The other day the New York Evening Post spoke of Memphis as a city where race-rioting has occurred in recent times, and Bishop Gailor indignantly protests. T made diligent inquiry" he writes to the editor, "to ascertain, if possible, upon what grounds this ref erence of your was based and I find that there are and have been no condi- tions in this city which would afford the slightest justification for such a slur upon our good name. For forty years the free negroes of Memphis have lived on perfectly friendly terms with the white people and there is no Northern city where colored men and women have a better or even so good a chance in every department of labor It is an injustice to all our people, white and black, and an unfair renec- tion upon very peace-loving and pro- gressive business community to suggest that we are the victims of race riots and lawless mobs. We have never had any such outburst of race antipathy, nor even the suggestion of one, and l cannot imagine where the absurd re- port originated"

4 STTR IN SPAIN,

Religion or irreligion, is making a stir in Spain, as well as in France Several of the Spanish bishops have been issuing aggressive pastoral letters in general condemnation of the anti clerical policy of the present Cabinet, and especially the recent circular of the minister of grace and justice, and the royal decree enforcing respect for civil marriages, which the Civil Code places on the same footing as religious mar riages. The archbishop of Zaragoza and the bishops of Baza, Tortosa, and Tuy have stigmatized civil marriage as barely legal concubinage, and the bish- op of Tuy, in very strong language, has denounced the conduct of the minister of grace and justice Count Roman ones, however, is determined appar- ontly, to stand up for the rights of su- promacy of the civil power against Vatican encroachments if his colleagues do not withdraw their support from him.
 The fate of the present Cabinet and the Liberal party is thought to be in- volved in this confct with the Vatican and the Church in Spain, and Spanish newspapers of all shades are renecting the interest which the question excites in political and court circles.

The Canadian government may follow the example set by the United States and create at Ottawa district similar to the District of Columbia. The Cana dian capital, unlike Washington, has its representatives in the federal and provincial parliaments, and conducts its municipal business by means of a city council, as other cities do. Some years ago the federal authorities show ed a paternal interest in the capital to the extent of taking over the parks system, and by the judicious exnendi- ture of s75o,OOO have much improved the appearance of the city by the construc- ton of driveways, etc. Out of this has grown the proposal to create a federal

p1rAsA1r SUNDAY AFTERNOONS


 There has been a Pleasant Sunday Afternoon Movement in New Haven, and it may not be quite dead yet, There is such movement in England, and it is a shining success. Beginning thirty one years ago in a Nonconformist chap el at West Bromwich, the movement has grown quietly, so quietly in fact, that few, perhaps, in this country have ever heard of it. Yet at the recent na- tional conference of the "P. s. A." in London ten federations, embracing all the leading cities of England. were represented by delegates from the $40 societies of the organization, which now includes an aggregate membership of 1SO,OOO, with some 10000 members of other societies closely affiliated with it. Its membership is chiefly to be found in the Free churches, although recently many members of the Established Church have proclaimed their sympa- thy with the movement, In general the chief object of the association is that indicated in its name, and il is mainly promoted by Sunday afternoon meet ings, at which interesting speakers who are inspired by the motto. Brief, Bright and Brotherly," talk on. subjects making for the moral and social ad- vancement of the working classes. The aim of the movement as defined by one of its members, is to give "a so- cial direction to religion and a religious inspiration to social progress, and it has already done much to raise the ideals of its members and to preserve harmony between religion and social as- spiration.
 We hope that the success of the movement in England will be encourag- ing to the New Haven movement

During period of over six months the customs employees at the various barriers of Paris saw two men pass be- fore their offices carrying a very fine funeral wreath. Naturally they never asked for duty on such an article as that The wreath contained nearly for ty quarts of alcohol. The smugglers took every precaution against discov- cry, never passing through the same barrier twice running, but the trick was discovered at last by an inquisittve officer.

THE ELECTION.
Nevada county has spoken and

Nevada county has spoken and we abide cheerfully by the re- suits of the election which We think was and honest and fair one, especially in our good town of Prescott.
 The Democratic ticket which was the victor had some excellent men on it, and they will make excellent public officers. We wish them success and happiness ho- ping that, for their own good, none of them will remain in oGi- ce too long and thereby become unfit for anything but politics.
 The way of the politician, like that of the transgresSor in the bible, is a hard one at best, es- pecially when he is over-sensitive and devoted to his family, and for this reason we congratulate those who have been defeated.

 chinery in their hands; they were well organized and had all of thei" forces hustling to beat the band; they had the prestige of being in and the advantage of two news papers until four weeks ago and one all of the time. And again,
 look at the returns. Out of a to- tai of poll tax payers in the coun-
 ty of 3264, only 2195 votes were cast forreprentatiye, leaving 1869
 poll tax payers who did not Vots.
 The Democratic cand dates had
 been busy ever since last winter. Compare the vote of last Monday with the vote for representative ten years ago, and you will see
 that Bush and Wren received more than a hundred more votes
 than were cast last Monday, and

THE ELECTION.

The election is over. On the face of the returns the Demo- crats are elected. We do not know whether the election was fair or unfair. The Popuiists had no rep resentation on the board of judg- es. They.had the opportunity to do wrong il they so desired. Ne have no means of knowing what they did.
 If any judge of election prac- tic q fraud, he will live to see the day that he will regret 1t. He may have helped some other man with his crime, but the time will come that he will learn that those very people whom he help ed will have no confidence in him. They will have no further use for him unless they want some more crimes committed. He will learn that they understand the doctrine If you steal for me, you will steal from me.
 We have no regrets for our course. We tried to give good ad- vise to our readers. We preached civic righteousness to the very pest of our ability.
 It is over. Let us have peace. Let us uphold the officers in the ] scharge of their duty hoping that they will make good officers.
 For the years to come let us try to unite all good, honest, white men in the interest of good gov ernment.
 The PICAYUNE will continue to goonin its career as before bring ing good cheer to it's readers. It will continue to do battle for civ ic righteousness. It will uphold Ian officers who 4o their duty and eriticise those who do not. twill try to give the news especially that which is elevating and en- couraging. It will not give the baseball news. It will from time 10 time discuss such questions as are of interest to the public, po- litical, and otherwise. Now is a good time to subscribe.

In the article published last week in the second edition of the Picayune, we stated that the let
 ter written by ]. M. Thomas and
 mailed out by H. B. Mckenzie
 was sworn to before J. $. Began,
 Notary Public. This was a mis- take so far as the swearing was concerned. It was not sworn to, but was certified to as being a true copy of the original. This mistake was made in the rush that was necessary in writing the answer and getting out the paper. Yet the mistake is hardly material. If the letter was a falsehood, as it was he only told a lie. whereas if it had been sworn to. ne would have sWo-n d lie. Whether he swore it or told it. and whether it was true or false, it was a very questionable trick. Delaughter had been the means of getting MT. Thomas the school at Boughton; he had sold him his goods at cash price on a credit. and Thomas now owes him about two hundred and thir- ty-six dollars for his bread, meat and clothes, and while Delaugh- ter is away from home Thomas stabs him in the back. It looks to us like ingratitude.
