The Richmond. Va, DIsPArca pub
fishes the following information:
There is thought now to be e strong
probability of the Sixth Virginia Regi-
ment (colored) being mustered out of
the service.
This belief is more or less general
among those familiar with all the cir
cumstances. and Governor Tyler is
known TO share it. It is said that the
opposition of the Negroes to having
white officers appointed TO the places
made vscant by those Negroes who re-
signed when an examination to test
their competency was ordered will
have this result"
We have great confidence in Govern

GOV. TANNER REVOLUTIONARY.

We have entertained the kindliest
feelings towards Governor TANNER OF
Illinois, and have been 10th to believe
that he would in any manner reflect
upon or iniure the people with which
we are identified.
His action. however, in the matter OF
dealing with the colored laborers
brought from the state OF Alabama to
take the place OF the striking miners
is mystery TO US, so far "a proper
explanation OF it is concerned.
While we regret that these colored
men even went there, and had We been
consulted :shouid have advised other
wise, still, we canr ot.see where the su-
thority to keep them out rests.
In other words, he has undoubtedly
transcribed and set aside the law an
from the tenor of his remarks. ne il
not in consultation with the Attorney
General Of his state.
This comment was accustomed by re-
marks attributed to him, which are as
brutal as they are cruel. He is quoted
as saying at Madison, ILL.,, October 20
in public speech:
ST reiterate that I will not tolerate
this Wholesale importation of foreign
ers into Illinois. and il 1 hear that a
mob is to be brought into this State,
such as was taken into Vlrden, i care
not on what railroad it comes or for
whom, will meet it at the State line
and shoot it to pieces with Calling
guns"
This would be murder. The men,
whom he would blow out Of existence
have committed no crime against the
laws of the state of Illinois. He is
quoted further:
"When the United States government
found it necessary and deemed it just
TO forbid Importation of foreign labor
into this country, felt that was full
ly justified in the course took at Vir-
der. That trouble never would haze
occurred If the Negroes had not been
brought here to take the place % white
men,"
But the United States government
acted under laws previously passed by
the congress of the United States.
The legislature of Illinois has enact
ed no such measure, and the people
have granted no such authority to its
Governor. What is the explanation
Well, the disregard Of the constitu :
ton by the officials of the southern
states has caused like action in the
northern ones.
Still we risk the opinion that Gov
ernor J. HoeE TYLER would not have
violated his sworn oblig alton as reck-
lessly as has the Governor OF Illinois.
ooh, the pity OF itr

The Richmond, Va, Dispatch in its
issue of November ?. 1898 says:
Let the Negro be informed that he
will be protected in oil OF his rights,
but that tie whites mt an must be the
boss. Then, il he accepts the situa.
tion,' all will be well with him."
The above is "cool'' proposition.
The colored man who accepts it needs
to be bossed by a white man.
The colored people OF Mississippi
thought so do, but the periodical
exodus of dozens of them by the shot
gun and pulling hemp" route has I'M
deceived them and emphasized the fal.
sity OF any such a proposition.
We scout the idea OF mans right
to boss on account of his color rather
than by his ability.
We shall exercise our rights under
the Law as long as we live, and make
our appeal to the Eternal Judge when
we get there, if any infringement of
our inherent rights takes place on
this sice OF the mortal vineyard.
But. what's the use arguing with the
Dispatch? Ali Of its editors will be
dead soon, anyway. Let US have
peace, and plenty OF it.

Resolved, That we as soldiers Of

served by the side OF colored regi-

having lived for many years in the

LIEUTENANT UOLONEL OROX TON,
SAB

We have as yet met with no white
citizen who has commended the action
of observation-disclosures CRoxroN for his
scheme TO get rid OF the officers of the
Sixth Virginia Regiment.
1t is now known that an effort is 10
be made to put out all of the other
colored officers and to fill their places
with white officers from the regiments
now being mustered out. This posi-
ton is deprecated by the bess element
Of white people in this community.
AS the matter now stands white Of
ficers are on the same plane with the
coloIed ones excepting the case of
Major j. b. JOHNSON of this city, who
out ranks them all.
The Sixth Virginia Regiment volun-
teered with the understanding that it
was to be under their own officers.
When the STATE or natioral govern
ment violates that agreement, it should
be permitted to decide for itself wheth-
er Or not it Will continue in the SER
vics.
Lieutenant Colonel CRoXroN was vir-
tually an invalid when he was muster
ed into service, and if reports are to be
accredited, he has not been much else
since. 1t is plainly evident that his
sudden elevation to the position OF
LieuSenant-Colone has ''swelled" his
head and made him look down with
disdain upon his colored officers, and
want for white associates.
The proper thing to do is to bring
the necessary influence to bear upor
the War Department. in order that the
Sixth Virginia Regiment may be mus
tered out OF service. Let Lieutenant
Colonel CRoxroN cease to draw a sal
airy by resting in his tent and go t.
work with other civilians in legiti
mate endeavor to make an honest liv
ing.
: Gov. J. HoeE TYLER refused to re
3 move the colored officers because
would be in violation of the Four
. teenth Amendment to the Constitu
' ton OF the United States. which h
stood sworn not to violate but to SUP
port.
I Lieutenant-C Colonel CRoxToN, VIII
I WAS bound by the same sworn obligs

country belongs. the men who diseov-
ed It, who secured its indePe Dde nee
and who built il I'D are going to rule il,
and whenever and wherever the Negro
attempts TO take the reins of govern
ment out OF the hands OF the whites he
is going TO get himself into trouble"
SO this country belongs to the Anglo
Saxon race. or to the few. The Ger
mans are not Augo-Saxons the French
are not Anglo.Saxons; the Russians
are not Anglo-Saxons the Italians are
not Anglo-ssxons; the Austrians are
not ADglo-Saxons; the Africans are
not Anglo-Saxons, and the American
people who embrace all OF these races
are not Anglo Saxons. What are you
talking about then? Here IN Rich
