The Police Gazette recently sent out a
long distant walker headed for Florida
There are a great many long distant
walkers on the go now; some of them
going anywhere and others nowhere, who
have been sent out by the Rothschild

city papers advertised these long distance
pedestrians last winter, extensively, but
word was passed round from head quarters
in the fall to say nothing about the
walkers" this winter and all are mum,
but they are as numerous as ever.

Douglass Last Letter-The COlOred
Statesman Discussed the Political
Situation.

BUTTE, MONT, Feb. 13.-The following
letter written by Fred Douglass the day
before his death has just been received by
Ellis P. Passmore, of this city, dated
Cedar Hill, Anacostia, D c.:
81 cannot saw that am much e1ated bv
| the victory of the Republican party,
though l am glad that the Democratic
party has met with defeat I have nv
fears that the victory of the Republicans
may make them even little more indif
terent about protecting human rights
under the constitution than when they
were in power before. 1t is to the shame
of the Republican party that it could pro-
tect the rights of American citizens every
where but at home
ut made no earnest effort to see that
the constitution was obeyed in the South
ern States and ballot box protected. The
Fourteenth Amendment declares that
when any state shall deprive any of its
citizens of the electrive franchise repre-
sentation shall be reduced &c No
attempt has been made to enforce this
provision by the Republican party or any
other yet all swore to support the con-
stitution I have not declared for anv
particular candidate for the Republican
nomination in 1896. nor do I see anv need
of such declaration at this distance of
time
1.-THE man likely to get it will be from
state which the Republicans NAV think
1t difficult but important to carry Old
Mr.. Availability will as usual decide the
question as to whom the man shall be.
Still we have chance of getting a better
man from the Republicans than from
Democrats or Populists "
The above letter was published in last
Sundays Baltimore Morning Herald,
and as our Cecil readers will see is in
answer to letter from one of Rising
Suns former old and much respected
citizens, whose greatest political weak
ness was his slavery to party. By the
tenor of Douglass reply it may be seen
that his letter was one of exuberant re.
loicing over the Republican victory at the
late election. The answer shows how
weak the colored orators faith in the old
party had grown He was almost ready
to give it up Had he lived till the next
congress had run Its 1mbec1le course and
seen cold Mr.. Availability" nominated,
we have no doubt this last man alive of
the Garrison school would have taken
leave of the party which is now owned
by Rothschild and sons. Our genial old
friend, Ellis P F., we have no apprehen-
sion will ever follow where Douglass was
sure to lead had his life been prolonged
two years The former was fused i'll the
fires kindled by Wendell Phillips, Gar
rion, Charley Burley, ct. al in the fifties,
and cooled in a mould which had blown
into it republican party" Like the
beautiful marble statues and temples
among the ruins of Greece and Rome
they remain only to mark the glories of a
