How to Stop Southern Outrages,

A delegation of negroes yesterday wait
ed on the President and induced him to
listen to their tale of woe about south
ern outrages."
In view of the approaching campaign,
he gave them what comfort he could. but
it was necessarily scant. Among other
things he advised them to collect and
publish the statistics.
When this tabulation is made 1t will be
seen that nearly all Of these "outrages y
spring from two classes Of crimes that the
blacks are in the habit of committing.
One of these is cold-blooded murder; the
other. and the most frequent, is worse
than murder.
The negroes can secure cessation OF
the outrages" against which they muir
muir by ceasing to commit these crimes.
In no other possible way can they accom-
plish what they wish.
Stop these crimes and the outrages ]"
will stop themselves.
Hundreds of times have we seen IN print
in negro papers bitter denunciations OF
the southern people for the swittness with
which they lynch black fends, but never
once have we seen the negroes advised to
shake off their lustful instincts.
If punishment were less speedy and GER
tain than it now is unprotected women in
lonely country places could not feel safe
for q moment.

The Eorca Bill.

The Republican State Convention Of
Pennsylvania declared Wednesday in
favor of the force bill. THIS bill is what
the South has to fear and is what compels
her to stand solid tor the Democratic
party, whether that party berepresented by
CLEVELAND, or Hill, or anybody else, and
whether that party favor or oppose the
free coinage of silver. She is under bonds
to support the party which keeps the Re-
publicans from returning her to worse
condition than she was in during the dark
days Of reconstruction. The redistricting
of the Empire State for the election Of
congressman and members of the State
Legislature will perhaps suffice to protect
her from the force bill, but nothing else
gives her the assurance that the next ma
tional House of Representatives will be
Democratic and herself safe from out
RACES intolerable. What calamity to her
would be the election to the presidency OF
candidate in favor Of that bill
