been deemed potitic by Quincy, the
colored boss, to hold the election Of
a positive rival.
This support of the Reform or
the Oily White" movement by
the northern Republicans will re-
suit in the practical demonstra-
ton Of it's efficiency, and by the
return to w ashington of Republi.
can congressman for the first time
in fourteen years. Surely this
would be the most practical poll
tics, far better than theorizing and
of more benefit to the party.
This Reform movement is now
going on in Texas and Tennessee,
and will spread over every state
in the south, and needs only the
encouragement of the National
party in practical manner to fin
ally result in the disintegration OF
the "Solid South" for it is an ad-
mitted fact by so good authority
as H. Herman Blount, of New
Orleans, the colored president OF
the Louisiana State Republican
league, that "there is undoubtedly
large element in the south in
sympathy with the Protection
policy of the Republican party,
but alienated on. account of race
prejudices."s -
Ithas been claimed by Cuney,t the
colored boss, that the Negroes poll
1879 of the Republican votes Of Tex
as, but an examination of the &C.
tual figures shows that the actual
average is less than 25&6. Take
for instance the five counties
Cass, Lamar, McLennan, Ft. Bend,
and Harrison, and we find that I'M
der the census of 1890 these had
ll,407 colored voters, and yet in the
same year the Republican ticket
received only 2,466 votes, white
and black.
In the First Congressional Dis
trict of Texas the census Of 1890
shows l2,S01 colored voters, while
in 1892 the Republican candidate
for Congress received only 3,7O3
votes, white and black.
In the Second Congressional dis
trict the census of 1890 shows 15,-
633 colored voters, while the Re-
publican candidate in 1892, re-
ceived only 1908 votes, white and
black.
In the Seventh district the GEN.
sus of 1890 shows l2,O64 colored
voters and no Republican candi-
date in the field.
In the counties Of Fort Bend,
Gonzales, Madison, Morris, Pamela,
Walker and Wood, the census OF
1890 shown 1876 colored voters,
while the Republican vote for Har-
rison in 1898 was only 1885, white
and black, and it is not claimed
that there was any "bulldozing" or
"intimidatin," and what is true in
Texas is true in every southern
state also.
Under the census of 1890 the
state of Alabama had 14O,763 col
ored voters; Georgia had l79,O28

Louisiana had 1859; South Caro-
lima had 1872, S4S, making a total OF
572, 255 colored voters, and yet the
Republican vote in those states in
1892 for President Harrison was
only 96,2lS, white and black, while
an examination of the l6 southern
states shows the same condition
existing in all, and that in those
counties where the negro predomi-
mates, there are the Democratic
strongholds, and in those counties
where the white predominant,
there the cause Of Republicanism
has made, and is making today,
the greatest progress.
These statements can not be
gainsaid they are amply sub
stantiated by accessible statistics !;
and what is the story they tell,
to what conclusion must we, as
thinking men, finally come?
Is it not time that steps should
be taken looking in the direction
of reformation of our party
machinery and a reorganization
upon new lines Of industrial and
commercial policies?
The movement now on foot, fos-
tered and promoted by the Reform
Republicans of Texas, and which
for the second time has placed a
full ticket in the field, appeals to
the patriotism and loyalty of all
Republicans who are interested in
the growth and development of the
party, and the dissemination of the
principles of protection for Ameri-
can industries and American labor,
an honest financial policy and reci-
procity between the states of the
American continent.
The ticket placed in nomination
by the convention at Dallas, Au-
gust 9th and 7th, stands the peer
ofany ticket ever submitted to the
suffrage OF the Republicans Of this
state, and trust it will commend
itself to all as the ticket which Of
fers the best guarantee to the PEG.
pie of wise, prudent and econo-
mical administration of the affairs
of the state, and will enlist the
hearty sympathy and active sup
port of all patriotic Republicans
of Texas. l.. P, GOODELL,

soANDINAVIANs HOLD A FAIR

Pretty Girls in Swedish, and
Norwegian Costumes.
Upon the top floor of the Post Building.
/ No. 90 Montgomery street, the ladies of the
Scandinavian Lutheran Church are holding
a fair. Not many people know chat there is
such a church in Jersey City, but the fact
remains The Rev. Johan Schieve is the
nastor. and his congregation is composed OF
Nprwegians. Swedes and Danes. There Is
no church building, for the society Is poor
but services are held every Sunday mornlng
in Humboldt Halt. and there is a nice little
fund that grows and grows, notwithstanding
frequent calls upon it for charity.
It is for the benefit and Increase OF that
that the ladies are holding a fair. Mrs
2Schieve, the pastors energetic wife, is OF the
p-reatest assistance to Mrs. Thomson, who is
the lady President, while the Treasurer, Mrs
Larsen. grieves over the bad weather that SO
persistentIy keeps people away.
Among the many things that might De
said of the fair, it is safe to pick out two. IL
simplicity and single-heartedness there mas
never been anything to equal it, and the ice
cream and coffee are lawful good and sols
the homemade a -,
Tho walls of the hau are decorated WIN
Norwegian, Swedish, Danish and American
flags. and the big room Is very pretty; put
the chief beauty is not in the decoratlons-It
iis in the charming young girls, dressed 10
the national costumes of Norway, Sweden
and Denmark. Everybody ought to go tS
the fair to see them, and they 70 speno
some money. The elevator runs every now
and then, and it costs nothing TO go INTO the
fair. The hope is that it will cost a good
deal to get out, as there is rarely a chance 10
do more good with a little money. The falr
closes tomorrow evening.

MORE ARM0R PLATE TESTS.

WASHINGTON. May 25s 1s94.-At Indian
Head proving ground tomorrow, a seven
teen-inch armor plate, typical of the turrets
of the battleshlp Massachusetts, will be at
tackled by the rwelve-inch rifle, under con-
ditions similar to those Of last Saturday,
which resulted in demolishing an eighteen
inch plate at the first shot. The result of the
trial is awaited with unusual interest by the
Ordnance experts on account of the conten-
ton made by the steel contractors that the
Harveyizing process is unsuited for plates of
over twelve inches thickness, as several in
ternal strains are developed by the treat
ment that renders the steel exceedingly
brittle.
This idea has been combat5ed by naval
officers, who declare that the faults discov-
cred are more probably due to the lack of
sufficient care exercised by the manufactur-
ers. Tomorrow's trial is expected TO throw
much light on the subject.

PASTOR KRANrzs NEW HOME
An Informal Reception Last Might
to His Practitioners.

to His ParfshtOners.
There was a good old-fashioned, jovial
time sort of a -housswarming ia the parson-
age of Old Trinity M. E. Church last even
ing, when Rev. John and Mrs. Krantz re-
ceived the p~rettiest compliments on the new
parsonage.
Notwithstanding the rain, nearly two
hundred people visited the house, inspected
it and Dartook of the bounteous hospitality
Of the fndefatigable pastor. Mrs. Crossman
aud Mr.. VIM j.. Machin added to the fes-
Invites with most excellent music. Mr..
Machin's tenor songs were charmingly sung,
and the piano solos of Mrs. Crossman were,
as the ladies said, ssjust two sweet for any
thing.n There was no programme. Every
thing ran in an informal, g~c-as-you-please
sort of way, and therein consisted the
pleasure of Pastor and Mrs. Krantz's house
warming.
AS to the now parsonage. the cause OF the
rejoicing, it is an ideal home, rooiny, well
furnished and fitted with every appliance to
properly administer the principles and prac-
tice of domestic science.
