Big Simmons,

On the. right hand side Of Wall
street, a little beyond the old Feder-
al hall, which stood where the pres
ent subtreasury building now is,
was the tavern of Big Simmons,
who 100 years ago was the biggest
man in New York in more senses
than one. He was the autocrat of
the bonifaces, and his house was
frequented by all the men of conse-
quence in the city, state and nation.
Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton,
Chancellor, Livingston and even
Washington were guests Of Big Sim
mons at one time or another and en-
joyed the warmth of his huge log
fire while they quaffed his nut
brown ale The majesty Of Big Sim
mons person was such that he
might be called the personifcation
of good eating, insomuch that no.
body ever saw him standing at his
own door without being smitten
with an irresistible propensity to
call in and partake of good cheer.
A biographer of Big Simmons,
writing reminiscently in the New
York Mirror of 1881, says: "A
proper biography Of Big Simmons
could be comprised in nothing less
than an imperial folio Of thickness
corresponding with the size Of his
person. If, as is practically demon
strated in the present age, the in
diligence Of the appetite lies at the
root of human happiness, of sure
ty Big Simmons was one of the
greatest benefactors of the human
race. But the greatest of men must
die, as did Xerxes and Big Sim
mons, and when this accident hap
pened to the latter it is affirmed that
his friends were obliged to cut away
the doo1posts to afford room for his
coffin to pass. New York Times.

Duluth has been recently
visited by lecturer who rep
resented herself as an ex-nun,
a runaway from some Roman
Catholic convent in England.
Perhaps she was, we know
nothing to the contrary. She
told a very nice ~ story about
life in the convent, etc. Per-
haps it was true and then,
again, perhaps it was not. We
only have her word for it.. On
the other hand we have thous-
ands of women: whose lives
are one long self-denial and
sacrifice;: their good work on
the battle field; in the hospital,
in the midst Of plague and
death, where others have not
dared to go, and in millions of
other ways, asa REPUTATION of
her statements. This ex-nun
also warned US against the
downfall of the republic
through the un-Americanism
of the Catholics. Now we are not
Catholics, and we think every
one has the right to talk out
in meetin'." We are firm be-
levers in free speech, a free
press, but we do ask the follow
ers of thi ex-nun if she has any,
who tremble for the future of
the American republic, to read
the names of the crew of the
Maine and see where they were
born-and what religion. Call

While we don't wish to gibe

must be noticed that many OF

One Reiter sued the WinOna
& St. Peter for personal injur-

that he had no case, because
the place where he went to
work under the foreman's or
ders was at the foot of a per-
pendicular sand bank and he
must have known it was dan
gerous, wherefore he went to
work at his own risk. That is
unquestionably good law. But

MUST WE BE SLAVES?

Our advice to the colored people
to abandon the Republican ticket
in the present campaign, and sup
port the candidates upon the
Liberty Union ticket, majority of
whom are the fusion candidates, is
meeting with the opposition we.
expected from the colored poIiti-
clans of the cowardly and selfish
sort. Like all politicians who have
no real principles or issue to assert,
they are resorting to falsehoods
and personal abuse, instead of ar
gument, to counteract the agitation
begun by the men and women who
are brave enough to put a ticket of
their own in the field. This brings
about a situation under which we
propose to make some comparisons
of the things for which these res
pectiye forces are contending. The
supporters of the independent
ticket are fighting for better treat
ment at the hands of all the politi-
clans and all the parties. They
charge that the Republican man
ayers in Colorado have persistently
and wrongfully denied the colored
people the political patronage to
which they are entitled; that for
the loyal and self-sacriicing sup
port of the colored people in the
last national campaign, they have
received nothing in the whole
state but four paltry janitorships;
that for far less service, white
FOUNDERS have been given fat
Offices, while traitors have been re-
warded for coming back into the
fold. We charge that the colored
voters of the state are being held
down, crowded back and made
political slaves by the Republican
managers. We contend that those
managers and their candidates de-
serve defeat at the hands of the
colored voters, and that such de.
feat will rebound to our credit and
political advancement on all sides.
Now, what are the claims of the
political slaves who oppose the in.
dependent movement, and for what
benefits are they contending2 They
cannot deny that our complaints
are true, for they have likewise
complained between campaigns,
and have themselves been kicked,
abused and insulted by the bosses
of the party. Why do they kiss
the hand that smiles fkemi They
profess that it is a crime to vote
for a Democrat; but dare they as
sert that we are inviting greater
evils than we now endure? I'm
possiblel Senator Wolcott claims
that the silver fusionists hide their
heads in the sand and refuse to see
that the skies are blue and that the
sun is shining; but what are the
colored people doing? With
mountain load of present ills upon
them, they are burying their brains
and all their political possibilities
in the graves of the past, and re-
fuse to see that new conditions and
new issues with new men confront
hem; that all parties want their
Eotes, and that some party will con-
,ede their just claims in return forl
heir votes. The sun that shines
or the negro will be just as bright
IS he makes it, and no brighter.
L he dare lift his head and look, |.
le may see the dawn Of q brighter
lay. If he prefer to be the coward I,
