A New Trotting Sulky.

The mare Nancy Hanks broke the world 5
trotting record in d new sulky that it is
thought will revolutionize trotting. The
wheels Of this sulky are like those of the
new safety bicycle-baIl-bearing with pnell-
matte tire. In other words, it is a sulky
mounted on two bicycle wheels.
Last week Mr.. w. G. Marshall sent his
sulky to the Pray Pneumatic Suky Co.,
Boston, and had two of these pneumatic
tired, ball-hearing wheels attached. The
vehicle arrived Thursday. and was much adj
mired by horsemen, who see in it a lower
ing of the record of Mr.. Marshal's horses
1t would have been used in the races last
week had they taken place. The sulky will
be seen, however, when the next race take )
place.

FIX A REMEDY, NOT The BLAME.
WHAT is this from the Philadelphia
Telegraph, a Republican paper, treason
or TRUTH The Telegraph says;
The great masses Of the illiterate col
ored people Of the South were given the
privilege, OF the right, OF suffrage not
because they we're believed to be fit to
enjoy Il, OF because good policy demanded
that they should have and exercise IT, or
that the country's moral sense re-
quired they should be given IT, The
franchise was bestowed ON the Southern
blacks because OF party exlgency. They
were known TO be upon the side Of the
party In power, which knew that they
would vote for it's candidates, and 80
help to keep II in power. This act was one
Of political expediency, and had no
higher, better, or other motive than
that.
Possibly some rRbid editor In the South,
or, indeed, In Delaware, whore the exi-
gency Of the Republican party still exists
will call 1t treason; any fair man who
retains his faculties unimpaiied by the
necessity Of lgetting in 'our nlgger"
vote, will accept 1t as trush.
Now. that Is the whole contention Of
the Republican party here. It's man
gers do not pretend to attempt to
do anything beyond getting in the
negro vote. They do not know
anything else They do not pretend
that the negro vote is beneficial to the
state or TO the negroes. They simply
demand that good, bad and Indifferent,
resident or nonresident, repeater or hon
est man, bribed or free, no matter in
what condition black man offers him
self, he shall have vote.
There are many honest and respectable
negroes. but they are in the minority
The majority Of them are ignorant and a
large number of them are bribed. In
nearly all cases the white men Of low de-
gree take advantage Of these lamentable
faults and take charge OF their suifrsges.
and on one plea or another control, too
frequently by purchase, their votes.
1t is indisputable, that, as a class, the
negroes are not independent voters. The
Republicans do not claim that they are
This state Of affairs causes dlssatisfac-
tion all around. The friction between the
whites and the negroes often leads to
bloodshed; it talways threatens trouble.
Meantime the negroes get abuse from
one party and promises from the other
Their political advances and advantages
are not commensurate with their indus
trial, commercial and social progress.
Politically they have retrograded The

they have taught them all the political
