. Hurley, president.
and D. D. Bryan, secretary of the Texas
Worlds fair association, the two chief
officers of the state organization. both of
whom are doing excellent and efficient
work in arousing an interest throughout
Texas in Worlds far work. President Hur-
ley and Secretary Bryan are now engaged
in patriotic canvass of Southern Texas
and some very good results are expected as
4 reward of their present campaign in this
section. Col Hurley has wonderful fund
of information regarding the proposed mag
nitudc of the grand fair, and he details 1T
in most interesting way. The assess
ment against this city for the
Worlds fair fund is about $1,000,
and from the enthusiasm now
aroused the local committee anticipate no
trouble in raising this amount. Houston is
the native city OF both Secretary Dickinson
of the national and Secretary Bryan of the
state board of Worlds fair managers.

Horner's Banking BilI-No. n.
Mr.. EDITOR: l have claimed that
the income of this proposed bank,
although sufficient to pay our ma.
tional debt, it would be only a
small part of the blessings that
would be conveyed upon the peo-
pie and the Kingdom directly and
indirectly by the bank.
l will illustrate. Money being
the life of business, to buy, to en-
ploy and to pay, in fact the tool
which commands all tools by which
wealth is created and comforts en-.
joyed, etc.
If our bank was endowed with
the powers that this bill provides
for it, money would always be OBJ.
tainable upon security in either
small or large amounts and at q
rate of interest the industries could
afford to pay. More money would
be put in circulation, more improve
ments made, more business done
and wealth more rapidly increased
with money always obtainable at
four per cent. than if double that
rate had to be paid for its use. That
is, man compelled to pay eight or
ten per cent. for money to assist
in his business could use double
the sum at four per cent, and so in
crease his business ct the same cost
for the Use of the tool to do it with.
And so by a more abundant circu-
lation of money, more business
could be done, more laborcrs en-
ployed, more improvements made,
and more taxable wealth produced
by the people. Thus assisting the
government as we'll as themselves.
If the government had this bank
to draw from the same security
that would draw money from
Europe at six per cent would
secure just as good money from
the "Bank of Hawaii at four per
cent without the costly assistance
