It looks very much as If there was bad
mana cement or bad faith in the handling
of the 2oO negroes who are bound for
Liberia by way Of this port. and who
arrived here last night According TO
our dispatches they expected to find
a ship awaiting them here to CON
vey them to their estimation. A Phlla-
delphia dispatch contains the statement
that a Danish fruit steamer at that port
has been chartered to transport them to
Liberia. As the steamer is not to leave
Philadelphia until Tuesday of next week
she cannot possibly get here before Thurs
day or Friday of that week, and cannot
get her passengers ON board ami be ready
TO sail before next Saturday.
From this it would appear that the ne
groes are to remain in this city a week
Who is to take care of them during that
time? 1t may be they have money enough
to provide for themselves. but the chances
are they have not. We have seen other
emigrants like these. and they hardly
had money enough among them to buy a
breakfast.
1t is said that these emigrants have paid
SAL each to the African Migra ton Society
to convey them to Liberia. The society
may be all right We don't know anything
about it, but it is evident that for SAL
per passenger it doesn't intend to pro
vide very luxurious accommodations. If
it be true that 200 negroes are to be taken
to Liberia from this port on Danish
fruit ship 1t is entirely safe to predict
that the negroes will wish many times be-
fore they reach their destination that they
were back on the plantations of Louisiana,
Alabama and Arkansas
But why do these negroes or any others
wish to so to Liberia? Do they know ?
They will not find the conditions there
as favorable for earning a living as they
are here. The negro emigrants who have
returned from there tell most distressing
tales of the country.
But what we are particularly concerned
about is that the immigrants shall not
become burdens upon this community. II
they have not the means for their support
while here the railroad that brings them
here should be required to take care of
them until they get away. The making
this city the dumping ground of a large
number of homeless and practically pen
niless blacks should not be tolerated.
That they are sent here a week before
the steamer which is to convey them to
their destination is TO arrive. indicates
bad or careless management. If the emf
grants cannot take care of themselves for
the week they will have to wait here the
city should see to it that the railroad
responsible for their coming takes care OF
them.

One Thing had Not Changed.

He had been away from his home town
Tor years and years, says the Detroit
Free Press. Which means in this in
stance, ten years, and he had gone away

times.
Now. he had come again. and as he wan
dered about the old place there was wee
changes time had wrought. 1t made him
homesick to wander about seeking the
things of his childhood and boyhood
days and finding them not.
But he found Mamie Smith and went
to her. She was kinder than of yore
and really glad to see him. And he? Well
she was ten years older, but she was
still as if it had been but yesterday since
ne had told her good-by.
Il fancy she said to him, as they sat
on the broad piazza of her home that
evening and looked over toward the hills
beyond the town that you feel quite a
stranger within our gates?'
Yes" he said sadly, Il could scarcely
have believed it if l had not experienced
it. Ten years is not eternity, either"

You can't see it very well, John" she
smiled. 1T is my name"
Ten years lad been a long time for
John to wait but she made him wait a
month longer, and when he came back
to his native town again, Mamie Smith S
name underwent change also, but it
didn't sadden John as the other changes
had done.

Woman suffrage is apparently advancing
like Pats enemy dvancin' from us
sorr!'-in Massachusetts. Last year the
Massachusetts House of Representatives
gave a majority of twelve TO bill for
woman suffrage, which was killed in the
Senate \ few days ago the House again
voted on virtually the identical bill it had
passed a year ago, and gave majority
of forty against it. However, the defeat
of the bill will not end the struggle of the
Massachusetts women to secure the bal
lot. For twenty-eight years there has
been a woman suffrage bill introduced
into the legislature regularly at every
session. At one time the majority against
the bill was ninty-eight, Notwithstanding
which it bobbed up again at the next ses-
sion as serenely as if the proposition were
hrand new.

BUTTERINE.
Plain Talk.


From the Cleveland Plaindealer.1
"There are hundreds and thousands
of people in the large cities and towns
who cannot afford to pay the prices de-
named for the best dairy and cream
cry buffers. Oleomargarine is in every
respect better and more healthful than
country store butter. Give the middle
class a chance to place on their tables
an artificial butter that looks like but
ter, that tastes better than most dairy
butter tastes, and is absolutely nutri-
tious and healthful. Let there be fair
ness in this matter, and a repeal of all
prohibitive laws that work injury and
injustice to large lumber of people. :"

superior methods under careful scien-
tifc supervision 1t is sold largely
Throughout the United States, and fas-
tidious housekeepers proclaim it the

Anecdote of Nelson.

very pretty anecdote is told OF Lord
Nelson, the hero of the battle of Trafal-
gar, Gays Harper's Young People. Besides
being a great commander and brave
man, Nelson was one of the truest of
friends and while he was as fond as all
other remarkable men of the praise which
good and heroic deeds merit, he knew so
little of jealousy that he always wished
others to have their need Of praise as well
as himself.
Presented to King George III. of Eng
land at one of the royal leVees, his ma
jesty congratulated the admiral upon his
tremendous victories, closing with a few
sympathetic remarks about the admiraTs
loss of his arm.
Nelson bowed his acknowledgements,
and then. turning about, presented his
friend and companion in many hot fights,
Capt. Berry.
1.-THE loss of my arm your majesty" be
said, lis not so great as you imagine, for
here is my right hand"

The DicyeIe in Politics.
From the Baltimore American (Rep.]

1t now appears that the bicycle played
not unimportant part lately in French
politics, since it is said the deprivation
of this sport. eXacted by offical etiquette
was one of the causes which dissatisfied
the wife of the late president with his po-
sition, and made her urge him to resign.
The report may not be true, but just such
slight matters have before this operated
as determining factors in grave matters
of state. Even the most formal official
ism cannot remain so impersonal as to-
tally TO exclude the activity of irrespon-
sive and petty influences.

The amount and quality of the patriot
ism that animates the average populist
politician may be judged from the action
of the populist North Carolina legisla>
ture in the matter Of the state printing
contract. Notwithstanding the populist
bidder for the contract was underbid by
$500, the contract was given him, despite
a law saying the lowest bidder should
have the work. 4 somewhat similar
printing job characterized the recent ses-
sion of the populistc South Carolina leg
islature. The average populist politician
is decidedly mot in it for his health" or
for the good health of his state, He is
after the "swag."

During the year 1885, only five American
vessels passed through the Suez canal, and
not one of that number was a merchant
ship. They were all war vessels or yachts
The number of ships of other nationalities
that passed through was 1852. and a con-
siderable proportion of the number were
British ships containing cargoes bound to
or from America. That is a pretty good
illustration of what republican 'portec-
tion" has done for the American merchant

The DUTY of business Men.
From the Philadelphia Record Deml.

1t is time for men who are immersed
in business to make it a part of their bus
mess to insist upon that circumspection
and honesty in the preservation of the
public credit which is the basis of private
credit What the politicians are afraid
or incompetent to do must be done in spite
Of them by the intelligent effort of think
ing and earnest men who are able to for
get craftsmanship at the call of patriotic
duty.

1t is an item of interest to note that the
mints of this country are turning out
some silver coins that are not worth their
face value in gold. The coins, however,
are not for this country. but for Ecua-
dor. They are called "sucres." and are
nominally worth 45.5 cents in our money,
while their actual value is less than %
cents. Half a million sucre pieces were
shipped from the Philadelphia mint day
or two ago. The government has a con-
tract to coin 2.5OO.O0O of thom. They are
slightly smaller than half-dollar piece.

is a prospect that the great lakes will be
connected by ship canal with the At

in the New York legislature which pro

plain with the Hudson river by ship
canal The canal Will also supply the towns
of the Hudson river valley with pure
water. The estimated cost of carrying
out the scheme is $15O,OOo,OoO. If the canal
should be built the water traffic between

The Atlanta exposition grounds are to
hold quite a city, the population of which
will be made up of all sorts and nation
alities of people. A large percentage of
the people of foreign birth, and a consid-
cradle proportion of the people of our
own country, see no harm in the moder-
ate use of beer and wines; therefore it
might not be a good idea to shut the bev-
erages out of the exposition grounds.
People will not go to the exposition to
drink They will make the drinking
merely incidental; and it is presumed
that the grounds will be sufficiently pc
Iced to take care OF those few who may
be so weak as to drink to excess. Beer
and wine were sold at the Chicago expo
sition without bad results.

The statement that Russia Will not per-
nit Japan to receive and hold foot OF
Chinese soil as part Of the war indem-
nifty. is probably ell bluff. The suggestion
that Germany viii object to the cession of
Formosa to Japan, because German mer-
chants and traders have large interests in
the islands, IS also buncombe. The chances
are that Japan will get what she wants
including Port Arthur and Formosa-and
that not one of the great powers will
make a movement to prevent it. Not that
the great powers are afraid Of Japan. but
they are afraid of each other-afraid of
disturbing the peace Of Europe" It would
be almost impossible for Russia or Ger
many to interfere without firing the train
of powder that would affect the Russo
French alliance, and the Triple alliance.
and nobody knows what else. 1t is possi-
BILE. and probable. that the determination
of Russia and France to act in union at
the opening of the Baltic sea canal, re-
ported in our dispatches yesterday. is for
the purpose OF inpressing upon the powers
the fact that they would act together in
war. if necessary.
