check. The complaints of the negro farmers at
the conference might really have issued from
the mouths of so many white men. Over-pro-
duction of cotton, to the exclusion OF 1ood-
crops, is a general grievance south OF the cum
berland River, and farm mortgages are not ao-
solutely unheard of as far north as the Great
Lakes. But the demands for "better teachers
and preachers" "living religion as we'll as talk
ing religion" the emancipation OF negro women
from the cotton-feld, and the observance OF
" fewer Sundays in a week"-these strike at tho
root of abuses especially prevalent among tho
blacks, the mitigation of which is essential 10
true and continued prosperity. Said one speaker
at the conference "a nian is educated, not TO
keep from work. but 50 that he can work" ana
the abundant material success OF negroes VINO
have lived up to this pithy apophthesm offers
the strongest encouragement to others whose
claim to political recognition is enforced by
genuine desert.

The town and charter elections held yester-
day in various sections of the State repeat the
story told by those that took place three weeks
ago Almost without exception Republican gains
were made Special interest, of course attaches
to the action of the voters of Duchess County,
where the carnival of fraud reached its acme IN
December. The Republicans there have III
umphed gloriously. The excessively bad weather
kept many from the polls, but not enough to
prevent a political revolution. The Board OF
Supervisors whose proceedings provoked so much
indignation contained Is h. .nocrats and s. Re
publicans. OF the Supervisors elected yesterday
16 are known to be Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, while definite reports have not been re-
ceved from the remaining towns. This IS re-
buking fraud with righteous vengeance. FROM
half dozen or more other counties emphatic ne
publican gains are likewise reported ana from
Emira, Senator Hills home the good news comes
that the Hill candidate for Mayor has been de-
feated, and that the Republican and Citizens
combination have secured control of the Common
Council, and thus completed the overthrow OF
the Democratic ring. The spring elections have
never possessed so much significance as now, and
mover have the Republicans shown themselves
in better trim for Presidential campaign.

THE TESKEGEE NEGRO CONFERENCE.


More sensible words are rarely heard concern
ing the so-callcd "negro prCblcm' than were
uttered by negroes themselves ut the Tuskegec
Ala, coored conference" of which TIE TRIB-
uNE has given a long report. The members of
this conference were not brought together for
any partisan or Sectarian purpose. They seie
net even attracted by the promise of some Won
derfuI panacca, such as emigration to Liberia,
social and political ills, and make the poor rich
and the ignorant wise. They came as the re-
port says, in their " muc-wagOns, buggies and
stcer-carts,n four hundred and twenty five farm
ers, with few ministers, lawyers and mechan-
les and in a few hours of temperate discussion
they decided, in effect, that the United States
is good enough country for its colole0 citizens ;
that the attitude of the Southern whites is not
wholly discouraging that what the negro needs
most is education, and that his own thrift and
industry can do more to elevate him IMAM any
help he can receive from outside.
These enlightened sentiments not only renccs
infinite credit on their professors. They show
that at least one section Of or negro population
is ready 10 confess its own Shortcomings, rs well
as to celebrate its gratitude To the southern white
people for whatever measure Of Ircndliness they
display. One Of the most striking features OF
the present exhibit of Southern progress is the
material advancement of the negroes, which race
prejudice has apparently not been suffered to

THE WOPLUS FAIR APPROPRIATIONS

There is chance yet for the Legislature TO
do the right thing in reference TO the appr0plia-
ton for the States representation a, the Worlds
Fair. The Assembly has not yet acted on the
bill setting aside $500, 900 for this purpose,
which passed by the Senate more than a
month ago, nothing having been done in the
lower house except TO ADOPT an amendment pro-
viding that the Ncw-YOrk building at the Fair
shall be closed on Smday-and this before it is
certain that there is to be any building at ALL.
IL In understood that the Ways and Means Com
mittec of the Assembly will consider the matter
to-day, and exSpeakcr Hustled is credited with
the intention Of making effort to secure an
increase in the appropriation to 100000 In
the opinion Of a large number of keen and saga
cious business men who have given special at
tenion 10 the question, no sum less than $500
600 will be sufficient to enable the Empire State
TO make a showing N Chicago accOrdant with
it, wealth, dignity and leading position among
the States Of the Union. The matter is enc o.
vital concern 10 every patriotic citizen.
If the Sunday amendment to the Worlds Fair
bill stands, the measure must q necessity be
returned to the Senate for final passage. Thus
both branches of the Legislature are confronted
with the opportunity to respect the general de-
mand which has been made for an adequate APP
preparation. AT the hearing given By the Sem

The House has at last passed the Indian APP
preparation bill. OF it's action the only good
thing to be said is that it is not so bad as it
might have been. Especially regrettable is the
wanton reduction in the amount set apart for
Indian education. There is 10 excuse for this
whatever except the insane desire of the Demo
cratic economists to make great display of
frugality. So much virtually admitted by
Chairman Peel yesterday. 1t is a sorry display
of miserable politics.
bill in the interest of the elevated railroads
was "sneakedr through the Legislature last
year, and though its true character became
known after its passage Governor Hill suffered
it to become Il law 1t changed the method of
procedure in suits for damages brought against
these railroads by enabling the roads TO take
such cases out Of the equity courts and submit
the question of damages in each suit to jury.
Yesterday the Court of Appeals decided that this
act, known as the Mcknight law, is unconstti-
tiona. This decision is not only clear triumph
of juetce, but it is in fact severe rebuke to the
methods by which the legislation for the elevated
roads was secured The roads have Iesorted to
like trickery in other cases in order to advance
their interests. 1t is satisfaction that they have
been effectiially checkmated where they were
sure they had won the game.
Some Of the seventy-four Assemblymen who
voted for The Sullivan Elevated Railway bill last
week have been claiming that they did so under
misapprehension. Yesterday they had a chance
to set themselves right, but, strange TO say,
failed to improve it, a motion to recall the bill
from the Governor was made by Mr.. Conkling
and passed before Mr. Sullivan or any friend of
the bill knew what had been done. When
Sullivan moved to reconsider this action he had
10 difficulty whatever in carving his point. Mr..
