ment that Chairman HANNA has de-
clared that the ''lily-white" Republi-

not be recognized so long as the colored

check the white sugar-planters of

The Knights of Pythias recently in

Injunction is now pending before the

MUST BE RECOGNIZED.
The National Committee Enunciates A
Basic Principal of Republication.

New ORLEANS, September l2-Ex-
Governor Narmoth, since the Repub-
lican convention at St. Louis, has been
acting in harmony with the sugar
planters, or so-called Lily Whites. He
has been the principal barrier to har-
mony between the regular Republic
cans and the sugar-pIanters, insisting
on an exclusively white electoral tick
ct and complete ignoring OF the
brother in black.
The Ex-Governor is out now in a let
ter, in which, among other things, he
tells the planters they cannot hope for
recognition unless they accept Repub-
lican principles. This change of front
by Wnrmoth causes much speculation.
Captain Wimberly, the National Com
mitteeman for Louisiana, has insisted
that there was no way to harmony
except through recognition of the
colored men, and the acceptance in
good faith by the planters of regular
Republican principles. Governor War
moths letter is, therefore, construed
as complete surrender to Wimberly

This theory is happily and pointed
~ exploded in the following language
This is contrary TO the settled prin-
siple that while the Federal Govern
ment is one whose operation rs conhn-
ed to Ger ain subjects, it has as TO
those subjects all the attributes oil
sovereignty, and one OF these is always
and everywhere within the territory
of the States which compose it to sup
press and punish those who IN auywlse
interfere with the exercise OF its law
full powers. The fact that there are
within that territory other govern
ments exercising sovereignty over all
matters not so committed to it can
make no difference under oar double
form OF government the essential
principle of which is partition OF
powers to be exercised independently
over the same territory.
The above is unsnswerable. That
any question could be raised as 10 the

GEN. BUoKNER's DECLARATIONS

GEN. SIMON b. BUcKEER of Kentucky
in his speech accepting the presiden-
tial nomination of the National Demo-
cratic Convention at Indianapolis
seems to have been thoroughly In har-
mony with the position taken by At
torney General HARMON and President
CLEVELAND. He said:
The Democratic faith has ALWAYS
claimed that the United States Gov
eminent is supreme within the limits
OF the authority it has received from
the states and from the people; that
it has right to go wherever that flag
goes, and it is it's duty to enforce the
laws OF the land in accordance with
the powers conferred on it; yet the
Chicago convention would wipe virtu-
ally out of existence that Supreme
Court which interprets the law, for
getting that our ancestors in England
cOmbHtted for hundreds of years to OBJ
tain tribunal of justice which was
free from Executive control
And again:
''They would wipe it out of existence
and subject it to the control of party
leaders to carry out the dictates Of
the party; they would paralyze the
arm of the General Government, and
forbid it the power to protect the lives
and property OF its citizens. The con-
vention almost in terms placed a light
ed torch in the hands of the incendi-
airy. and urged the mob to proceed
without restraint to pillage and muir
der at their discretion" applause.
This is all that the American citizen
OF color has ever charged against these
same destroyers of the public peace.
1t seems strange that white men
cannot appreciate the fact that this
language made to apply to other citi-
zens and other lawless parties in the
West are equally applicable to the
murderous elements of the south.
Again We repeat General BUoKNER's

PEACEFUL PROSPECTS
Argentina Expects to Get Along Without Q
Fight

NEW YORK, April "a dispatch to
the Herald from Buenos Ayres says:
A member of the cabinet whose in
fluence is more than ordinarily marked
in the councils of the government, has
permitted an interview with him to be
published in the Diaro. He declares
that from present indications there is
no reason to believe that any rupture
will occur between this country and
Chile. The relations of the two govern
ments are at present satisfactory, al
though ther are matters of detail to be
discussed and settled before there will
be final arrangement in the boundary
question.
The state of trade here is at present
excellent, but the high prices asked for
cattle will prevent much expectation to
England, which at one time it was
thought would be extremely heavy.
The latest reports are to the effect that
the maize crop will be larger than that
of last year There is active inquiry for
wheat and flour for expectation to Bra
zl.
La Prenza advocates the extension of
trade and other relations with the
United States. The government will
extend every facility and aid to the
party of students from Princeton coll
lege who have come here on an explor-
ing expedition.
