AUGUST first was generally observed
by the colored peopled as the ami
versary of the Emancipation of the
colored race in the West Indies Pic
MICS, orators, songsters and bands of
music helped swell the chorus of joy
full sounds in the city and country
where the sons and daughters Of Ham
celebrated the festal day, marking an
epoch in the history of their race. No
page in human history is more replete
with romance than the recorded story
of the upward growth of the black
race. From the chains of the slave
to the full freedom of citizen was an
immense and perilous leap. 1t was a
transformation of wonderful, startling
and eternal import to the children of
African descent and to the entire hui
man race as we'll. When Abraham
Lincoln broke the letters of four mil
lion slaves in the United States, he
forced upon modern civilization the
most serious problem of all the ages.
The change was looked upon an peri
lous to the whites and blacks alike.
The problem Of self government by
the people may not be fully demon
strated, but no sane and sincere critic
will deny that the black man has
shown by his courage, his thrift and
integrity that he is entitled to the
rights Of full citizenship. The idle,
vicious and incorrigible blacks are
lessenlng in nunbers, year by year,
while the number of workers and
students among them is gradually
increasing. The emancipation day

the Negro that his citizenship Is a
sacred trust to be guarded by his
highest sense Of honor and cultivated
by his personal labors has failed to

The Difference.

Recently the Topeka Capital pub
lished sensational articles that State
Printer Snow had defrauded the state
out of $4,000 on supreme court re-
ports, and some $4,000 in material,
&c. The matter came up before
Judge Hazen a day or so ago. The
Judge decided that Snow was entirely
innocent and that, as matter OF fact,
the state owed Snow, instead Of Snow
owing the state.
The Capital published the original
charges with big scare headlines Of
the most fashy kind. Here is the
way it tells the other side:
The attorney generals motion to re-
quire the receiver of the Hamilton
Printing company to turn over to the
state certain book paper and binding
material was dismissed, the court find
ing that the state owed Snow $40 on
stock over and above all he was Charg-
ed with.
Observe that there is no scare head
over this, and not a word about the
Judges remarks that there had been
no violation of law in the matter Of

WORTHLESS BONDS.

The Legislative committee appoint
ed to investigate the State school fund
securities adjourned just as 1t was
getting down to business. The char
acter Of the testimony given yesterday
and this morning is such as to cause
the blush of shame to come to the
face of every honest man in Kansas.
1t has been shown that Republican
and Popullst officials from the time
that the bond business begun in Kan
sas have been standing in with the
sharks and plunderers who have load
ed onto the State school fund hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars of
worthless bonds. Men have been i'm
plicated who stand high in the coun-
ellis of both parties, while prominent
railroad officials who are now in hid
ing come in for share of the odium
The testimony Of Mckinley in charg-
ing the Populist officials and hangers
on with boodleismin the sale Of Wich-
tia county bonds was no more sensa-
tlonal than that of +. p. Lindsay,
who connected B. P. Waggener, James
W. Orr and Charles e. Lobdell with
deal in the disposal of $4,000
worth of Scott county bonds, which
are absolutely worthless. These
bonds we're voted to the Missouri Pa
cifc railroad and were sold by Wag-
gener to the Republican school fund
board during the Humphrey admins
tration. Lindsay's testimony showed
that in the litigation over the bonds
! in the United States District court,
| Leland J. Webb, who was his law
partner, had betraS '-- w."
out the county for which they were
attorneys. He testified that Charles
e. Lobdell was interested with Wag-
gener and Orr ia the sale OF these
worthless bonds to the State, and that
to accomplish their purpose they had
to "fx" Webb.
Subpoenas were issued two weeks
ago for Waggener and Orr, but when
the sergeant-at-arms of the COMMITTEES

WILL BE NO CONVENTION,

There will be no Republican State
convention to nominate a candidate
for chief justice Of the Supreme court
il Cy Leland has his way, A State
convention this year is exactly the
thing that Oy don't want. The reason
he don't want a convention ID that he
couldn't use it in his business. Lee
lands business just now is to prevent
the party from expressing its views
on the silver and whisky questions.
A discussion and wrangle over these
two perplexing issues just now will
not do Leland and his gang any good
The apple jack statesman is not fool,
He knows that if two or three hun
bred prohibitlonists and as many re-
submissionlsts, backed up with as
many 16 to l silver advocates get to-
gether in convention in Topeka that
he will not be able to hold them.
Mr.. Leland thinks it will be easier
for him to slip into the next national
Republican convention as a delegate
from Kansas if the Republican ami
mails are carefully herded this year
Let them get together in State con-
vention, and there is great danger Of
a stampede. This would be fatal to
the gang. Hence, in his call for a
meeting of the committee, he names
an early date-August 1880 as to fix
things before the party has time to
catch its breath.
The Donlphan statesman started
out yesterday on a tour Of the State
to fix the committee. His plan is for
the committee to decide against a
State convention, because it will cost
SO much" and then send food OF
petitions all over the State and have
them generally signed, requesting the
committee to make Chief Justice Mar
tin the Republican candidate.
1t is altogether probable that when
the committee meets here on the 18th
there will be crowd who will de-
mand convention. If Cy and bis
little gang refuse to allow the party
to have voice IN the selection of 9
candidate, the chances are that another
Republican candidate will be brought
