Poll! lea seems to hnvo a firm grip on tho colored people of Chicago. Not even in a Presidential election has theru boon shown a inoro widespread lutorest. This is, of course, duo to tho fact that thoro nro throo Afro AmorlcnnH on tho llepubllcan ticket, and their auccosa will mean that n execute It, In tho ovent that the sol diers refused to betray their comrades, If. Indeed, thoy know who nro tho guilty ones, if guilty thcro nro any; wo aro not Informed on tho question of law In tho case, but wo doubt If thcro is any such law. However this may bo, up to latest accounts, tho soldiers havo refused to comply wltl tho order, If thoy aro able to do bo, which Is an open question, nnd tho troops had not been dishonorably dis charged. When President Roosovclt mndo his Southern tour somo months ago, on two occasions ho lnld stress upon tho lmportnnco of colored pcoplo helping tho ofneers of tho law to run down al Icgcdi crlmlnnls of tholn rnco; nnd now when n enso In point has como under his nuthority ho Becks to on forco what should bo In every instance tho voluntary act of tho Individual or Individuals. It may bo that tho mom- tiers of tho troops not concerned In tho fracas hnvo no information as to tho Identity of their comrades, or If thoy havo that It came to them in tho usual courso of camp gossip. The theory has gained ground of Into, that It Is tho business of tho whole Afro-Amorlcnn pcoplo to turn out In a given locality nnd help tho officers of tho law hunt down alleged criminals about whom thoy know noth Ing nnd with whose crlmlnnl nets thoy hnvo no sort of sympathy. TIiIb de mand upon tho colored pcoplo that they should do pollco duty without warrant In or of lnw Is not mndo upon nny other pcoplo In tho .country, and Is engaged In on n lnrgo scale by no othor pcoplo In tho country, except tho Southern whlto pcoplo, who hnvo by usurpation of tho nuthority and function of the pollco nnd tho courts In most crlmlnnl cnusos brought tho entlro system of crlmlnnl proccduro Into contomnt throughout nil of tho Southom States. This irresponsible conduct of the citizens, In disregard und contempt of tho pollco nnd tho courts, bognn soon nftor tho Wnr of tho Rebellion nnd culminated In tho overthrow of tho regular Stnto gov ornmontH nnd tho establishment of n sorlou of corrupt nnd vicious oligar chies In which n consldcrnblo element of tho citizenship has no standing whntovor In tho eatlmntlon of tho po llco or In tho administration of tho1 courts. Individuals tako crlmlnnl mat. tors Into their hands nB often ns thoy please, and tho pollco nnd tho courts rarely Intorforo with them. Thoy nro considered to bo n pollco force and courts nil unto themselves.
