"niggers" for having the best end of II
legislation especially intended to de-
grade and Cypress them.

During the past few months the pos
tai receipts at Chicago have shown a
phenomenal increase, and officials at
the postoifice department say they will
not be surprised if the Chicago gross
postal receipts shall exceed those OF
New York during the exposition and
for few months before it opens. AL
ready the postmaster of that city has
made requisition for an increased allow
ance for clerks to handle the business
of his office, and it is expected that it
will become necessary TO ask Congress
to make special appropriation in
order that the postal facilities OF Chica-
go may keep pace with the business.
This increase was locked for about next
year and its consequent earlier arrival
has caused surprise, but the department
officials say they intend to do all in
their power to see that the money is
not lacking to give the Worlds Fair
City model postal service.

"While she was seated at the table talk

behind her stealthily and kissed her full

a dead faint and when she was brought

medical attendance could arrive. The

1t looks as though the people of
Louisiana and Texas, through their re-
spective legislatures, had overreached
themselves in their efforts to legislate
themselves into social position far
above that occupied by the ''inferior"
race, and the kicking which comes
from those states about the 'inconven-
fences" they are compelled to suffer by
legislation is ludicious in the extreme.
1t will be remembered that both of
those states celebrated the victory
gained in favor of separate cars for each
race in the supreme court of the United
States by decision which will one day
rank with that i'm the bred Scott case,
by requiring all railroads to provide
separate cars of equal quality and COM
fort for the accommodation of each race,
or to divide each car into compartments
for the benefit of each race. 1t was
provided that each compartment should
be plainly marked, and that no colored
person should be permitted to ride in a
white car, and no white person in a
colored car or compartment. The result
is that no matter how the white cars or
compartments may be crowded. the
passengers can not go into the apart
ments for colored people as long as
there is single colored person in them.
As there are ordinarily many more white
than colored travellers, the result is
that one or two colored people often
have half or the whole of good car to
themselves while every seat is doubly
laden and men are even standing in the
aisles of the compartments cussing the

The action of the Grand Army of the
Republic, in its National Encampment
at Detroit, in refusing to recognize the
"color line" by creating separate de-
partments for the two races, was all
the more noticeable from the two facts
first, because the retiring Commander
in-chiefhad recognized and recommend
ed such policy; and, second, because
the sentiment against it was so earnest
and unanimous that the dissidents did
not dare demand division and put
themselves on record as favoring the
policy. 1t was square appeal to the
sentiment of iustic, and the answer of
the veterans of the Grand Army was
that race or color should exclude no
man who served the Republic in her
hour of need. And all good men and
true will rise up and applaud these
men for the chivalrous attitude they
have thus assumed.
