Northern Hypocrisy

Clark Howell says that the negro
plank in the Republican platform is
hypocrisy" intended 20 catch the
Northern negro voter. Iuasmuch as
the negro voter in most Northern
States 3 frequently said by 3Ir How
ell and his friends to be a negligible
minority, this would seem TO be
rather Improbable hypocrisy.
The sentiment Of the Northern peo-
pie regarding the negro is not special
affection for the negro, as some peo-
pie seem 10 think: il is merely a part
Of a general conviction that this Re
public rests on a foundation of equal
rights before the law, and that if any
citizens are deprived Of such rights
the country viii suffer.
The negroes in the North have
been given the right 20 vote, and so
have hordes of immigrants from Eu-
rope, whose intelligence and qualif-
cations for citizenship, i'm many cases.

those OF the negroes. The education

tain understanding States as a
means of self-protection against dan
gers quite as great as those Of the
South IN the days Of reconstruction.
but even this has been opposed by
many thinking people as a dangerous
Interference with manhood suffrage.
Had the South made its restriction
OF the negro vote merely educational.
nobody would have any criticism to
offer; but when this restriction is
aVOwedly merely q means for sup
pressing the negro vote, and is fol-
lowed by cutting down the school
system 10 the lower grades, as has
been done in Louisiana. It looks to
many honest Northern people suspi-
cious, and they are not hypocritical,
whether they are mistaken or not, in
regarding the educational quauiica-
ton as a subterfuge
The fact is that the manhood SUI

Captain Gunden stood on the

saved himself by swimming after the
vessel sank.
One officer launched a lifeboat,
filled it with as many passengers as
it could carry, and then quietly

make room for one more.

ors OF that lamentable tragedy were

was OF itself a shameful commentary
upon what happened at that frightful

Amid the melancholy which such a
sacrifice as that Of the Norge must
arouse. the heroism OF the men who
manned the ship shines bright
light The sorrow because such men
persisted is diffused with Joy that such
