the payment of millions of dollars tt
negroes, who don't even pay poll tax
And yet you can gamble that they'll
contribute to any old funds that are
started to push the bill through Con.
gress."
In some sections the bill has been
taken seriously. The fact that it
would bring millions of dollars to
the South and make hundreds of old
negroes self.sustaining has made
business people believe that it is
worthy Of consideration.
Secretary Richardson, of the -Four
States immigration League, with
headquarters in New Orleans, has
sent out the following letter, copies
of which have been received in Char
lesion. 1t is addressed to commerci
al and industrial organizations:
The -Four States Immigration
League, representing the States
named above, WAS organized in New
Orleans January II and Is and elect
ed me secretary, and l feel it is my
duty to call your immediate attention
and ask for special action relative to
the bill introduced February 3 in the
United States Senate by Senator M.
A. Hanna granting pensions and
bounties to all OK slaves who were
freed by President Lincoln.
This bill provides that persons
over so years of age and less than
10, whether male Or female, shall re
ceive Il cash bounty of 800 and a
pension Of 80 per month; persons
between go and 70 years old, a boun
ty of $500 and pension Of $12 per
month; those over 70 years old,
bounty of $500 and pension of $l5
per month. The bill further pro
vides for the payment of the bounty
and pension to relative who may be
charged with the care of ex slaves.
The bill will make thousands of
the old colored people of the South
self-sustaining and will add several
millions Of dollars to the capital of
the South.
The commercial organizations of
the four States of Louisiana, Texas,
Mississippi and alabama have moth
ing whatever to do with the political
Significance of Senator Hanna's meas
ure: that is matter for the editorial
writer's and politicians.
This bill makes independent vast
number Of people in the four States
who are now dependent, and it will
add large amount of ready money
to each and every community in these
four States, and for that resaon I
take the liberty of presenting it to
the different bodies who are eligible
to membership in the -Four States
Immigration League for such action

HANNA'S BUBBLE PUNCTURBD.
scheme OF the Ohio Statesman to Pension
EX-SlayeS Warmly Condemned
In the House.

In general debate on a Bill in
the National House of Representa-
tives on Tuesday, the Hanna Bill to
pension ex-slaves was brought into
discussion. Mr. De Almond, Of Mise
souri,, spoke in sarcastic vein, but
the subject assumed serious phase
when Mr.. Richardson, of Tennessee,
stated that adventurous in the South
we're using the bill to impose on
Ignorant credulous negroes, and call
ed upon Mr.. Cannon to give assur-
ance that the passage of such
measure would not be contemplated.
This assurance Mr.. Cannon gave.
Mr.. DeArmond, of Missouri, de-
nominted the Bill recently introduce
cd by Senator Hanna to pension the
OK slaves Il "curious evidence Of the
prevailing trend of politics." which
was "more valuable az piece Of
political manoeuvering than as
piece of prospective. legislation"
The introducer Of the Bill, he seid,
announced that be was not candl.
date for the Presidency, but from
the same authority came the au-
nouncement that there we're no
trusts. The exact facts could, he
said, be balanced in the public MUD
after study of both statements.
The negro delegate, he said, was an
important factor in Republican
national conventions, and there was
nothing like making preparations in
good time. 1t was an interesting
game and those not concerned could
watch it with equanimity. 1t was
farce he said, but still farces had
their solemn aspects. And it was 40
sad to think Of the old negroes in
their cabins in the South giving up
their small earnings until the time
came when they would turn for relief
the to natural protectors-the white
people of the South (Oomorcratic
applause.)
MIR. Cannon, in reply, treated Mr..
DeArmond's remarks lightly, calling
attention to the fact that Senator
Hanna's Bill had been int.oduoed
"by request"
But MIR. Richardson, of Tennessee,
put different Wow Oh the matter.
He stated seriously tnat companies
were already being formed and cir
cul"rs being acnt ont to ignorant col
ored people by unscrupulous adven-
tnrers, and he thought both sides
should join in On assurance to them
not to invest their quarters and dimes
III this chimerical scheme.
Mr.. Cannon responded that all
should .understand, rich ard poor,
whito and black, cultured and ienor-
ant, that the Government promised
to all Il like equality before the law
and equality of opportunity, and un-
dor 1t each must work out his own
salvation.
Mr. DeArmond WAS not satisfied
with this statement, but asked for a
moro specific assurance, and in reply
MIR. Cannon stated with emphasis
that tho ignorant were being impos-
cd upon, they should be undeceived
that, in his judgement, no such
Bill could or would pass.
