had taken no action regarding the
Louisville agreement, and said there
were some things that he desired to
consider further. The opinion is still
general that with some notifications

bly, by the end of the week. Word was
sent to the Democratic members of the
legislature last night that they could
return for the purpose of attending the
funeral OF Governor Goebel and be in
no danger whatever from arrest by the
soldiers and being taken to London.

agreement by that time.

jollrnment being taken until tomorrow.

Stand by our Rights.

Mr.. Giles B. Jackson, an aftorney'at'
law, Of Richmond, Va, was In the city
last week en- business. He is The at
tOrney for the Constitutional Rights
Association of Virginia whose mission
is TO protect the rights of the colored
people in that state under the eonsn
tuition and 10 invoke the aid Of the
courts to impede the wholesale dis
qualification of she cOlored population
of the southern states. His idea Is to
have the highest court of the land to
pass upon the constitutionality OF the
Jim Crow Car Law enacte d by the legis'
latures Of the southern states, especial
ly that one in Virginia. He Is engaged
in raising funds for the purpose Of tax
ing this case to court and will very
shortly make an appeal TO the colOred
people of the District of Columbia to
Subscribe to fund. The colored people
Of the District will be much effected by
that law, since Virginia borders on the
District, and after the first OF July of
his year the best, most refined and
weal.hiest Of the colored people will be
compelled to ride in Jim Crow Cars at
all times when going South.

Kansas elec ed to the 5sth Congress,
The Hon. j. III. Miller by a handsome
maj arity aid 1T Is universally conceded
that he is one of lht b5st repTeseR tativ es
that the district has ever had. The re,
pubiicans OF his district have shown
splendid judgment in TenOminating
him by acclamatien. He is q con-
scientious, able and studious member,
always at his post, and working for
the right. He never fergets his friends,
and is always willing to assist them in
every way possible. He is among the
few OOngressmen who realize that he
is the servant of the people, and that 1t
Is his duty to obey and respect their
aishcs. Mr. Miller has made himself
very popular with his colleagues and
the people Of Washingt IN. His counsel
is eagerly sought by The leaders ef his
party, and his influence is widely felt
and respected. Mr.. Miller belongs TO the
sturdy Abraham Lincoln class Of re
publicans who cling steadfastly to the
time hOnOIed traditions of liberty and
human rights, and who are proving
themselves the truest friends the Negro
has IN this day and generation. In
these times OF race trOu oles, the Ne gro

hands of his white friends. Our desire
should be 10 retain all Of orr old friends
and make As many new ones as pos

take should we desert the friends and
allies who have sacrificed much, and
risked their livCs and fortunss for our
elevation and preservation. For the col.

enemy-the democratic party. There is
no question about-it the republican
party ia our staunch and tried cham
piOn. 1t has stood at all times for
morality and fraternity.
It Is but natural that in all organiza.
tions how ever noble, sometimes O black
sheep should obtain position of power
and influence, and, as matter OF fact,
Ihe republican party has suffered along
thIsline. These black sheep bave made
1t hard for the Negro, and sometimes it
has been diffieui: to see the difference
between the republican and the demo
cFat, the false prophets and defenders,
who prostitute principle to person al
prejudice, do not stand for the real
principles Of the republican party.
The highest type OF the honest re-
publicanism is exempIifed in thai noble
grand and patriotic gentleman, Hon.
]. nj. Miller. He stands as firmly on
the principles of the Republican party,
equal rights, freedom and justice as
did Lincoln Garrison and Sumner.
