TEMPEUANCK COLUMN. Edited ky Albany W, C. T, C WILli UAERISOy DO IT t The republican party ,!or years,haa main tained stoutly that, par excellence it U the friend of the nacro. It claims to have been the exclusive Instrument In breaking the hackle of the colored man and setting him free. It claims to have waged the war that carried the colored race from slavery to freedom. It claims on all occasions that It with great andjpatrle-tlc disinterestedness lifted up the negro from a state of degrad ed servitude to the plane of political equal ity with the whites. This party has, by Its conduct,lald claim to the negro vote because of the great obligation that race owes to It for doing this great, good thing for it. No mission or purpose of the republican party has been more strongly asserted than the one of establishing the perfect political equality of the negro with the while race. But has that party been faithful to the pledges which it has made to the negroes In consideration of the votes which that race gives the republican party ? The negro Is keenly alive to the fact that this pretend ed friend has not kept these pledges. Where has it elected a negro to office and thu( shown its sincerity In promoting hi politi cal equality. Neither time nor place can be pointed out But on the other hand scores of opportunities where this might have been done have been willfully neglect ed, aye, worse than neglected,opportunlties that the party has openly refused to em brace. Why this course on the part of re publicans i Simply, because all these pro fessions of Interest In the equality of the negro with the white race have been and are now Insincere. The republicans knew the negroes of the South would vote the republican ticket, and they were perfectly willing that they should hold the fflces in the South and dominate over the whites there, but they knew their people in the North was too Insincere to permit colored men to rule over the North, hence that party has uniformly refused to elect ne groes to office. But the time has now ar rived when the republican party can no longer put off a proper recognition of the services which the negro has rendered that party. Nothing short of a place In the cabinet would be a proper recognition. Will Harrison dolt? Will he place some ntelllgent negro In the cabinet ? We fr did that race frtjndke among republicans i so strong that he will not dare to do it. fje will scarcely be able to overcome this race prejudice sufficiently to enable him to do as much for the negro as President Cleve land has done. And this predicament of Harrison's Is directly traceable to the al most universal insincerity of republicans with regard to political equality .for the ne gro. The republicans would have political equality between the whites and blacks of the South,but never between the two races in the North. This accounts for the fact that so many intelligent negroes, both In the North and la the South,are leaving the republican party.and if, during the term of Harrison, there Is no change In this matter, then the negro will desert that party by the hundreds and thousands. The regular mesting'of the Union on Tues day last was one of anusnal interest, twenty five members being present A responsive Bible resdinj was conducted by Mrs. Over man, which was helpful to every one present. The executive committee reported that the payment due on the hall had been discharg ed, and a number of small bills settled, leav ing tho financial affairs of the Union in good shape exoeptiug the amount still unpaid upon tha hall. After the transaction of some other business, Mrs. Townsood, resigned her position as Tresident of the Union, she spoke of the deep regret she felt in severing her connection with the Union, to which she wss so warmly attached, she thanked the mem bers for the universal kindness and eonrtesy shown ber, and made some valuab!e sugges tions as to future work. 1 ler resignation was accepted and the following preamble and resolution passed, unanimously i We, aa momber of the Women's Chris tian Temperance Union of Albany, Oregon, deeply regret that oircumstancea have made it necessary for Mrt. Townsend to resign her office as l'retidont of our Union, and take up her residonce in another city, we therefore, tier this resolution in love and approval of the consecrated woman w ho has servvd us ss 1'resideut for the past 7 year. JleMolvtd, That we docply regret the Ions of our l'resideot, that our grateful thanks are due her for the successful mansKuient of all the affairs of our Union, recognising that to her nntiring sal we owe the place we have won among the Unions of the State, as the banner Union. We hereby tender her our most earnest wishes for prosperity, happiness and usefulness in the new home to which she goes, and committing her to the eare of the Master whom she so conscientiously aerveaTwe leave her in Uia hands. A ballot wss then taken for a new Presi dent, which resulted in the choice of Mrs. St. John, who is in every way worthy to fill the chair of her predecessor. Mrs. Towhssnd baa served tbe Union, as President for al. most seven years, and who ahall say ber ad ministration has not been a soocesitfut one.

On cheap cutlery the bill Is equally audaclous.as the following table wl I show : Present Proposed duty. duty table knives .... Costing 16 cents per dozen Costing 30 cents per dozen .-. . . ( Pocket knives .... Costing 18 cents per dozen. . . . Costing 31 cents per dozen. . . . Costing 48 cents per dozen . . . . Costing 80 cents per dozen.... Costing 100 cents per dozen.... Here again the discrimination is against the poos. Table knives costing $8 per dozen are now taxed 35 per cent The-bill raises the duty only to $ per cent. The same discrimination is made in respect of pocket knives ; the duly on four-blade knives, costing $7.20 per dozen, which is now 50 per cent, is raised only to 53 per cent. It Is to be hoped that the proposed rehearing before the committee will lye public.
