THE NEaKO PRoRI.ENI.

The New York sun has an interest
ing page Of correspondence and inter-
views with prominent colored men,
North, South, East and West, on the
future Of the colOrod race and the sig
niiicanee Of the recent emigration move
ment. These opinions, expressed by in
telligent representatives Of their race,
are of decided interest and are OF
value in the discussion Of this important
question.
It's a remarkable fact that the en-
frapchisement Of the colored man has
not brought the results expected,
and has proven, in fact, failure. The
opinions expressed arein the main hope
ful OF the future, but the
most casual reading between the
lines shows widespread and deep
seated0 dissatisfaction among Afro
Americans in every section Of the eOun-
try. The most hopeful among the SUMS
correspondents looks ahead for genera
tions. There is nothing in the present,
All agree, for the cOlOred man in Amer
lea.
It's significant fact that the chief
advocate OF the movement toward
emigration is Bishop w. H. TURNER, one
Of the most advanced and widely inlu-
entail colored men in the country, and
that colored men of all classes, from
professional men to plantation workers,
believe in the movement looking 10 the
remoyal of AfrO-Americans TO the
.Blsck Republic" Of Liberia. A prom
ipent New York colored man says:
CASA matter Of fact, there is prejudice
IT the North which Is more 20 our 1IseS
VANTAGE in practice than that OF the south.
Tror that reason the colored men In the
Northern States are not nearly so progress

ALeER OUT OF 1T.

Gen. ALGER has joined the sixty odd
millions who are not presidential posi-
biities. Editor DANA said the other
day to a Boston reporter who asked
him about ALGER's denial of the charge
that he was dismissed from the army:
she denies the statement this morning,
and says he voluntarily resigned rather
than bother about charge Instituted oy
General Custer in retaliation for his re-
fusal TO put his (Custer's) nephew on his
stat; but such denial doesn't count much
against General Sheridan's recorded recon-
mendation. Alger is out OF 1T. 1t will De
Harrison against the man the Democrats
puts Up, who sincerely believe will be
Senator Hill"
This is brief and to the point but the
gray-haired editor Of the sun does not
down ALGER with quite so dull and
sickening a thud' as does the Chicago
Herald, which, commenting on Dana's
charges says:
General Ayers military record is imma-
terial. There is not enough Of IL 10 entltle
him to praise or TO warrant his condemna-
ton. Like thousands OF other Republican
politicians he served in the army in an in
ferior position, and, after the close Of the
war, began big business as hero on
small capital. His title of General" is
not military, but political, and even as a
political honor it is tribute to his wealth
and assumption rather than TO his ability,
for he is neither speaker, an organizer
nor a shrewd manipulation. He has the
sort of constituency which always follows
a rich man with his hanos outstretched::
When the hands remain empty length of
time the constituency vanishes. No in
dictment Of the Republican party could be
much stronger than the fact that such
man as Alger is seriously considered as
possible candidate for President.

INDIANS AND COWBOYS
Fighting In New MeXico-several Indians
Known TO Have Been Killed.

known to Have Been hllieu'
ALBUQUERQUE, n. M, February 80
A hot fight is now raging between cow
bows and Indians near Coolidge Station
on the Atlantic and Pacific railroad,
and dispatches from there say that the
Indians have been noticed carrying
three Of their dead from the field OF
battle. The lighting is said TO De des-
perate, and the cowboys, who are
greatly outnumbered, are cOntesting
every inch OF ground. According to
kilograms received here the fight is in
progress near Coddiogton, not a great
distance from Coolidge. Each side is in
the timber, and shooting al each other
from behind trees. -
$. NJ. Dennis, the saw miller at Cool
idge, who is here last night, received a
despatch from his manager, A. f.
Batchelder, that Navajo Indians were
cOngregating in squads of from % 10 so
at the small towns on the Atlantic and
Pacific with the intention Of cleaning
out the COW boys along the road. At
ChaYes 70 Indians are holding a pow
WOW, have on the war paint and are
heavily armed. The people are in great
excitement. The whole population OF
Coolidge and vicinity are up in arms
and ready for the conflict.
Yesterday number of cowboys as
sembled at Coolidge and defed the In
dams then in town to commence carry
ing into execution their threats. The
Indians left on horse back and went in
the direction OF CoddingtOn's ranch. An
hour later runner came into Coolidge
at break neck speed and reported that
an engagement was then in progress at
the rancho between the Indians and
cowboys there and that If the latter
were not soon reinforced the Indians
would annihiate them. Those in Coo
lidge then left to join their associates
but the actnal result Of the fight has
not been received.

Honey as a Specific.

But few people are cognizant Of the
benefits to be derived from moderate
use of honey as food. Saccharine mat
ter, as rule, is apt to effect the system
injuriously; but If taken in the form Of
honey it at once becomes valuable
food and medicine. Instead Of having
it given to us in combination with bulk
foods, as in the cane and beet, it is, in
the case OF honey, mingled with
fruit juices derived from flowers
highly charged with medicinal
properties. Honey taken as food
becomes powerful medium to the
sugar-fed and half diseased, and many
people must begin on small quantities
and acquire an appetite for it. Foul
air, improper ventilation, coal gas and
sudden change of temperature and ex-
posure of lungs and throat to sudden
chill are the source OF no end OF throat
and bronchial troubles. A free, regu-
lar and constant use OF honey Is prob
ably the best medicine for throat trou-
bles known, and its regular use is
largely corrective.

their lady friends to an informal dance
in the hoproom. 1t was just a week
after Nita Guthrie's adventure, and al
ready, except in the thoughts of two or
three men, that strange affair was a
thing of the past. People had settled
down to an acceptance of her own ex-

moment when Miss Guthrie's scream of
terror had appalled, the garrison the
danes and damsels Of their several
households had shown an unwonted de-

after nightfall, and that much more
