It is unfortunately true, as Gov. Rus
sell once wrote. "The negroes generally
go with the rascals." 1t is because
their solidity puts premium on rascali-
ty that the issue of White Supremacy
is foremost. Unless the intelligent white
men unite, Jim Young, Pritchard AMI
Russell will carry the State to still low
er depths. The saving of the Common
wealth from the present disgrace is the
supreme issue before the people. All
other matters, however important, must
wait till honest and clean men are at
the helm.

BRYAN TO WILLIAMS.

The spirit of the Massachusetts Demo
cracy is admirable They are firm in the
faith, holding to the ancient landmarks
of true Democracy. They will not win,
for Massachusetts is a rockr:bbed Re-
publican State, but they will hold the
rudder true. The hope of the gold DEM
Gratis has been TO re-capture the National
convention by obtaining the delegations
from the New England and Middle
States. The action in Massachusetts and
Pennsylvania shows that the party is as
true in those States where it is in themin-
ority as well as where it is a majority
party. Mr.. Bryan's telegram to George
Fred Williams, the Democratic leader
and guLernatorial nominee of the Old
Bay State voices the sentiment of the
regular Democrats everywhere. The
Nebraskan telegraphed to Williams:
Accept congratulations upon your
nomination. Massachusetts Demo-
cracy has done nobly. The Ch:ca
go platform is being indicated by
events. The fight for financial indie
pendence win yet be won. The
trusts and government by injunction
will fall with the gold standard.
Your plank against retirement of
greenbacks was timely. Strength to
your aim and success to your bun
ner."

Starbuck, OF Philadelphia, this after

welsh wonder''in a % mile paced race
on the one third mile board track at
Willow Grove, by the narrow margin OF
six yards. 1t was one of the most ex-

here. Starbuck's time for the twenty
five miles was AZ minutes 1-5 seconds

but neither led by more than forty yards
at any time and the race was in doubt
to the finish.
Michael led during the first ten miles.
Starbuck was in front during the
eleventh and twelfth miles and Michael
,ed on the 18th. On the next mile Star
puck again assumed the lead and held
it until the 21st mile, when Michael took
command. From the 21st mile to the
finish it was a battle royal. On the
Zfth mile Starbuck forged ahead and
maintained the lead to the end, winning
by about six yards.
Both men rode in magnificent form and
caught their pacing teams in beautiful
style. Each man suffered somewhat in
the pacing, chains breaking frequently
on the big sextuplets. When these acc-
dents occurred the rear contestant would
follow his opponent and use him for
pace maker until he could catch one Of
his own teams.
The day was raw, and a stiff chilling
northeast wind blew across the track.
Notwithstanding this, however, over

GLAOS1CNES INDICTMENT.

Mr.. Gladstone has summed up the
status of affairs in Europe in four state
ments that tell of the acquiescence by
the powers in Turkeys growing power
and increasing cruelty. He says:
Firstly-A hundred thousand Armen-
ians have been slaughtered, with no Sc
curly against a repetition, and with
grea ter profit to the assassns.
econdly-Turkey is stronger than at
any time since the Crimean war.
Thirdly-Greece is weaker than at
any time since she became kingdom.
Fourthly.-All this is due to the Euro
pean concert. that is, the mutual hatred
and distrust of the powers.
AS long as Turkey owes large sums of
money to English and German bankers,
and meets the interest promptly. just so
long will the powerful forces of the
money kings protect the Sultan in his
slaughter of Armenians.
