parent among them that concealed
! discomfort is breaking out into voiced
disContentment. Their complaint IS,
that negro democrats who have been
given places, and those who failed to
get places were men, who were recon-
mended for places on account OF their
political prominence and services to
the democratic party. These men are
men of average intelligence, and they
are being compelled to recognize
that the heads of the party seeks to
ignore the claims of the negro demo-
Gratis. and when compelled to do SO,
that they give them the lowest and
meanest positions within their gift ;
keeping negro republicans in the best
places for no other reason, than that
they are willing to wait on them at
their houses, and be general utility
men. Those who have failed to get
appointments have been told that the
places are all filled by competent ne
groes. The negroes who compose
colored democracy, know tull well
the position they occupy IN the demo
cratic party. They are well aware
that in the coming Congressional night,
that he truly is the factor. hey say
that they should not be made to beg
for what others would demand, were
they in their places politically; that IS,
that negro republicans be reduced or
dismissed, and their places slven to
negro democrats. The feeling is
growing and something must be done
to stop it. | also desire to call your
attention to the flourlshing condition
of the club. We have membership
now of fifty-three, and all stand ready
to contribute one dollar month given
them, that they are TO be given the
political recognition which the posi-
ton to the party demands. The club IS
composed of intelligent Colored men,
who were in business for themselves at
their homes, or occupied good posi-,
tions. These men were prevailed
upon to accept places in Washington,
in order that their committees might
see the good intentions OF the partv,
when they find themselves occupying
the places which they do. They are
considerable disheartened and tempted
to resign their places and return TO
their homes, and try and regain what
they had sacrificed in order to accept
aborers nositions. make these state

CYRUS V. GATES, ESQ.
PROMINENTLY MENTIONED FOR THE
RECORDERSHIP.

Mr.. Gates has always been a
staunch party man aud attained
considerable reputation in the last
campaign as the Presid ut of the
Sound Money Club of the District.
1t was while serving in this ca
paClty that he was chosen as secoud
by Hon. Henry E. Davis, (the we'll
known Columbian Professor and
Washington lawyer, recently nomi-
mated by the President for the Of
fee of District Attorney in his de-
bate with the Hon. Stilson Hutch
lis at Convention Hall. In this
contest Mr.. Gates earned himself
much credit, and he was urged in
consequence to make tue fight for
the Recorder of Deeds in the Dis
trlct. This is most honorable
office, well worthy of any mans
best efforts He has consented to
make the fight, and will wage it
merrllly from now on
He is good republican and
young man worthy of consideration.
He has been strongly indorsed
by The Mckinney and HOBART In
terstate Club of this city, and
would no doubt make IA good Of

EDITOR, SECRETARY JOHN sHAY IN
DUSTPIAL SCHOOL AND MEMBER OF
THE CITY REPUBLICAN CON-
MITTEEI

1t is with pleasure that we present to
our readers this week, the portrait of
Nirginia's oldest colored editor, Mag
nus L Robinson, editor of The Alet-
aRdJTa Leader, which he has been edl-
ting for past seventeen years.
Mr.. Robinson is now candidate for
Collector of Port, at Alexandria, Va,
and better man could not be ap
pointed. He will undoubtedly fill this
position with credit to his race and
party. He is a staunch republican and
one that the present administration
should, and will likely recognize.
Magnus L. Robinson spent his time
and money battling for the moral, in
tellectual, industrial, and political i'm
prOvement of his people in the Sth
Virginia District. He is one of the
most modest colored leaders pu blic
life He is formost in everything that
pertains to the elevation of his people
in Virginia, and if justice is given
to the workers of the cOlored republi
cans of Virginia. Magnus L. Robin
son should be invited to take promi-
nent and lucrative position in State or
National or Federal patronage. Edi-
tor Robinson has been StaunCh sup
porter of President Mckinley and
Hon. Park Agnew, and the friends
that be, will earn the gratitude of the
Afro-American press and republicans
in general to provide lucrative posi-
ton for Virginia S pioneer editor-Mag-
nus l.. Robinson.

THE REVISION.

Conscientious and carefnl work has
characterized the conduct OF the legis.
l;itive committee III revising the statu.esa
and the work when issued will be ~
monument to its credit. The members
who We're delegated by their fefiews TO
perform this duty We're honored more
highly than they knew Fhe revision OF
1878 conferred lasting distinction upon
the able gentlemen who performed it,and
soWill it be in this case Tile work gives
many evidences of having been done ID a.
manner that cannot Tail TO. elicit YegS
general conmendation from, court and.
bar. The general public will of itself
have little knowledge OF tire work. The
average citizen goes to his lawyer for
legal advice, not to statutes. III, hgsy
ever, he went more freely to the latter
and less frequently to the formfr< he
might perhaps be Wiser. But even Lille.
layman can hardly fail to be impressed
with the merit Of the codfication and
revision that the legislature OF 81 has so
we'll executed The members OF the.
special committee took nothing for
granted. The gentlemen who prepared
the original draft of the work OF course
very greatly facilitated their labors, but,
as we stated on the floor Of the house by
u member of the committee, every phase
OF the work, every citation, every refer
ence, was carefully verified, In this way
the legislators on TINT committee, who
were really responsible for what tlHy
might report, were able to feel that thew
had executed theirs trust with II fidelity
that could never be- questioned. And
indeed such is the fact Their ltbors
were singularly well done and great v i'll
be their praise.
And 1t was vastly to.the credit OF the
senator's aud assemhlymen as a Whole
that they too insisted on a. thorough
understanding of exactly what the com
mittee has done. They would have been
derelict to duty had they consented to
come to the capitol in adjourned session
merely to ratifv III Il purely perfunctory
manner whatever report the committee
might choose 10 submit to them. Their
simple determination to know what they
were doing was notin the slightest de-
gree reflection upon the intelligence or
| integrity of the special committee but
only virtuous and lnanful assertion Of
right. The committee met this demand
in broad spirit, and though OF course
most anxious to clear up the whole
| troublesome matter us speedily as posi-
| BILE and get it out of the way definitely,
courted the fullest inquiry, displayed in
! finite patience i'll answering inquiries
and satisfy honest doubters, and finally
came out oftIe ordeal enjoying the en-
chanted respect of all the othermembers.
The enlightened course pursued by il
| happily obviated thenecessity ofanothel
recess and rendered it possible to not
only have short session but to please
all parties-AIadison Democrat.

In Justice to the Committee.

The statement copied from another
paper and republished by the Democrat
to the effect that the legislators III 1878
were given a very much better opportun-
the work of the revisers before being
called to pass uDon it, seems to have
been an error. AS a matter of fact, the
nresent revisors say that they followed
exactly the method Of procedure of their
predecessors Of twenty years ago. The
legislature at that time received copies
OF the revision of the acts of 1878 not
until they had returned i'll the summer
to ratify the work. Identically the same
thing happened this year, the
members getting the revisers' report as
soon as they reconvened early during
the present week The revisers declare
that there are no hobbies in their report
that they desire to defend; that what they
want above all else is for the Legislature
as a whole to obtain a full understand
ing of all parts of the.report and adopt
or reject whatever its Judgment may
dictate. The revisers, it is quite certain,
have been the victims to some extent OF
an unwarranted suspicion that they
were anxious to have their report
adopted without full consideration. An
unprecedented person cannot, however,
discuss the matter with members OF the
committee without becoming convinced
that they have worked zealously, faith
fully and intelligently to makea report,
all of whose features should fall entirely
within the limits OF flle authority under
which they proceeded and in harmony
with the highest wisdom of which they
were endowed. Madison Democrat.

LEGISLATURE ADJoURNs.

The adjourned session fthelegislature
to adopt or reject the report Of the com
mittee on revision, adjourned last Fri
day without date, after adopting the
committees report fully.
Senator D. e. Riordan, of this city
was chairman of this Important COM
mittee and has worked necessarily upon
the report since the winters adjourn
ment o. the legislature.
1t is gratifying to himself, to his con-
stituents, and friends that the report
was adopted with as few changes as
was made In another column we re-
print two articles which appeared Ill last
weeks Madison Democrat paper
which has heretofore kept pumping a
continual round of ridieule INTO the
ranks of the committee on revision. The
article shows bold correction OF the
papers error OF the past, and a complete
vindiction of the committee. This
change i'll the papers attitude all came
about after the committee gave to the
members of the Legislature i'll session,
the why's and wherelores OF each and
every change that was made by them.
Senator RiordaD's record is one that the
citizens OF this village and Villas county
should be particularly proud OF. The
Legislaturevoted each OF the members
of the committee $500 as 81 eompensa-
ton for their labors.
