1t is, of course, very inconvenient and
unpleasant for New York millionaire
to be confronted in his private office bv
crank carrying satchel of dynamite,
but it is the natural and inevitable result
of the fact that the lawlessness displayed
in the Malta massacre in New Orleans
and the frequent lynchings in the South
meets with no rebate but rather com.
mendation from public sentiment. Just
so long as malcontents can evsde the law
and wreak vengeance upon the humblest
laborer in the swamps Of Louisiana or
Texas. Others of their class are liable
to invade the private office of the New
York millionaire; when the humber
classes are safe under the protection of
the law, the higher are even more SO.

appointment Of Negro to the chief fed.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 8, 1892.

A correspondent of the New York
Tribune forcibly and earnestly traces the
connection between election rascalities
Of the South and those recently perpe-
trated in New York. He says: 1T ie
anything more than the logical Sc quence
Of the Democratic style of carrying cleo
lions in the South for the last twenty
years? Allowed to 60 unchecked there,
what more natural than that it should
spread until it has reached our very
door? The scoundels of the North, see-
ing that their ik of the South 60 unpun-
5shed, become emboldened to put in
practice the same syste N of fraud and
cheating. People of this country will
some day wake up from their apathetic
sleep to find themselves slaves, ready
made to the hand of some servan' of the
David H. Hill stamp, who Is to-day the
virtual dictator Of State of New York.
And for this apathy of the people, the
Republican press of the country is large
ly to blame. How little do we see in it
Of the ballot box stuf1ing, the cheating,
the counting out that has been going ON
in the South for almost generation"
The whirligig of time brings it's re-.
venge. The New York millionaire who
liz too apathetic to 90 to the polls and
vote for good government will be awak-
ened from his apathy when he learns
that it's natural and inevitable conse-
quences is visit Of dynamite fiends to
his office, and the apathetic press will
arouse itself when own proprietors take
their turn in suffering the effects of BAL
aot-box stufting and cheating. Had
there been fair elections in the South
last year, the free-silver cranks would
be in the House, and a number of the
tariff reformers would be in the pene.
tertiary reforming themselves.

The African slave trade is yet carried
on to ouch an extent. that a thousand
lives are sacrificed every day in the
year. Indeed it is doubtful whether in
the most barbarous periods of human
history there has been any greater bar
barity than the African slave trade of
today. Forzy years there has been con-
slant agitation in Europe for some action
to suppress it. The result of long DELHI
Grafton was the treaty of Brussels, which
every leading European power except
France has now signed. and France and
the United States are the only two i'm
portant powers which have not vet af
fixed their signatures to it. The treaty
cannot 60 into effect except by the rati.
fcation of all the civilized governments,
and if it goes into effect there is every
reason to believe that very much of the
slave trade will be abated. The treaty
OF Brussels is now before the Senate of
the United States, and an explanation of
Its benefits and of our duty in the matter
is made in the January number of The
Forum by Judge Lambert Tree, late
Minister to Belgium.

A paper was read by President James
A. Spencer of Charleston, S C, on the
Establishment of Separate Churches
for Colored People," A letter of greet
ing from Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul
was read, in which the archbishop ex-
pressed his conviction that no distinc.
ton should be made as to color of pupils
in parish schools. Friedrich L. McGhee
OF st. Paul, in an exhaustive paper on
National Institutions" took the ground
that the system of separate schools for
black and white throughout the greater
portion of the lands, was the most
