AN ISSUE THAT WJE1 NOT DO.

Some days ago this iaper printed
an able editorial from he Baltimore
sun on the attempt Of lfgro agitators
TO suppress free speech in Northern
cities, as illustrated in he successful
attempt to prevent tht rendition of
''The Clansman" in Philadelphia and
the attempt to prevent Senator Till
mans speaking on III Race Prob
lem" in Chicago. It wa gratifying to
us to see that the s'un-ook the same
position that this paper has maintain
ed since. the negroes barred "The
Clansman" from PhilsleIphia. Be
low we print an sidmrabie editorial
from the Sun, which WITH more ability
and stronger argHmct enforces the
position this paper tnk With refer
cncc to Senator Morga ) plan TO make
the negro the oVersh;loWing issue in
the next campaign. The Sun says:
3Thc suggestion mde by the Hon.
John l. Morgan, OF Aiabama that
the negro should be made the issue
Of the next Presidential campaign. we
believe to be ilI-adv5ed and unWisc
MI. Morgan, in an inervicW with The
sun published on Iesday spoke in
favor of a plank in tt national Demo-
cratic platform Whih will force this
issue TO the front. ie is 50 much in
earnest for this poly that he would
favor the Withdraw Of Southern
State from the Nsional convention

Chicago the negro IS 50 numerous that

ohio and Indiana there comes news

that the south has u 10 is II %. pa
reut The only hold that ta, negro
has left in thc North is his vote III
certain States. II is so large in New
York. Pennsylvania. Ohio. Indiana aad
Illinois that in close elections the ae-
gro vote couTd change the balance.
The \orthen politician is still bidding
for that vote. But the people who are
not in politics are not troubling them
selves much about the negro They
no longer regard him as the ward Of
the nation. They no longer look upon
him as oppressed.
There is. we believe. at this pres
ent time a better feeling and greater
harmony between North and South
than ever was before from the admin
istration of Washington. There was
always division and bitterness upon
some subject until the slavery question
became acute and the hatred cngen-
dered by il eliminated in the Civil
War. In late years there has been q
closer social and business relation
than ever before. Thousands Of
Southerners 80 to the North to reside:
thousands of Northerners go South for
pleasure: millions of Northern capital
is invested in the South, and the diff
ferent Northern cities are actively
competing for Southern trade.
why Introduce an issue that will
set back the shadow on the dial?
There are plenty of important issues
to engage the attention Of the people
in the next campaign which are prac-
tical and timely The tariff must be
reformed and the shackles taken from
trade; the inland possessions must
have better government and the peo-
pie in the Far East whom we bought
and annexed should have laws under
which they can make a living and
prosper.
Suppose the South won on the race
issue-suppose a President was elect
ed committed to the proposition that
the Democratic party is a white mans
then? We have great
respect for senator Morgans ability. !
but in this matter he is clearly wrong.
His issue is bad one and would work

LOW RATES INCREASE REVENUE
Experience has shown that no rail

Experience has shown that no rail
road has suffered by reducing rail
road rates. When the Michigan Cen
trail charter was repealed and a two
cent rate was fixed by the Legislature
the company brought suit against the
State of Michigan for $4,000, ,0OG. By
the time the case got before the
courts the receipts already showed &
large increase in passenger earnings
Instead of losing by the repeal of 4
charter which gave it the right to
charge three cents a mile the Michi-
gan Central had actually benefited.
When the New Haven Railroad
Company reduced its passenger rates
to two cents a mile the officials esti-
mated that there would be a loss OF
about 100000 a year in gross re-
ceipts. Te New York World says
that the reduced rate which affects
nine-tenths of the system, has been
in operation several months, and in
stead of the predicted reduction there
is an increase in the gross earnings.
Lower fares have given the company
enough new business to more than
make good the lessened profit on each
fare. The World makes this comment:
''The recent reduction in fare on the
Pennsylvania were made in confident
business belief that there would be
more profit for the company in carry
ing people for less money. Other COM
panies are planning similar reduc-
tiOnS in passenger fares. Railroad
managers are coming to understand
the simple scientific principle thai
there is more mony in doing large
business with a small margin Of profit
on each transaction than in doing u
small business with a large margin OF
profit on each transaction
