Mn CLEVELAND AND FRED DOUGLASS

A printed circular headed Blood Is
Thicker Than Water" has been circulated
freely among the workingmen OF this
city within the past day or so, In which
the old charge against Mr.. Cleveland is
repeated that he gave an improper social
recognition TO Fred Douglass. Mr.. Cleve-
land himself has answered this charge
In a manner which should satisfy every
fair man that the proper officers In the
executive department only gave the re-
cognition by custom due the office held
by Fred Douglass, to which Office he had
been appointed by Mr.. Clevelan1's pre-
decessor.
That was the whole matter. If Mr..
Cleveland's subordinates had done less
they would not have been the faithful and
impartial administrators Of the Govern
ment they should have BEEN Moreover.
it should be understood that the Demo-
cratic party is fair and impartial. Demo-
Gratis have always, when not disturbed by
incendiary black Republicans, rendered
TO the negroes the fullest measure. not
only Of justice, but of liberality, and in
what they have so done tho Democrats
have only undertaken to give the negro
what fairly and properly belongs TO him
according to his abilities, and not like the
Republicans. to put him in positions Of
trust and power to which he would be ad-
vanced for the sake Of plumber or in reck-
less contempt of the good of the people.
Where truth and justice alone are TO be
observed the negro, like the white man,
Will find his proper place In the Demo-
cratic party.

Success begets success. The

that way and it is. Else what use

for brain work as well as wool

and busy-ness didn't follow. Busy

planning for new victories.

MIR CHAMBERLAIN ON THE FORCE
BILL.

=. II. Chamberlain, Esq, was Governor
of South Carolina during the reconstruc-
ton period. He was one of the Union
soldiers left South by the war. Mr..
Chambcrlain's connection with the Gov
eminent of reconstruction made him, as
a matter OF course. unacceptable to the
people OF South Carolina, but the people
of that State raised no objection to him
while he was there outside of his char
acter as a reconstruction officer. AS a
man he was liked and respected. Gov
ernor Chamberlain is a calm, deliberate,
thinking man, and his soJourn IN South
Carolina during her darkest days gave
him an ample opportunity to study the
state of affairs and TO estimate the con-
sequences of enacting and enforcing the
odious measure that the Republicans
have in store for us.
Mr.. Chamberlain was long a leader in
the Republican party. and he knows the
temper and purposes OF its leaders as
we'll as any man living. He has had an
interview for publication, in which he
says:
Il do not question that il Mr.. Harrison
and his party felt that they had a free
hand they would pass the Force bill.

We are Informed upon competent au-
thorlty that the Third partyites are hav-
ing a full Democratic electoral ticket
printed with the name Of Walter d.
Grant upon it, This is one of the many
varieties of tickets the Republicans and
their Third party allies are getting out
with the intent of confusing and
ensnaring the Democracy. Democrats
must, therefore. be on their guard and
scan their tickets carefully. The one we
fiy at our masthead IL the only genuine
ballot for true Democrats to vote.

J. w. Southland. chairman of the Re
publican county committee Of Henrico,
has sent letter to Major Il. w. Court
ney, chairman of the electoral board OF
the county. demanding that he be furn-
ished lists OF the judges at the several
precincts, and says: 1T is hardly ne
cessary for me to say that we shall insist
upon representation at the ballot box,
and as this is Federal election we hope
there will be some way that VIC can Sc
cure II or get redress for failure so TO
do"
We learn that the electoral board OF
Henrico have complied strictly with the
law and can find nothing therein requir-
ing them TO report TO the chairman OF
Republican county committee. II seems
as II all Republicans are governed by the
idea that they have right TO call upon
democrats TO stand and deliver. They
forget that the Force bill has not yet
become Jaw.

which II stood sixteen years ago.
These are brave and wise and patriot'c
words. for which the people of the South
are duly grateful to Governor Chamber
lain. and Of which the Reds and Har-
risons would do well TO take careful note.

Even Mr.. Den Cameron, who, although
not especially friendly to Mr.. Harrison, is
nevertheless loyal to the Republican
party, is in a state Of bewiderment. He
is quoted as saying: "Thesituation is
puzzling in the extreme. Some Of my
political friends seem to be confident of
success, and while listening to them 1t is
reasonable enought TO expect 1t. But
then follow the confident claims Of the
Democrats, with explanations Of the great
unrest and doubtful conditions Of things
in the West and my faith is shaken. The
fact is. indeed, there are times when
feel that the President will win, and
other times when am bound to confess
that Democratic tidal wave next Tues
day would not surprise me-"
