A Co|ored Nominee
DR.. JONES NOMINATED.

Mr.. Editor:
Did you ever attend a genuine up
to-date fair-play Lincoln Republican
convention?
Such was held by the Progressive
Republicans Sept. 30th at First Bap-
tist church in which DR.. w. A. Jones
was nominated as candidate for rep
resentative OF the Eighteenth General
Assembly. The fair play shown was
indeed refreshing. There were no
colored delegates, which showed the
inactivity of the colored brethren
themselves. Mr. E. P. Costigan, chair
man, announced that the colored peo-
pie had recommended a man of their
race that was favorable to the COM
mittee and if there were any present
to present his cause he would ask the
indulgence of the convention there
on. Mr.. C. W. Buford stood up and
five minutes was allowed him to intro
Guce DR.. Jones to the convention. Bu-
ford being invited to take the plat
form amid great applause. The re-
markable reception given Buford as
he proceeded with his address made
one think of times of yore when ye
colored people were recognized as a
part of the Republican party.
A remarkable feature of the situa-
ton was Buford being colored and a
Democrat. A Mr. Harris, a delegate,
moved a point of order on the speak
er that he was making a political
speech instead of presenting his man,
DR.. Jones, which was promptly ruled
out of order by Chairman Costigan,
with cheers of go on. Go on

the needs of representation for labor.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, how much
more SO do we need representation
politically and economically, for the
reason that we are usually organized
out of the unions and are forced to &c

time changes in the cabinet are being
talked of. and it is now generally con-
coded that the Secretary of the Treas
ury will resign to take effect March 5,
and that the Presidents private Sec
rotary, Mr. Norton, will succeed him.
Mr.. Norton was Assistant Sec. etary
when he was appointed to his present
position, and being from Chicago. the

sentative in the cabinet.

Th Government Printing Office is
the largest office of the kind in the
world, and employs constantly over
four thousand persons, and during
the sessions of Congress this number
is materially increased, owing to the
extra work in getting out the Con-
gressional Record, and other rush
work. The proceedings of Congress
are taken by skilled stenographers,
who work in shifts of fifteen minutes,
and transcribe their notes SO rapidly
that at each change or shift they have
them written out in loDghapd ready
for the printer. In this way when
Congress adjourns for the day, the
days's proceedings are III the hands
of the Public Printer, and much of
the early part of the session already in
type ready for the Congressional Rec
ord, which is distributed early the
following morning. This great print

shifts of eight hours each, aud much

Is BOSSISM DONE FOR?

We hear it said that, no matter what
else comes of the elections this year,
the 'boss system is done for as an
American institution That will de-
pend. Bosses will continue in poll
tics so long, and only so long as the
people remain indifferent. When
work the people themselves should do
is neglected, bosses will step in and
do it in amanner to suit themselves.
That is the secret of the success and
power of the boss-he plants and
reaps while the rightful harvesters
are asleep or heedlessly idle, says the
Jersey Journal.
No one election can kill the boss
system. A dozen or forty elections
could not kill it. Only eternal vigil
ance on the part of voters will STAY it,
and keep it dead. Many boss has
been slain, as the public fondly hoped,
only to return to life as soon as the
people grew careless of their rights
and duties.
In the campaigns this year bossism
has been pilloried aud dedounced,
and in certain States the elections
will probably hinge on that Issue.
This is a good indication. It shows
that the people have been taking
stock of public affairs and are dispos-
ed to assume those civic responsible
ties which belong to them. But that
is all that it does show.
Merely hating the boss system
won't wipe it out any more than
hatred alone would wipe out the White
Plague. The people have got to act.
They must demand the legislation
they desire and insist upon getting it.
They must keep an eye on public Off
Gals and see that platform pledges
and campaign promises are kept or
that the dellnquents are rejected.
They must accustom themselves to
considering and discussing public
questions and not leave such matters
to the professional politicians.
Heretofore party platforms have
had almost no meaning for either can
didates or the public. The same old
planks have been repeated year after
year, and only under some unusual
stress would an occasional plank be
enacted into law. The bosses and
politicians were not to blame for this
slipshod condition. 1t was the peo-
pie who were at fault. They didn't
care. and why should the bosses
care? The business of the boss is
simply to manipulate politics for his
own interest and the interest of his
henchman. So long as the
people are satisfied to let him run
things in that fashion, he becomes a
fixture, not to say necessity

The Democrat Advertiser says:

The Democrat Advertiser says:
1.-THE election being over perhaps
our esteemed Republican contempor-
aries will place their free soup house
and other over-worked bogies in cold
storage for the year 20 come. Some
how or another, be the latter, the
same frightful aspect does not attach
to that free soup house as aforetime.
People have seen it on the Republi-
can canvass for SO long time that it's
hideousness has lost its power to
scare anybody. It is stock film and
very much on the bum from hard
service. Lay it away"
We can easily understand the de-
sire of the Advertiser that reference
to the Soup House be placed in cold
storage. The Soup House is an lnsti-
tuition that has fourished in this
country under Democratic admins
trations hence the antipathy of the
Advertiser to the mention thereof.
The Record however in Difference to
the sensitiveness of the Advertiser
will lay away the Soup House ques-
ton until such time as we get Dem
ocratic Tariff in operation, then of
course even the Democrat Advertiser
will, we presume, recognize the fact
that it will be up to the Record as IA

the day as it comes to us.
