from Oswego, Kan, to Galveston, GAS

Some time ago number OF Prince
ton students assembled late at night
before the door OF the house that
shelters the cOnsecrated person OF the
Hon. Grover Cleveland and howled
for speech. The sleeping statesman,
reused perhaps from ambitious dreams
Of the impossible, appeared at win
dow clad in garments In which it Is
customary to Slumber. Checking the
inclination to review his administra-
tiOn, he announced that he was for
Princeton, first, last and all the time;
paid a graceful, if heavy, tribute to
the athletic proves Of the athletic
side of the university, and finally re-
tired. The. result is, says the New
York Sun, in telling the story. that
whenever two or three Princeton stu
dents are gathered together at the
time called the SHANK OF the evening"
by the festive, and late al night" by
the quiet and respectable, the crowd
Is always taken with wild desire to
20 round and call on Cleveland for
speech. This is quite irrespective of
the political views Of the celebratorS.
In fact, it is now standing joke, a
natural part Of lively time. As the
Hon. G. c. has not Dan Lamont or
Thurber to lOOOk after him, the situa-
ton is grave. He takes his young
friends seriously, though they look
on it all as good fun.

respondent Of the Kansas City Times,

he exchanged cordial greetings and at

"YeS, it is" admitted Leahy, still
unable to recall the name.

q1ired the stranger.
"Er-er well! Fine" said Leahy in
cOherently.

stranger.

But hOw'S the political situation

Everything Is Democratic. The
party is in excellent condition. We
will win in the next national campaign
beyond any question" The stranger
continued in this vein while Mr..
Leahy stood Speechless, now and then
making a mark upon tablet which
he held in his hand.
The interviewed then turned inter-
viewer and asked Leahy all sorts of
questions, keeping up the fire until a
Santa Fe depot car came down the
street. As the car stopped thestranger
waved his hand to Leahy, who stood
almost transfxed at the corner, and
said:
Goodbye; III see you again."
As the car sailed down Kansas ave.
nue. six blocks away from Leahy, he
exclaimed:

AN UNLAWFUL ARREST.

The arrest of Mrs. T. V. Haw-
kins, alleged to have been the re-
cipient of several hundred stolen
dollars from her husband, was not
only unjust, but unlawful, and
her counsel has good grounds for
civil action. Hawkins alleged in
his first interview, after he was
captured ithat Mr.. Collins, the dep
uty collector, was his confederate.
The entire police department and
district officials declared the state
ment to be false. The newly ap-
pointed chief Of the detective corps
h6oted at the idea of such a charge.
An indignation meeting was called
by the district officials expressing
their confidence in his honesty and
integrity; but, the moment the liar
and self-convicted thief asserted
that his wife had received several
hundred dollars, the negro detect
i've was at once dispatched to the
p or and helpless wife. She had
already been humiliated by the
scounderly action of her husband.
No one knew the pain this poor
woman suffered; no one knew her
agony when she had to leave her
little babe and the friends by whom
she was surrounded, a. the time
and GO to the detective headquar-
ters charged with having received
stolen money.
What fool ordered the arrest !!
What fool ordered the issuing OF
the warrant? If Mrs. Hawkins
received any money she had been
coerced by her husband, and wo-
Ii. an so placed, is not liable under
the law. Her counsel should not
have allowed her to give bonds,
neither should the court have held

had himself appointed to one OF

McLain's money he will be able to

tiers to vote for him. This in itself
is a libel which should be spurned
by all respectable colored voters.
1T should, ana doubtless will serve
to cement the colored voters more
closely and render them the means
of defeating the presumptuous de-
tenders of money-bag politics and
re-electing a man who while able to
contribute largely will not stoop to
attempt the prostitution of the suf-
fragist. The canvass which is now
open, is one which is to deter
mine whether ignorance shall
goyerr intelligence. whether po-
litical jugglery, intimidation and
prostitution shall be preferred to
honesty, fair dealing and untram
melled suffrage; whether the labor
er shall receive a fair days pay, in
good money for fair days work,
instead of poor pay i'll doubtful cur
reney for the same labor.
lit to determine whether the
law shall be supreme or whether
armed mobs and lynching bees
shall be allowed to run rampant.
In a word, the election is to deter
mine whether an Ohioan, whose
record for state fealty and party
loyalty, whose business capacity
and craftsmanship are beyond ques-
tion, shall be preferred to one whose
principal claims lay in his absence
from the state, the editorship of a
sensational newspaper and the
favorite of class of politicians
who have been and will continue to
be the enemy of the true interests
of the colored man and of doubtful
utility TO the state at large.

ALL FOOLS ARE NOT DEAD.
[From the Weekly News.l

A Club of Colored Democrats with
a good membership was organized al
Shrewsbury, 9TH ward, parish of Jeffer-
son, last night by MIR. G.. S. Washing
ton. the secretary of the State Auxili-
ary Committee of cOlored men,
Samuel Williams was elected pres y
dent. and delegates selected to attend
a conference of the leading colored
men of the parish to be held at Ken
ner, La. October 18th. A full list Of
the officers elected will be published
next week.
The above excerpt is from the
New Orleans, l. News
of September 4th. These negroes
must be either insane or have lost
their senses. The very moment
the President announced the name
of Hon. Henry Demas as naval Of
ficer at the port of New Orleans,
the white Democrats denounced the
President and Mr. Dem; s. The
+ ,rmer was denounced for appeints
Ing colored MAJ, and the later
was condemned because he is col
ored man. The New Orleans ne
groes must be fools. The more the
republican party does for the negro
the better he seems to love the
democratic party-or the party that
seems to repudiate him. There Is
nothing in the democratic party
for the colored man, and when he
leaves the republican party he dives
into sea of trouble.
What has the democratic party
done for the negro since reconstruc-
ton? Thousands of helpless col
ored men have been lynched in the
South either directly or indirectly
through the lnstrumentallty of the
democratic party. The sentiment
south against the colored man is
worse today than it was prior to
reconstruction. Let this negro
democratic club be pitched into the
sea. What fools these mortals be. "
The Washington bee., 1897-09-11

Why did not the detective office
arrest Mr.. Collins when Hawkins
alleged that he was his confederate
in his crime? Had it any more
right to dlsbelieve him guiltless
than it had to believe that Mrs.
Hawkins was the recipient of some
of the stolen money?
Will the chief of the detective
bureau explain this? Let it be
understood that the negro has
rights that the white man must
respect.
Both accused, white man and
a colored woman. The white man
is honored, the colored woman is
humiliated and arrested. Prof.
Langston, do your duty to your
people and the woman you repre-
sent. The arrest was unjust and
unlawful.

THE DUTY OF THE NEGRO
IN OHIO.

If there ever was time when the
colored voter of Ohio should show
exceptional loyalty to the cause of
republieanism, that time is
now at hand. There are many
principles involved. In the first
place, the question of actual cit
izenship in the state presents itself
in which loyalty to the state in all
its various phases is represented
by one leader and mere quasi-cit-
izenship is represented by the other.
Senator Hanna is decidedly the
former while Mr.. McLain is the
latter. On this point the position
of the colored voter should be un-
equivocal. He has found that his
best interests can be best subserved
in the selection of men to represent
him who are 0hioans all round and
who have a fair right to represent
Ohio civilization, pure and simple.
Mr.. McLain is cosmopolitan. at
least in so far as representing more
than one civilization is concerned
Moreover, these civilizations are
not consonant. Ohio believes in
fair play and a white mans chance
for all citizens. The city of Wash
ington is predominated by a senti-
ment which accords a white man. s
chance to white men and denies
to colored men any thing like a
fair show,
Mr.. McLain is a pure and simple
Washlngtonian,in this latter re-
spect. His position socially brings
him in contact with the element
which feels justified in ostracising
the colored man and we Gan expect
but little less than that he feels
toward us, as his associates do. On
the contrary, Senator Hanna is a
through and through Ohioan repre-
senting the most liberal sentiment
toward colored men in this coun-
try, and allying himself wholly
with Ohio interests and Ohio prin-
ciples. Senator Hanna has shown
his liberahty in the instance of con-
solidating the schools in Cleveland.
With a few others, he faced fear
full opposition and succeeded in Sc
curing glorious victory. And to-
day the hundreds of colored chill
Gren in Cleveland are enjoying the
benefits of a common school edu-
cation without suffering the humil-
iation of being told that they can
not attend the same schools with
the whites, because they are color
ed In the next place the Ohio
voter should be true to the r gular
party, because of the effort on the
part of the enemy to divide his
elective force. The factlonists are
striving to make it appear that a
wavering vote signifies powerful
vote. Put such nonsense is too
transparent to be noticed. The
truth is that the very fact that the
democrats are striving to split the
colored vote offers the very best
reason why it should not be split.
1t is the same old tactics which the
slave holder of Maryland used to
deter his slaves from crossing the
Potomac and fraternizing with the
Virginia slaves. The Virginia
slaves were not fit associates and
besides they were too near the yam
KEGS, who had horns, and who were
a very dangerous and scurvy set in
deed. The "balance of power"
idea is impracticable and out of
the question at this time, while
the personal magnetism" cry, if
worth noticing, is certainly in
favor of Senator Hsuna. 1t is limited
