NEGRO DEMOCRATS, Members of the Afro-American
 Bureau of Organization, TO MEET IN INDIANAPOLIS A Gall in Which the Action of Alabama's Negro Democrats
 Is Complimented.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The Afro- Amer ican bureau of organization of the demo. cratic congressional committee has issued the following call:
 gro Democrats of Color of the United States: 'The National Negro Democratic league will convene in Indianapolis, Ind, on the 14th instant. It is hoped that negro dem ocrats from every state and territory will be represented to evidence by their pres ence and voice their loyalty to the policies and principles of the administration. At no time in the history of negro democracy has there been greater necessity for coun- selling together to determine the future course and policy of the negro in America. The present business stagnation, due to the riotous legislation of the past adminis- .tration, is being held up to the great masses of negroes by the republican press of the country as the result of democratic ascendancy; through this convention many will learn the true facts and causes of this stagnation.
 stIt is matter of sincere congratulation to note the unswerving fealty shown to the democratic party by our people in Alabama in the recent election. Possibly for tbe first time was the negro vote directly ap. peaied to, and it's response WAS evidenced by return of large democratic majoritles in every negro county in tue state. This open appeal to the negro vote is and should be especially gratifying to you and the n5groes generally, since it forever refutes the statement made by our friends, the enemy, that "the negro is not wanted in the democratic party" and at the same time it evidences that the negro vote is a factor and is destined to become more so, as he exercises an intelligent discrimina- tion in the use of his ballot.
 Let the forces then gather in great um bers at Indianapolis and join in an haImo- nious and intelligent discussion of the conditions confronting us as a race.
 R. G. STILL, Chief Afro American Bureau of Organi-
 Eation of the Democratic Congressional Committee.

Bismarck in recent speech todelegatcs from German chambers of commerce told what he thought of millionaires in unnistakable language. He said: Com mcrco and agriculture ought to go hand in hand. Although the latter ill the pres ent depression deserves all consideration it ought not to le favored at the expense of trade and industry. Tine bitterness with which millionaires are regarded in Germany is not justified. It would be much better for Germany if she pos sessed, like England and America, ten times as many millionaires as she now has"

Best Armor Plate,

Indian Head Is point on the Mary land shore of the Potomac river 20 miles below Washington. It is there that, in the past four years, the fact has been demonstrated that the best armor plate for naval vessels is made in the United States, and not only that, but it is also made most cheaply The best armor plate is now made of mixed nickel and steel, tempered by the Harvey process. In France the cost of nickeling the armor plate is $40 a ton, In the United States it is $l1.20 ton.
 Indian Head has witnessed some of most remarkable armor plate and pro- jectile tests in the world. At the first great armor test plates from England and France were sent to compete with with those made in the United States. The United States Rrmor came out vic torious. Then two years ago there was another test-that time to decide wheth- CT the Harveyized nickel steel was bet ter than steel made by any other proc ess. The result was victory for the Harvey method. The last trial, recently completed, was to compare the work of different American manufacturers of armor plate. Once more the verdict is that our armor plate is the best. Two specimens of plate were subjected to the force of tremendous shots, one 12 inch plate, the other F inch. They were perforated by shot having projectile force enough to move q 500 tons of mat. ter one foot.
 English and French experts witnessed the trial and were especially surprised to find the temper Of tho metal so per feet that the perforations made q clean. round hole, without crack or Assure.

Riding a Wheel Up Hill.

Now that several ingenious individu. als have invented device for enabling bicyclists to climb q hill upon their ma chimes the wonder is that it was not done long ago The thing seems very simple after also simple that two or three persons have actually hit upon the idea about the same time. One young man in New York sent his models to Washington lately expecting to secure a patent. He was informed that only 8 month before different person, entirely unknown to him, had applied for pat ent on precisely the same invention. The idea was in the air apparently, for there could have been no possible chance Of one of the young men getting it from the other. Perhaps the same thing hap. pens oftener than inventors imagine, and lawsuits for patent infringements are fought to the bitter end sometimes, when neither inventor stole the others idea, but it struck both brains about tho EuLiO tiiitNs
 In mechanical parlance the hill climb ing device consists of rag wheel or sprocket wheel and chain. The wheel has teeth which fit into links upon a driving chain. The sproeket wheel is attached to the diamond frame of the bicycle. The driving chain with the link sockets passes over it and back around the axle of the rear bicycle wheel Motion Is communicated from the sprocket wheel to the rear wheel of tho bicycle by the driving chain, and thus the machine is pedaled mp hill, On level ground the chain is thrown off. The device can only be used on the safe ty bicyele, The drawback to its best working is the mud and dust that inva' riably are thrown upon this part of bi' cycle.

The people of Massachusetts have be come SO light minded and frivolous tha: they celebrate the annual Fast day in al. together too giddy a style, aud those who remember the ancient traditions are shocked. Feasting on Fast day has be- come such scandal in old fashioned Massachusetts ayes that the rccommen- dation has been frequently made to have the day done away with altogether. Even Governor Russell is in favor of abolishing it and made such recommendation on the occasion of his third inaugural ad. dress. Those who favor the abolishmcnt of Fast day believe in the observance of Good Friday instead. But the adoption of this solemn Catholic holy day in Mas. saclusetts would Do enough to wake the old colonists from the dead.

NE HITS HARD.

A dispatch from Bay City says:
"Rev." Sam Bettes, the cowboy
evangelist, has been cutting wide
swath here. He appeared in the city
after the Munhan revival three weeks
ago, and began holding meetings under
the auspices of the city mission. After
few nights the mission rooms were
toe small to hold the crowds that turn
ed out to listen TO the cowboy, and he
changed his headquarters to the Wash
ington avenue rink, where he has since
held forth. One of his first acts was to
criticise the ministers of the city and
their work. He next tackled church
members, charging them with hypocri-
sy. For this he was called down by A .
Mcmillan, editor of the Times-Press,
and in return he jumped on the editor
and his paper with both feet. The
city government was his next topic,
and he openly accused the municipal
officers of every kind of crookedness.
His last victims were the Jews, against
whom he delivered a bitter TRADE,
holding them responsible for large
share of the country's troubles. The
attack has aroused the indignation of
the local Hebrews, who threaten ven
geance. Altogether he has stirred up
more hornets nests than any one who
has ever spoken from local platform.
The city mission board has stood by
the evangelist until this week, when
they decided TO cut away, and from
now on he will be obliged to fight his
battles alone.

NOT SATISFACTORY.

When Senator David B. Hill was
asked by the GLOBES Washington cor
respondent if he had read the address
issued by the Minnesota Democratic as
sociation, ne is reported as having "smii-
ingiy answered: Yss, l hope to give
satisfactory answer to our Minnesota
Democratic friends in my speech to-
day."
The GLOBE laid the senator's speech
before its readers Tuesday morning.
We gave it in full, in order that Mime
sofa Democrats might Judge whether
the association had done the senator in
justice i'll accusing him of treachery to
the party.
With exceptions so rare as to prove
the universally of the opinion, Mime
sofa Democrats In and out of the asso-
citation are of the opinion that the
speech does not exculpate the senator;
but, while it is plea of confession, the
avoidance pleaded is insufficient to con-
Stitute even mitigation OF censure.
The speech is not satisfactory, SEN
ator. Nospeech from any Democratic
senator would be satisfactory to Mime
sofa Democrats which has received
nothing but eulogy from protectlonists
and nothing but cenSure from honest
Democrats. No speech is satisfactory
which wins the plaudits of the Repub-
lican assembly of New York. even if all
but three of the Democratic members
joined in the laudatory resolutions
through cowardice or sympathy.

and causelessIy assailed the bravest act
of President Cleveland. rich as his
record is with brave acts; his daring, in
the face of clamOr, to do right and undo
wrong in the Hawaiian ma tier. The

eanery and deception of the senior SEN
ator from New York will write tn e

St. Paul daily globe., 1894-04-12
NOT JUSTIFIED.

We have waited for the arrival of the
Record with its official report of the
speech of Senator Voorhees,, that we
might know with more certainty than
the meager press reports indicated. how
the chairman Of the finance committee
explained the extraordinary action of
the committee in placing tax supposed
to be one-eighth of cent a pound on
refined sugars, and how he justified
this gratuity 10 the sugar trust. We
confess that we find in it neither eX.
planatiOn nor Justification. There is a
quantity of rhetoric, but no facts.
There is merited denunciation in
fiorid terms OF the Mckinley permission
to Fob, and claim that the pending
bill as compared with that ''is as equity
to corruption and as integrity to crime"
The Mckinley act gave the refners
talf cent pound. ''In the pending
bill we have reduced that duty to one
eighth of cent a pound, thus wiping
out three -fOurths of the entire amount,
and we would gladly have wiped it all
out" says the senator.
But when we look for the explana-
all out, 1--WE are lost in a rhetorical mysti-
fication; maze Of words and conceal
ment OF thought. Says the senator
and this is all we can find that he says
in explanation Of this-'If to some Pc
cullar minds this action of the commits
tee appears to be compliance with the
demands Of the sugar trust, it must also
be apparent that the demands of that
Institution were of the most eXtraordi-
nary character-demandS for very
deep cut in its rates of duty, for strong
downward slope in lis profits. and for
an almost total annihilation of all the
protection it ever had"
Ii this jumbie of words means that
the sugar trust came to the committee
aud demanded that the tax on refined
sugars be cut, then il is an absurd state.
ment. Ii it is intended to mean that
the trust came and demanded protec-
ton, removed entirely by the house Oil,
and that the committee refused to give
them all they asked, but compromised
on the rate adopted, then the statement
is an uncandid way of expressing fact.
But it leaves entirely unexplained or
uDjustited the act Of giving this ra-
Lacious monopoly any leave whatever
to rob tie people. 1t is poor mouth
that Democratic senator makes i'll thus
claiming merit for reducing only meas
urably what he admits is plain and
ineXcusable robbery.
