THE pHILPINos AND NEGROES.

From the New York sun. Rep.
Southern negroes. who had enjoyed
the suffrage for 30 years under the Con-
stitutioll. are now deprived Of i and are
governed without their consent Nor
has this been done on the ground Of
th.ir ignorance. but solely ecailSe Of
their race and color. for white litter
acy is not excluded. What respect,
then. will the American people have FOR
Bryun'S professions Of devotion to the
principle Of the consent Of the governed
The Bryantr platform declares that TO
impose upon any people u government
Of force is to substitute the methods 0t
imperaliSm for those of republic.
What. except imperialism then is
the diSfranchisemrnt of the negroes II
violation Of the Constitution. The
right to sclfgovernment which the Con
stitution gave them 80 years ago has
heen taken from them by Bryan's fol
lowers. and they are compelled to sub
nit to government without their con
sent. Bryan'S long essay on Imperial
ism read yesterday is. therefore, really
M attack on his own followers and no
bod. else.

Several large cargoes of miners sup. plies have recently been landed at Val dez. The Christochina river strike has awakened much interest in that locali- ty and large quantities of general sup plies will be taken in over the snow in January and February.
 Much winter work will be done in the Atlin district, and there is to be more drifting than has ever before been at tempted. Gold Run for instance, one of the old river beds of Pine creek, is showing up we'll, and along that twen- ty-five tents and cabins are being built, each of which will have four or five tenants the winter through and all will be engaged in drifting.
