The caption OF tho Foraker Amend

really were rhe cause of the intro
duction of This amendment which
proved "a veritable boomerang in that
it was Immediately endorsed by Sen
ator Bacon of Georgia and Senator
Tinman of South Carolina. This
was enough 20 cause the worst kind
.of apprehension in tho minds OF ev-
cry citizen Of color ga the land.
The rule down here is. "What Ben
Tiilman is for we are against" The
committee that waited on Senator
Foraker evidently meant well. but
from the calibre OF the men compos.
ing &c. we are surprised that they
were caught Boz that Dear trap" and
permitted themselves TO be placed
In the attitude of injuring the rights
of every travelling citizen of color
i'm the north by having the national
government by national legislation
recognize the right Of railroad com
panies TO separate passengers on ac-
count of race. color or previous con
dition of serviude.
The position OF Southern NEGROES
is that while they submit TO these
persistent and continuing exhibit
tions of race prejudice and continue
TO be subjected TO its advantages and
IT'S Inconvenience, they do so under
protest. Like a rubber ball. they Weld

The grand jury of the Hastings
Court of this city has inflicted all of
the election officials Of the First
Precinct OF Jefferson Ward. The
cause is that they could not explain
how sixty votes put into ballot
box on primary election day dwin-
died down 20 eighteen votes when
the polls were closed when a man
whom the judges did not want TO
see nominated got the surplus votes
in question
We know all about il. These
methods are the same tnat were used
10 rob the candidates Of color in
this city. The Negroes were disfran
chised and the assurances given that
with the elimination of the citizen
of color would come honest cleo
tions. We knew then and they
know now that they deceived tnem-
selves. The thief. whatever his col
or will steal from a white man when
there are no colored ones to rob ana
from a colored man when there are
no white men 20 rob.
We nave no tears to shed over the
occurrences. We find that men who
condoned the robbery of Negroes are
very much grieved over the robbery
OF white ones. The consoling fact
about it is that the machine is do
Ing its work and oft-times the rich
men are as much its victims as are
the poor ones. The agitation will
do good We hope and in the mean
time these sanctimonious mourners
can continue to do evil that good
may come.
