Old Pharr Again.

The Lily White Republicans or
sugar planters had a ratification
meeting of McKinley's nomination
last Thursday night in New Orleans,
Speeches were made by Pharr and
others. Old Pharr was very blood
thirsty and swore he would take
possession of the Office the next time
he was elected at the peril of bis
life. 1t is amusing to e how the
Black Republicans view the kick o.
Pharr. The Republican speaking o.
the meeting says
Capt. Pharr presided, and talked
of "blood" aud the use Of hemp
provided the Democrats attempted
to again steal Louisiana. Such talk
means nothing. We elected Capt
Pharr governor, and heard him in
dulge 10 such buster before and af-
Ter the election, and saw him tuck
his tail" and allow the State to be
stolen by the Democrats. What he
and his managers failed to do fol
himself, it is fair to presume they
will to undertake in behalf of Nc.
Kinley and Hobart, 50 their fight

The Picayune in a long and lugu-
brious editorial last Sunday revamps
q lot Of ancient, mossbacked stock
lies of the gold bug hierarchy. One
of these is that silver wont circulate,
that the people wont use it. We
don't suppose it does circulate among
the gold bugs where there is so much
prejudice against it. But the silver
notes do, and all over the South the
silver dollar, half dollar and quarter
are in active circulation tho the
quantity is small. But how much
gold is there in circulation among
the people Will the Picayune
dare send out its reporters and in
terview the leading retail stores on
Canal, ROYAL, st. Charles and Camp
streets as TO how much gold they
take in daily over their counters ard
the ratio it bears to their gross sales
and publish the reports. We doubt
if it has the courage to do so. Why
gold not only circulates in but inf
nitely small quantities but it does SO
at an actual loss to the holder as is
proven by this statement from Times.

Singular Unanilnity.

There is something strikingly PEE
cnliar in the line Of argument pur-
sued by the gold bug press. So in
innate are their sympathies and ideas
that they apparently radiate from
some mysterious nerve centre, Moth
ing reminds US SO much OF the old
lottery campaign as the touching
uuanimity which prevails among
these sound money'shriekers. From
Boston to New Orleans. from Balti-
more to San Francisco, it is invaria-
bly, the same old tune with but slight
variations. Here are q couple Of
specimen bricks, the first from the
New York Advertiser, the other
from the New Orleans Picaynne:
THE hope Of the country lies in
the wage earners, who must be made
to see that striking down the stand
ard 10 which their wages m paid
will bear more heavily on them than
on any other class in the community.
This is indeed to be a Campaign OF
%education,' and it can not be begun
any too soon.
Politically, that hope will be
greatly advanced, if the Populists
nominate a separate ticket at Saint
Louis"
"Bnt those powerful States Of I'LL,
nois, Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin and
Micbigan-what of them? Il is not
easy to say. There is a vast deal Of
socialistic leayen in all the West.
The Eastern and Middle States can
be counted on for sound money; but
without the great tier of Middle
Western States mentioned above, the
socialists will sweep the country
The true bulwark Of sound money
and honest finances ought to be the
90, 100000 wage earners of the conn
try. Outside of New England and
the Middle States, the great bodies
of the work people are in Ohio. In
diana, Illinois and Michigan. They
can carry their States for sound
money j. they will. They can insure
a victory for gold If they will remain
firm in their determination to have
for their work the best dollars tina,
can be made.
But if they shall be infected by the
socialistic fury that demands q repu,
diation of debts and a vindictivt
war upon capital and enterprise
then all barriers are destroyed, aud
all the hoodgates will be open, and
the deluge Of Reputation, proscrip,
ton and revolution will roll on IN
checked, until the entire country
shall be submerged beneath the
waves"

WILL NOT 60 TO ENSLEN
They Say that Mr. Evans Can and Will Maintain
Coed Government-So Interesting Facts
Concerning Van HOSES "Come of."
To the State Herald

To the State Herald:
The fact has been disclosed that Mr..
VanHoose is no longer in the race for
the mayoralty of Birmingham, and we
infer from publications and street ru-
mors that he intends to convey his sup
port to the candidacy of Mr.. Enslen
without having advised the undersigned,
loyal supporters selected by himself, as q
campaign committee.
We presume Chat by reason of the
fact that we are colored) that there was
no necessity or reason of consultation;
that a mere intimation from him was
sufficient to throw our support to Mr..
Enslen This we most strenuously OBJ
ject to as a part and parcel Of the body
polite of the municipality of Birming-
ham. We, too, believe in reform and
good government, but are unable to see
how such reformation is to take place in
the event of Mr.. Enslen's election, know
ing circumstances, conditions and enVir-
onments that must of necessity surround
him. Upon the other hand, reform and
good government can and will be OBJ
tanned in the event of the election OF Mr..
Frank V. Evans, by reason of the fact
that all the influences needful, helpful
and hopeful for reform and good govern
ment are aiding and supporting the can
didacy of Mr.. Evans.
We again oppose the candidacy of Mr..
Enslen because certain white men, who
call themselves republicans, and believe
they are the owners of all the negroes
in the community, engineered and
brought about the conditions that forces
the fight between Messrs. Evans and
Enslen. We are unwilling to be parties
to this deal, because it forces racial lines
and racial antagonism that the under
signed have never and can never be par
ties thereto. Good government should
be confided to the hands of the good peo-
pie. Believing that Mr.. Evans best rep
resents them, we hope that he will pre-
side over the destiny of the welfare for
the next two years. If our efforts, en-
ergy and votes will bring about this con-
dition, it will be had.
In thus giving expression to our views
we have the sentiment of hundreds of
colored voters.
