MODEST REQUESTS.

The negro editors who have Just been
holding convention are not at all modest
They request that colored man be APP
pointed to the Worlds fair commission. and
that one of the nine court Of appeals
judges soon to be named, shall be gentle
man of sablehue. 1t is unprecedented that
the colored journalists have mistaken their
vocation, and we doubt that they will ever
become bright and shining lights in the
profession. Modesty IS a characteristic of
the white editor and of the editor who is
white. They never ask for anything in the
way of office, and would die rather than
appeal to the President for places of trust
and emolumenJ. If editors ever get fat
offices it is because of their modesty. the ap-
pointing power desiring to reward virtue.
And while the pale-faced editor would
scorn to ask for an Office for himself he
would be equally reluctant to solicit place
for anybody else.
But seriously, how ridiculous are these
demands by the colored editors. They
show how little conception of the proprie-
ties the brightest of the negroes have, as
Stunning that the editors are the brightest
Of their race. We don't believe there is a
man on the Worlds fair commission who
would retain his place twenty-four hours
II negro were appointed to the board
and that particular appellate court which
had negro for judge would get mighty
little business which could be taken else
where.
Our friends, the black men, make the
mistake Of assuming that because the laws
have been so generous to them as to confer
upon them equal political rights with the
whites, they are equal to the whites in
other respects. We say this assumption is
mistake and as long as the negroes shall
be guilty of it they will suffer disappoint-
ment and will believe that the whites are
unjust to them. Nature has raised bar
rler between the races which resolutions
declarations and statutory enactments
without end cannot overcome. The blacK
is the inferior race, has always been the in
ferior and always will be the inferior: it
may aspire to equality, but will never get
there unless nature should conclude to re-
verse things and, diluting the gray matter
in the white mans head and thickeninp
that in the black mans cause the su-
perlor race to occupy the secondary
position. We don't believe the time will
ever come when the whites will admit that
the negroes are their equals and will re.
ceive the latter on terms of equality. and
the sooner the blacks cease their efforts to
force themselves into places where they

CALIFORNIA; NEW SENATOR.

We don't know much about Mr. CHARLES
n. FELTON,, the gentleman who has just
been chosen United States Senator from
California, TO succeed the late GEORGE
HEARST. He has been somewhat promi-
nent in state politics, and has been mem
Der of the legislature. He goes into the of
fee under cloud, and do what he may he
will be unable to turn aside the suspicion
that he is another mans man. He will 90
to Washington as the recognized agent of
NJ. H. De YOU'VE, to whom he owes his
election, and people Will expect him to Jump
as De GoUNG pulls the strings. There is
also strong hint of bribery in the cleo
ton, though FELTON, asserts under oath
that he neither spent dollar to secure the
Office nor authorized any one else to spend
dollar in his behalf. We believe it would
have been better for the west if Judge
EsTEE had been chosen, but the best candi
dates seldom 'get there" and perhaps in
this instance the successful man will turn
out to be an agreeable disappointment. His
term will expire on March 4, 1893.

DANGEROUS GROUND.

A telegram in Fridays issue of THE
HERALD said that 1000 Italians working on
railroad in West Virginia were drilling,
under orders received from Chicago, and
that they were armed. In this mornings
paper is a dispatch which says the New
Orleans Malta are sending threatening let
tiers to persons who express disapproval of
their methods.
If the Italians want to stay in this coun-
try, they will do well not to assume a
threatening attitude, and will do better not
to continue their plottings to commit muir
der and other crimes. The American peo-
pie are patient and long-suffering. They
have many times proven the possession of
this virtue. Indeed, they are demonstrat-
ing it all the time in their liberation of the
Anarchists, who meet frequently and
openly denounce the advocates of law and
order; in permitting the landing
on our shores of the dregs of
all Europe-the paupers, the criminals and
the scoundrels who plot against the society
on which they prey; in the fact that the dirs
ty and criminal Italians themselves herd in
our large cities by the thousand and are
practically unmolested. But patient and
generous as they are and broad as is their
love for mankind, there is a limit to the
American peoples endurance of evils and
evil doors, and when that limit has been
reached they become most terribly earnest,
determined and effective in their curative
efforts. The Italians of New Orleans have
just had an unmistakable demonstration OF
the fact that the patience of Americans can
be pressed beyond the limit of endurance.
aud if Italians in West Virginia. New
York or Chicago are not convinced by
that demonstration they can soon
obtain another. It would require, in the
present temper of the people, very little
drilling and very few threatening letters tc
so embitter the masses against King Hum.
BERT's subjects that an Italian would be less
safe in the United States than was China
man in San Francisco in the triumphant
days of DENIS kEARNEY.
1t is not time for the Italians to rush to
the front, and especially it is not time for
them to threaten retaliation by assassina
ton. The occasion is one when they should
keep to the rear and by modesty of deport
ment and careful observance Of the laws
endeavor to pacify the American people,
who are fast drifting into the way of think
ing that the country would improve il the
gates Of all our ports were closed against
all Italians who cannot fetch across with
them certificates of good moral character.

Of their inferiority, the more peaceful and
contented will their own lives be.
The colored editors would serve the
members of their race to better purpose if,
instead of soliciting Offices for the blacks
and demanding that whites shall associate
with the negroes on terms of equality, they
would encourage the colored people to rec
ognize the fact that the wall between the
races which nature has bnilt cannot be
over thrown by either race.
