Brer Whitney knows as well as the
rest of us why the Free Press sup
ports Judge Powers, and not only
that, but the Judge has answered
the argument years ago in advocat-
ing that six years was long enough
for one man in the office, and eight
years for an outside limit. The
Judge has already held the office two
years too many according to his
own honest judgment and but for
his position in the Pacific railroad
matter it is very doubtfulif he would
have been reelected the last election.

Vermont's Representatives in Con-
gress have always been men of abili-
ty, who have won honor and distinc-
ton, and it comes with rather poor
grace from the News to say that men
of this high character and ability
didn't count.
~
We took little trip out into the
country the other day, and in con-
versation with the gentlemen we
met there we found forty per cent. in
favor of Page, forty per cent. with
out preference and twenty per cent.
in favor of Foster. All agreed that
Powers was a good man, but no one
advocated his reelection, and none
of the other candidates were men
toned at all.
~
The above is a fair indication of
the sentiment of the people in regard
to the congressional candidacy, so
far as our personal knowledge ex-
tends. We should also add that all
of those who were for Foster for first
choice said that Page would be their
second choice, and those who had no
preference said that they supposed
Page would get the place, as he
seemed to have the lead. All this
would seem to show that the recent
statement of the Free Press that the
sentiment of the people favors Pow
ers was based on prediction rather
than actual knowledge, just as we
supposed.
"
Some people make peculiar and ex-
traordinary statements in contro-
verting arguments. Thus the Burl-
ington News, jf replying to our arti-
Gle in which we said that ex-Gov.
Pages well known ability would
enable him to command recognition
in the national hall of Representa-
tives, tells us that ability doesn't
count" Unfortunately there are too
many who have this notion, and
that is one reason why inferior men
often get the places that, by right,
belong to their betters Huntington

DEMOCRACY AND THE NEGRO

On another page OF todays Repub-
Iican appears telegraphic report OF
the State election in North Carolina
held on August lst. in which the con-
stitutional amendment disfranchisIng
100. 900 negro voters was adopted. The
telegraphic report ingenuously says,
the Negroes, as a general thing, re-
mained away from the polls That's
funny. Strange the Negroes should ap-
parently take no interest in an election
which meant so much TO them. But
there is light on the question, as vide
the following from the New York Mail
and Express OF July 20th:
The Democratic campaign in North
Carolina which has for its chief object
the adoption of a constitutional amend
ment to disfranchise something like
100000 negro voters, appears to have
reached its climax yesterday at the
great mass meeting in the town OF
Lumberton. The occasion was charac-
terized by the reappearance Of the no
torious Red Shirts" whose acts Of po-
litical intimidation disgraced the State
fifteen years ago. More than 1000 OF
these ruffians, heavily armed, mounted
on horseback and accompanied with
Calling gun. attended yesterdays gath
ering. and thousands of women and
children also dressed in red adorned the
proceedings with their presence. The
meaning of ii all was that the better
element" of the white population IS
fully resolved to get rid of the negro
vote. and that the colored man who
goes to the polls at the forthcoming
gubernatorial election will do so at his
peril. In the light of this boastful
Democratic conspiracy against negro
suffrage the Bryanite howl against Re
publican imperialism" is little short
of an insult to public common sense.
No vulgar despot ever attempted a
more monstrous, act of imperialism
than that which the North Carolina
Democrats have now undertaken in
their avowed determination to rob the
negro of the ballot and reduce him &C
a state of political serfdom."
And this Acknowledgement of the
| Negro in North Carolina is the sort )i
treatment the Democratic party would
bestow upon the natives of Hawaii if
it had the<power

AMERICAN SHIPS
ARE uN0BTAINARIE

american ships cannot be had for
love or money. and owing TO the Boer
,rouble. English vessels are very scarce.
We have now FIVE first-class cargo car
riers on the line, the Strathgyle. Thy
"a. Belgian King. Carlisle City and
Buerga. Our business has increased so
rapidly, however, that these are now
wholly inadequate. We have an agent
in London now. attempting to charter
vessels, but owing TO the different wars
he is meeting with very little success.
This was the statement made by \.
H. Butler, the president of the Califor-
MIA and Oriental Steamship Company
whose vessels ply between San Fran
cisco. San Diego, Honolulu, japanese
and Chinese ports.
No" continued Mr.. Butler, these
steamers do not carry any passengers
except in the steerage.
I'VE have quite extensive steerage
accommodations. In fact almost every
trip we bring over from 500 to 700 peo-
Pile Being freight vessels, they are, oi
course, a trifie slow. calling at Honolu-
only about once a month. 1t was our
intention to put on four first-class pas
senger vessels this summer, but the
Chinese question upset all our plans
indefinitely.
.At this time American steamers are
out of the question. American yards
are now overrun with work, and an
order for four first-class steamers could
not be filled for two years at the least
AS for chartering. American vessels
that is an impossibility. They are now
all transports or army freighters N
route to the Philippines or China. No
sir. British steamers are the only one:
which can be chartered now, and owing
to the present troubles in China we are
experiencing great difficulty in charter
ing them.
I'VE hope inside of another year tt
have a passenger line running over the
present route But if these present diff
ficulties continue our plans may fall
through again. The new laws in -e-
gard to the British steamers,etc., also
hamper us to considerable extent
but / expect the American Congress
will change the laws, or at least be 9
little more lenient to the British lines
when they see how business is ham
oered. At least we can trust to luci

Tillman and Liberty

From the New Ork Mall ana Express.
Just why Senator Tillman of South
Carolina was chosen to read the Kan
sas City platform to the convention
which afterward adopted it will prob
ably never be generally known. He is
certainly not more richly gifted than
are his party brethren with charms OF
person and manner or with the subtle
art of the orator. Possibly he was put
forward as an exponent of the particu-
lar species of liberty which the Demo
cratic party is anxious to extend to
the dark skinned races whose political
destinies have recently passed under
American control. If that is the expla-
nation. the fitness of the selection is
undeniable. The first sentence OF the
platform which Mr. Tillman read with
such fine theatrical effect is as follows:
I'VE, the representatives of the Dem
ocratic party of the United States, as
sembled in convention on the anniver-
sary of the adoption of the Declaration
of independence. do reaffirm our faith
in that immortal proclamation. Of the
inalienable rights of man. and our al
legiance to the constitution, framed in
harmony Herewith by the fathers OF
the republic
As a declaration of political ethics
nothing could be finer than that. II
sounds like the utterance of high mind
ed patriots who believe in giving force
and effect to the principle that all men
are created equal. But when considered
in the light of Mr.. Tillman's own rec
ord and the record OF the State which
he represents in the Senate il becomes
a revolving. nauseous insult to the very
spirit of free institutions. 1t was only
last winter that Senator Tillman, when
,taunted by MrS SSpooner with the dis
graceful suppression OF negro suffrage
in South Carolina. brazenly admitted
the charge. declared that he was proud
OF it. and upheld the infamy in these
words:
We took the government away. We
stuffed ballot boxes We shot them.
We are not ashamed of it The Sen
ator from Wisconsin would have done
the same thing. / see it in his eye right
now. He would have done il With that
system-force, tissue ballots, etc--we
got tired ourselves"
This unblushing confession Of crime
against the ballot has never been de-
MED by the State which Mr.. Tiilman
represents. IL has never been con-
demned by the party TO which he be-
longs. nor has IL provoked word OF
censure from the candidate whom he
helped to nominate at Kansas City.
The silen; acquiescence of the Demo-
cratic party in the infamous destruction
of civil liberty and free ballot N
South Carolina made il particularly ap-
propriate that Mr. Tillman should be
chosen TO submit the Bryan platform 10
the Bryan convention. But to be con
sistent the resolution should have been
written in the blood OF the negroes
whom Tillman and his associates have
slain for having dared TO exercise mn
litical right guaranteed to them BY the
Constitution which Bryan's champions
pretead to adore.
